Hmm... Another Thanksgiving Dinner Gone Bad?


Yeah - family gatherings always go sour quick...
They have a definite tendency to do so,
that certainly is for sure...
And, with a family and extended family like mine
I feel like Dorothy does, right there;
like I'm not in Kansas anymore...?
*lol*
Or make that - not in the Açores, anymore!
As long as I don't feel like the Strawman there...
All is fine and dandy!
I just have to keep telling myself this, now
as, this year, it is hard to find reasons
to be thankful and not, actually,
reasons to ask "why"...?

Oh shoot... in hindsight...
I really look more like the lion...
the Cowardly Lion, no need to remind me...
than any other character on there...
And to think that, last year, right here,
I was identifying the most with...
Ernie?
Or maybe even... *gulp*... the Count?
Yikes!

How much things change
during the course of a year...

"Les années se suivent
mais ne se ressemblent pas."

Hmm... Is It Turkey, Tofurky Or...?

HMM... TO GET VACCINATED?

 OR NOT TO GET VACCINATED?  THAT IS THE QUESTION  RIGHT NOW!!!  ugggggghhhhh... QUACKS!  can't trust a thing they say!!!  One quack prescribed something  to an elderly patient - it killed the geezer!  It's always a 50/50 chance -  just like with the vaccine!!!  I better prepare for the worst  and hope for the best - as I always said! 

Hmm... THOSE are the Big Hits of 2007...?

Unlike my stance in other areas (...) I will not pretend to be an "all-knowing expert" of what makes the ever ebullient music industry "pop"... (!) But I can still come up with a TOP 10 of what are, (IMLO) in my luminous opinion, the biggest hits of the year that is ending TONIGHT... 2007 was, in my eyes, Timbaland's year. His "Shock Value" release was something else and he managed to be both artist AND producer/promoter of other artists on it! Nelly Furtado had another revealing year (though revealing she might be flimsy a bit wasn't exactly a high point in her career) and she also collaborated with Timbaland, not-so coincidentally... Top spot goes to RIHANNA though - as her song expresses so "spunkily", just in its title, what I summarily feel about a certain designated driver that I know, a ninny by the name of ROSA... (!) Nods go also to the likes of Sean Kingston, who made a splash with his ode to being -gulp- suicidal? Took guts to...
