This is an (approximately) hour you won't forget. "How Would the Earth Would Be Without a Moon" I'd say that older kids could see this, ones who understand time lines, but not the little ones. They might worry. Heck, you might, too, if you are into Karma. I am both a grown up and a Karma believer, and so it scares the living Bejeebers out of ME!
Saturday Nine
Walk This Way
Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!
Editor's Note: Is that what this is called? Go grab the side bar 9er's button link and join up! T'is Fun!
Saturday 9: Walk This Way
(recommended by In the Company of Me)
If you're not familiar with today's song, you can hear it here.
1) This song is about a young man who takes advantage of his "big chance at a high school dance." Share a memory from your high school years.
I literally did not go to a single high school dance. I was a total nerd. I'd like to say right from the getgo that I loved Aerosmith's music. I'm so glad they got together!
2) Lead singer Steven Tyler is the son of a working mother (mom Susan was a secretary). Did your mother work outside the home?
My mother worked all the time on her little farm. That's how she fed her family. I never really appreciated just how hard my mother worked for us. She was a dynamo!
3) Onstage, Tyler takes colorful scarves from around his neck and drapes them over the microphone. Do you accessorize your outfits with scarves and belts? Or do you prefer to keep things simple?
I love the look of scarves, but they have to be light weight and non-scratchy. I used to wear belts, especially with my jeans, but now, there is NO way I going to wear a belt. It feels oppressive.
4) Tyler confessed to having a massive crush on Jennifer Lopez, his fellow judge on American Idol. Do you think a coworker has ever had a crush on you?
No, but I had Lots of Puppy Love and GooGoo eyes for some of my male TAs and Profs. Isn't this a cute little Angel of a Dog??? I want one!
5) Aerosmith lead guitarist Joe Perry says seeing The Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964 inspired him to go into music. How did you end up in your chosen profession?
I really don't have a profession. I used to have a business selling at craft shows and similar venues but that doesn't qualify. A Professional Wannabe?
6) Perry's hobby, breeding horses, is very lucrative. What are your hobbies?
Well, I wish I could have afforded Perry's Hobby! I have Hobby Envy now. See what you did? Anyway, mine are limited to reading, gardening, and knitting. I do a little sewing now and again. Also, I'm loving to spend time growing things from seeds and sprouts, and maybe making cherry cordial. Sadly, I can not drink it anymore, but was it ever good while it lasted!
7) Aerosmith performed before their biggest-ever TV audience when they played the Super Bowl halftime show in 2001. Are you a football fan? If so, do you prefer college football or the NFL? What teams do you root for?
I used to love the 9'ers, and the Chargers, and the Bruins, but I'm so out of that now.
8) Now that we're into summer, the days are longer. When is the last time you watched the sun set?
Just a few days ago.....
9) What time did you go to sleep last night?
Almost 1 am. I was reading a novelette about Appalachian Folk. Lordy, how I love ebooks now that I've come into the possession of a tablet droid. Is that right? An off brand? hehe

I love it that you take the time to appreciate the sunset. Atta Girl!
ReplyDeleteIt's like a free show every night. It can drop your blood pressure 20 points just looking at it!
DeleteI am with you on scratchy and oppressive clothing. I like things loose and soft.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of getting a lot of knit silk and just making bags to live in that have a neck hole and short sleeves. lol I can always airbrush them!
DeleteI still have a lot of scarves from when I worked and of course knit ones for winter. I should do something with them.
ReplyDeleteScarves are so nice to dress up a plain dress. I only wear dresses occasionally but like to wear scarves with them. I don't usually wear a knitted scarf unless the night air when we camp is below 60. hehe.. Californian, you know.
DeleteGreat sunset. Your comment about hobby envy made me laugh.
ReplyDeleteThank you, We broke our trip there this time and got in just in time to see it. I stood in the Bounder doorway and took several pictures as the sky darkened. Horses are just amazing. If I could have a life where I got to ride horses all the time, I just might come back here. I love them. Ponies, too.
DeleteFarming is a lot of hard work. Even gardening is hard if you ask me
ReplyDeleteMy daughter is a farmer, like her grandmother. She sells at Farmer's Markets, well, two of them do, and she keeps several gardens where she grows seedlings and sells off her excess. She works so hard, but loves her work! Gardening is deemed adequate exercise for seniors, and I plan to get my hands in the dirt again, DH better believe it.
DeleteI don't think I've ever had a cherry cordial. Shirley Temple is probably the closest I've ever come, lol... Maybe I'll have to try one.
ReplyDeleteCherry Cordial is an old folk remedy, not the Chocolate Covered Cherries that are called that now. I put a recipe resources up somewhere above here. Shirley Temple's with a shot of brandy would be pretty good, don't you think? hehe
