Good morning,

And oh my goodness. What in the world are you talking about?

Like I explained here last night, I know that "hollaback girl" in the context originally used by chuck meant that gracie was a cheerleader. And even though her skirt might have been plaid and not a mini-skirt, I bet the boys liked to sit next to her in class, too, just like the cheerleader that chuck got to sit next to in 10th grade English. (Haven't you ever noticed that gracie looks like Mitzi Gaynor and probably has legs like Mitzi's, too. The legs are the last thing to go, you know.)

And, about that song, I do not know that one either. But I have been wanting to tell you all about a new song I learned. We have been on the road and while visiting some friends, we were taken to a place to hear some live local entertainment, country music and blues, too. Two of my favorite kinds of music. I can request songs for quite a while in a place like that. And Mr. Boomer keeps the tip jar fat.

Anyway, we were with a group of retirees who were regulars at this place. They had a favorite song that I had never heard. They knew all the words and sang along with the chorus.

I am going to link it here, even though it is not even close to midnight. It comes with a warning, in case anybody thinks they might be far too "cultured" for such a song. I found the link on youtube and I will be finding it on iTunes soon so I can buy it. If you want to listen while you read TOTV this morning, just crank up your speakers and minus the link to the bottom of the screen and see just how "cultured" you can be.

The song is called "Meet Me With Your Black Drawers On."

I apologize for messing up the link. I got in a hurry. Gotta get out of here this morning before I get kicked out.)

Can you imagine if somebody looks in here, expecting a thread about the POA. Ohhhhh, this thread jumped the track long ago.
