All kinds of weather alerts for today and tomorrow. Yesterday, the pups and I walked 5 miles. It was 57 degrees and sunny. Only wore a vest to have something to tuck Spartacus into at times. Today was 42 with wind gusts - supposed to have snow t... Read more

Sea Cruise
Saturday, January 17, 2015      7 comments

I was looking up songs by the Murmaids, and found "Sea Cruise" - can't verify the lyrics are these, but here's the version Herman's Hermits sang in 1988. Frankie Ford first recorded it in 1959. This one will get your toes tapping! ... Read more
I'm So Excited
Friday, January 16, 2015      9 comments

From 1982 comes the Pointer Sisters and I'm So Excited. I looked at the exercise song of the day (also by the Pointer Sisters), and, I don't know, the lyrics sounded more suggestive ... and, yeah, I know these are a bit suggestive, also. ... Read more

Still freezing (OK, I know it's relative - we had wind chills to high 20's low 30's - nothing like minus whatever a lot of places are getting. But, I'm still cold). Yesterday was drizzly, windy, and generally mucky. Didn't drag the pups out - I ... Read more

Don't know about you guys, but lately I've been wearing my old jeans (that are loose now) over a second pair of liner pants. Plus, 2 layers of shirts! Brrr! Neil Diamond and Richard Bennett wrote this, Neil had a hit with it in 1978 M... Read more

A Reason to Believe
Friday, January 09, 2015      8 comments

Written and recorded by Tim Harden in 1965, most of us remember Rod Stewart's version from 1971. If I listened long enough to you, I'd find a way to believe that it's all true. Knowing that you lied, straight-faced, while I cried, ... Read more

Timothy
Wednesday, January 07, 2015      5 comments

This one has nothing to do with the season. It's from 1971, a one-hit wonder by the Bouys. It seems to tell the tale of 3 trapped miners ... only 2 came out ... The record company tried to say Timothy was a mule, but no one believed that for a ... Read more
