You Belong To Me

-



Nostalgia...cats...as we often do on the weekends...go to YouTube and watch and listen to music...one that gets us every time...is a song called 'You Belong To Me'...it's a boomer song...but, turns out...it really was written back in 1952...made famous then...by Jo Stafford...you ever hear of her?...others sang it...covered it...like Patti Page...OK, know her?...and the infamous to me, Dean Martin...one of them Rat Pack guys...BUT, our favorite is by a group of the 60's...the Duprees...featuring the Voice (Tommy Petillo)...it is a must find and watch (and listen) to...it is one of your homework assignments for the day...

Carly Simon also recorded a song of the same name, but totally different tune...Taylor Swift (you know her?) had another, but the TO, switched to With...and it is a total diff song, too...

You know of all groups that covered the song...an instrumental rendition stood out, too...by Santo and Johnny...them guys, who did 'Sleep Walk'...yea, before your time...

Elon showing his DOGGIE style to all the Federal workers he can...making them document what they have done the past week...if not satisfactory to him, or whomever he says makes the judgment...then YOU are 'FIRED!'...ah, bringing back the merit system of pay...which means, you have to buddy up to your boss or supervisor...kiss arse...the school system I taught at, way back when....suggested that for us, too...never came to fruition...

Perhaps, he should do this for the one and only F-Elon...let's document what he does...here goes...wake up, throw a comb across my hair...ah, that's the Beatles, dude...go to hairdresser...paint my face...order a Big Mac and Diet Coke... check my tee time...find my MAGA cap...head on out to the course...play 18 holes, with security keeping my rock in play...call Elon...checking on what he is doing at the White House...have lunch...Big Mac and Diet Coke...wake up Melania...it's past noon...put on suit and fly to DC...talk to the only reporter left in the room....all the rest have been exported (or deported)...have dinner, Big Mac and Diet Coke, with large fries...meet with Elon...ask who is he firing today...write derogatory statements on truth social...call it a nite...take face off...

Note from Elon, 'hey big boy, nice memo, you are keeping your job'...

Boss and I had a notion to hit the Saturday Market in Little Italy...kinda cool...we went via the trolley...which made me wonder, how many of the blokes on it, actually paid...you know what I mean...do not smile, do not look at anyone...the mantra...then the market...5 or so blocks of most anything you would want...except eggs...weird...the place was SLAMMED...which made me wonder...in Europe, at their markets...do the masses walk on the left as they wander about...as here, the peops walk on the right...got some bread, coffee, and a plant...trolleyed back...life in the city...


Yes, it is Sunday...and for sure...Monster Sudoku time...think it's the 5 star one today...a very long shot for success...

The trump criminal trial is now set to go on Monday ...try as he may, he couldn't get it delayed...how many tries?...4?...it's a go, Bozo.. .and now, it is Perry Mason time ...does he have Perry?...I see he is without the lady attorney he had in his last court case ... a thought for us all...seems like whenever we are watching the 'famous people' in court, the prosecution has a tougher job ahead of them ...we shall see...and the item of 'odor' has emerged again...what the heck?... Bizarre outside the courthouse...a guy set himself on fire...he died ...the last time I can recall something like this... was in South Vietnam, with the Buddhist Monks doing the same, in the Vietnam War...egads ....we just don't value life enough... Congress...it's another odd session...with House Speaker Johnson (Mr Peepers) going against MAGA, and trying to get $ for Ukraine and Israel ...yes, MTG is not only fighting that, but attempting to get him fired from his job...why o...

Good morning all, from the great state of Oregon...this whole trip is about FRIENDS!...meeting up with peops we have been with over our years in the PNW...and for Boss's reunion....the opening act was a combo party of the two at this pad, a bar, called Johnny's...simply said, it was fun... The stories were there, the faces remained the same...and it tickled moi, that so many FRIENDS showed up...unfortunately, I did not get enough time to talk to all, please forgive me...when you go back some 60 years, my memory does fade a tad...well, and so does their's...ha ha...believe me, it was worth the trip... Boss was one of the belles of the ball...yes, she still looks great...you know that....well, the rest of her class did not know that, until last eve...she was flitting (flirting) about so...which made me smile...and that is only the beginning of it...the REAL reunion is tonight...one of my FRIENDS reminded me that is the gals reunion...which I think is most reunions...it is for...

When the thesaurus ran it's new version...it highlighted the word 'oration'...and there it was ... President Barack Obama...and then there is more..... see...Michelle Obama ...these two have the fundamental prowess of giving speeches...at the right time...at the right place... No better example of this, than last night at the DNC...each were marvelous...of course ...it's what people, special people, like these two...do...carry a message across the Nation...that we all can not only understand, but agree with... For seemingly years, the Horse has said...that if Michelle O wanted to be in the White House, AGAIN...this time as the President, and not the wife...she could ...however, for right now...she is supporting the right choice...for this time of the history of our country.... Tonight, we hear another exceptional orator...President Bill Clinton ...it's almost like taking a class in college...Speech 101...BTW, I was turrible at it...just in case you were wondering......
