Good evening/morning, radu. Look at you all dressed up and ready for Christmas. Are you cold too? Everybody, all across the states, is colder than me.

Good night and sleep well, Star. Thanks for playing tunes for our troops and vets.

I love Homer and Jethro....d:o)

[El Gran Salseron]

Last spin of the night, folks. Hope you enjoyed and see you tomorrow.....after the football games! :-)

 

Genre:  Rumba/Jazz

 

Artist:  Various  ( This song is on a CD I had laying around loose with no cover.  I have no idea as to how I came into its possession.  I have the individual artists' names but not the name of the group.  The name of the CD is "Afro-Cuban Project." )

 

Song Title:  Rumbata

 

Translation:  Rhumba

 

General Theme:  He's singing about how wonderful the rumba is.

 

Side Note:  A "rumbata" is the main percussion instrument in this type of music.  Turn up the volume.  The file has been edited.  The slow and boring start has been removed.  By the end of this rumba you'll be accidentally knocking over furniture.  If you don't like the percussion and rhythms in this song then you are denying your own primal genes and/OR you have cheap speakers.  :-)

Wow...you are up late!

[EsmeraldaA]

Did almost everyone left Ma?

[radu]

Glad to hear things are going well!
I'm finally getting Christmas things together for the family...........the Troops came first. :-) That got me in the Christmas mood.

The kitties are still all alive and well. Lance is a bit perturbed right now. He had his surgery yesterday and isn't very happy with me at all. *snicker*
Valar has his turn Monday. That catches us up again...........til the next newbie shows up. *sigh*

You should know me better....these critters are MORE than well-fed! LOL! I need to post a pic of The Rotund One if I can find it. No missed meals for him. That durned cat weighs 16 pounds!!!!!

But NO CHOK-LIT for the kitties. The chok-lit is MINE!!!!!

[radu]

Howdy LUV W! *HUGZ*
It HAS been a while. It's been kinda crazy here and I haven't gotten to just sit and relax at the Canteen.
Takin' advantage of the opportunity tonight. :-)

How've you been?

[Kathy in Alaska]

No doubt..LOL!! My explanation was rather dull and boring. d:o)

[luvie]

Been good! I'm about to have to go for tonight, though...I gotta get up early tomorrow for work at the *groan* mall!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Guess what? I saw the Bare Naked Ladies in a Christmas concert with Anne Murray on tv. It was a great show.

[radu]

Hiya Kathy! *HUGZ*
Are we cold?

Yep! 21 degrees and falling. BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!
Who turned the heat off??!!!!

[El Gran Salseron]

Yes, as you know, I am the captain in this house. I set my own hours and go to sleep when I am good and ready to go to sleep.....after the admiral gives me permission. Tonight she was in a giving mood so she let me stay up late and entertain the troops. She said that if I fill out the reports correctly tomorrow then I can stay up late tomorrow night, too.

[radu]

EEEEEUUUUUU!!! Gotta work at the mall? I feel for ya! Not much fun this time of year.

I THINK I might actually get to sleep in a little in the morning, for a change. And a welcome change it will be! LOL!

You get a good night's rest so you'll be better able to survive the "fun". :-)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Trace Atkins on the way.
