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

"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."

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

My friend Dutch has a request

My co worker and friend Walter "Dutch" Thurman has this to pass on.

Can you help my old friend Dawn's son, a deaf Boy Scout, win or at least compete against better organized and funded scouts, sell some popcorn?
>Please help my son Dallas reach his goal! He's earning money to pay for TWO summer camps next summer. Please help him buy purchasing yummy popcorn! Dallas Edens Troop 228 Inland Northwest Council http://www.trails-end.com/ <
Tell her Walter sent you.....

 An old friend of hers blew up on her and chastised her and her son for belonging to Boys Scouts because of their stance on gays and has lost out on some sales because of it....do you think you can pass along this info to some of your blogger mates and generate some sales for this kid? Hard enough to be deaf, harder still to have his mom's friend causing his sales to dip for his beliefs...

There you go.............
Do what you can for this kid, please.
ORPO says Thanks.

The Scout locator on the Trails End website uses first name, last initial and zip code.

I came up with two Dallas Es, one with a parent Dawn, in 83815.

Is this the correct Scout?
