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

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

Habs Lose, Arghhhhhhhhhhhh! Down Three to One.

OK. Stick the fork in 'em. The Flyers are running rampant over my boys from Montreal. But it was a good run. Being down three to one to a team on a roll like the Broad Street Bullies is not a good spot to be. I have to go with a Flyers-Blackhawks Final this year. Original Six team and a Second Six team in the final. Good historical value there.

Hawks and Sharks about to get under way. I smell sweep. Too bad about the Habs... I was pullin' for 'em.

Flyers are good, but the Hawks are better.

How about 280 pound Dustin Byfuglien? Scoring the go ahead goal to put the Hawks in the Finals, try moving that big pile of meat out of the way, that guy can block out the sun.

Chief, don't get your hopes up against this Blackhawks squad, dispatching a good Sharks team 4-0.

Flyers (if they can shake the Canadians) are in for some trouble.

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
