Fred got home from his Sunday round of golf later than normal and very tired. "Bad day at the course?" his wife asked.

"Everything was going fine," he said. "Then Harry had a heart attack and died on the 10th tee."

"Oh, that's awful!"

"You're not kidding. For the whole back nine it was hit the ball, drag Harry, hit the ball, drag Harry."

Oh, the whippoorwill roosts on the telephone pole
And the Georgia sun goes down
Well, it's been a long, long time but I'm glad that I'm
Goin' back to my home town
Goin' down to the Greyhound station
Gonna buy me a one-way fare
And if the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise
By tomorrow, ah, I'm gonna be there

Don't it make you want to go home?
Don't it make you want to go home?
All God's children get weary when they roam
Don't it make you want to go home?

There's a six-lane highway down by the creek
Where I went skinny-dippin' as a child
And a drive-in show where the meadows used to grow
And the strawberries used to grow wild

There's a drag strip down by the riverside
Where my grandma's cow used to graze
Now the grass don't grow and the river don't flow
Like it did in my childhood days

(Don't it make you wanna go home?)
(Don't it make you wanna go home?)
All God's children get weary when they roam
(Don't it make you) wanna, wanna go home?

Background singers sing 'It's different, it's different , it's different, so
different now ' while Brook scats with variations on 'Don't it make you wanna go home?'
and then 'But all God's children get weary when they roam, and don't it make you wanna go
home?'

'Don't it make you wanna to go home don't it make you
wanna go home And now-ah, don't it make you wanna go home, don't it make you
wanna go home?'
All of God's children get weary when they roam
(Don't it make you) SPOKEN: 'And' (want to go home?)
SPOKEN: I'm goin' home

Thanks, Boston Bob for the great bio's and the funny golf joke. I've noticed on my course out back, that the golfers often drag around a golf bag. For me, golf would be a drag. Razz

edgar, that Georgia line is perfect. I was thinking of Johnny Mercer and all the wonderful songs he wrote and sometimes sang. I did not realize that he went to an expensive prep school in Virginia.

For Gus when he is serious.

Moon River

Moon river, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style, some day.

Old dream maker, you heart breaker,
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way.

Two drifters, off to see the world,
There's such a lot of world, to see.

We're after the same rainbow's end,
Waitin' 'round the bend,
My Huckleberry friend, moon river,
And me

Hope our Raggedy found her pup and will be back with her collage.

Thanks again for the photo's. As usual, a wonderful collage of notables.

What a sad turn of events for Owen Wilson. Since he starred with Jackie Chan, here is a song from that Chinese man.

Jackie Chan - Flight Of The Dragon

Out of the East
A dream comes out from the sky
Setting me free
Through the clouds I will fly
The mountain must yield to me
Thunder will roar
The sound wakes the universe
Dragon will soar.

That's the only one that I could find that was not written in Chinese.

Let the stars fade and fall
And I won't care at all

Every kiss brings a thrill
And I know that it will
As long as I have you

Let's think of the future
Forget the past
You're not my first love
But you're my last
Take the love that I bring
Then I'll have everything

He is much celebrated here, as is Bruce Springsteen of Freehold, NJ. Bruce lives in nearby Rumson, a high end, upper crust neighborhood, not far, from his humble beginnings. He gives millions, to underpriviledged children, in this area. His way of giving back! Jack Nicholson, was also born in Neptune, although his bio says, he graduated from Manasquan, High School. All three are from Monmouth County, where I live in Asbury Park, By the Sea! New Jersey is filled with colonial history, which doesn't seem to be taught here. Growing up in New Orleans, we were taught Louisiana history. New Orleans was founded as a trading post, by the French, in the 1600's. It wasn't until the 1700's, that the City was incorporated and under the famous Louisiana Purchase in 1803, became a part of the United States. Boy, were the French, ever mad at Napoleon, selling out to the Americans! To this day, the uptown area of the City is referred to by natives, as the "American" section! If you were of French descent, you lived in or around the original "French Quarter", or on the perimeter, like I did. There's even a section in N.O., called "The Irish Channel", because it's where the Irish were forced to settle. If you ever see the series, "The Irish In America", on PBS, one full segment, is dedicated to their settling in New Orleans and the bias, heaped on these innocent people! It was a tragedy!

Danny DeVito
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Birth name Daniel Michael DeVito Jr.
Born November 17, 1944 (1944-11-17) (age 63)
Neptune, New Jersey, U.S.
Spouse(s) Rhea Perlman (January 28, 1982 - present) 3 children
[show]Awards
Emmy Awards
Outstanding Supporting Actor - Comedy Series
1981 Taxi

Daniel Michael DeVito Jr. (born November 17, 1944) is an Emmy Award-winning American actor, director, and an Oscar-nominated producer, who first gained prominence for his portrayal of "Louie De Palma" on the popular ABC and NBC TV series Taxi (1978-1983). In 2006 he began co-starring as Frank Reynolds on the FX sitcom It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

His wife is actress Rhea Perlman.





Biography

Early life

DeVito was born in Neptune, New Jersey to Italian-American Catholic parents and raised in nearby Asbury Park.[1]. He boarded at Oratory Preparatory School, in Summit, New Jersey, graduating in 1961. He married actress Rhea Perlman on January 28, 1982.


Career

His career began with the part of Martini in the movie One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (reprising his role from the 1971 off-Broadway play). After Taxi, DeVito continued what became a successful movie career, beginning with a role in 1983's Terms of Endearment (in an almost walk-on role) and the comic rogue in the romantic adventure Romancing the Stone, starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner. All three reprised their roles in the 1985 sequel, The Jewel of the Nile. In 1986, he was in Ruthless People with Bette Midler and Judge Reinhold. In 1987, DeVito made his feature directing debut on dark comedy Throw Momma from the Train, in which he additionally starred, opposite Billy Crystal and Anne Ramsey. Two years later DeVito reunited with Douglas and Turner to direct and star with them in The War of the Roses.

Other notable work during this time includes Other People's Money with legend Gregory Peck, director Barry Levinson's Tin Men as a competitive salesman to Richard Dreyfuss, two co-starring vehicles with Arnold Schwarzenegger, the comedies Twins and Junior, and the villain The Penguin in director Tim Burton's Batman Returns (1992). It is said that Jack Nicholson convinced DeVito to play The Penguin since Nicholson enjoyed great success as The Joker in the original Batman from 1989. Rather than portraying The Penguin as a suave and sophisticated gangster as he was in the comics, DeVito portrayed the Penguin as a deformed psychopath. DeVito's performence of the Penguin was so scary to critics, that he won a Golden Raspberry Award for worst supporting actor.

Although generally a comic actor, DeVito expanded into drama with such movies as Renaissance Man (1994) as Army Professor Bill Rago; The Rainmaker, (1997) as Deck Shifflet, a former insurance assessor; Hoffa (1992), which he directed and in which he co-starred with Jack Nicholson; L.A. Confidential as a sleazy reporter (1997); The Big Kahuna as a compassionate salesman Amos Calloway (1999); and Heist (2001), as a gangster nemesis to Gene Hackman.

DeVito grew up with a great passion for documentaries. And so in 2006, he began a partnership with Morgan Freeman's company ClickStar, where he hosts a documentary channel called Jersey Docs.


In addition to acting, DeVito has become a major film and television producer. Through his production company, Jersey Films, he has produced many movies, including Pulp Fiction, Get Shorty, Erin Brockovich, Gattaca,and Garden State. DeVito has also produced the Comedy Central series Reno 911!.

In 1999, DeVito produced and co-starred in Man On The Moon, a movie about the unusual life of his former Taxi co-star, Andy Kaufman.

DeVito has directed six motion pictures, Throw Momma From the Train (1987), The War of the Roses (1989), Hoffa (1992), Matilda (1996), Death to Smoochy (2002), and Duplex (2003). He is set to direct his seventh feature, 2007's I Married a Witch, which will star Tom Cruise and Famke Janssen.

