Lola at the Coffee House

I enjoy Ramsey, what I know of him, which isn't all that much. I only looked at one of the videos, ay yi yi. I read some of the comments, interesting. Some were saying this would be a draw for the restaurant. That's hard for me to imagine, since it wouldn't be for me, but maybe it would be for people who like a connection to celebrity in action.

Wow....Tico...holy cow.... .

And to all...a good night.

Just reading the NY Times...

Wow, has bank robbery gotten sophisticated.

It's only TV Joe. Gordon Ramsey is an act. He's milking that udder which likes to think restaurants are macho.

Which is all very well if sitting opposite a babe chomping down one's wallet is macho.

How did you know I've been youtube stalking Elaine Stritch lately!

Psychic powers, ehBeth.

Madame Firefly knows all, sees all.

lols.

That's all...

but first, something for Spendy

Thank you for bringing Elaine over to the cafe. I once was close enough to her to touch the hand of the woman who was next to her. (I still got burned by her radiance)
I forget who the actor was who was asked what the difference was between acting in movies and doing Broadway who answered "On Broadway you are in front of your live audience balancing on a high wire, being who you supposed to be for two hours in a single take. In Hollywood, the highwire is strung across a roomfull of bored lighting techs, you get fifteen takes to get one line right and the wire? It's one foot off the ground."

She's wonderful.

Joe(I'll drink to that)Nation

I'd not been there, of course, but read a lot about her.

Great quote.

Ha! I've been there.

I'll join in if I can borrow the hot pink number on the right.

Consider the hot pink number yours, Diane.

I'm so glad you'll be joining in.

What a snazzy looking group we will be!

Agreed.

Boy, I'm glad I missed the capital punishment discussion. For some reason the subject creates extreme displeasure in my little psyche. It actually makes me sick, so I usually just turn off the radio or TV when the subject comes up. It is one of my most disliked subjects. Enough said.

Sorry vonny and found soul........I did get you mixed up.

Night night all.

This ain't Lola...

Ode to a Redneck Woman

Well, I ain't never been the Barbie doll type
No, I can't swig that sweet Champagne, I'd rather drink beer all night
In a tavern or in a honky tonk or on a four-wheel drive tailgate
I've got posters on my wall of Skynyrd, Kid and Strait
Some people look down on me, but I don't give a rip
I'll stand barefooted in my own front yard with a baby on my hip
'cause I'm a redneck woman
I ain't no high class broad
I'm just a product of my raising
I say, 'hey ya'll' and 'yee-haw'
And I keep my Christmas lights on
On my front porch all year long
And I know all the words to every Charlie Daniels song
So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country
Let me get a big 'hell yeah' from the redneck girls like me, hell yeah
Victoria's Secret, well their stuff's real nice
But I can buy the same damn thing on a Wal-Mart shelf half price
And still look sexy, just as sexy as those models on TV
I don't need no designer tag to make my man want me
Well, you might think I'm trashy, a little too hardcore
But in my neck of the woods I'm just the girl next door
I'm a redneck woman
I ain't no high class broad
I'm just a product of my raising
I say, 'hey y'all' and 'yee-haw'
And I keep my Christmas lights on
On my front porch all year long
And I know all the words to every Tanya Tucker song
So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country
Let me get a big 'hell yeah' from the redneck girls like me, hell yeah
I'm a redneck woman
I ain't no high class broad
I'm just a product of my raising
I say, 'hey y'all' and 'yee-haw'
And I keep my Christmas lights on
On my front porch all year long
And I know all the words to every ol' Bocephus song
So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country
Let me get a big 'hell yeah' from the redneck girls like me, hell yeah
Hell yeah, hell yeah
Hell yeah
I said hell yeah!

Kinks 'Ode to' Lola

I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola [LP version:
Coca-cola]
C-o-l-a cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola
L-o-l-a Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

Well I'm not the worlds most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Oh my Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said dear boy wont you come home with me
Well I'm not the worlds most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

Well that's the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

Well I left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said dear boy I'm gonna make you a man

Well I'm not the worlds most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
