What can i say ?

I loved your post, your directness, bad spelling and most of all your sense of fun. I hope your just overloaded at the moment with life and need the break.
You know What UYK ! Your the second son ive lost today. My baby all of 29, 6 foot 1 tall moved the last of his possessions out today.
As the song says" I was alright for a while" Then i fell apart ,then i  tried to write it out of my system.
I will be sooooo lonesome  with  him not about, I  will  also miss your presence here son.

Love and warm hugs to you and yours.

Heres a beautiful song both for you and my son.

How in Gods name did the people of New Orleans cope ?
Mary Gaulthier wrote this song at that time. She explained  in concert to us how, she was in Hawaii when she heard about the disaster. Upper most in her thoughts was her Father. so she wrote this song.

Aah Daddycool,
Its frustrating but don't let them win  twice by  wasting your energy
on them. You did a good deed to write it out of your system.

Because of my brother being so sick this year, i hadn't time to check my own  bank statements until recently that is. I discovered
80 euro [ 120 dollars ] was  taken from my account every month this year till now. The insurance company had continued to take my money ,because the banks didn't cancel as requested. I had refused to take there insurance again this year because there premiums were astronomical. I had had no claims with them for years. But i had to email them [ insurance company ] my new policy to prove myself. There is something very frustrating  about this. Putting there hands in and taking my money. Security my A~~ with banks. There an absolute joke here at the moment.
But in my case i will get my money back all of 880 euro,[ about 1300 dollars].  Well  the cheque is on its way ? seeing is believing.

We live in hope.

Daddycool,

I cannot bear to see those power hungry greedy moguls doing what they do to kids.

Im just glad there not my kids. The beautiful young girl from Wales was far superior with her voice.

The public it appears are as manipulated as the acts. Yuk.

Now i best be leaving here ! I dont want to be the last post upsetting our handsome Zurf. lol

Goodnight from the Emerald.

Your right Daddy,

Learn in life nothing lasts forever. Everything changes at some point. Smile  and accept.

I felt the pinch many times, this is what i learned from it. All i ever worried about is long gone and forgotten. life still goes on.

Resistance is a bigger problem. It can stunt your ability to progress.

Ask genuinely  and you shall recieve.

Hi Phill,

What a very sad song."

" Grass in your hair, leaves in  the pockets of your coat".

Very revelatory i feel. Yes i get a feeling of lovers probably young.  Grass in my own hair back then ? Maybe [ to far back to remember ] but leaves i still have from one time in between the leaves of  books..

Lovely piece Phill. I looked to see was it up  on myspace , but no joy yet.
Ill check again soon.
