The New Hobbit Hole

[Corin Stormhands]

This whole thing with the "Under God" thing has made me think more about my rights and refresh what I have learned in school about the constitution.

Same here. I've been involved in politics/government for almost the last 20 years, and sometimes I get really tired of all of it and want to go do something "normal." But then I get reminded why we fight for the things we fight for. I'm about to get back on my soap-box and start finding an outlet for my commentary again...

If we don't stand up on our soap-boxes and fight for what we believe in, who will stand up in our stead? A good reminder to America to wake-up and quit being lazy about our rights.

Thanks for getting the name of that woman

You're welcome! ;) After following a few more links, it seems her version was the hit country version... also made it to the mid-50s on the pop charts, back in 1971.

one by Steppenwolf with "Magic Carpet Ride"

Rock out!

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Congrats!

Thank you!

I think I need to get out of this building

It sounds like the folks in your building have a lot of non-work troubles to distract them... must be very difficult at times.

Hullo all...just got back from a meeting at the Pentagon...the idjits finally broke my streak...I've been in NOVA for two years and this was the first meeting I've had to attend in the "Five-Sided Insane Asylum"...people stared at me slack jawed when I told them...I was hopin' to go the full three years...

I've been trackin' the conversations after I left yesterday...No more Gomer references...if ya know what's good fer yuh!

[Overtaxed]

Whadya mean? Gomer has a great singing voice!

He can even sing a capella!

[g'nad]

What are you singing???

It's a new arrangement by Fernando Ortega of an old spiritual... Give me Jesus...Very simple accompaniment, simple tune...very effective. Thanks for the offer to play with me. Listen to it here:

I prefer to sing a capella, or with a simple accompaniment...i.e. piano or acoustic guitar...

Ol' Jimbo is also a rump ranger...

Hullo all...just got back from a meeting at the Pentagon...

Well I am impressed... I was out cleaning up dog poo while you were doing that!

[2Jedismom]

What key is it in?

[g'nad]

Look! Over there!

Great head fake! Nice technique!

[g'nad]

Thought that was just a rumor...mean, mean, mean.

Nope...it's a fact, fact, fact... he lives with his...umm...buddy, in Hawaii...

[2Jedismom]

Pretty tune!

[g'nad]

I was out cleaning up dog poo while you were doing that!

I have a gif for that... would it be out of line?...

Don't be impressed...it was rather anti-climactic...

[Corin Stormhands]

Thanks for the url. I'll listen tonite. Tells me I need a new Real Player and I can't do that here...(or yahoo, or ICQ or....)...sigh...

But I love that song. We used it a couple of years ago in our Easter Production (you should come down some time).

Hey g'nad, any chance I'll run into you at PK this weekend?

[HairOfTheDog]

Oh let me be impressed! It is so rare that I get to be impressed!

[g'nad]

Ya like it? I've done a couple of his songs, always get a great response...I've been told I sing his music well...we have the same range...well, I my voice is a little lower... I'm a true bass, but I can eek out a second tenor if necessary...

I worked in DC for 8 years. I'd rather have your job.
