WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Funny Latin George. We would have fun calling my late husband Bud, Bud Ox.
Who in the world would sing Rock a By Baby in the Tree top to a child. Perhaps the meaning had to do with this:


Another legend finds the rhyme's origins steeped in the political climate prior to the Glorious Revolution of 1688. The baby refers to the heir born to England's King James II. Supposedly written in an English pub, the original lyrics served as a death wish upon the newborn prince in hopes the empire would be overthrown.

How about B.J. Thomas now:

I've done this one before, but inspired by Region's spooners I think that I'll do it again. I heard a bull frog croaking outside my back door and the vibrations spun around in my head for fifteen minutes.

Although it's still daylight here, guess I had better say: I'm saving day.

Four songs now, and then I'm gone.

This is for my friend Roger

Another example of Victorian humour. In this case and old woman being scared by a toy frog.

Good morning from our radio station in Florida. The weather is odd here as it looks like a foggy day.

edgar, Thanks for your comment and I love all of Judy's songs especially Both Sides Now.

Hurry back izz with a y. I just found out that "bloke" means gentleman.

Love those Punch jokes, dear friend. Is she anything like the old woman who swallowed a fly?

One more dance and then I'll quit. Wish I could do pictures again. Ah me! I miss being able to do so.

First some info on this gal:

Well, y'all, going to say good afternoon now as I have many tasks to accomplish.

Here are three songs to help all of us who need to work:

First, Matt Monroe (the man with the golden voice and gone too soon)

Bond; James Bond. To me, Sean Connery was THE best:

Driving around today I listened to some Kingston Trio songs. I mentioned on here before that I have a CD collection of all their original music. The one song I can detect as missing is Coplas. Anyway, here are two of the songs I heard today.

First mention of the forthcoming Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria. And they never miss an opportunity to make a pun.

Good morning from a lovely and sunny day here in our Florida radio.

pullman, Victoria Reigns? Wonder if she could sing like Gene Kelly.

What I thought were four leaf clovers in my front yard were really buttercups.

Check out Slim, y'all. What a surprise.

P.S. He is Australian.

Now, our poem for today:

Poems by Robert Frost : 18 / 150

Acquainted with the Night

I have been one acquainted with the night.
I have walked out in rain -- and back in rain.
I have outwalked the furthest city light.

I have looked down the saddest city lane.
I have passed by the watchman on his beat
And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.

I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
When far away an interrupted cry
Came over houses from another street,

But not to call me back or say good-bye;
And further still at an unearthly height,
A luminary clock against the sky

Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.
I have been one acquainted with the night.

We are not amused, but I am, so chin up and well done.

Merci, pushman.

I used to walk in the rain all the time when I was a little girl, because it made my hair curly.

Another rain song now:
