I don't care too much for money, 'cuz money can't buy me love. |
|
Well, actually in certain venues it can buy love, love of a sort. We could ask Duke Cunningham.
This week it's going to be the lead story. I'm guessing the VILLAGE VOICE will be worth a look this week.
Some big changes ahead.

Good to see you, too. I hope the damn country gets thru this week. I have a feeling it's going to be a wild ride.

Never thought I'd be so relieved to be poor. I see the market falling, and the 47 cents in my pocket stays right where it is. I do feel for anyone silly enough to have significant savings in the market right now.

8. A lot of the stock exchange folks are far richer than I am, too, |
|
and a lot more intense. Or a lot more hypertensive, not sure which word I want.
Have you heard James Taylor's "The Money Machine" ?

(Money...)
Now you can measure your manhood by it You can get your children to try it You can bring your enemies to their knees With the possible exception of the North Vietnamese

10. Or how bout this oldie but goodie from Traffic- |
|
The percentage you're paying is too high priced While you're living beyond all you're means And the man in the suit has just bought a new car From the profit he's made on your dreams But today you just read that the man was shot dead By a gun that didn't make any noise But it wasn't the bullet that laid him to rest Was the low spark of high-heeled boys, high-heeled boys

Well, our weather has been terrible for the garden added to the fact that it was late and ill planned. Everything is kinda moist and rotting before I can even get it in. Yours?
Next year I will be ready.
Traffic, man what a band that was.

18. Tomatoes are still going strong. |
|
We kind of have a very long growing season here, so I've planted some new tomato plants, some zucchini, and I'm still hoping for something from my corn. I'm clearing some spots right now for my fall and winter stuff.
Yeah, I like Traffics early stuff, but I'm not much of a classic rock guy. For me it's the punk movement of the 70s and 80s as well as early Ice T and NWA and Public Enemy.

14. I believe it was in the very early 70s that I saw Traffic. |
|
I was just about 12 and if I remember correctly, and it's very possible that I don't if you know what I mean, they were with Argent and Humble Pie.

Money talks, it'll tell you a story Money talks, says strange things Money talks very loudly You'd be surprised the friends you can buy with small change They say it's the root of all evil They say gold is the king Money talks, you'd better believe it All that gold don't mean a thing Rich people, hear those pockets jingle Spare change, hear the down-and-outers cry Money talks, tip-toe up behind you Steal what they can, off the cuff or on the sly Money talks Money talks Money talks Money talks

17. Are you telling me that I've misunderstood those lyrics my entire life? |
|
I always thought they were singing: "I don't care to watch my money..."
:rofl: What a dope I am.
