1976 Songs: Cowboy Song

Four Walls @FourWalls (83882) • United States 4 Mar

You kids who hear this on the radio and sway along are in for a shock: this is now fifty years old. At least you have it easy. I remember when it came out! Back to 1976 and another rocker. [b]Cowboy Song -...

Max Crisp I was a fan of Thin Lizzy back in the 70’s, but I don’t remember this song? Whiskey in the Jar, Dancing in the Moonlight, and Waiting for an Alibi, were my favourites. With Thin Lizzy, you were guaranteed lots of fantastic guitar riffs, plus Phil Lynott’s...

A new word for you - syzygy

Judy Evans @JudyEv (374238) • Rockingham, Australia 2 Mar

Tonight, there is a total lunar eclipse. This occurs when the Earth comes between the moon and the sun. Because the light from the sun is blocked, tonight’s full moon will be in shadow. This will cause a ‘blood moon’ as the colour...

Max Crisp It was too cloudy where I am, as per usual, to see the blood moon. I’ve never heard of ‘zyzygy’ before, despite being an ardent follower of Susie Dent. Her of Countdown, and 8 Out of 10 Cats fame. I am trying to think of other words that don’t have vowels...

Do you think Nancy Guthrie will ever be found at all?

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (55897) 25 Feb

Most of you may have heard of this 84 year old woman. Mother of Savannah Guthrie, who is a well-known television newscaster, as well as co-host of the Today's Show, and has held this position for years. Nancy was last seen on...

Max Crisp I’ve not heard an update on this for days, as the Trump Iran war has taken over all our news here. Is she still missing? Kidnapping an old woman is such a callous thing to do, in fact kidnapping anyone is. These people are the scum of the earth. I hope she is...

This is going to be another night of no sleep

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (126587) • United States 3 Mar

OMFG. Last night I got almost no sleep and tonight is going to be no different. In order for IV pumps to work (if the needle is at the inside of your elbow) you need to keep your arms straight. If they are bent for any length of...

Max Crisp Hi, I’ve just scrolled back on your posts to see that you are in ER. Sorry to hear that. You’re full of hell, so must be on the mend. It’s definitely no fun sharing a room with strangers, especially those who do strange things. I...

Four Walls @FourWalls (83882) • United States 1 Mar

Max Crisp Happy birthday to Amber and Sandra! March is my birthday month too, but I’m not saying which day. I don’t want a fuss made! Hey ho, let’s go! I love Blitzkrieg Bop and I Wanna be Sedated, but I don’t remember Beat on the Brat. I’m going to...

I Hear Those Bones Creaking (Part 1)

Four Walls @FourWalls (83882) • United States 28 Feb

Here comes March, and that means we’re less than six weeks away from my birthday. And, as usual, I’m celebrating in style. I’m looking at songs that are 40, 50, 60, and 70 years old. I hear my bones creaking, but if I turn the...

Max Crisp You old thing you! I remember 1976 as it was a scorching hot summer, and I was still at High school, trying to pass exams with raging hay fever. Not good. Fortunately I seem to have grown out of it. Achoo! I don’t remember Alan...

Do you remember the Heinz puddings in a tin ?

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (8888) • United Kingdom 3 Mar

When I was younger one of my favourite puddings was made by Heinz. It was a sponge in a tin. You put the tin in a saucepan with boiling water and the sponge cooked. Open the tin and pop the cake out….serve it with custard. It was...

I’m glad my radiator sprung a leak today.

Fiacre Banks @xFiacre (14359) • Ireland 2 Mar

I noticed a small leak coming from the radiator in my daughter’s bedroom this morning. I fiddled with it a bit and it turned in a very big leak worthy of the attention of a plumber. The offending part, hidden from view, had...

Max Crisp I love this. Amidst is a great word. Dreams can be the most wonderful place to be when reality sucks, as it often does. I can’t remember having a dream for many a year now.

Too much!

Toni @toniganzon (74579) • Philippines 24 Feb

Max Crisp I’ve seen news clips of the snow in NYC, and it looks horrific. Here it’s turned mild, so no snow, but still plenty of rain. I’ve been wanting to do some gardening work for weeks now, but the weather has stopped me. Maybe tomorrow, or maybe next week? $100...

Life without rats

First batch of biscuits are in the oven

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (126587) • United States 19 Feb

Max Crisp Biscuits filled with eggs and cheese? Is that anything like a quiche? I love a quiche Lorraine, so the addition of bacon would suit me just fine.

Max Crisp My favourite is “Don’t eat yellow snow” but you’ve already mentioned it. I can think of another couple off the top of my head: 1. Never volunteer 2. Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can put off until the day after.
