Well, I'm finishing up my 4th shot of Jack, it's Friday night, alone again, naturally ... watched a great documentary on Netflix called "Death by China" ..

"Summer Breeze, Makes Me Feel Fine, Blowin' Thru The Jasmine in My Mind" ..

"Freedom's Just Another Word For Nothin' Left To Lose" .. "When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose. "

"Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange a walk on part in the war, for a lead role in a cage? " ..

"Every pleasures got an edge of pain, pay for your ticket and don't complain." ..

Random quotes running thru my head .. I'll leave it with you that way, kids

"Freedom's Just Another Word For Nothin' Left To Lose" ..

Old songs. I can hear them, just reading the words. Thank you.

Gone for a few days and there's 50 posts to catch up on. Verbose is a word that comes to mind.

Sent with my arthritic thumbs with proofreading help from the hound!

My favorite years are NOW.

My favorite years are NOW.

I live by the philosophy that any day above ground is a good day .. however, if I could turn back the backache, joint creaking, feet hurting, arthritis, low energy level days and other general issues, it would be a bit better ..

 

[DavidOck]

Heck, I just see those as memory triggers for all the fun I had...

OMG that was SO funny! My daughter went through a phase where she and her friends wouldn't eat "anything that had a face". I wouldn't have had a problem with it if they'd really thought it through, but their reasons had no basis in reality. I used to tell her she didn't have a problem eating vegetables because she couldn't hear them scream. Boy do I wish I'd known about this clip back then!

Early in 1971 I dropped out of college after 3 semesters in order to find myself. When I do, I'm going back. I'm retired now, so I've got time to think about what I want to be if I grow up.

 

[DavidOck]

Why would you want to grow up? I'd always hoped it was optional....

Why would you want to grow up? I'd always hoped it was optional....

If it happens, I want to have a plan in place.

 

[DavidOck]

A plan? That's so adult and ...grown up...

 

[Janet H]

A plan? That's so adult and ...grown up...

But I would suspect it would be a flexible plan, subject to change on any whim.

If I were flexible, I wouldn't have to change due to pain!
