 Grab your coat and get your hat, Leave your worries on the doorstep, Just direct your feet To the sunny side of the street. Can't you hear a pitter-pat? And that happy tune is your step; Life can be so sweet On the sunny side of the street. I used to walk in the shade With my blues on parade, But now I'm not afraid This rover crossed over. If I never have a cent, I'll be rich as Rockefeller; Gold dust at my feet On the sunny side of the street. |

Good morning starshine
The earth says hello
You twinkle above us
We twinkle below
Good morning starshine
You lead us along
My love and me as we sing
Our early morning singing song
Gliddy glub gloopy
Nibby nabby noopy
La la la lo lo
Sabba sibby sabba
Nooby abba nabba
Le le lo lo
Tooby ooby walla
Nooby abba naba
Early morning singing song

No, not all old fogeys like poetry...f'rinstance I can't tolerate it! Sorry, i've just never been a huge fan. I can sit through it, but not without a few stiff drinks... There's not enough schlivo or metaxa in the world to make me sit through a poetry reading. You must be a lightweight, Serbski! |

Forgive me friend if I insulted you in any way. Usually I like to mess around, especially on this thread.
But honestly anything that rhymes or is even remotely associated with poetry just doesn't sit well with me. I just can't bring myself to appreciate it. Although I really respect people who can.
Anyway, they were actually really thought provoking once I sat down and gave them a try.
George, are you still going to Jerusalem?

How can a person live without singing? I've managed to live for quite a few years now without singing...  I used to enjoy music quite a bit---music was always around me, in the car, my office, home, etc. And then I went to seminary. I've never been able to enjoy music since my classes with a certain chant professor. He's completely altered my life, and folks who knew me then and know me now say not for the better. I just shrug my shoulders and know it must be somehow a gift from God to have music become an annoyance to me. I need music to serve as background noise if I'm in a quiet area and needing to get creative work done, but that's the only role music has in my life now. Thank you Holy Cross! |

I've heard you sing Deuchland uber alis (sp?), which is the only way that I was able to identify it when the current occupant of what used to be your room began to sing it (I knew you'd be proud knowing that the college freshman that's in your room now knows the song...) |

You know, I've forgotten that I even used to know that. I can say it's been a looong time since I've sung that. But, even more surprising, is that the current occupant of my room also knows that song from my youth. What is it about that room, I wonder? |

Can you elaborate on this? I have never heard of them -- is this an organization? (Since I plan to pursue my teacher certification in K-12 library science so that I can work in school libraries, this could affect me some day soon) The Skies of Rohan is the Idaho and Montana Tolkien Society. One of the things that they do is distribute copies of Tolkien works to secondary school libraries in those states and some other places. Their list includes one in Denmark and another in New York. Many of the schools listed are in small towns (which compared to the East is most of the towns in Montana I'll admit. ) so the librarians likely don't have lots of money for new acquisitions. So the gift of books is a Very Good Thing. Here is their link: http://www.skiesofrohan.com/index.htmlEbor |

I do like a 50/50 mix of Black Cavendish & Vanilla... while sipping a bit of Benedictine...what say you ? james Two roads I like to travel: 1) Start me off with a shot of either Cuervo Black Medallion, Sauza Hornitos/3G or Patrón (or, heck, all three on a feast day!) while puffing on a Cohiba. Finish off with a Dos Equis Amber. 2) Start me off with a shot of Gentlemen's Jack or Jim Beam Black Label (again, those two boys get along great together) while enjoying an H Upmann or a Montecristo. Finish off w/either a Shiner Bock or a Lone Star. |

Here's my favourite: Start out with a triple (or more) of Makers Mark, neat, don't ruin it by mixing crap into it. Drink, repeat until bottle is empty....seep. And this one works for all seasons and all times of day. |
