Your Move/All Good People

Well, it seems that my blog here has gotten a little notice of late. :) My friends, I know that I say very little in a long way, but bear with me. I like to talk. :) :) :)

Ahhh. but what to talk about?

Well, the easiest thing right now is something akin to a brain teaser - again, maybe I can do this on a regular basis. Anyways, this one goes like this:

The answer I'm looking for is the band/artist's name and the name of the album. The list is a complete song list of that album. :) Willing to try? Here goes:

1. Brown Sugar
2. Sway
3. Wild Horses
4. Can't You Hear Me Knocking
5. You Gotta Move
6. Bitch
7. I Got the Blues
8. Sister Morphine
9. Dead Flowers
10 Moonlight Mile

The best of luck to all.

Fox on the Run

OK. Maybe these will be better if I try to keep the posts shorter. The fun stuff is at the end, anyway.

Anyways, to explain a little, about a week back I actually got contacted by another blogger - I am not alone!!!! :) It got me to thinking a little bit about blogging my own stuff on a more regular basis. Well, I'm not good at regular basis things when I'm not getting paid for it, so I spent a little time thinking. . .and I went into a few other blogs to see wtf works. :) (cheater, cheater) :)

I see a lot of lists, music lists. I like music. I like music lists. I also like to play games. Soooo. . . . .
Below is a music list that has a common theme. Take a look and you will see it's a pretty easy theme to pick out.

1. Horse with no Name - America
2. Fox on the Run - Sweet
3. Mockingbird - Simon/Taylor
4. Bat out of Hell - Meatloaf
5. Diamond Dogs - David Bowie
6. Crocodile Rock - Elton John
7. Fly Like an Eagle - Steve Miller Band
8. Rock Lobster - B-52s
9. Great White Buffalo - Nugent
10. Year of the Cat - Al Stewart

OK, ok, so I know some of you are thinking, "Whoa, 70s stuff, hey, cool!!", but that isn't quite what I'm looking for here. No, a lot of the stuff I know is 70s stuff. :) Now, if you said, "Hmmmm, looks like a critter list, to me" I'd tell ya BINGO! You win a whole e-prize. It's like that. Easy, huh? :)

The e-prize, in case you are wondering, is that of a sense of satisfaction in solving a silly, minor mind-teaser. :) Enjoy!!

Well, now that I've put my best paw in my mouth, I will try to send up one of these lists weekly. Or thereabouts. Maybe. Kinda depends. :) If nobody gets it untill the next posting, I'll provide the answer. Oh, and I almost forgot to tell you, a good working knowledge of the song lyrics involved :) :) :) is very helpful.

Anyways, with no further ado. . . . .

1. Closing Time - Semisonic
2. Sunshine on My Shoulder - John Denver
3. Surfin' Bird - The Trashmen
4. Summertime Blues - The Who
5. Mr. Tambourine Man - The Byrds
6. 1999 - Prince
7. Quinn the Eskimo - Manfred Man's Earth Band
8. All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix
9. Knockin' on Heaven's Door - GunsNRoses
10. Tangled up in Blue - Bob Dylan

Best of luck :) :) :)

Sunday Boody Sunday

LOOK OUT!! She's comin' down fast!! Yes, she is, yes she is. . . .
- Lennon/Mccartney

Well, well, well, who'd a thunk. Today, while walking downtown to get some cash from an atm so I could eat, I almost got hit by a car. I was crossing the street after the light turned to go to my bank; and, of course, I had my portable CD player on, listening to some Beatles. Next thing I know, I hear a car horn going off, which stopped me for a moment in the crosswalk. I turned towards the intersection and, whoa baby, there's a car running the red light coming right for me. Like a whitetaile i froze. Then, amid 2 cars squealing their brakes, another car crossing with the light went in front of the oncoming car and got hit. The poor lady had her kid in there, but there was nobody hurt, only a little damage to both cars. Still, it could have been worse. I finished crossing the street and got my money out of the bank; when I returned, the intersection was still a mess, with neither car moving and both drivers on their sell phones. I first determined that the car that got hit's driver and son were OK, then the oncoming driver. Everyone then parked alongside the street, out of traffic, and we waited for the cops. About that time, we were joined by another driver who was behind the hit car. After some time, the police arrived and took our stories.

The kicker here is, you know, guess what song I was listening to on the CD? You got it, Helter Skelter. Life can be soooooo freakin' weird, eh?

I gotta get out of this town. Yesterday, I bought the latest issue of BWJ - sometimes I just gotta get refreshed on what I'm missing soooo far from my home. I do not want to die inside these city walls. I'm getting old and tired of this shit; all I want to do anymore is go home.

Can I have my vision back
I'll live outside your city walls
You don't have to be afraid
Untill I come together
