Well, other than that did you like it? >(;^{]
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Lord Acton The human herd stampedes on the fields of facts and the valleys of truth to get to the desert of ignorance. Saman Mohammadi "If a politician found he had cannibals among his constituents, he would promise them missionaries for dinner." Mencken "..if the military is going to defend our freedoms, then we need freedoms to defend. Our freedoms must be restored before the military can defend them..." Lawrence M. Vance Você me trata desse jeito só porque eu sou preto. Junior (my youngest son)
I like it.
Thank you Fred. I thought it was pretty funny.

Actually, I did. And, get this: My barber and friend for many years once told me that his favorite song from his youth is Bluebird Of Happiness by Jan Peerce. "Bluebird of Happiness" is a song composed in 1934 by Sandor Harmati, with words by Edward Heyman and additional lyrics by Harry Parr-Davies. Harmati wrote the song for his friend, the tenor Jan Peerce, the leading singer at Radio City Music Hall. Peerce recorded it twice: in 1936, under the name Paul Robinson, with the Radio City Music Hall Orchestra conducted by Ernö Rapée[1]; and on 7 June 1945, under his own name, with the RCA Victor Symphony Orchestra conducted by Sylvan Levin.

Ever heard the song, I Heard the Bluebird Sing? It is an old song but one I like very much. A brother and sister duo (Maxine and Jim Ed Brown sang it).

Well, RAISE MAH RENT! I learn sumthin new every day! I didn't know that Jim Ed sang with his sisters. I knew there was a country singer by that name but I didn't know anything else about him until now. Thanks for the song. I watched him and Maxine and Bonnie sing too.

You're very welcome, glad you liked it.
