Happy Hour

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

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

Patrick wins pole for Nationwide race

Not a NASCAR fan. I admit it freely. I was as a younger man in HS, OK. Cale Yarborough in the 21 Ford Torino with the Wood Brothers in the pit. No restrictor plates, cookie cutter bodies and all that parity. Racing was R and D back when.
But this one must be getting to the hard core fans who also consider themselves "experts." I like it when those folks blow gaskets!

.....A day after being involved in a frightening accident racing in a Sprint Cup Series qualifying race, Patrick answered with the day’s best lap of 182.741 mph in the JR Motorsports No. 7 Go.Daddy.com Chevrolet, becoming only the second woman to ever win a NASCAR national series pole position and the first since Shawna Robinson in 1994.....
