Sometimes short cuts just don't work out

Next week in class we have to sign a song. I looked through all of CD's and mp3's looking for the shortest song to make it easier. I ended up picking "They Dance Alone" by Sting. I don't know why...I was just searching through music and this song called out to me. I should also tell you that it is 7 minutes and 10 seconds. So much for picking the shortest song. I think the shortest in my library was 1 minute 38 seconds. Most of my friends are doing country songs. (Sometimes I forget that I live in the south) or Inspirational songs. (Hello, Bible belt!) Anyway, I have been a Sting fan since...well...since I got my first Police album Reggatta De Blanc in 1979. It was a really tough choice finding a song suitable enough for me to sign without my hands cramping up.

    WOW....we DO share a brain. I was just commenting to Mark how much I love Police today while we were dining out at Applebee's.

    Syncronicity was playing, and I immediately thought about how much I love that entire album. :)

BSG Comes to an end?!

I am a HUGE fan of the new Battlestar Galatica (BSG). Sad to hear that they are coming to an end next year. Does it mean they get to Earth? Are the Cylons defeated? Or do they find a peaceful way to co-exist with the Cylons? OR...are they going to leave it in cliff hangers for future movies? Thank goodness for DVD's so that I can always get my BSG fix!

Independence Day!

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence. When reading the text it's difficult not to see how history repeats itself. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their CREATOR, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate, that Governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath s...

Hi-Tech Bed

So our Select Comfort Bed arrived today. So far so good. Although I think we are losing air (it's not staying at 100 after I fill). Not sure though. Tonight will be the real test. I think my sleep number is 35. When trying it out both in the store and at home that is where I'm not feeling any pressure on my hips or shoulders. Jerry thinks his number is around there too. I'm really hoping this will help with Jerry's back, shoulder, neck pains. He is so much better but he occasionally gets flare ups. No fun Oh yea...and the controller is Wireless. We can be gadget whores in our sleep too!
