Hallelujah Song



This is a favorite song of mine. I used it at the the high school awards assembly last spring.

Goodbye, good luck, good riddance

Not my favorite president; proof that it is not enough to mean well, or be a nice guy, or have a good heart, or be someone you'd feel comfortable hanging out with. To be president of the most powerful nation on earth, you need to know what you are about. Here's hoping President Obama will possess the wisdom and know-how to get the job done. I'm not sure how this time we managed to elect a capable man who got where he is by his own ability, not his mommy and daddy's money or influence. Every now and then Americans surprise me in a good way.

For aches and pains


I know just how she feels. I love the promise on this one. I wonder if it worked as well as promised and what was in the bottle.

I found this great image on a 15 CD clipart collection I am slowly working my way through. This one is a keeper!

After a good night's rest (liniment-free) I wondered about the target demographics for this product. If it is only circus women who fall off horses . . . they can't have sold much liniment. Today's advertisers may be more savvy, but this is still a funny ad, and she's showing quite a bit of leg for that day, so it may also demonstrate the tried and true technique: sex sells!