His films tend to have a bizarre, neo-surrealistic sensibility and gallows humor, though this was absent in the straightforward Hoffa biopic. This approach served him well at times, especially in The War of the Roses which was a commercial and critical success, however his last two films have not been anywhere as successful.[1]

In addition to his Taxi work, DeVito has voiced Herb Powell Homer Simpson's half-brother, on two episodes of The Simpsons. He earned a 2004 Emmy nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series, an episode of Friends, following four Emmy nominations (including a 1981 win) for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy, for Taxi. In 2006, DeVito joined the cast of the FX Networks television series It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia as Frank Reynolds.


Personal life

DeVito is married to actress Rhea Perlman, with whom he has three children - Lucie Chet DeVito (born March 1983), Grace Fan DeVito (born March 1985) and Jacob Daniel DeVito (born October 1987). DeVito and his family live in Manalapan, New Jersey. He is an outspoken Democrat and vegetarian[2]. He is a supporter of the OneVoice Movement, a non-profit organization that strives to empower moderate Israelis and Palestinians to take a more assertive role in resolving their conflict [3].

DeVito has teamed up with world renowned restaurateur David Manero and Michael Brauser to open his first restaurant, which will be aptly named DeVito South Beach, in Miami Beach, Florida. DeVito South Beach opened to the public on June 18, 2007, after a series of high profile private parties featuring a cast of A-list celebrities and DeVito himself. Despite DeVito being a vegetarian, the restaurant will feature a contemporary Italian cuisine fused with characteristics of a traditional Italian chop house.

It was first recorded in 1961, by the Marvelettes, for Tamla Records and was their first hit! Must've impressed the Beatles, because they, then recorded it and it became a hit for them, as well! I always thought the song was to a serviceman, since she hadn't gotten a letter! The war in Viet-Nam began to rage, after Eisenhower, sent in the first "advisors" in 1956, after the French abandoned this "lost cause"! I was a junior in high school, in '61.

Hey, y'all. I think I have been invaded by beetles. (that is really what I thought when I first saw the name)

Thanks, hbg, for the postman song, and I think our teenyboone is correct about the other group. I didn't know that the fab four did it.

edgar, I'm glad you got Harry in there, because I am wild about him. Razz

Interesting ifo about Danny, Sharon, and thanks. We learn a lot about other things on our little cyber radio. I think Eisenhower might have known there was tungsten in Nam as well.

How about some diamond songs as inspired by the picture connection.

THE SEALS & CROFTS COLLECTION (1979).

Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Glad I found you, glad you're mine.
Oh my love, you're like a precious stone, part of earth where heaven has rained on.
Makes no difference where you are. Day or nighttime, you're like a shinin' star.
And how could I shine without you, when it's about you that I am?

Diamond Girl, roamin' wild. Such a rare thing, radiant child.
I could never find, another one like you. Part of me is deep down inside you.
Can't you feel the whole world a-turin'. We are real, and we are a-burnin'.
Diamond Girl, now that I've found you, it's about you that I am.

Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Diamond Girl, you sure do shine.
Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Diamond Girl, you sure do shine.




Joan Baez - Diamonds And Rust

Well I'll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full
And you happened to call
And here I sit
Hand on the telephone
Hearing a voice I'd known
A couple of light years ago
Heading straight for a fall

As I remember your eyes
Were bluer than robin's eggs
My poetry was lousy you said
Where are you calling from?
A booth in the midwest
Ten years ago
I bought you some cufflinks
You brought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust

Well you burst on the scene
Already a legend
The unwashed phenomenon
The original vagabond
You strayed into my arms
And there you stayed
Temporarily lost at sea
The Madonna was yours for free
Yes the girl on the half-shell
Would keep you unharmed

Now I see you standing
With brown leaves falling around
And snow in your hair
Now you're smiling out the window
Of that crummy hotel
Over Washington Square
Our breath comes out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me
We both could have died then and there

Now you're telling me
You're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You who are so good with words
And at keeping things vague
Because I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly
Yes I loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
I've already paid.

Does anyone here know to whom that song was dedicated?

