This morning I woke up with a Merle Haggard song in my head.
Are the good times really over for good lyrics.
***I wish a buck was still silver.
It was back when the country was strong.
Back before Elvis; before the Vietnam war came along.
Before The Beatles and Yesterday,
When a man could still work, and still would.
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?
Are we rolling down hill like a snowball headed for hell?
With no kind of chance for the Flag or the Liberty bell.
Wish a Ford and a Chevy,
Could still last ten years, like they should.
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?
I wish coke was still cola,
And a joint was a bad place to be.
And it was back before NixonObama lied to us all on TV.
Before microwave ovens,
When a girl could still cook and still would.
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?
Are we rolling down hill like a snowball headed for hell?
With no kind of chance for the Flag or the Liberty bell.
Wish a Ford and a Chevy,
Could still last ten years, like they should.
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?
Stop rolling down hill like a snowball headed for hell.
Stand up for the Flag and let`s all ring the Liberty bell.
Let`s make a Ford and a Chevy,
Still last ten years, like they should.
The best of the free life is still yet to come,
The good times ain`t over for good.***
Good morning.
Good morning. I’m going to start packing my travel suitcases today. That way I’ll know to pack everything else for storage. HA!
That is perfect. Plenty of energy in those foods. Thanks.
What I am about to tell you is something youve probably never heard, nor will ever read in history books. I believe that I am an eyewitness to history. I will not tell you that the German chancellor took Austria by tanks and guns. I will not distort history.
We Austrians elected him by a landslide 98% of the vote. Ive never read that in any American publication. Everyone thinks that the Germans rolled in with tanks and took Austria by force. Not at all........
I read that a couple of days ago. Commend it to everyone. Very powerful lesson in that text!
Good evening. Hope your power is on and steady.
This wasn't.
Came back on about an hour ago. There's a lot of air and dirt in the line now.
The electricity just blinked off and on. Not a good sign.
Rats.
Well, we may have one or two liberals around here, but most of us are very conservative.
excellent! I stand in awe.

thanks
