Good morning, WA2K folks.
edgar, Loved your goodnight song by Hank. Never heard that one, but Too Many Parties Too Many Pals may explain a lot about that man's short life. Thanks again for your comments.
Ah, Me and My Shadow reminded me of RLS.
I Have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,
And what can be the use of him is more than I can see.
He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;
And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed.
The funniest thing about him is the way he likes to grow—
Not at all like proper children, which is always very slow;
For he sometimes shoots up taller like an India-rubber ball,
And he sometimes gets so little that there’s none of him at all.
He hasn’t got a notion of how children ought to play,
And can only make a fool of me in every sort of way.
He stays so close beside me, he’s a coward you can see;
I’d think shame to stick to nursie as that shadow sticks to me!
One morning, very early, before the sun was up,
I rose and found the shining dew on every buttercup;
But my lazy little shadow, like an arrant sleepy-head,
Had stayed at home behind me and was fast asleep in bed.
Our Brit's order of Chinese food also brought this funny one to mind. Used to play Chop Sticks on the piano as a child.

Love Chinese food.
Didn't know J.D. Souther, but I love to learn here.
J.D. Souther (born John David Souther, November 2, 1945 in Detroit, Michigan and raised in Amarillo, Texas) is a country rock singer-songwriter and actor, as well as a multi instrumentalist. He is well known both as a performer and as a writer and co-writer of hit songs for other artists, most famously Eagles and Linda Ronstadt.
Loved that song by him, and thanks for the introduction.
Dear Judy. (incidentally, Cary Grant never said: Judy, Judy,Judy) By Myself was great, however.
edgar, you and Barry hurry back.
Now a birthday boy, Garth Brooks.
