I think he got a little off count in the 3rd verse, but he picked it back up and finished strong. I’m sure we have more songs he can play; he just did one today.
That’s what you see when Tom sleeps an unusually long time.
Wow that is a mass of moss.
Album PagesThe peace of a poetic mind is not in the execution of an observation, but in the act of observing to begin with.
The sky was milky blue, with clouds of perfect white,
I knew that it would gently fade, into a misty night.
A day of quaint perfection, to steep our memories,
Of laughter, hands in hands, and smiling in the breeze.
I always love a perfect day. I gather all I can.
Sometimes I have to bend the rules, to make them fit my plan.
A little bit of rain is not a killer of the day.
And splashing through the puddles is a way to make it play.
Even snow can sometimes be a pleasure to enfold,
Perfection isn’t measured by the heat or by the cold.
It’s measured by the moments that are strung up just like pearls,
As are the gilded seconds that young men enjoy with girls.
Every day’s an album page with images to hold.
The sunshine seems much brighter, and the colors much more bold.
We turn the page with sadness til we get a chance to look,
Back upon the memories we cherish in our book.

And the one who welcomes a prophet, because he is a prophet, will receive a prophet's reward.
I can’t imagine Pat even being flustered by a minor mistake. He would finesse it into whatever he was playing.
He is confident and accomplished, and he is an asset to any musical group. Tell him I said so. Two bits sez he responds with: “I know.”
;o]
Thanks, Bob...it is happily placed in the Undead Thread File, though it takes me much longer to put it there, since it is now and forever on a Slave...
I think the Mormon Prophet is a very funny man.
I wonder how his wives enjoyed his profit-sharing plan?
The real advantage of a time-sharing plan is having the time to enjoy it.
So I have heard...but have also dismissed!

This is the outcome of today’s SAT sample question. I’m one of the 34%. Bill didn’t report whether he got it right, but his hair is perfect! (Well, it’s not, actually, and Jamie-our-hairdresser will be working at Cub Scout Day Camp all week and can’t trim him up. I know it will gnaw like a fox at his vitals ...)
Pat handled himself very professionally. Next time we’ll give him amplification so more people can hear him. This was a test run.
I can’t help thinking that Joseph Smith’s or Brigham Young’s wives might have been just as happy that he had other options. Being married to one of those guys might just have meant a meal ticket and a room.
Except when Brigham Young was played by Charlton Heston, of course ...
Bill is SUPER-scillious.
As the mother of two formerly teenage children. I can say, without a doubt, that NO barber/haircutter/salon worker can ever make a guy as handsome, sexy, appealing, or intoxicating as the guy thinks he is. Hairdresseers need to give up on that...it aint gonna happen! LOL!
I wouldn't know anything about women having to share their male companionship. I'd probably have to make something up.
Lots of women were left widows on the trek West, and in order to give them “respectibility” many LDS men married them in order to take care of them, and not allow the women to suffer from being a “widow” and being “available.” It was not done in a “boastful manner.” It was done to help the widows and children survive for the next generation.
Tom has some soap that claims he’ll get “unlimited female attention” if he uses it. Shannon thinks he smells good ... maybe like a food source ...
A realistic, if not romantic, way of dealing with the situation at hand.
Pat is reading “Bluegrass Banjo for the Complete Ignoramus” and playing the songs on ukulele. Maybe he’s a genius!
I have a query that normally I would not place on open forum, but I need as much input as I can get from as many sources as possible. ANY input is welcomed!
Recently, my DIL told me she and my son wanted my info for “insurance purposes.” She seems to be worried about who will pay the bill in my demise. Until my son married her, there was never a question about my death/burial, etc.
I am unsettled about this because it is the first time I have been “put on the spot” about my longievity.
My question at this time is this: Do I allow this “newcomer” (she’s REALLY smart, Ma) to upset my future, or do I tell her and my son to worry about themselves?
In the last 30 years, this has never been a subject betwween my son and I so I am curious as to whether I should allow her to dictate MY future.
FYI: when I was 23, I had the feeling I was going to die, and took out a policy on my life for my son, who was two at the time. Within two months, I was in a car accident that nearly took my life, and if my son had been with me that day, he would have died.
Needless to say, there is “bad mojo” on me being insured.
Anyone have any ideas?
I’ll be back online in the AM to read the feedback.
HELP!
