I've never watched American Idol but that young man is as was stated there, a lump of coal that will become a diamond. Wonderful!!!!! Thank you polar bear ((((((you)))))

I know not all here agree to be a Christian is appealing to them but being one I can only go on personal experience, of which I am the authority of, and I don't have to worry that my leaders in the church will one day tell me I have to kill myself and as many innocents as I can to prove my loyalty to God. In that same vein of thought I believe that the Muslims that know the extremists amongst them are committing murder rather than godly actions will in time hopefully gain the strength as a whole to squelch the sick ones in their fold and prove they stand for something of life not death. Until that day, until at least enough of them say "enough is enough" the sick ones will continue to tarnish that faith and the 1/4th of the world now numbered among them will be looked poorly upon while some like these men and women in these articles will see the evil being taught them to perform and move towards the light. I can pray for it anyway.

What an awesome thread. Socks is certainly loved around here. :wub: SRV provided by David.....oh yeah! About those suits. :unsure: :P

Yes I do Sudo, ain't it something how things have changed. Now someone post after me cause it seems often after I post it just sits here. :unsure: All have a good day, I'm off for now........

That was fun. Ain't it cool tones that come out of that guitar, not to mention it's just plum peerrty. But don't ask Rick about playing it with his shirt off.

My eyeballs need to rest so was just heading away but honestly you are very skilled and your passion for the music is heard even by a bystander of sorts, as I know nothing of that type music.

With my family history I can't risk not having them done yearly, as uncomfortable as they are to have done. Pap smears are also very important. Guys have their own things to attend to I realize.

And then there's always the likes of Adam Yahiye Gadahn who aids Bin Laden in his blinders vision that if we all become Islam there would be an end to the war in Iraq and we'd all live happily ever after.

And you know I want this. :B)

I love chopped liver. :) But I don't know the singer and Ala has brought such a wonderful selection to the board I wouldn't know where to begin to guess. It's very lovely, very much so.And I do appreciate big band music, I just don't prefer it as my listening music, but I can hear quality and that was quality of StGeorge's without question.

What's that? ;)

StGeorge, Even though I might not lean towards that type music I must tell you that was simply awesome! Thank you Sudo for bringing it here for us.

It's actually rather interesting. Thank you.~~And I love bulwinkl's new avatar also.

How fun! Thanks so much for the pictures y'all. :) And no doubt about it Belle, I'd love to get together. We'll have a Florida gig we will.

Does she have her CD for sale, is so how can I buy one? PM if you'd prefer also.

I can only hope that someday I get to hang out with y'all. Sounds like a great time, be it short, was had by all. :)

She is incredible. I know I told you I loved her on that first song you brought us, but dang she has a beautiful voice, and her music and how she puts it all together, the guitar (oh yeah!), it is a wonderful piece of music. Please tell her again for me that she is amazing.

I did to. :B) Socks,

Socks, One of my favorites from back then. Made me feel young again. Thanks much. :)

It is indeed a sad state of affairs how our elderly are looked upon and treated. As if their value is less because they are not a spy youngin' with visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads. Rather they are words of wisdom from experience, and councel of how to live the fullest and attend to what is important and toss aside the little stuff that youth still find to be earth shattering. Not that youth is a bad thing, heck I wouldn't mind some of it back but our elderly (myself approaching) have so much more to offer mankind because they've been there and done that and could teach us how to stand on their feet and take it further than even they did if we only tried and allowed them our honest hearts and time. I watched the care Ted had for his mother and how he never treated her with anything other than respect she had earned. I found I was less patient than he was and have learned about myself due it and have made some changes in my thinking and even in my life. This Saturday I will be in training at Tampa General for a service I will be providing each week and I understand many of the folks I will be serving will be the elderly. I thrill at the opportunity to be with them. I hope our nation begins to respect the elderly and learn from them, it would be a tragic thing if we didn't. (perhaps they can teach me to spell)

Most awesome! Your family must be flying as high as she can about now.

Dot, You're a good soul. And no doubt understood his intent pretty accurately. ex70'shouston, Sorry about your loss and your memories, I know Satori and am certain he meant no personal attacks to those who have lived through loss, he knows loss himself.

:wacko:
