Elvis and the Wrestling Women USA

without comments

It’s strange what you find in your visitor’s logs -
this page was visted by someone in Memphis
who was searching for
“face sitting smother stories”.

perhaps Elvis is alive after all…..

Initiale BB - Brigitte Bardot

without comments

hort of taking a trip to Paris, this box set of songs by Brigitte Bardot is the next best thing.

I don’t speak much French and understand even less. . . but with Brigitte’s voice tripping its way through these songs, language is no barrier.

Brigitte was and is and always will remain
“Paris and France and the 1960’s” –
she is the eternal reminder of a truly happy and romantic and lighthearted time.

Dragostea Din Tei - jmcgready’s generic universe

Reviewer: Southern Slim “A Music Lover” (Memphis, USA) - See all my reviews
Glad the previous reviewer liked the CD but I must add that Haiducii is a woman - This version of the huge European smash has been battling the charts all over the world with Ozone (a boy band) who also do a version - Haiducci’s version is the better of the two so don’t be confused - in terms of voice and production this has got to be one of the zaniest (yes she actually yodels!!) club smashes of the decade. Buy it if you need some unabashed fun.

What a day…..

without comments

My manager had a death in the family,
a new guy started, the normal holiday madness
ensued - and the world kept spinning.

I think it’s the pain that has me being more Scroogish this year -
although I’m also becoming cognizant of it sooner than I’ve usually
caught it.

Lost myself in a book for a while on the bus ride home - tend to read
more non-fiction than fiction.
I’ll admit that fiction tends to give you the aura of the capital-W
writer and the artiste-ic halo,
but, perhaps due to my day job, I tend to go for the sequence of ideas
or procedures which are usually sifted from bushels of of 1st person
narrative chaff.

What a weekend!

without comments

Sunday’s shoot was good to have finished -
I’m still feeling the pain in my back from holding the standing bridge
position - have to begin working out more and/or redo the supports.

Paul and his wife were kind enough to drop me @ 30th st. station on
their way home, so after I got downtown, I checked out Tower Records.
So what did I buy? Read the rest of this entry »

Another Strange call 727-450-7736

without comments

727-450-7736 - Google Search

the number traces back to Clearwater, FL -
but since this is probably a telemarketer
calling around trying to find a fax carrier

the number is probably fake.
