Momma said that aint no way to have fun!

I love Political Scioence and Dancing Bear.

Mama Told Me Not To Come

Will you have whiskey with your water
Or sugar with your tea?
What are these crazy questions
That they're asking of me?
This is the wildest party that there ever could be
Oh, don't turn on the light 'cause I don't want to see
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
Mama said, "That ain't no way to have fun."
Open up the window, let some air into this room
I think I'm almost choking on the smell of stale perfume
And that cigarette you're smoking 'bout to scare me half to death
Open up the window, let me catch my breath
The radio is blasting, someone's beating on the door
Our hostess is not lasting - she's out on the floor
I seen so many things here I ain't never seen before
I don't know what it is - but I don't wanna see no more
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
Mama said, "That ain't no way to have fun."

This is a beautiful... sad... ironic... song. I think this may be the song that made me realize how great he was.

My A2K is playing up something awful!

Deb, you're up late!

Piffka, you're online early!

A2k does seem slow (is that what "playing up something awful" means?).

But heehee.. I'm not up early... that post was made about 8am here in "realtime"!!!!

Anyway, I normally rise around 5am... so I feel like I was up late this morning (however, still before 8!).

But it was with a good happy reason. My daughter surprised us and came home from college for the night, (one of her friends was driving this way) so I stayed up late talking with her. Her newest love -- looking at www.horsetopia.com I admit, it is addicting! And she's already left... She has a class at 10am.

So it wasn't my imagination! A2K WAS playing up something awful! More than slow, Piffka, positively dodderish it was!
Anyway, here we are, back again. Hooray!
