Rock Concert was watched by everyone in my generation! It is so sad to see these innovative guys who did so much to influence the music we had available to hear begin to pass away. Is he in the rock and roll hall of fame? If not, he should be.

Thanks Nurk -- I needed a laugh today.

Can't remember. Back when our son lived at home...we had so much stuff left. I remember taking a load of clothes out of the dryer one day and realizing none of them belonged to us. Teenaged boys would lose their pecker if it weren't attached.

Me too! Well done almost burned. After years of working in a medical lab where you work with bacteria and parasites...you don't eat anything not fully cooked!

Yes, Ryan, that song makes me have chill bumps!

Me too!

2004 - Had pancreatitis - stone logged in bile duct. Thought I was dying and then was afraid I wouldn't. Being in healthcare for >25 years, I gotta be dying to go to ER. Too many sick people in there. Wait, does going with someone else count? If so, a couple of years ago my husband put a drill bit through his hand. Yes he did.....didn't mess up anything vital though. Very lucky. Sure was a bloody mess though.

I always find something in Tom's lyrics that speak to me. "Time to move on" came along about the time I was getting a divorce. It was exactly what I was thinking at the time. The whole Wildflowers album was timed perfectly for me....a lot of loss and hope in there.

When you live in a rural area...you gotta drive. No taxis, buses or anything. I guess I could do it, but I would have to depend on others, which I hate to do.

^Amylou---get a new mattress! Two things you gotta take care of -- your back and your feet -- have an expensive mattress and buy expensive shoes!

Well for some reason my husband has to have the right side of the bed (facing bed), I have learned to adjust. When he gets up for work, I take the whole bed....and do the same when I travel. Just 'cos I can, lol!

I used to have a German Shepard named Prince... a sweet dog!

Boy do I understand! When my father-in-law died last year, it was a fee for death, and a fee for the county to come to the cemetary and tell them where to dig, plus a fee for burial. They can't find enough to squeeze out of you alive, so they try to get every last drop when you die! I don't think our founding fathers would be pleased with the way things have turned out.

Happy, happy birthday!!! What a joy it is to celebrate a friends birthday!

I absolutely agree with this article. Although it was a real pain, I ran home from work every evening and put a meal on the table while Chad was at home. When he got a job in high school, I cooked and took the food to him and either I or my husband (sometimes both) sat with him on his supper break as he ate his home cooked meal. His co-workers were so jealous and used to beg me to bring them a plate too. I did cook for all of them a few times. We had to enforce the no cell phone at the table rule and force the kid to actually talk with us. We made him discuss his day, his plans, his dreams etc over the supper table. Most of the time we had 2-5 of his buddies there too. Chad said their parents never cooked and that they ususally ate take-out. We made those kids participate in discussion time too. They thought it was stupid at first, but later came to participate without being asked. They are all grown and married now. They became very nice young men. The greatest compliment came when Chad told us after he got married that when he has kids, he wants to raise them just like we raised him. LOVE is an action word. It takes a lot of sacrifice to be a family. It is something missing in a lot of homes.

I yell at other drivers, usually when I am alone, but sometimes when others are with me....I try to be good, it's just too damn hard. When not driving, it depends on where I am. I try not to rant in public. If I can, I like to use the really good words --all those listed above. It really does help. If I am where I cannot say those words, I turn around and walk away in a huff, after a lot of drop-you-in-your-tracks looks. Then later, when i can, I let it out. I used to hold everything in and spent years taking GERD medicine. I decided in my old age to put the pain where it belongs on them instead of inside me. Seems to have helped considerably. I do find that my frustration level has become easier to trigger as I age. I just get so tired of BS!

Can't Stop the Sun with HLWT in second. I actually thought it read which one is your least favorite -- so I actually voted for Lost Children - can't stand that song. I always skip it.

((Victoria))...I do understand. Didn't get to have any kids of my own either. I did get to help raise a niece and a step-son though. You don't have to birth them to love them. There are a lot of kids who would love to have a Mom out there. I do know it is not the same thing as having your own and that would be the one thing I would change if I could go back in time.

Gonna buy one Nurk?

A pair of boots - gave them to my niece.

The cold weather is killing my arthritis!! Achy, achy....

^I agree with Pawie. Voted the same way for the same reasons.

Spring can't come too soon for me!

I'm tired of winter already. How many more weeks?
