Happy Hour

"IF A LIFETIME CAN BE LIKENED TO A DAY, THEN THIS IS HAPPY HOUR!"

Mother, Mother Ocean

Mother, Mother Ocean, I've heard you call
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
You've seen it all, you've seen it all
Watched the men who rode you, switch from sails to steam
In your belly you hold the treasures, few have ever seen
Most of 'em dream, most of 'em dream
Yes, I am a pirate, two hundred year's too late
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder
I'm an over-forty victim of fate
Arriving too late, arriving too late

Yoda

"Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is."
―Yoda, to Luke Skywalker

Counted the Stars

Counted the stars on the 4th of July
Wishing we were rockets bursting in the sky
Talking about redemption and leaving things behind
I have these pictures and I keep these photographs
To remind me of a time
These pictures and these photographs
Let me know I'm doin' fine
We used to be so happy once upon a time
Once upon a time
But the sun sank west of the Mendocino County Line
And the sun sank west of the Mendocino County Line

Staind MTV Unplugged - It's Been Awhile



Always liked this song. And this is the uncut version. Be forewarned. It kind of fit on that day, September 4, 2009, when a CT Scan found a Mass on my left kidney.

That was a nice run o' tunes that went before, Glenn. I particularly like the "Unplugged" bits. A lot of my purist friends don't like the acoustic, slower tempo treatments a lot of artists give their tunes in these sessions but I LOVE 'em. Thanks for these.

I prefer the unplugged over the electric. Especially in the venue that is used .

We use this one on our retreats. Listened to it OFTEN when we were in Hawai'i, as it was on Kait's mix.

Almost posted 18 Again a couple weeks back...thought about watching "Oh God" when it was on tv...will wait on it now.

I will not go down and tell my children I didn't have the courage, the conviction, the commitment or the character to fight for this country...Don't go home and let your children down~~ LTC Allen West
