This reminds me of the voice controled promps on the telephone when I call the utilities.Phone.Cable tv and the credit card company.You have to repeat over and over again.

Today at the flea market I got all these albums:

The Wild Heart
Rock A Little
Tango in the Night
Streets of Fire soundtrack
Mirage
Fleetwood Mac white album
The Other Side of the Mirror
and Bella Donna

....... for $15!

I was sooo freaking happy! The guy who sold me them told me he thinks he has all of them and has about 20 copies of Buckingham Nicks. So I will definitely going back!

Madonna is looking great on stage in Tel Aviv. I can't wait to see her in Denver, though I'm wondering about the opening act - a London based duo called Nero. Anyone here familiar with them?

For all the claims about plastic surgery (which she doesn't deny) I've gotta say, this could be Madonna a'la 1984 or 1994 - there's barely any difference. If Madge is having work done, she's got an incredible doctor.

Lately, I've had a lot of pent up creativity that's been driving me mad. I tried writing, drawing and painting to no avail. This morning I realised that it was because I can't remember the last time I took a photograph I was proud of and really truly loved. So I got my camera, tripod, sister and dog and we went for a walk. I got a shot I liked, came home, turned it into a shot I loved, messed with my Flickr accounts and felt 100 times better.

This is the result: http://www.flickr.com/photos/georgie...ck/7184044717/

She does look great! I see her next month.. twice. Too excited. I haven't heard much of them. Here we have LMFAO and another one whose name escapes me right now.

As it was raining.Today I sat around to fix some old transistor radios.A plus 35 year old hobby.Also which I worked at shops over the years to earn some extra cash as a pro.The money came in handy to finance a couple Stevie/FM tours..Now today people dont use radios anymore,I just do electronics as a hobby.

ButterCookie: Your pix look lovely.


Caroline79: What a great deal for $15.I will be back at the fleamarket soon once I get some more work.Wow Not even one Rumours album in that collection.

Don't quit.My mom went through the same thing you are going through.I remember those days back where she worked at the beauty shop for hours on end.Later she went for her teaching degree for teaching the trade which my step dad got her into the state trade school to teach beauty culture.She retired about the same age is Stevie is now and she traveled the whole country with a motorhome with my stepdad.

Oh .don't take that nail out of that tire .let the garage or a machanic friend do it for you.

In a couple of weeks Stevie will be here.That will brighten your day.

BTW.Your pix and hair look great.

Thanks It wasn't so much a choice as an I-dropped-my-D40-down-the-stairs-and-claimed-the-best-one-I-could-on-the-insurance. I actually still really miss the D40.

Bro, I sold the red guitar! I'm sure I told you that at the time.
