If you say you're going to marry her-- you better stay with her for the rest of your life!

Kentucky dog makes national news:

He is a beautiful dog. Got to love firefighters when they risk their life for animals like humans. God Bless them all. Loving that new show called Chicago Fire. I went to all the "Great Chicago Fire" ruins and museums when I went there for a conference once. Seen alot the short week I was there. Crazy place, but fun for a week. I wouldn't want to live in the fast lane. lol

@AB didn't Elvis have a song about her? Maybe I am thinking about "Polk Salat Annie".

My partner has French ancestors so I try to stay on his good side. I'm afraid he might've already put a spell on me.Lol. To each of you a goodnight. I have a baby who needs my assistance. Really worried about Nope. She sure is sick today. I've known so many with that dreadful diabetes and heart problems. Hopefully Spring will be here soon and we can enjoy the weather and the gifts coming from the ground;) Birds, bees, everything. The renewal of life...I always loved "The Rose" by Bette M. Conway Twitty did a nice version as well. Arrivederci.

You are right, it was Bobby Bare. Elvis did Polk Salat Annie.

No, it wasn't about the voodoo queen:

Polk Salad Annie" is a 1968 song written and performed by Tony Joe White. It was recorded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Its lyrics describe the lifestyle of a poor rural Southern girl and her family. Traditionally, the term to describe the type of food highlighted in the song is polk or poke salad, a product of pokeweed. Its 1969 single release peaked at Number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100.

I don't blame you. I wouldn't mess with no traditions no matter what they are. It is mystifying though. I loved New Orleans. I would love to go back.

I hope Spring is around the corner like predicted. Have a good night and if you can't sleep come back and chat. I leave you my favorite:

The Rose - Bette Midler

Have a peaceful night.

well Good Night folks, I think I am going to go see if I can find something to chase Arthur out of the house for a few hours. If the liniment don't help, maybe some blackberry brandy will. if nothing else, both of those will warm my outtards and innards.

One of my favorite Super Bowl ads in case you missed it.

Farmers Tribute: So God Made A Farmer. Paul Harvey

I loved listening ot Paul Harvey. Farming is some hard work too. Sadly a lot of farmland is turning into neighborhoods and strip malls. Glad there are still plenty where I can drive out and see some big operations. God Bless our farmers.

Goodnight Ancient Wolf. Sip one for me too. Sound good.

Good morning, everyone. I slept as well as Roaming does, and here I am, once again. This thread is like a magnet--even if I resist, it pulls me to the keyboard. The only thing stronger is the bed, which is right behind me. So when I hit my forehead on the keyboard, which I frequently do, I just mozey over to the bed and drop right in. Stein is already there, snoring away. I'm going to have to kick him off so that I can make the bed.

Yes, sometime sleep eludes us all. More this week than most times. I hope you sleep better.

I did not sleep much last night-- hoping I can improve on that tonight!

I don't think Western Kentucky can take down the Ravens!!!!!!!!!!

I just dropped in to say a quick hello to the bird threaders. Missed you folks tonight, but I had a lot of chores to get done--washed the kitchen floor and mudroom access. If that wasn't enough, I threw in a load of clothes to wash. Whoohooo. All done, now so I can shower and get to bed. Talk to you tomorrow. Pleasant dreams, and may your Guardian Angel guide you through your slumber, and gently awaken you in the morning to put sunshine in your heart.

Well that didn't work. Anyway, David Allan Coe and Tyler perform Daddy If...On youtube. For some reason. I'm having problems. Too tired I reckon.

[Ancient Wolf]

Good morning folks. I don't know if it was the liniment on my joints or the small sip of blackberry brandy or both, but they kept old Arthur out of the house and I rested well. Now for coffee and await the CREATOR's new day and new life. I am 4 years old today, the Creator gave me a new lease on life on this date.

I suppose HE was not done with me spreading HIS message of Love as stated in Matt 22: 36-39 where CHRIST gave us the 2 greatest commandments and went on to say "On these 2 commandments hang all the laws (religous rules and dogmas) and the prophets (preaching).

Good morning, friends & neighbors!
Thank you, Oglala & Ancient Wolf for your wonderful, uplifting posts this morning to get my day started off right! I hope ALL of you bird people have a great day today! I'm off to see how much I can get accomplished before the sun goes down...with a song in my heart, to go with the sunshine & love, placed there by Oglala and Ancient Wolf.

Before the Sun goes down
Before the world spins around
Before a new day's found
I must forgive
There's a grace that I've been shown
I know that I have to pass it on
Got to make it right
Right now before the sun goes down....