Diamond Girl, is still popular! Those 70's just won't go away! Some of the best songs, were written then. Every time I turn on the TV or radio, they're singing some song from the 50's, 60's or 70's! My coming of age, in a world that was changing! I don't want to relive them, though, just glad I survived them! Lots of change, but change is an evolving thing, isn't it? When I look at old photos, I laugh my head off, at my hair, clothes and makeup, or the lack of it! Funny, what you don't need, when you're young! I look all dried up, without makeup, now! I don't mind aging, at all; just wish it did'nt hurt!

I went to an oldies dance, last night. The women were dressed in poodle skirts, (50"s), afro's, (60's-70's), long hair, dashikis, etc. I went, Ay, Yai, Yai, these folks don't know which year, they're in! We laughed our heads off. I wear a lot of sandy beige, dress too practical/preppy/traditional/, for this crazy bunch! The only crazy thing, I had on, was an enameled turkey, hanging from a gold chain. I looked, Catholic! Too Catholic, like a nun, in street clothes! I looked in a word, "establishment"!

Just a shadow, of my 60's self, when I wore mini's, hot pants and go-go boots! Shaking my head. Where did the years go? Now, I'm a grand-ma, doing grand-ma things, like sleeping, after eating. Eating oatmeal for 30 days, soup and jell-o, every day. When did I become HER? I keep looking for the old me and I can't find her. When my grandkids, hear me sing, they're astounded that their "old bag" can sing and still dance a little! Then I show my "thin" pictures and they can't believe it's me! Ah, ces't la vie! Love what your radio show, does for me, Letty!
What an ego booster, you are!

Sharon, I promise that I won't site Freud about the ego, honey, but you have the right thoughts and the right attitude, so you are your own best ego. Letty has nothing to do with it.

Thinking about Sidney Poitier tonight and his wonderful role in Lilies of the Field. This is a perfect song for Sunday and a goodnight song for me.

Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen
Sing it over
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen

See the little baby
Wrapped in a manger on Christmas morning
singing in the temple
Talking with the elders
Tomorrow there's wisdom

Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen
Hallelujah
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen

Down at the Jordan
John was baptizing and saving all sinners
See him at the seaside
Talking with the fisherman
And made them disciples

Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen
Keep on pushin now
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen
Hallelujah now
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen

Goodnight, all.

From Letty with love

How am I gonna find her, child
You know I will
'Cause I've been searchin'
Oh, yeah, searchin'
My goodness, searchin' every which a-way
Yeah, yeah
But I'm like the Northwest Mounted
You know I'll bring her in some day
(Gonna find her)
(Gonna find her)

Well, Sherlock Holmes
Sam Spade got nothin', child, on me
Sergeant Friday, Charlie Chan
And Boston Blackie
No matter where she's hiding
She's gonna hear me a comin'
Gonna walk right down that street
Just like Bulldog Drummond
'Cause I've been searchin'
Oooh, Lord, searchin', mm child
Searchin' every which a-way
Yeah, yeah
But I'm like the Northwest Mounted
You know I'll bring her in
(Gonna find her)
(Gonna find her)

Good morning WA2K radio audience.

edgar, what a great song. I especially like the verse with all the detectives in it.

Here's a funny song, folks, about a designer whose birthday is today.

From a cowboy to a playboy, what a change
From a horse, to a Porsche, when you're riding the range
From the trees and the stars, to the discos and bars
Tell me is it as far as it seems from Levi's to Calvin Klein jeans?

The life that you're living don't fit cowboy boots
But you fit right in with your new Gucci shoes
You're wearing gold plated glasses and solid gold chains
I doubt if the country will see you again.

From a cowboy to a playboy, what a change
From a horse, to a Porsche, when you're riding the range
From the trees and the stars, to the discos and bars
Tell me is it as far as it seems from Levi's to Calvin Klein jeans?

The tan on your face has turned cally white
Riding those bar stools don't let in sun light
I can tell by the look that I see in your eyes
You yearn for the country and wide open skies.

From a cowboy to a playboy, what a change
From a horse, to a Porsche, when you're riding the range
From the trees and the stars, to the discos and bars
Tell me is it as far as it seems from Levi's to Calvin Klein jeans?

From Levi's to Calvin Klein jeans?...
