Hello on this Tuesday Morning !! this is no-man's land,,, or No - person land if you need to be that PC.,... I just don't think that every word that ends in M A N ,,, needs to be reassigned to - "Person",,,, any way,,,, a Week away from the NCAA basketball championships,,, and a Week from the Start of another Baseball season... with Both NY teams having question marks of their own, and I am thinkin that the RAYS have a good chance to repeat in the AL East as either the BoSox or the Yankess do in winning it back,,, and that is saying a lot from a staunch Yankee fan !!

So,,, for today it's Lyle Lovett and 2 more CD's you need to add to your collection.,... "Joshua Judges Ruth" and "Live in Texas" ,,,

You can check out Lyle's Web site for more Music and Videos,,,

and then "Nobody Knows me......................"

THE LUNCH of Champions !! NOT .,,, Doh !

OK,, so this is not the healthiest Lunch I ever had !! I did add a Yogart to it ,,,yea,,, like that's gonna make all the difference !!

Friday's special - Wednesday's Meat with Thursday's gravy !

Greetings,,,, well its good to be back,,, I have been two days without a workstation due to a hard drive Failure, where I lost all my files ! It will probably take me a week to recover,, and then some counseling sessions to get over the trauma of the event !

Hope Springs Eternal: Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

As this is the 1st day of Spring,,,, let's look back at a novel in 4 parts by Stephen King,,, titled "Different Seasons" - A Winter's tale ... The Breathing Method is the only novella in Different Seasons for which no movie adaptation exists, as Hope Spring's Eternal - Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption, Summer of Corruption - Apt Pupil. and Fall from Innocence - Stand by Me, have all been filmed...

Shawshank is one of my favorite movies,,,

so it's hard to take a favorite Scene from it,,, but here are a few ...

Let's start at the end,,,,, I Hope..



Andy Escapes............


Andy plays an Aria.....


Red's Parole Board ...

Hey ,,that's,,,that's.... I love Creedence

and Tim Finnegan's wake,,,, you can sing along !! If you only have time for one,,, listen to this one !!

Monday Insanity

Greetings,,, so two topics for this afternoon.....

A) why don't people feel comfortable looking at each other in the gym ?? I go to the PLANET FITNESS at all hours, and the phenomenon is the same,,, No one evens looks up when you walk down the row of Steppers or Treadmills,,,, And when I am there at 4AM - its even worse cause its not like there are 50 people around ,, there are 4 of US ! Saying good-morning, or hello,.. cannot be that hard,,,, please.,

B) on the wall of the 3rd stall in the Men's room at the North end of the Building is the following.............
"Jesus is in control".,.. and the " in control " "part has been crossed thru,,, and someone else wrote,,, "has been RA'd " (that's IBM-ease for Fired/laidoff) then another person added,,,,

"BUT he LIVES and is still in control",,,, and then another person added,,,

"and what ? he asked you to write about it on the men's room Wall ??!!"

Now that is prophetic.....................

Centerfield

as we get closer to the REAL baseball season,,, I give you John Fogerty , and Keith Urban,,,

with Centerfield.... this one for "The Mick" !

Let's talk Del Amitri !!

ROLL TO ME,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, sort of a crazy video



and LAST to KNOW
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0ZlRd4RSLw

The Ceeee Deeee Beee

The old man didn't care about people anyway
All he cared about was his money.
He'd stuff it all down in Mason jars and bury it all around
But on certain nights if the moon was right
He'd dig it up out of the ground.
He'd pour it all out on the floor of his shack
And run his fingers through it.
Old Lucias Clay was a greedy old man
And that's all there ever was to it.

I was fortunate enough to see these bands here in Poughkeepsie back in the Early 70's , CDB, Marshall Tucker, Atlanta Rhythm Section. I bet that the popularity of this song lifted the Spirits of all those folks in Band that played a Flute,,Here is the Marshall Tucker Band -

and that thunderous thumb of Toy Caldwell on " Can't you See"

Somewhat Crazy .vs Full Goose Bozo...

Ok,, so there are degrees of insanity,,,, we all talk to ourselves,,, or at least I do.. am I that far away from having a Fantasy Friend,,, or seeing Dead People., - Dementia is ,, maybe ,, just a heightened state of awareness,,, because YOU don't see something , or hear other voices,,, does that mean that they are not there,,,

If you believe scripture,,, they are many instance of something , or someone appearing to us,,, or a certain one of us,,, and I don't mean the Virgin Mary appearing on a piece of TOAST ! Did Noah not hear God's voice ,,, just because his neighbor couldn't hear it ??? Joan of Arc not visited by God because no one else saw it ?? and they killed her for it ! now this has taken a turn , has it not... sorry about getting into the religious aspect of things,,,,,

Perhaps ,, Crazy people are just that ,,, things existing in the mind that are not there in "real" life,,,, ie,,, "A BEAUTIFUL MIND " - John Nash

So it must be more difficult to live with the knowledge that what you see and hear are not real,,, and that they are only as Harry says... "It was the knowledge that she was the only thing that was not ,,, in his head"

enjoy .....Shooting Star.....


Comfortably Numb.....


Crazy Life,,,,,

Free Bowl of Soup day.,,,,,

Saturday is alright......

Good morning !! for those away from the NorthEast US it is to be a lovely day here,,, near 60 and sunny,,,, finally maybe seeing some better weather,,, anyway,,, TODAY marks a FIRST for this BLOG,,the Video that i posted is from MY collection,,,by that I mean I cut it from the DVD, and edited it and Converted it to the form that I was able to Upload,,, I have more of these,, Most POTC,,, or Hunt for Red October,,,, that I will share later...

It is the end of of a Northern Exposure episode,,,, March 1, 1993 called Northern Lights,,....
Holling comes out of his Hibernation,,, Maurice befriends Cicley's 1st homeless man,, after he finds out he is a fellow Marine,,, Chris , initially cannot get his creative juices going,, eventually comes up with what you see in this video,... it is after alll a Time in Alaska when daylight shines for less than an hour,,,,Darkness reigns over the land,,,,

Notable Quote,.,,,

Bernard on the air: “Continuous unremitting darkness has been known to send some people into an emotional tailspin, so the management here at KBHR radio suggests locking away the firearms. The desire to stick that 45 between the teeth can get pretty strong at times, so why invite temptation.”

So,,, enjoy the Lights,,, and Enya,,,, its "Edubae",,, if you were wondering,,,,

Welcome to FRIDAY !! YOU made it !!!

And for your listening pleasure,,,,

John was a Bee, a Warrior,,, he owned a Greek Diner, he Performed with and as Joe Cocker, he and his Brother , Elwood, had a Blues Band,,, he lived in 1941, He was from the Second City, he impersonated many, and he was most famously, Senator John Blutarsky,, unfortunately he died at age 33 in 1982 on March 5th ...
