SCREAMING IT….Can TEXAS PLEASE just stop killing innocent people?

https://innocenceproject.org/cases/melissa-lucio/

This woman is innocent.  Please…just Read the article and ask yourself why Texas is still pushing to kill this woman.  Monstrous! 

Sunday Komeekz!

  

Now THAT.... THAT is a very bad fortune indeed!  😂 

Three on Thursday: Warning... a mini anti war rant.

1. The week has been going by so fast that it is scary!

2. At least we aren't at war with anyone else, YET, although the back door to Putin's power just opened long enough to drop a deal through it, to control even more wealth than the man has ever known.. Guess who opened it?  So, is this what the Twin Oligarchs spoke of when they had the little private talk on board Putin's Ship in Alaska?  

3. Meanwhile, I can see a "Freight Train" roaring through that door from here.  One full Oil or maybe munitions.  ....from the Department of Defense... er.... sorry, the Department of War?  Does The V.P. know what the Secretary of War is up to?

I'm a Quaker, AND..... I REAAAALLLLY don't like what's happening. 

 

Wordless Wednesday .... shhhhhhh 😶

Music Monday: Hallelluja, Leanord Cohen's arrangement sung by K.D. Lang.

I can't post videos anymore that I know of...... I've tried everything.   

But I hope you WILL go and find it, and listen to it.   It is the most gorgeous song, and it's sung by one of the most powerful, beautiful voices I've ever heard.  This one is truly worth the effort.

There isn't any way I can link it either.  So this is just a prompt you will have to follow though with at YouTube.  I hope this singer, singing this song, moves you right to depths your soul. 

This is the last of Music Monday unless I can find a work-around for the problem that has arisen in this over-monetized New World Order.  

If you copy: Hallelujah , Leonard Cohen's arrangement sung by K.D. Lang, and paste it in a new window, you should find it at Duck Duck Go or at YouTube without a problem. 

But I hope you WILL go and find it, and listen to it.   It is the most gorgeous song, and it's sung by one of the most powerful, beautiful voice, ever.  This one is truly worth it.

Sunday Komiks. heeheehee

 

Some Cuteness on a Saturday

Saturday 9 will be along shortly … slow day… 🥸

Saturday 9: Big Girls Don't Cry (1962) Boy did I ever mess this one up!

Saturday 9: Big Girls Don't Cry (1962)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) When is the last time you shed a tear? 

Last night- I'm a big cry baby for melodramas. Plus, I even shed tears when I'm laughing.

2) Lyricist/producer Bob Crewe recalled he got the idea for this song while watching a movie on TV. "Big girls don't cry" was a line from the 1956 film Slightly Scarlet. Give us a quote from another movie.

"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya; you killed my father... prepare to die."  That's from "Princess Bride".  I love that movie!

3) This inspiration came to Bob during the late night/early morning hours. What time of day are you most productive?  

Apparently when I am asleep.

4) Bob wrote another song for the Four Seasons, "Silence Is Golden." The band was not happy with their recording and never released it as a single. Three years later, The Tremeloes had an international Top 10 hit with "Silence Is Golden." Tell us about a decision you wish you could do over. 

But that would be telling!  Anyway, it would be staying in this house I am in now. 

 If I'd have known we were going to be here for the rest of our lives, I would have kept on looking.  

It turned out that it's only three blocks from the city I really wanted to live in, to keep the two older girls in the same school district.  

I was 6 months preggers, but we couldn't stay where we were.  My little girl, allergic to horses, could hardly breathe and the "neighbor" was keeping a horse and foal in her postage stamp back yard.  We had to move.   

5) Before he got his big break, Four Seasons lead singer Frankie Valli worked as barber. Do you have a hair care appointment scheduled? 

I am almost 84 and the last time I had a hair appointment was when I was in my 20's.  I've always cut my own hair from that time forward.  My hair is "stealth curly", and no one else can cut it.  If I don't pull it back and tame it, there is no living with it. 

 

This is the straight version of it.

Lordie!  was I really ever this young?   

Me at 83

6) Oscar-winning actor Joe Pesci has a connection to the band. He was a young chum of Four Seasons founding member Tommy DeVito. By the time DeVito left the group and found himself overwhelmed by gambling debts, Pesci was a star. He helped his friend out, making Tommy his personal assistant and getting him cameo roles in films. Tell us about someone who has been there for you in tough times.  My friend Vicky.  She took me in when my drunken paternal unit threw me out of the house. Vicky helped me get "a job that paid the rent" and put me up at her three gal apartment until I could find my own place, which happened really quickly because everyone helped me.  Friends have been the best People in this life.....friends, my hubby, and my girls.

  

7) The Four Seasons disbanded in 1977 after 17 years together. The original bandmates reunited onstage 1990 when they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It was an important night for them professionally and personally, too, as it gave the old friends a chance to reconnect and mend fences. Is there anyone from your past you wish you could reach out to?

My Mother. She had done her best for me, in life, but she was married to our father, who was a rotten man.  My sibs and I all wished that she had lived, and that he had finally succumbed to his vices. I would have sought her, in main part, because she was so easy to talk to and to love.  

8) Another hit song from 1962 was "I Left My Heart in San Francisco." Tony Bennett compares San Francisco to Rome, Paris and Manhattan. Have you visited any of those four cities? I've only been to Frisco.  It's got to be one of the ten greatest cities in the U.S. if not the world.

 
9) Random question – You're home all alone. Do you close the door when you use the bathroom? Doesn't everyone? lol  

I guess it would be guys who don't.  Hubby does it sometimes and I know my little brother didn't but likely his wife had a stab at curbing that little male tendency.
