A little summary and update concerning JonBenet:

Associated Press Writer
1 hour, 19 minutes ago



BANGKOK, Thailand - Suspect John Mark Karr on Friday awaited extradition to the United States, where questions mounted over whether his stunning confession related to the slaying of 6-year-old JonBenet Ramsey was that of a killer or merely someone obsessed with the case.

Ah, me. What people will do to become a public figure.

a wistful item from the Classics IV

Faded photograph
Covered now with lines and creases
Tickets torn in half
Memories in bits and pieces
Traces of love long ago
That didn't work out right
Traces of love

Ribbons from her hair
Souvenirs of days together
The ring she used to wear
Pages from an old love letter
Traces of love long ago
That didn't work out right
Traces of love
With me tonight

I close my eyes and say a prayer
That in her heart
she'll find
A trace of love still there
Somewhere, ooooh, oh

[Instrumental Interlude]

Traces of hope in the night
that she'll come back and dry
These traces of tears
From my eyes
Whoooa, oooh, oh, oooh

Wow! Mr. Turtle. I love that song. I use to try and do a classical interpretation of that song on the piano. Hmmmm, I do believe that one was by The Lettermen.

It was, folks, and they did it in conjunction with this one:



Well, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Over you
Over you

I want you to want me
I need you so badly
I can't think of anything but you

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

Goin' out of my head over you
Out of my head over you
Out of my head
Day and night
Night and day and night
Wrong or right

I love you, baby
And if it's quite alright
I need you baby
To warm the lonely night
I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say
Oh, pretty baby
Don't bring me down, I pray
Oh, pretty baby
Now that I've found you, stay
And let me love you, baby
Let me love you

I want you to want me
I need you so badly
I can't think of anything but you
Goin' out of my head over you
(Can't take my eyes off of you)
Out of my head
(You're just to good to be true)
Out of my head
Day and night
Night and day and night
Wrong or right
Night and day and night
Wrong or right
Night and day and night
And I think I'm goin' out of my... head

Love it!

Good afternoon all. How long…

It's Going To Take Some Time
Carpenters Lyrics

It's gonna take some time this time
To get myself in shape
I really fell out of line this time
I really missed the gate
The birds on the telephone line (next time)
And cryin' out to me (next time)
And I won't be so blind next time
And I'll find some harmony.

But it's going to take some time this time
And I can't make demands
But like the young trees in the winter time
I'll learn how to bend
After all the tears we've spent
How could we make amends
So it's one more round for experience
And I'm on the road again
And it's going to take some time this time.

And I can't make demands
I'll learn how to bend.

It's going to take some time this time
No matter what I've planned
But like the young trees in the winter time
I'll learn how to bend
After all the tears we've spent
How could we make amends
So it's one more round for experience
And I'm on the road again
And it's going to take some time this time.

Well, there's our Try and playing one by the Carpenter's that I have never heard. How long, you say?

As long as it takes for Gershwin to play.............


Artist: George Gershwin
Song: How long has this been going on ?
Album: Songs & Duets


As a tot, when I trotted in little velvet panties,
I was kissed by my sisters, my cousins, and my anties.
Sad to tell, it was hell, an inferno worse than Dante's.
So my dear I swore,
"Never, never more !"
On my list, I insisted that kissing must be crossed out.
Now, I find I was blind, and oh my ! , how I lost out !

I could cry salty tears ;
Where have I been all these years ?
Little wow, tell me now :
How long has this been going on ?

There were chills up my spine,
And some thrills I can't define.
Listen, sweet, I repeat :
how long has this been going on ?

Oh, I feel that I could melt ;
Into Heaven I'm hurled !
I know how Clombus felt,
Finding another world.

Kiss me once, then once more.
What a dunce I was before.
What a break ! For Heaven's sake !
How long has this been going on ?

Dear, when in your arms I creep,
That divine rendez-vous,
Don't wake me, if I'm asleep,
Let me dream that it's true !

Kiss me twice, then once more.
That makes thrice, let's make it four !
What a break ! For Heaven's sake !
How long has this been going on ?
--How long has this... been going ... on ?...

What a wonderful composer, folks, and what a fabulous pianist.

