Ok so I'm sitting here at the computer tonight and I came across some more off the wall short stories that I did so I've been editing them all afternoon.. well there was that and I got hooked on a game of Big Kahuna Reef.. (Long Story, I won't go into it I promise.) so I'm thinking.. what am I forgetting to do?.. so I thinking no.. I took out the trash... No.. I'm doing the laundry.. and then... OH CHIT !! ITS Saturday night almost!! I'm supposed to put up some tunes!!.. well ok.. you got me.. I forgot. so I threw together a new list from Finetune but I didn't have time to do a list of contents. There's no theme to it, its just I bunch of tunes that I really got into.. so I hope you enjoy.. Laters.. I have some more editing to do.. I check back in in a bit.. have a rockin Saturday!

Once there was a fool ,
On capitol hill,
Who spoke the world over,
of great foolish tales.

He bellowed of terror,
both evil and dark,
And to protect us all from it,
With our rights we should part.

Some believed but most doubted,
His words were a lark,
But still the fool rambled on,
And continued to bark.

So crafty the liar,
But so clumsy the fool,
It was obvious to us,
He knew not what to do.

But the world turns on,
Much to the fools dismay,
For unemployment awaits him,
In two thousand and eight.

Seems Like it’s been flowing here for years, I can remember when it only seemed to be ankle deep, this little stream of ours. When Guys Like Prankster, Ice, Diesel, Hawk, Pop and even this ol Dragon, came to get ourselves in and out of mischief in these magical waters. but the women folk not to be outdone, often called court to order and we soon all returned to our places.. It has been fun, and full of amazingly talented people, it may be a little deeper now, and perhaps even a bit wider than before, but the people still make it the wonder that it is. We have grown here, as people, as friends, and in many ways, our personal growth here has been undeniable. Those who have no laughter in their lives, may laugh here, those who feel nothing may cry here, those who might never feel as though they belong anywhere, may come and belong. But no one will walk away from this place unchanged. Happy Birthday Blogstream.. Its been an honor to swim in your waters..

Every chance I get I try to tell people about the joys of blogging and what I get out of it. Time and time again I will hear, yeah but aren’t you wasting your time? Ummm… No.. that was my answer six months ago, that was my answer one year ago, that has been my answer from the beginning, and yes it is still my answer to this day. Yeah you run into problems from time to time sure, sometimes it gets silly and I'll laugh my ass off and sometimes it makes me want to pull my hair out by the roots. But as with anything in life you get through the rough spots. because you know there will be some things that will happen that will quickly remind you that yes it is worth the effort. There are people here that I will never forget,and as the Stream grows larger every day we may not communicate as often as we’d like, but we always know that the door is open when we do get the opportunity. This little writing community has gotten me through a few more than a few rough spots in real life, and writing about it was a big help. There are some here that offered me encouragement when I quit Drinking, more so than people that I know personally. So in that sense alone, I find coming online here several times a week, worthy of my time, after all, as everyone can attest to , Blogstream on Saturday night’s is the place to be. My new answer is? Blogging.. Try it baby! You’ll like it!
