Kate Bush - The Saxophone Song
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fexNR7nxk8s

You'll find me in a Berlin bar
In a corner, brooding
You know that I go very quiet
When I am listening to you
There's something special indeed
In all the places where I've seen you shine, boy
There's something very real in how I feel, honey
(Chorus)
It's in me, it's in me-and you know it's for real
Tuning in your saxophone
Doo-ba-doo-ba-doo
The candle is burning over your shoulder
Is throwing shadows on your saxophone
A surly lady in tremor
The stars that climb from her bowels
Those stars make towers on vowels
You'll never know that you had all of me
You'll never see the poetry you've stirred in me
Of all the stars I've seen that shine so brightly
I've never known or felt, in myself, so rightly
(Chorus)

Baron von Tollbooth / Your Mind Has Left Your Body


Baron von Tollbooth / Your Mind Has Left Your Body

Thank goodness it is Friday

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbTBasAaFpA

Baron von Tollbooth & the Chrome Nun is an album by Paul Kantner, Grace Slick, and David Freiberg from Jefferson Airplane. The album was released at the same time as Thirty Seconds Over Winterland. All the members of Jefferson Airplane make an appearance on the album, but on most of the tracks Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead performs lead guitar and Chris Ethridge of the Flying Burrito Brothers performs bass.

Notes: The album was recorded during November and December 1972.

The original release had a single sheet insert with musician information for each song. The lyrics and credits information was on the inner sleeve. It is well worth searching out an LP copy of this album for the full size artwork on the insert and inner and outer sleeves.

Baron Von Tollbooth & The Chrome Nun were nicknames given to Kantner and Slick by David Crosby.

Your Mind Has Left Your Body;
Paul Kantner - 12 string guitar, vocals
Grace Slick - piano, vocals
David Freiberg - keyboards, vocals
Jerry Garcia - steel guitar
John Barbata - drums
Jack Casady - bass
Mickey Hart - gongs, water phones
Jorma Kaukonen - lead guitar




Paul Kantner Your Mind Has Left Your Body lyrics

Lyrics & Music: Paul Kantner
You have left your body be aware if you care
Your mind has left your body and for this one moment you are
Under the polar ice cap in a place we call home
How is it there white bear like that where you grow...
Now all of you come back to here and now elsewhen to there
Move on out the other way where...
Do you find yourself floating growing there

Chorus
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow let it grow
You can exercise your mind on where you want to go
And y'can see the city lights flashin' two thousand miles below you
You can feel the sands of Zanzibar or pierce the nearest sun
Find out what and who you are and if you need to run

Chorus
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow let it grow
There is one moment in your life and it can come at any time
And you remember all of what went on from the instant you were born
Thru your early years
And if you can fasten on that moment and expand thru the afterglow
You can reverse your mind in time and travel back to when
The earth was formed
The sky was born
And the universe began

Chorus
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow let it grow
You have left your body
Return when you may
Save it for another day... beyond you

Paul Kantner Your Mind Has Left Your Body lyrics

20080111 Ozzy brings us this week’s Thank Goodness It’s Friday

Ozzy brings us this week’s Thank Goodness It’s Friday

January 11, 2008

It’s been a long week. Turn up the volume and settle back and enjoy. Whatever inference to current events may very well be up to your imagination… “Your lips are so cold I don’t what else to say.”

Ozzy Osbourne - No More Tears

Oh what the heck. A big thanks to Don Surber.

The light from Obama is a jolt of despair
He’s the first black candidate who has a prayer
Your levee of tears taught the people you might not come back
The Audacious Hope will bring another attack.

Your Billy told you that you’re not supposed to lose to strangers
Look in the mirror tell me do you think your life’s in danger here?
No more tears

Another vote passes and you lost big time
The deadline approacheth and you’re falling behind
You see Barack is gaining, will you lose the presidency?
You close your eyes as the pressure rises and you run out of money
No more tears

So now is it over? Will we just say good-bye?
I’d like to move on and make the most of the night
Maybe the Senate is not so bad a place
Your lips are so cold, what can you do to save face?
I never wanted it to end this way, before November
Believe me when I say the lesson is one to remember:
No more tears

Now play this and go back to work.

20071221 Thank Goodness It is Friday

Thank Goodness It's Friday

December 21, 2007

Be Careful Out There:

I received this is an e-mail… and laughed – and laughed. Hat tip: Grammy

IDIOT SIGHTING:

We had to have the garage door repaired. The Sears repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a "large" enough motor on the opener. I thought for a minute, and said that we had the largest one Sears made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower. He shook his head and said, "Lady, you need a 1/4 horsepower."

I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4. He said, "NO, it's not." Four is larger than two.." We haven't used Sears repair since.

IDIOT SIGHTING

My daughter and I went through the McDonald's take-out window and I gave the clerk a $5 bill. Our total was $4.25, so I also handed her a quarter. She said, "you gave me too much money." I said, "Yes I know, but this way you can just give me a dollar bill back."

She sighed and went to get the manager who asked me to repeat my request. I did so, and he handed me back the quarter, and said "We're sorry but they could not do that kind of thing."

The clerk then proceeded to give me back $1 and 75 cents in change.

Do not confuse the clerks at McD's.

IDIOT SIGHTING:

I live in a semi rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the DEER CROSSING sign on our road. The reason: "Too many deer are being hit by cars out here! I don't think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore."

From Kingman, KS

IDIOT SIGHTING IN FOOD SERVICE:

My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She asked the person behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg lettuce.

From Kansas City

IDIOT SIGHTING:

I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?" To which I replied, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?" He smiled knowingly and nodded, "That's why we ask."

Happened in Birmingham,Ala.

IDIOT SIGHTING:

The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged coworker of mine. She asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she responded, "What on earth are blind people doing driving?!"

She was a probation officer in Wichita,KS

IDIOT SIGHTING:

At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker. She was leaving the company due to "downsizing." Our manager commented cheerfully, "This is fun. We should do this more often." Not another word was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that deer-in-the-headlights stare.

This was a lunch at Texas Instruments.

IDIOT SIGHTING:

I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself and for the sake of her life, couldn't understand why her system would not turn on.

A deputy with the Dallas County Sheriffs office, no less.

IDIOT SIGHTING:

When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the drivers side door. As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "its open!" His reply, "I know. I already got that side."

This was at the Ford dealership in Canton, Mississippi

STAY ALERT!

They walk among us... and the scary part is that they VOTE

“Let me explain” October 12, 2007 Caption Contest

Thank Goodness It’s Friday

Please caption this picture.

“Thank Goodness It’s Friday” will be arriving a day early this week as I am on the road much of Friday this week…

This is something right up the alley of Attila over at the Pillage Idiot, but then again considering the amount of talent in the Maryland Blogosphere, I can only imagine – worry – what many of ya will come up with as for suitable caption for the photo above.

The photo was e-mailed to me by “King Harold II” of Westminster. This gentleman, who is otherwise a pillar of the community, great husband, and family man, is otherwise a rather sick and depraved individual. But that is the fodder for another column – at another time. I do not know whom owns the photo – or the circumstances.

How would you caption the photo?

20070928 Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire” by Ye Li.


Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire” by Ye Li.

Thank Goodness It’s Friday September 28, 2007

Ye Li has placed 120 images depicting the subjects of Mr. Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire.”

Hat Tip: Harold

If you are a Billy Joel fan, that is a bonus, otherwise, the video sure is fun – and a lesson in history to boot.

After you click here: “We Didn’t Start the Fire,” the video takes a moment to load.

Enjoy.

Actually, I enjoyed Ye Li’s version better that the “Billy Joel” version here:
