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

Army-Navy more than just football

Army-Navy Game.

To all my friends who drool and pontificate about "their" Razorbacks, Tigers, Trojans, Ducks, Buffaloes, Longhorns, etc. Take a moment. These two teams along with The Air Force Academy Falcons are Our Teams, America's Teams. The Dallas Cowboys are not America's Team. They have a long way to go in that respect.


It is the only major college football game that I will watch. It has a historic tradition as well as all the things relayed in the article. Ramifications far beyond what an agent can do for some of those molly coddled athletes we see on the news every day.

So hit the link and read it for yourself. 

More Than Just Football.

I'll watch, as well. But the point is moot... Air Force wins the CinC's Trophy. Yet AGAIN.

Today's game is for Second Place.;-)
