Good morning to you 240B - I'm having a pretty good morning myself, listening to some Marvin Gaye before I head out to work.  Glad to hear you don't want to kill your cat - don't want to get ahold of that stuff. 

 

Sorry you must work on such a lovely day. I'll be right back at it on Monday. Back on the endless treadmill. But it is fun. Working is better than no working, for me at least.
 
I'll have to listen to some Marvin, now that you have given me that earbug. lol
 
I'll talk to you later on when you get back.

This is in honor of Alice's workday. Wishing it is pleasant and profitable.

I was just listening to that song a few minutes ago!  Yes, excellent.  I have a Marvin Gaye channel on Pandora that I LOVE!  Man, I wish that Motown music would come back - I've hated Rap from day one!  Thanks 240B.

It sucks working on Saturday, but when you have a business - that is usually the busiest day.  I would rather stay home and work in the garden - of course, I can do that tomorrow on my day off - right?

They're predicting thunderstorms.

I love it!  Such a tragic ending for Marvin Gay, he was gifted.

[240B]

Feh... That was too easy. 13 out of 13. The down side was that I had to look at Holder, Kerry and Fauxcahantas. I was pleased to see that the majority of people my age got at least 9 of them.

[mountaineer]

Woo hoo, I got 13/13. Had to guess a little on the Middle East map.

[happyg]

12/13.  I wonder how liberals did? LOL!

[mystery-ak]

I had to guess on the currency symbol...but I guessed right...lol

[Rapunzel]

The only one I did guess on was the one I got incorrect...  won't happen again... I have recommitted the ME map to memory.

I love Gaye.  US old darts are not alone with our love of the older tunes. You tube has given a lot of younger people an appreciation of our music.  I always like reading their comments on everyone from Elvis to Elton and the old 50's songs.  The music industry deems to be run by people like JayS these days and it is all aimed at blacks.. one reason Country remains so popular is it has a heart like the music we grew up on... it is why we can hear a song and flash back to where and what we were doing at the time... I don't think you get that with Rap.
