Emptyings~~

Been too long since I have been able to be here, as my computer is still down(!) but Geek Squad is coming next week, and hopefully I will be up and running again. Though I have found more constructive ways to spend my time sans computer, and plan on utilising that time in the same way when the computer is running again, I miss blogging, and will be back to my regular musings and abusings (for better or worse!).
So with a tip o'the head, here is just a smattering of what has been occupying my thoughts these past few weeks.
~ Oh, sorry, my bad; Harry Belafonte's not dead??
~ If a white mayor had proclaimed that he wanted his city to be all vanilla, do you honestly think that the press would have given that mayor a pass, as they have to that nutball Nagen?(sp)
~ What a slap to anyone with sensibility and a soul to compare this Congress to plantation owners. Seems it took a village of idiots to raise Hillary.
~ So Theo is back in the Sox fold; time will tell, for me at least, as to whetHer this is a sage move or not. I just hope that he doesn't decide to whine and run everytime has a bad bout of PMS.
~ Whether there is an R or an I after his name, Christy Mihos gets my vote. Go, Christy, go!!
~ Tom Reilly......HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Oh, and Tommy? Good bit of lip quivering ala Bubba- how pathetic. Why not try being a man once in a while?

Appropo and oh-so-fab Clash song....

(strummer/jones) Train in Vain
Say you stand by your man
Tell me something I don’t understand
You said you love me and that’s a fact
Then you left me, said you felt trapped
Well some things you can explain away
But my heartache’s in me till this day
Chorus
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
All the times
When we were close
I’ll remember these things the most
I see all my dreams come tumbling down
I won’t be happy without you round
So all alone I keep the wolves at bay
There is only one thing that I can say
Chorus
You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Now I got a job
But it don’t pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
But without all these things I can do
But without your love
I won’t make it through
But you don’t understand my point of view
I suppose there’s nothing I can do
Chorus
You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me?
Did you stand by me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
