Kane - No surrender (lyrics)

untitled

when life does not find a singer to sing her heart

she produces a philosopher to speak her mind.

(kahlil gibran)

PS: like i posted previously

how i spent my summer vacation

"reading, reading , reading"

sister mary elephant

london calling

our olympians are garbed in uniforms made in china with french beret's

are we going to compete, ask for a loan or to surrender?

(jay leno)

PS: soccer must have been invented by the french

why else keep your hands free other than to surrender

(curtis silwa)

The Eagles - Desperado

all relationships are finite

who was your bestest 1st friend?

where are they now?

who was your first girlfriend?

where is she now?

who was your next best friend or your next girlfriend

and where are they now?

(do you see where i am going with this?)

cherish

all your (past) associations

make new friends

Hell

even in  the catholic marriage ceremony "they" say

"till death do us part"

yet i know so many divorced and living...

all relationships are finite...

PS: be true to yourself

a baltimore chop

(frank deford continued)

living in new york and hating the yankees is like living in the vatican city and loathing the roman catholics:

the manager wears their # of championships on his back and promises to change when (not if) they win their next.

every team plays the national anthem before the game- the yankees suspend play during the 7th inning stretch so kate smith can sing "god bless america"

the yankee mascot. (fooled ya. Yeah, i know. the yankees don't have a mascot..they are too good for mascots. there's no crying in baseball and no laughing in yankee stadium.

so now, to honor america, let's all cheer for the boys in pinstripes.

yeah, a bronx cheer...

PS: jealousy mr. deford has reared her ugly green head...

i promise

i will finish the frank deford story...

(eventually)

time out

i spent my vacation

reading-reading-reading

(playing "catch-up")

glory be...

i'm still standing

wiggle room

why?

do you think?

president obama  put the affordable health care act under the auspices of the internal revenue service?

congress wanted to expand on their right to the commerce clause

the court said no

however

under the taxing rights

yes

copish?

a baltimore chop

by frank deford

next to satan, dream sequences in movies and calves liver, i dislike the new york yankees the most.

Actually, "dislike" is probably too nice a word, because unlike satan, dream sequences and calves liver, the yankees are elemental to my world, always around me, part of the air i breathe, the magnetic north of my GPS.

(to be cont'd)

((the oracle and simpson-bowles are on the squawk-gotta go learn something))

see ya

{i hope you all watched that}

{{hope you all see the tree of life}}

onward christian soldier...

in fact, i like just about everything new york except the yankees.

(it's like living in vatican city and liking everything but the roman catholics).

ha ha

i will offer more of mr deford's discourse later

(i've a candle to light)

PSS: taken from "Damn Yankees"

lost for words

a young lady approached the service desk:

"i bought some tilapia the other day and i usually read the label
but this time i didn't and i realized today that the fish came from china"

"the internet tells me that we should never eat things from china"

"would you please ask the seafood department to remove and discard
all products made in china-they are not safe"

Hey young lady- we sold a gallizion pounds of chinese tilapia last year and no one got sick

we can't sell fish from the long island sound-commercially because lilco has fucked up the waters

and you want to condemn the chinese?

PS: you exist on their borrowed money
