Bob Dylan. B)

 

Early one mornin? the sun was shinin?,

I was layin? in bed

Wond?rin? if she?d changed at all

If her hair was still red.

Her folks they said our lives together

Sure was gonna be rough

They never did like mama?s homemade dress

Papa?s bankbook wasn?t big enough.

And I was standin? on the side of the road

Rain fallin? on my shoes

Heading out for the east coast

Lord knows I?ve paid some dues gettin? through,

Tangled up in blue.

 

She was married when we first met

Soon to be divorced

I helped her out of a jam, I guess,

But I used a little too much force.

We drove that car as far as we could

Abandoned it out west

Split up on a dark sad night

Both agreeing it was best.

She turned around to look at me

As I was walkin? away

I heard her say over my shoulder,

We?ll meet again someday on the avenue,

Tangled up in blue.

 

I had a job in the great north woods

Working as a cook for a spell

But I never did like it all that much

And one day the ax just fell.

So I drifted down to new orleans

Where I happened to be employed

Workin? for a while on a fishin? boat

Right outside of delacroix.

But all the while I was alone

The past was close behind,

I seen a lot of women

But she never escaped my mind, and I just grew

Tangled up in blue.

 

She was workin? in a topless place

And I stopped in for a beer,

I just kept lookin? at the side of her face

In the spotlight so clear.

And later on as the crowd thinned out

I?s just about to do the same,

She was standing there in back of my chair

Said to me, don?t I know your name?

I muttered somethin? underneath my breath,

She studied the lines on my face.

I must admit I felt a little uneasy

When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe,

Tangled up in blue.

 

She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe

I thought you?d never say hello, she said

You look like the silent type.

Then she opened up a book of poems

And handed it to me

Written by an italian poet

From the thirteenth century.

And every one of them words rang true

And glowed like burnin? coal

Pourin? off of every page

Like it was written in my soul from me to you,

Tangled up in blue.

 

I lived with them on montague street

In a basement down the stairs,

There was music in the cafes at night

And revolution in the air.

Then he started into dealing with slaves

And something inside of him died.

She had to sell everything she owned

And froze up inside.

And when finally the bottom fell out

I became withdrawn,

The only thing I knew how to do

Was to keep on keepin? on like a bird that flew,

Tangled up in blue.

 

So now I?m goin? back again,

I got to get to her somehow.

All the people we used to know

They?re an illusion to me now.

Some are mathematicians

Some are carpenter?s wives.

Don?t know how it all got started,

I don?t know what they?re doin? with their lives.

But me, I?m still on the road

Headin? for another joint

We always did feel the same,

We just saw it from a different point of view,

Tangled up in blue.

pretty sure the last cat who talked about pricing oil in euro's was found in a hole after his native land was bombed to hell and back./////    Anyone know of software that can stop the bobmabrdment of ads to my computer?  I use opera as my browser but IE keeps opening up new windows with new spam.  Pretty sure sbc is beyond this.

As I mentioned yesterday morning on IDS, some "entity" got into my computer over the weekend. I used Adaware last night on my computer. Great product. Free, user friendly (i.e., even Mousey could comprehend the instructions) and thorough. It cleaned out the bad shit (spyware) and left the good shit! (myware) :)

Here is the site. . . .

yeah gimme that V12 bi-turbo 8 liter engine! :lol:

 

btw, i never thought that the Porsche Cayenne would be such a huge sucess. It is the best year in Porsches history and mostly becasue of the Cayenne. That thing sells very good in the US, but also Germany.

Now i ask: IF the economy is totally phcucked up, IF oil price is high and and and WHY is such a car such a huge sucess? I told everyone who wanted to hear it, that the Cayenne will be the worst decision Porsches has ever made and that it will bring down the whole firm. I thought Porsche could even go bankrupt. I was 100% wrong. I think many stoolies though the same. Do WE get something wrong? I mean let us look back to the 70s, becaseu if we say we are in 70s bnear marekt than it should be worthwhile to compare. in Thge 70s those car comapnies started to built smaller engines to reduce gas consumption. So there was a direct result of bad economy: Cars became smaller. In those times where we are right now i havent seen such a result, although it should have occured so far IF we are really all doomed.

 

Another arguemtn which is maybe the striking one: The gap between rich/super rich and middle class gets bigger and bigger. J&P has to struggle while Richie Rich can buy buy buy what he wants and becasue there are enough Richie Richs a Cayenne can become a sucess story.

Interest rates close to zero and cashout refi. Americans will buy anything if the payments are right. Its not a $70k suv that can't be driven in the snow or off-road. It is $540/mo for the latest trend: "must be seen" "I work hard so I must reward myself"

 

Before the post 2k interest rate cuts $540/mo would get you an entry level Caddy.

The Kinks Father xmas Misfits 1978.

 

When I was small I believed in santa claus

Though I knew it was my dad

And I would hang up my stocking at christmas

Open my presents and I?d be glad

 

But the last time I played father christmas

I stood outside a department store

A gang of kids came over and mugged me

And knocked my reindeer to the floor

 

They said:

Father christmas, give us some money

Don?t mess around with those silly toys.

We?ll beat you up if you don?t hand it over

We want your bread so don?t make us annoyed

Give all the toys to the little rich boys

 

Don?t give my brother a steve austin outfit

Don?t give my sister a cuddly toy

We don?t want a jigsaw or monopoly money

We only want the real mccoy

 

Father christmas, give us some money

We?ll beat you up if you make us annoyed

Father christmas, give us some money

Don?t mess around with those silly toys

 

But give my daddy a job ?cause he needs one

He?s got lots of mouths to feed

But if you?ve got one, I?ll have a machine gun

So I can scare all the kids down the street

 

Father christmas, give us some money

We got no time for your silly toys

We?ll beat you up if you don?t hand it over

Give all the toys to the little rich boys

 

Have yourself a merry merry christmas

Have yourself a good time

But remember the kids who got nothin?

While you?re drinkin? down your wine

 

Father christmas, give us some money

We got no time for your silly toys

We?ll beat you up if you don?t hand it over

We want your bread, so don?t make us annoyed

Give all the toys to the little rich boys
