I met him at the candy store
he turned around and smiled at me
you get the picture yes we see
that's when I fell for leader of the pack
shadow morton may not be a familar name to many but his songs were influencial in the 60s rock and roll r&b scene.
he could neither read or write music and he played no instrument, all of his songs came to him simply in his head.. 'remember (walking in the sands)' was a breakaway sound that part operatic, part spoken, chanting, sound effects (sea gulls are heard in the background track).
performed by high school friends the shangri-las and 'written' by shadow in just 22 minutes when he pulled his car over by the side of the road, it became an international hit and influenced many other artists and song-writers.

she wraps me in her cold embrace,.
a hold that will not let go .
.. i welcome her with half a heart, .
The idea of getting on with life is kind of strange isn't it. An friendship well i think I've run everybody off because I can't stay away from controversial topics and I don't mean politics more like interesting archeological finds with bizarre inplications. i try to get people to jump out of the security thought plane without a parachute and see what we can find out. I try to be nice and talk about everyday stuff but somehow I start dragging them off somewhere they don't want to go. Fortunately my husband is the same way most people get their fill of us. When we were witnesses people had to be nice to us and at first the information was new and unusual but as natural born apostates it was just a matter of time. I've known alot of people in my life quite a few have died we were once friends maybe, maybe not. i'm still fascinated by the concept of getting on with friendship what does that mean anyway? A friend should be there for the duration and you should be able to talk openly about what you think and not have to hide who you are. is it sadness? maybe more like disappointment. Or maybe it's just the way it is and you observe it.
andrei may find his experience in awake!
will he become the first witness to witness the start of armaggedon?.
"i was standing at a bus stop, seeing off my girlfriend," said andrei, a local resident who did not give his second name.
It could be the day of the triffids !

We've all done things in the past that seemed right at the time but in retrospect maybe not. We were young an if you remember Brenda lee I'm sorry so sorry that I was such a fool but that don't right the wrong that's been done.
they tell me they say it's a part of being young
Well "we are young set the world on fire" ha ha ha we all made mistakes and didn't set the world on fire however sometimes it's good to play those sad songs and cry a bit because there's nothing more annoying then people who say "It's not that bad" or "cheer up" you just want to say leave me alone. it's true there's plenty to be miserable about and scheduling a little depression with a little bit of plaintive music and a drink is good for the soul.
Tomorrow we'll start over
i am not particularly interested in the wtbts and their current doings.
or doctrine, or debates about god/evolution.
i am more interested in people, especially ex-jws like me.
Well it's nice to hear all are engaged in living and experiencing life's ups and downs and adventures. What i appreciate most is how free my mind is to go wherever it chooses to run along without fences. I am as always interested in the search what we are, what evidence is there to believe anything and I'm open to whatever turns up . Something I've always wanted to do was live by the ocean so next month we are moving into a brand new apt just a block from the ocean and we will get a couple of bicycles and enjoy the seabreeze.
That was a surprise I guess I thought the only way out was in a coffin. So what happens now? does he pack his bags and go back to germany as a civilian or maybe he wants to spend more time with his grandchildren
larsinger thinks we are.
i have to answer this because it makes my blood boil.
this is one of the key things that trapped me in a religion for the first 30 years of my life.. we were told the archaeologists have found ur of the chaldeans, babylon, nineveh and evidence for the existence of the hittites.therefore the other things in the bible must be true.. archaeologsts have also found troy in modern day turkey.
Archeology is fascinating and if you want to find truth you have to hone your critical thinking skills check out what is real evidence and follow it wherever it takes you.
my spiral note book with my inter-net info and pass words just up and vanished while in hospital.
therefore my tardiness in replying to terry's thread, sorry for the delay.. i may be more hard headed than terry.
i also fell off the front steps smacking my head against the house, that was in the morning, other fall was the evening of that day.
Glad your doing better, falling and hitting your head is so dangerous about two years ago I tripped over some suitcases and fell head first and smashed my head on the hard kitchen floor tiles but i went immediately to the emergency room and as it turned out I was alright despite a couple of black eyes. Whenever you smash your head to have to get it checked out.
take care

with all this new light replacing old light one has to really wonder about this god?.
in the begining god said: "let there be light" and it was so for about a 1/2 hour and then it went back out..
They're kind of like an old red christmas tree bulb lying next to a trash can.
