Witches on Brooms

Tonight I checked the sky for witches on brooms. Didn’t see any and I wonder what I would have done if I had seen a witch!

Actually I am intrigued with witches and witchcraft. I know of several women who say they are good witches and they don’t really make a big deal about it around us. I say if they have any powers to help people and they don’t cause any harm, then they should be able to do whatever they want to do without being harassed or persecuted.

So, if you are a witch – have a Happy Halloween!

Share The Road

I have always had a lot of respect for truckers. Certainly not a job that I could handle. My brother-in-law started driving an 18 wheeler 5 two years ago and always has the most interesting stories to share about his life on the road as I’m sure all truckers do. I was surprised to find out that most truckers don’t use CB radios anymore since cell phones and the Internet came along. He explains that now a days the majority of the people who even use a CB radio are the drug dealers and the lot lizards that are looking for “a date” for the evening (or at anytime really, truckers are found on the road all hours of the day and night, every day of the week.

My sister has no interest in going out of the road with him, not even for just a local run that would have her home in plenty of time to deal with all the other things that keep working women so busy 24/7. I’d love to go on a road trip with him. He is a good guy with a wicked good sense of humor that doesn’t get on my last nerve as quickly as so many other people do.

Digging The Deals At Musician Friend

Paying under $300 for a decent Fender guitar is a good deal, if you ask me. Since no one is asking me I took it upon myself to look at what the musician friend website has to offer their shoppers these days. Check out this cutie! I just might be buying myself a Christmas present this year after all!

Yogi Bear

I have been wanting to see the Yogi Bear movie for several years now. So this weekend a girlfriend of mine and I going to the mall, doing some shopping (using some of the gift cards that we got for way back at last Christmas) and then we are going to watch Yogi Bear and his side kick Boo Boo. I used to love watching the Yogi Bear cartoons while growing up so I’m a real fan of Yogis and I can only hope that this movie does him justice.

Fender Jazzmaster 62

Hard to believe that there is much difference between one guitar pickguard or another, but after looking at this fender jazzmaster 62 tortoiseshell pickguard online at Guitar Center’s website I feel a bit more educated on the subject. I’m sorry but I have never gotten into playing the guitar, or any musical instrument for that matter. Making music just wasn’t in the cards for me, nor is singing or even able to carry a tune. For me it has always been about the dance. Poetry in motion has always been my motto!

I am trying to be pro active and getting a bit of holiday shopping before it gets all too overwhelming for me and I start to panic. The holidays are always stressful for me, so many people to buy gifts for and so many people to try and make happy all in the name of Santa Claus!

Flash Mob

I have always enjoyed watching the Flash Mob videos that would pop up once in a while on the TV. I can’t believe that it didn’t even occur to me that I could Google “Flash Mob” and come up with plenty of these hilarous Flash Mob videos that I so enjoy seeing. I really wish that I could participate in something like this, so today I am Googling “Flash Mob” and see if I can find any that I haven’t seen all ready and see if I can find information on how to be a participant in something like that.

Wish me luck and if anyone out there knows how to get involved in a Flash Mob, please let me know. I’m having issues with getting videos from YouTube on here, it’s really starting to piss me off and I can’t seem to find anyone that can help me find out what is different now and how to fix it. I really wanted to post my favorite “Flash Mob” video on here entitled “Frozen Grand Central” it is a perfect example of so many people getting together and doing something just for the sake of messing with people’s minds! Gotta love it!!!!!
