Don't take this too seriously.......but it's a great song... Hank III....Candidate for Suicide....... Might almost ring funny if the words didn't ring so true....I have been there......ya see, if some of your who were not around during my last soul bearing......my brother did the deed. He jumped off of a bridge just moments before I got there. I got to see him in the morgue.......was not pretty. So when I talk about suicide, give me a little slack, because I know whereof I speak. So....I am entitled to play this song....and subtitle it. And, as the song goes......the more that I get old......... "I've been busted up and bitten, antisocial, depressed and cursed..... Hope I am feeling better when I'm riding in that hearse......and all my emotions have left me, and I no longer hurt. Oh, yeah, I'm a candidate for suicide, 'cuz I'm burned out and too far gone.......I'm a candidate for suicide 'cun no matter what I do, it seems wrong.......I hurt the ones I luv......and I never laughed that much. Well I hope I feel better when I'm ridin' in that hearse....and all my emotions then have left me, and I'm no longer hurt" "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I think she be my baby, but she won't quite commit..... Maybe she's gone and thought the better of it. Wish she'd tell me what is or isn't what's mine.... Wish my baby would tell me what is and isn't quite mine. She's a long, long way from being right here,,,,, This long distance loveing's got me feeling quite queer. She says she loves mand and all. But the meaning'w quite clear.. She says helloooo daddy, could you please be right here. She needs a lover badly, and I could be so dear. She's a long-off lover and I love her so dear, she could be a live-in love if only she were here and the holder of my hearthrob if she could be so near. She's my long-off lover with my heart held I fear. She might understand this.......but, then, most erverybody always understood Hank...... Lonesome Blues.... I shall sleep tonight thinking of you...........'cuz, she's long gone, and I got the lonesome blues. But that's OK...... This I know is true.......Someday.Someday you'll find that I'm not there.

Best transcription I could find from the original 78...... Ready to Meet.....Tha Angel of Death? One of the best Hank ever sang........ You judge....you won't get a turn later. Unfortunately, I can't find a version that II or III ever recorded.....they should both have had the guts. Did find a slightly slower version by Sr., though.... Sr....no backups.....Angel of Death.... "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

OMG.....went off on Hank Williams, ran into II and III along the way,,,,somehow sidetracked into a 50 yo hitler indoctrination cartoon, and then back to more Nazi crap..... Yes, I am an old, god fearing white boy......but I am NOT a Nazi or supremicist of any type. Just enjoy the flag and the rights it gives me...... THOSE I will gladly discuss. And fight for. You'll just have to bring it to my door, as I don't get out as much as I used to. Are we clear on these things? Because I would hate to waste any more of jocelyn's time debating past issues. Don't like my Liberace posts.......bring it on......LOL. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Oldest post I can find of Joan and Bobby......before they drifted apart.... From 60 something....... Lesse,,,,I was born in '57, and became aware in the late '60s.......If anybody can find an older clip on youtube, I would cherish it. Please do indulge me if you have one. I have 2 vintage copies of Joan's first album on Vanguard Records.....One in mono, the other in stereo. The released them in that day due to the limited availability of stereo pickups....and the mono ones would just tear the grooves outta the stereo tracks. But, most of you were not there, and would not know that I suppose. Turntables, pickup carts, and such......all will be lost when I go, like tears in the wind........ And that is getting to be an old reference too. Soon, I fear nothing will be left of me, save my posts here. You would do well to archive then. I have shared much, spared little, and chose this as my space to share it all. The things I have seen and shared, the music above all, little treasures I have bared, yours to share or shun. From Les Paul to Peter, Paul, and Mary, back to Bob and down to that day at Alpine Valley when I lost Stevie Ray Vaughn. It's all recorded here.......post by post, since day one......just click on my name.....it will bear all. I hide nothing......nor wish to. When I go, and it will be sooner than I wish.....this is what I will have left. I will leave you my legacy.....such as it is. Now, my bookmark file might be worth something.....to the right or wrong person...... Candyman.....as Clint would say.....Oh, yeah. I got this from about 50 different mixes......the best one by far. Now you know how the kittyman works.......you see, I watched each and every minute of every footage of film I could get.....until I was sure that I had the one and only 'best of show'........Yeah, they still spoofed the 'panty drop' line......even in this one. But, the video clarity and sound quality gets it he kitty's best rating........ They just dropped their panties........just covered it up with a trombone slide. It's not hard, just google Candyman and you will get your fix. Next question? Now you know how I work. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

And just after I posted all that, I ran across this.... Another Candyman remix.................best sound ever....and I do luv thoses shorts she wears.. I once bought my gurl a pair of 'b' jeans, just so I could see them around her hips. Wanna see? I'll link ya...... "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

And.....just in case you think the kittyman blows smoke outta his as........ This is the closest cut I could find......at least has some of the original vocals. And the original trumpet solo......they kept that, at least. I used to be able to find the old Andrews Sisters original from '58.........but it is lost now. And, if I recall, Julie, the eldest, died shortly after the cut. Or maybe that was her sister, Trixie........or......the youngest.....I just cannot remember anymore. Maybe you eldsters can refresh me....... You know, my memories grow short these days.....I told you that. Her sisters survived the cut. At least one of them did not, as I recall.......it was her last song. Help me out here........please. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Only open thread I could possibly post this in........ "I like DEAD offenders......." This is not politics, it is reality. Best gun up, my friends..... The recent election has let some of the pressure off, but it will build up agian. Ted on gun ownership. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Mark, come on now, dead is not good whichever way you look at it. If this gets too heavy it will be hidden, you know that. And what about the greater good, and common sense? The criminal justice system in this country has gone amok. People who should be in prison are out on vacation. What part of Ted's argument do you not understand????????

What part of Ted's argument do you not understand???????? The part where every citizen can take justice into their own hands and deliver capital punishment at a whim. The part where every citizen is armed to the teeth and the streets become some insane version of a Sam Peckinpaw movie.(probably spelled the name wrong) The part where a multi millionaire can advocate for such craziness on the streets while he is one of the few priviledged elites who can afford to hide behind walled properties and hire protection from the idiots he's encouraging outside.

What part of Ted's argument do you not understand???????? A nation with a state that passed a "Make My Day Law." Did I make your day because I looked at you, as you perceive it, the wrong way? Because I said something you didn't understand , and you took it the wrong way? Is that why you pulled your gun? Did I make your day? I'm sorry you have such a thin skin. Nah. I don't. I'm dead! |

And what about the greater good, and common sense? You are right the criminal justice system is amok. People who shouldn't be in prison are executed in Texas! |

I happen to subscribe to Ted's attitude 100%. Wild west? Hardly. Instant justice? Perhaps. A few injustices? Our current system does that. The world around us does not allow for indecision at times. There is a reason the Colt .45 was dubbed 'the peacemaker'. And the old saying is still true.......'When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns'. Are you really saying that's what you want? Not me. I also happen to be a life member of the NRA. Yeah, I'll give up my gun. 'When they pry it from my cold, dead fingers'. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |
