I'm just a wandering on the face of this earth Meeting so many people Who are trying to be free And while I'm traveling I hear so many words Language barriers broken Now we've found the key And if you want the wind of change To blow about you And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band. A thousand pictures can be drawn from one word Only who is the artist We got to agree A thousand miles can lead so many ways Just to know who is driving What a help it would be So if you want this world of yours To turn about you And you can see exactly what to do Please tell me I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band. ...

Poster Comment:Now this is the sound of AMERICA! Sung by some old farts and one black lady. I stumbled on this through one song on a compilation I'd bought on iTunes. I never knew who this guy was until today, just the sound. Poor out a little liquor for the studio musicians. Randy Van Horne From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Randy Van Horne (February 10, 1924 – September 26, 2007) was an American singer and musician.

This land is mine, God gave this land to me
This brave and ancient land to me
And when the morning sun reveals her hills and plain
Then I see a land where children can run free
So take my hand and walk this land with me
And walk this lovely land with me
Though I am just a man, when you are by my side
With the help of God, I know I can be strong
Though I am just a man, when you are by my side
With the help of God, I know I can be strong
To make this land our home
If I must fight, I'll fight to make this land our own
Until I die, this land is mine
I like to apply these lyrics to my land, America.
Only You

When I went away to college one of the guys who lived in the apartment across the hall told me he had once been turned down ten times in a row asking women to dance at a nightclub. I got the impression the women were trying to kill him. Ostracizing people and solitary confinement have always been the worst of punishments, worse than flogging but not as bad as crucifixion. “Why don’t you just die?!?!?” is what they were telling him. And all he was asking for was a dance. I’ve always remembered what happened to him, just the way I remembered a woman who told me she had been asked out by seven guys one weekend. Talk about an imbalance. Something’s very wrong here. ...

Dorothy Bush Koch, otherwise known as "Doro", daughter of George H.W. Bush, wrote a book in 2006 titled My Father, My President: A Personal Account of the Life of George H.W. Bush. (You can buy one on Amazon.com for one cent, while supplies last!) The 608 page book is favorable, of course, and gives many personal anecdotes about Bush senior and the Bush family; including the fact that the elder Bush likes to use e-mail to keep in touch with family members, and how they were allowed to take a special flight home after initially being grounded on 9/11/01. I had the opportunity to perouse the book recently and found an interesting tidbit in the photos section. Doro lists the caption ...