How many times…

Knock Three Times
Dawn Lyrics

Hey girl what-cha doin down there
Dancin' alone every nite while I live right above you
I can hear your music playin'
I can feel your body swayin'
One floor below me you don't even know me, I love you.

Oh my darlin' knock three times on the ceiling if you want me, umm
Twice on the pipe if the answer is no
Oh my sweetness (knock knock knock) means you'll meet me in the hallway
Woah, twice on the pipe (clang clang) means you ain't gonna show.

If you look out your window tonite
Pull in the string with the note that's attached to my heart
Read how many times I saw you
How in my silence I adored you
And only in my dreams did that wall between us come apart.

Oh my darlin' knock three times on the ceiling if you want me
Hmm, twice on the pipe if the answer is no
Woah my sweetness (knock knock knock) means you'll meet me in the hallway
Woah, twice on the pipe (clang clang) means you ain't gonna show.

Woah, I can hear the music playin', I can feel your body swayin'
One floor below me you don't even know me, I love you.

Oh my darlin' knock three times on the ceiling if you want me
Woah, twice on the pipe if the answer is no
Oh my sweetness (knock knock knock) means you'll meet me in the hallway
Umm, twice on the pipe (clang clang) means you ain't gonna show.

UhOh, Try. Is this going to be a knock knock joke?<smile>

Hey we go, folks:

UFO

Knock Knock
(From the album "WALK ON WATER")

The tide crashed on the shore
As he held her in his arms
They swore their love would stay forever more
And never slip away
From this moment on
As they made their wedding vows
He knew how life would change, oh
Love was blind for now

Hey, but knock, knock, knock
Put the chain on the door
She's back again and now she wants more
Knock, knock, knock
The thief's back to steal
The shirt off my back, my next meal

I'm not living anymore
I'm just breathing day to day
Everything I had has gone, she has taken it away
Heaven's door has opened and looked me in the eye
And there is no Mt. Olympus, just before you die

*
Knock, knock, knock
She's got the house and the car
The only thing left is my old guitar
Knock, knock, knock
Her foot's in the door
The shirt's off my back, now she wants more

And tonight on T.V. well they show a happy pair
I almost wept with laughter
As some fool caught the bouquet the bride threw in the air

(instrumental)

At the final curtain call, in the neon light display
I see all the ugly scars that illuminate my day
And hail the promised land, it's upped and gone to bed
Bleeding hearts and mothers weeping
Sometimes I wish her dead

Repeat *

Hey, but knock, knock, knock
Put the chain on the door
She's back again and now she wants more
Knock, knock, knock
The thief's back to steal
The shirt off my back, stays in my next meal

I'd rather be dreaming than living
Living's just too hard to do
It's chances not choices, noises not voices
A day's just a thing to get through
Living's just too hard to do

I'd rather be dreaming than talking
There's nothing to hear or to say
With ears covered mouth closed the world is opposed
Nothing gets in or away
There's nothing to hear or to say

I'd rather be dreaming than thinking
Thoughts are small comfort to me
Dreams might be pretend but at least dreams end
And I just can't stop thinking you see
Thoughts are small comfort to me

I'd rather be dreaming than sleeping
Just sleeping you're just as well dead
In dreams I can fly, in dreams I don't die
That's why I lie here in this bed
Just sleeping you're just as well dead

I'd rather be dreaming

Ah, dys. what a lovely song, cowboy. Even sad songs are a way of dreaming, right?

Just my cue to say goodnight.

From Letty with love

picking up where dys left off, a melancholy number by the frequently melancholy Roy Orbison:

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
Go to sleep. everything is all right.

I close my eyes, then I drift away
Into the magic night. I softly say
A silent prayer like dreamers do.
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you.

In dreams I walk with you. in dreams I talk to you.
In dreams you're mine. all of the time we're together
In dreams, in dreams.

But just before the dawn, I awake and find you gone.
I can't help it, I can't help it, if I cry.
I remember that you said goodbye.

It's too bad that all these things, can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams in beautiful dreams.

Good morning, WA2K listeners and contributors. Thanks, Mr. Turtle for your dream song. <smile> Are you familiar with a dream keeper?

For you, buddy:

Oyate! Wamayankapo! (Lakota- Nation! People! Look at me - pay attention!)

When the mountain trembled and I held on tight
And knew that hanging wouldn't save me
Still I strengthened my grip, praying rather than hoping

Hail! The end is near! Hail! The end is near! Hail! The end is near!

I saw the lightening, almost slow motion
As it spiraled down to fill my being with it's light
And I knew I could travel to another world in a second

Hail! The end is near! Hail! The end is near! Hail! The end is near!

When that voice, rustled across the long wire
Shaking into my awareness it's cold familiarity
It seemed almost like my stomach heard, rather than my ear.

Hail! The end is near! Hail! The end is near! Hail! The end is near!

It wasn't without warning, I saw it coming, but denied the voices the sounds, the reality
So it's not surprising, this uprising as my beating heart expands,
No speeches, no bands,
It's just the last hail
For the end is near!

Hail! The end is near! Hail! The end is near! Hail! The end is near!

Interesting about that chant. "The end must happen before the beginning can come."

For birthday boy Clinton.

If you wake up and dont want to smile,
If it takes just a little while,
Open your eyes and look at the day,
Youll see things in a different way.

Dont stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Dont stop, itll soon be here,
Itll be, better than before,
Yesterdays gone, yesterdays gone.

Why not think about times to come,
And not about the things that youve done,
If your life was bad to you,
Just think what tomorrow will do.

Dont stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Dont stop, itll soon be here,
Itll be, better than before,
Yesterdays gone, yesterdays gone.

All I want is to see you smile,
If it takes just a little while,
I know you dont believe that its true,
I never meant any harm to you.

Dont stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Dont stop, itll soon be here,
Itll be, better than before,
Yesterdays gone, yesterdays gone.

Dont you look back,
Dont you look back.

hey, edgar, Would that be our Bill?

Sometimes, looking back ain't bad:

DR. FEELGOOD Song Lyrics

Looking Back
(From the album "BE SEEING YOU")

As I was walking down the street
A pretty girl did I meet
She's looking all so sweet
Got a major from her head to her feet

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her

She glowed with such a beautiful smile
She must have been a beautiful child
Man she was all so neat
A major from her head to her feet

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her

- Guitar Solo -

Her hair was curly shining bright
Her shoes in black were just delight
She wore the very best of clothes
And also black and nylon hose

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her

As I was walking down the street
A pretty girl did I meet
She was looking all so sweet
Got a major from her head to her feet

I was looking back
She was looking back
I was looking back at her

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her

thanks to our PD for the dedication. i've heard of dream catchers, but not a dream keeper.

for some reason, this song by Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels is associated in my mind with William J. Clinton

Fee, fee, fi, fi, fo-fo, fum
Look at Molly now [2: look out once again, now], here she comes
Wearin' her wig hat and shades to match
She's got high-heel shoes and an alligator hat
Wearin' her pearls and her diamond rings
She's got bracelets on her fingers, now, and everything
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on

Wearin' her perfume, Chanel No. 5
Got to be the finest girl alive
She walks real cool, catches everybody's eye
She's got such good lovin' that they can't say goodbye
Not too skinny, she's not too fat
She's a real humdinger and I like it like that
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on

("Good Golly Miss Molly" interlude:)
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
While you're rockin' and rollin'
Can't you hear your mama call
From the early, early mornin' 'til the early, early nights
See Miss Molly rockin' at the House of Blue Lights
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
While you're rockin' and rollin'
Can't you hear your mama call

Wearin' her wig hat and shades to match
She's got high-heel shoes and an alligator hat
Wearin' her pearls and her diamond rings
She's got bracelets on her fingers, now, and everything
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on

Wearin' her perfume, Chanel No. 5
Got to be the finest girl alive
She walks real cool, catches everybody's eye
She's got such good lovin' that they can't say goodbye
Not too skinny, she's not too fat
She's a real humdinger and I like it like that
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on

Well, how did turtles get to be so intelligent? You were right, m.d. It is a dreamcatcher



My goodness, love that Molly song, buddy. You do realize, of course, that William's middle name is JEFFERSON. Hee hee.

