How about some nice jazz for today. John Coltrane.

Bump already!

Ben Folds and WASO - Smoke

this. bump'll get things over the hump...

tsar, it worked. Thanks for all your bumps. Sorry I can't acknowledge each one, buddy. Too many bumps.

Region, yours made me think of the camel and his hump.

Another great Ray Charles, y'all.

and, y'all, our poem for today.

Joyce Kilmer. 1886–1918

I THINK that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the sweet earth's flowing breast;

A tree that looks at God all day, 5
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;

A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;

Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.

Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

I remember Paul Robeson singing that one. Another wonderful bass-voiced man ruined by Eugene McCarthy.

Two more, and then I'll quit.

First, I'm still a captain.

Lots of people really like this guy, Jacques Brel.
What do you think?

I like Robert Cray and his band.

Welcome back, McTag. To be frank, I never like Jaques' voice, but that Amsterdam in French was really good. (made me think of the cosmic eagle)

Didn't know Robert Cray and his bunch. Once again, thanks for the introduction.l

What do you think of this bunch, buddy?

When I was a kid, I used to think Loch was a lock. Had no idea that it meant lake.

Derivative, but quite cheery.

McTag, That was a funny loch by Andy. Loved it!

Love this one as well:

Thor's got his hammer out again, so I think that I will say goodnight now with two songs.
First, "the velvet fog":

So great having friends like Roger, Ursula, B Lee Izz with a y and Scottland, and Region with us today.


From Letty with love to the world

Good morning from our radio station here in Florida. Oops, I omitted Phoenix(Bernice). She was delightful to meet in Cocoa Beach.

Vonny, I missed your song last evening. Didn't know Rob Thomas' song How A Heart Breaks, but it reminded me of Bonnie Tyler's song.

Now a funny clip from All in the Family:

Once again calling all poets, music lovers, painters, etc

Thinking of Eva today. I have only met her once, but she has been very supportive.

Now, one of my favorite poems by Tennyson:


The Eagle

He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.

Bananarama? Peachy keen!

Thanks, tsar. You have a great sense of humor. Here is one by Johnny that makes me realize how much we have in common.

Never saw Around the World in Eighty Days, but I remember the theme song.

Don't know these gals so first some info:

The Chordettes were an American female popular singing quartet, usually singing a cappella, and specializing in traditional popular music.

Now, the theme, y'all:
