Hey, Raggedy. Yep, synchro is right, PA, but we can always see Elizabeth as the girl in the red velvet hair. Razz Wow, folks. Her hair weighs more than she does.

Great group today, puppy. What a terrible tragedy surrounded Lupe Velez.
Thanks again for the wonderful photo's.

Let's hear one from Red (color of the day) Skelton, ok?

Had no idea that he did this one

SO LONG OO-LONG (HOW LONG YOU GONNA BE GONE)
(Bert Kalmar / Harry Ruby, 1920)


Ming Toy loved a boy,
Happy little Japanee;
Oo-long was his name,
Set her heart a flame.
One day he say, "Soon I gotta go away;"
When he leave Ming Toy grieve;
Everybody hear her say:

Days fly quickly by,
Turning into lonely years;
Tho' the nights are long,
Ming Toy's faith is strong.
She kneels and feels,
That she doesn't pray in vain;
Whispers "Oo I love you, Ming Toy wants you back again."

"So long! Oo-long, how long you gonna be gone?
Your little Japanee,
Will be waiting underneath the bamboo tree;
So don't be too long,
Oo-long I'll long while you're away
Waiting for the day when you'll come back to me.
I'll sit and sigh, 'Neath the Oriental sky,
Each day that I am left a lone In Naki Saki.
So long! Oo-Long, How long you goin' to roam?
Please don't be too long
Oo-long, so long hurry back home."

On a day like today
We passed the time away
Writing love letters in the sand

How you laughed when I cried
Each time I saw the tide
Take our love letters
From the sand

You made a vow that
You would ever be true
But somehow that vow
Meant nothing to you

Now my broken heart aches
With every wave that breaks
Over love letters in the sand

Now my broken heart aches
With every wave that breaks
Over love letters in the sand

Dreams
by: Edgar Allen Poe

Oh! that my young life were a lasting dream!
My spirit not awak'ning till the beam
Of an Eternity should bring the morrow.
Yes! tho' that long dream were of hopeless sorrow,
'T were better than the cold reality
Of waking life, to him whose heart must be,
And hath been still, upon the lovely earth,
A chaos of deep passion, from his birth.
But should it be - that dream eternally
Continuing - as dreams have been to me
In my young boyhood - should it thus be giv'n,
'T were folly still to hope for higher Heav'n.
For I have revell'd, when the sun was bright
I' the summer sky, in dreams of living light
And loveliness, - have left my very heart
In climes of mine imagining, apart
From mine own home, with beings that have been
Of mine own thought - what more could I have seen?
'T was once - and only once - and the wild hour
From my remembrance shall not pass - some pow'r
Or spell had bound me - 't was the chilly wind
Cam o'er me in the night, and left behind
Its image on my spirit - or the moon
Shone on my slumbers in her lofty noon
Too coldly - or the stars - howe'er it was,
That dream was as that night-wind - let it pass.

I have been happy, tho' [but] in a dream.
I have been happy - and I love the theme:
Dreams! in their vivid coloring of life,
As in that fleeting, shadowy, misty strife
Of semblance with reality which brings
To the delirious eye, more lovely things
Of Paradise and Love - and all our own!
Than young Hope in his sunniest hour hath known.

Wow! edgar. I suspect that there are lots of poems by Poe that I haven't read, and that is one of them. Thanks, buddy. Poe always requires a second read, right?

Lazarus
A passenger traveling quietly conceals himself
With a magazine and a sleepless pillow
Over the crest of the mountain the moon begins it's climb
And he wakes to find he's in rolling farmland

The farmer sleeps against his wife
He wonders what their life must be
A trailways bus is heading south
Into washington, d.c.

A mother and child, the baby maybe two months old
Prepare themselves for sleep and feeding.
The shadow of the capitol dome slides across his face
And his heart is racing with the urge to freedom.

The father motionless as stone,
A shepherd resting with his flock,
The trailways bus is turning west-
Dallas via little rock.

Wahzinak
O my darling, darling sal
The desert moon is my witness.
I've no money to come east,
But I know you'll soon be here

Lazarus
We pull into downtown dallas by the side of the grassy knoll
Where the leader fell and a town was broken.
Away from the feel and flow of life for so many years
He hears music playing and spanish spoken

The border patrol outside of tucson boarded the bus

Border patrolman
Any aliens here? you better check with us,
How about you son?
You look like you got spanish blood.
Do you 'habla ingles,' am I understood?

Sal
Yes, I am an alien, from mars.
I come to earth from outer space.
And if I traveled my whole life
You guys would still be on my case
You guys would still be on my case

Lazarus
But he can't leave his fears behind,
He recalls each fatal thrust
The screams carried by the wind,
Phantom figures in the dust
Phantom figures in the dust
Phantom figures in the dust.

Trailways Bus

Good morning, edgar and WA2K folks.

Fantastic song, Texas, and we all enjoy the messages of Paul Simon's music. "phantom figures in the dust" is particularly vivid.

I have always wondered about this song, and finally located an explication concerning it. It goes well with Lazarus, no?

The Weight

I pulled into Nazareth, I was feeling about half past dead;
I just needed some place where I can lay my head.
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand, and 'No' was all he said.

Take a load off Fanny,
Take a load for free;
Take a load off Fanny,
And (and) (and) you put the load right on me.

I picked up my bag, I went looking for a place to hide;
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walking side by side.
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "I gotta go, but my friend can stick around."

Take a load off Fanny (etc.)

Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothing you can say
It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's waiting on the Judgement Day.
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son, won't you stay and keep Anna Lee
company?"

Take a load off Fanny (etc.)

Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog.
He said, "I will fix your rack, if you'll take Jack, my dog."
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man."
He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can."

Take a load off Fanny (etc.)

Catch a cannonball now, to take me down the line
My bag is sinking low and I do believe it's time.
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one.
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.

Take a load off Fanny (etc.)

-- Jaime 'Robbie' Robertson

Vikki Carr
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vikki Carr (born July 19, 1941, in El Paso, Texas as Florencia Bisenta de Casillas Martinez Cardona) is an American singer who has sung in a variety of music genres, including jazz, pop and country, but has enjoyed her greatest success singing in Spanish.




Career

In 1966 she toured Vietnam with actor/comedian Danny Kaye. The following year her album It Must Be Him was nominated for three Grammy Awards. The title track album reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States in 1967. She had two other songs make the U.S. Top 40: 1968's "The Lesson" and 1969's "With Pen in Hand." Around this time, Dean Martin called her "the best girl singer in the business." Carr had 10 singles which made the U.S. pop charts and 13 albums which made the U.S. pop album charts.

In 1968, she taped six specials for London Weekend TV. In 1970, she was named "Woman of the Year" by the Los Angeles Times. She received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1981. Carr also achieved the rare feat of singing for five presidents during her career: Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George Bush, and Bill Clinton. Ford writes in his autobiography A Time to Heal that when Carr appeared at the White House, she asked the president, "What Mexican dish do you like?" His response: "I like you." He goes on to write that the First Lady wasn't pleased: "Betty overheard the exchange, and needless to say, she wasn't wild about it."[citation needed]


A Spanish-language compilation from 1992.In the 1980s and 1990s Carr had enormous success in the Latin music world, winning Grammy Awards for Best Mexican-American Recording in 1985 for the album Simplemente Mujer; for Latin Pop Album in 1992 for the disc Cosas del Amor; and for Best Mexican-American Recording in 1995 for Recuerdo a Javier Solis.

Anthony Charles Planck Edwards[1] (born July 19, 1962) is an Emmy Award-winning American actor and director. He has appeared in various movies and television shows, including Top Gun, Revenge of the Nerds and Northern Exposure, yet is best known for role of Dr. Mark Greene on ER.




Biography

Early life

Edwards was born in Santa Barbara, California to Erika Planck (nee Weber), an artist, and Peter Edwards, an architect. He has two older brothers, Jeffrey and Peter Ross, and two older sisters, Annamaria and Heidi. Edwards was encouraged by his parents to follow his interest in acting. He studied acting at the University of Southern California but left before graduating when parts were offered to him.


Career

Edwards had his first starring role in the 1984 comedy Revenge of the Nerds as Gilbert Lowell, though he had a tiny part in the 1982 film Fast Times at Ridgemont High, credited as "stoner Bud". It was his role as Lt. (j.g.) Nick "Goose" Bradshaw alongside Tom Cruise in the 1986 film Top Gun that brought his first widespread public acknowledgement and as a terminally ill patient in Hawks alongside Timothy Dalton. His best known role to date is as Dr. Mark Greene on the long-running TV series ER. He once commented that it was challenging to play a character who was more intelligent than he was[citation needed]. He reportedly earned $35,000,000 for three of his eight seasons on ER. His ER paycheck made him one of the highest paid television actors of all time. Anthony Edwards and his former co-star George Clooney, were the ones who suggested doing an episode of ER live[2]. The fourth season premiere, "Ambush" was performed live twice with an East Coast and West Coast version.

In 2007, Edwards appeared in David Fincher's Zodiac, about the Zodiac Killer, the notorious serial killer who terrorized San Francisco in the 1960s and 1970s.


Personal life

He has been married to Jeanine Lobell since 1994, and they have four children. He has one son, Bailey, and three daughters: Esme, Poppy, and Wallis. He left ER so he could spend more time with his family.

A. J. Cronin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Archibald Joseph Cronin (July 19, 1896-January 6, 1981) was a Scottish novelist who is remembered chiefly as the author of The Citadel and The Keys of the Kingdom, both of which were made into Oscar-nominated films. The Dr. Finlay character originated in Cronin's 1935 short story, "Country Doctor," which led to further stories that were collected in Adventures of a Black Bag. These provided the basis for the long-running BBC television and radio series entitled Dr. Finlay's Casebook.

Born in Cardross, Dunbartonshire (now in Argyll and Bute), Scotland, Cronin was the only child of a Protestant mother, Jessie Montgomerie Cronin, and a Catholic father, Patrick Cronin, and would later write of young men from similarly mixed backgrounds. He was a precocious student at Dumbarton Academy and won many writing competitions. Due to his exceptional abilities, he was awarded a scholarship to study medicine at the University of Glasgow. It was there that he met his future wife, Agnes Mary Gibson, who was also a medical student. He graduated with honours from medical school in 1919 and went on to earn additional degrees, including his MRCP.

Cronin trained as a doctor in various hospitals before serving as a Royal Navy surgeon during World War I, like the medical hero of his novel Shannon's Way. After the war he set up a practice in a mining area of South Wales, and in 1924, he was appointed Medical Inspector of Mines. He drew on his experiences researching the deleterious effects of the mining industry on the workers' health for his later novels The Citadel, set in Wales, and The Stars Look Down, set in northeastern England. He subsequently moved to London and had a thriving practice on Harley Street. While on holiday in the Scottish Highlands, Cronin wrote his first novel, Hatter's Castle, which was a great success. It tells the story of a family brought to ruin by the megalomania and ruthlessness of its patriarch.

Many of Cronin's books were bestsellers that were translated into numerous languages. His strengths included his narrative skill and his powers of acute observation and graphic description. Some of his novels and stories draw on his medical career, dramatically mixing realism, romance, and social criticism. The Citadel incited the establishment of the National Health Service in Great Britain by exposing the injustice and incompetence of medical practice at the time. Not only were the author's pioneering ideas instrumental in the creation of the NHS, but the popularity of his novels played a substantial role in the Labour Party's landslide 1945 victory.[1]

In the late 1930s Cronin moved to the United States with his wife and three sons, eventually settling in New Canaan, Connecticut. Ultimately, he returned to Europe, residing in Lucerne and Montreux, Switzerland for the last twenty-five years of his life and continuing to write into his eighties. He died on January 9, 1981, in Montreux.

This is the actual message the Pacific Palisades High School
(California) Staff voted unanimously to record on their school telephone
answering machine. This came about because they implemented a policy
requiring students and parents to be responsible for their children's
absences and missing homework.

The school and teachers are being sued by parents who want their
children's failing grades changed to passing grades even though those
children were absent 15-30 times during the semester and did not
complete enough school work to pass their classes.

"Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your school.
In order to assist you in connecting the right staff member, please
listen to all your options before making a selection:

To lie about why your child is absent - Press 1

To make excuses for why your child did not do his work- Press 2

To complain about what we do - Press 3

To swear at staff members - Press 4

To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your
newsletter and several flyers mailed to you - Press 5

If you want us to raise your child - Press 6

If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone - Press 7

To request another teacher for the third time this year- Press 8

To complain about bus transportation - Press 9

To complain about school lunches - Press 0

If you realize this is the real world and your child must be accountable
and responsible for his/her own behavior, class work, homework, and that
it's not the teachers' fault for your child's lack of effort: Hang up
and have a nice day!"

If you can read this thank a teacher.
If you are reading it in English thank a veteran.

WITH PEN IN HAND
Vikki Carr

With pen in hand you sign your name
Today I find I'll be on that train
And you'll be free and i will be alone
So alone
If you think we can't find
The love we once knew
If you think I can't make
Everything up to you
Then I'll be gone
And you'll be on your own
You'll be on your own
Can you take good care of Jenny
Can you take her to school everyday
Can you teach her how to play
All the games that little girls play
Here what I say
Can you teach her how to roll up her hair
Can you make sure each night
That she says her prayers
Well if you can do these things
Then maybe she won't miss me
Maybe she won't miss me
And tonight as you lay
In that big lonely bed
And you look at that pillow
Where I laid my head
With your heart on fire
Will you have no desire
To kiss me
Or to hold me
And if you can forget
The good times that we had
If you don't think the good times
Outweigh the bad
Than go ahead and sign your name
And I'll be on my way
I'll be on my way
La da da da da da da da da
La da da da da da da da da

Good morning WA2K.

I had a recording of Bobby Goldsboro doing that "Pen in Hand" tearjerker. Come to think of it, he did quite a few tearjerkers, didn't he?


And now, Vikki, Anthony and A.J.

There's our Raggedy, folks.

Great trio today, PA, and once again we appreciate your putting faces to names.

Hmmm. I need to check out Bobby, puppy.

My word, I just recalled A.J., folks. My mother loved him. I vaguely recall The Citadel and Keys to the Kingdom.

edgar, I guess the color for the day is "pink"

Here's that tear jerker, Raggedy.

HONEY
See the tree, how big it's grown,
but friend, it hasn't been too long it wasn't big.
I laughed at her and she got mad,
the first day that she planted it was just a twig.

Then the first snow came and she ran
out to brush the snow away so it wouldn't die.
Came runnin' in all excited,
slipped and almost hurt herself, I laughed 'til I cried.

She was always young at heart,
kind a dumb and kind a smart and I loved her so.
I surprised her with a puppy,
kept me up all Christmas eve two years ago.

And it would sure embarrass her when
I came home from working late 'cause I would know
that she'd been sittin' there cryin
over some sad and silly late, late show.

And Honey, I miss you and I'm being good.
And I'd love to be with you if only I could.

She wrecked the car and she was sad
and so afraid that I'd be mad but what the heck.
Though I pretended hard to be,
guess you could say she saw through me and hugged my neck.

I came home unexpectedly
and found her crying needlessly in middle of the day.
And it was in the early spring
when flowers bloom and Robins sing, she went away.

And Honey, I miss you and I'm being good.
And I'd love to be with you if only I could.

Yes, one day while I wasn't home,
while she was there and all alone, the angels came.
Now all I have is memories
of Honey, and I wake up nights and call her name.

Now my life's an empty stage
where Honey lived and Honey played and love grew up.
A small cloud passes over head
and cries down in the flower bed that Honey loved.
See the tree, how big it's grown...(fading)
- Bobby Russell

Then, of course, there's the one by Gilbert O'Sullivan, "Alone Again, Naturally."

Hey, y'all. This ain't no day to cry. Razz

That's the one. Crying or Very sad

And don't forget this one by Bobby.

See the funny little clown
See him laughing as you walk by,
Everybody thinks he's happy
Cause you never see a tear in his eye.
No one knows he's crying,
No one knows he's dying on the inside
Cause he's laughing on the outside, mm,
No one knows, no one knows.
See the funny little clown, he's hiding behind a smile.
They all think he's laughing
But I know he's really crying all the while.
How his heart is aching, how his heart is breaking on the inside,
But he keeps laughing on the outside, mm,
No one knows, no one knows.
This funny little clown you never used to see him around
Without his girl beside him to love and guide him,
Until one day his girl just walked away
And to this very day he says he never loved her anyway,
Mm, and no one knows except for me
Because you see I'm that funny little clown.

And it is a day to cry because the pup is getting a root canal this afternoon and doesn't want to. Transportation was late this AM and appointment had to be moved to this afternoon and it's raining cats and puppies with more on the way this evening. Crying or Very sad

Ah, puppy, I'll cry with you. Those canals have strange roots. Crying or Very sad

Good grief, PA, your clown song reminded me that AMC had the Untouchables on last evening, and I watched Robert De Niro(Capone) cry as Caruso sang the aria from Pagliacci.

I had forgotten what a fabulous film that was. Sean Connery was, as usual, top notch. Not one thing politically correct in that film, folks.

Wanted to post this this morning, but hadn't the time. From Music From Big Pink

In A Station
Once I walked through the halls of a station
Someone called your name
In the streets I heard children laughing
They all sound the same

Wonder could you ever know me
Know the reason why I live?
Is there nothing you can show me
Life seems so little to give

Once I climbed up the face of a mountain
And ate the wild fruit there
Fell asleep until the moonlight woke me
And I could taste your hair

Isn't everybody dreaming?
Then the voice I hear is real
Out of all the idle scheming
Can't we have something to feel?

Once upon a time they used me indeed
Tomorrow never comes
I could sing the sound of your laughter
Still I don't know your name

Must be some way to repay you
Out of all the good you gave
If a rumour should delay you
Love seems so little to say

edgar, I like that song even though it's a bit like Francis Bacon's modern art. Thanks, Texas, I guess those pink people want to be ambiguous.

Hope our Raggedy is all right and here's a teasing song for her, folks.

Weird Al Yankovic - Cavity

Listen to the Muzak
Hearin' people scream
Sittin' in the waiting room
Readin' crappy magazines
With a toothache
This is it, pal
Root Canal

My molars are impacted
I'm gettin' gum disease
I'm gonna need some fillings
Got twelve cavities
Can you help me
Have mercy
Doctor, please

My teeth are a fright
Got a huge overbite
Numb me, drill me
Floss me, bill me

You jab at my nerve endings
It's driving me insane
Just give me nitrous oxide
Shoot me up with novocaine
Help me out here
'Cause I'm in severe pain

Please stop for a bit
Let me rinse and spit
Numb me, drill me
Floss me, bill me

You validate my parking
I think that I'm okay
But you make one more appointment for
A week from Saturday
'Cause you came upon
A problem on
My x-ray
Oy vey!

I'm getting absurd
Well, I hope I'm insured, now
Numb me, drill me
Floss me, bill me

From Francis Bacon to the art and poetry lovers.

Under canopy of darkness
Looking through the small black hole,
Seeing nymphs awash in madness
Cluttered colors on the floor
Scattered are the dreams of Francis,
Transformed into nothingness.
Recreated with a paint brush
Into foreign happiness