Here's one that I like, folks:

Saturday Night Fish Fry
Now if you've ever been down to new orleans
Then you can understand just what i mean
All thru the week it's quiet as a mouse
But on saturday night they go from house to house
You don't have to pay the usual admission
If you're a cook, a waiter or a good musician
So if you happen to be just passin' by
Stop in at the saturday night fish fry

It was rockin', it was rockin'
You never seen such scufflin'
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn
It was rockin', it was rockin'
You never seen such scufflin'
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn

Now my buddy and me was on the main stem
Foolin' around just me and him
We decided we could use a little something to eat
So we went to a house on rampart street
We knocked on the door and it opened up with ease
And a lush little miss said, "come in, please"
And before we could even bat an eye
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry

It was rockin', it was rockin'
You never seen such scufflin'
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn
It was rockin', it was rockin'
You never seen such scufflin'
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn

Now the folks was havin' the time of their life
And sam was jivin' jimmie's wife
Over in the corner was a beat up grand
Being played by a big fat piano man
Some of the chicks wore expensive frocks
Some of them had on bobbie socks
But everybody was nice and high
At this particular saturday night fish fry

It was rockin', it was rockin'
You never seen such scufflin'
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn
It was rockin', it was rockin'
You never seen such scufflin'
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn

Now the women were screamin' and jumpin' and yellin'

Good afternoon all. I asked for coffee, not…

Instant Karma (We All Shine On)
John Lennon Lyrics

Instant karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you right on the head
You better get yourself together
Pretty soon you're gonna be dead
What in the world you thinkin' of?
Laughing in the face of love
What on earth you tryin' to do?
It's up to you, yeah you!

Instant karma's gonna get you
Gonna look you right in the face
Better get yourself together darling
Join the human race
How in the world you gonna see
Laughing at fools like me?
Who on earth do you think you are?
A superstar? Well right you are!

Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Everyone, come on.

Instant karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you off your feet
Better recognize your brothers
Everyone you meet
Why in the world are we here?
Surely not to live in pain and fear
Why on earth are you there?
When you're everywhere
Gonna get your share!

Well we all shine on
Like the moons and the stars and the sun
Yeah we all shine on
Come on and on and on on on.

Yeah, yeah
All right
Uh, huh
Ah.

Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Yeah we all shine on, on and on on on.

My, my. Isn't our Try clever, folks? Almost on a par with a whale and a turtle. <smile> Well, my riddling friend......


It's gonna get you, you know:

Song: One Way Or Another Lyrics

One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meetcha meetcha meetcha meetcha
One day, maybe next week
I'm gonna meetcha, I'm gonna meetcha, I'll meetcha
I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all down
I'll see who's around

One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya

And if the lights are all out
I'll follow your bus downtown
See who's hanging out

One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip, a slip of the lip or another
I'm gonna lose ya, I'm gonna trick ya
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna trick ya trick ya trick ya trick ya
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip

I'll walk down the mall
Stand over by the wall
Where I can see it all
Find out who ya call
Lead you to the supermarket checkout
Some specials and rat food, get lost in the crowd

One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha
getcha getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)
One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha

One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha
getcha getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)

Indiana Wants Me
R. Dean Taylor Lyrics

Mmmm, mmmm

Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
I wish I had you, to talk to

If a man ever needed dyin' he did
No one had the right to say what he said about you
And it's so cold and lonely here without you
Out there the laws are coming
I'm scared and so tired of running

Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
I wish I had you, to talk to

It hurts to see the man that I've become
And to know I'll never see the morning sunshine on the land
I'll never see your smiling face, or touch your hand
If just once more I could see
You, our home, and our little baby

Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there, oh

I wish I had you, to talk to

I hope this letter finds its way to you
Forgive me love for the shame I put you through
And all the tears
Hang on love to the memories of those happy years
Red lights are flashin' around me
Yea love it looks like they found me

Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
I wish I had you, to talk to

Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
("This is the police, you are surrounded, give yourself up")
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
("This is the police, give yourself up, you are surrounded")

You didn't shoot the sheriff, did you Try? Well, folks, Johnny Mercer has a different view:

Back home again in Indiana
And it seems that I can see
The gleaming candle light still shining bright
Through the Sycamores for me.
The new mown hay sends out its fragrance
From the fields I used to roam
When I dream about the moonlight on the Wabash
Then I long for my Indiana home.

That is one swinging Dixieland song.

Where's Walter?
