Bells Will Be Ringing

Written by: Don Henley
Performed by: Eagles


O Bells will be ringing
this sad sad sad news
Oh what a Christmas
to have the blues
My baby's gone
I have no friends
To wish me greetings
once again

O Choirs will be singing
Oo Silent Night
Christmas carols by candle light
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Years night

Friends and relations
Send salutations
Sure as the stars shine up above
But this is Christmas
Yeah, it's Christmas my dear
It's the time of year to be with the one you love .

So won't you tell me
You'll never more roam
Christmas and the New Year
Will find you home
There`ll be no more sorrow
No grief and pain
And I'll be happy, happy, once again
There be no more sorrow
No grief and pain
It'll be a happy, Christmas, once again

5500 Years From Home

In addition to the 250 plus Lyrical Pieces that I have written and received Copyright Protection from the Library Of Congress - I have, also, written a Novel (copyrighted but not Published) entitled 5500 Years From Home. I am currently working on a 2nd Book entitled The Island that I am about 1/2 the way towards completion, .. but have suspended at this time.

I have decided to, occasionally, post excerpts from
5500 Years From Home in this Blog space.
Today, we peruse the 5th page of Chapter 18 – Page 150.
.
Enjoy !

Front To The Past

When Charles inquired about the EOBs last eleven days with Thom, he only replied that it was more exciting for Thom than it was for him.
.
Upon returning to the house, the EOB asked Thom if he could watch some TV. The adults found this so interesting that a Being that has seen everything from Christopher Columbus to the year 7508 would want to watch a television set. Thom laughed as he explained to all that the EOB could view everything on every channel by just looking at the set’s one viewing channel. Still, Charles and Audrey found it humorous.
.
It was a fact that the EOB could depart for his home at any time but continued his tarriance with the Martins. As a matter of fact, he spent the rest of the week-end there .. mostly watching the television.

Blue Christmas


Words & Music by: Billy Hayes & Jay Johnson
Vocals by: Elvis Presley



I’ll have a blue christmas without you
I’ll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green christmas tree
Wont be the same dear, if youre not here with me

And when those blue snowflakes start falling
Thats when those blue memories start calling
Youll be doin all right, with your Christmas of white
But I’ll have a blue, blue blue blue christmas

(instrumental break)

You’ll be doin all right, with your christmas of white,
But I’ll have a blue, blue christmas

Thom surmised that due to Janice’s funeral the previous day, his kids would probably be excused from School and would be at home. So, on this day, Thom walked out of the barn and looked around. He saw no intruders on his property and no cars parked on the roadway as he had earlier, less than two weeks prior. Once he felt safe, he called for the EOB to come on out and the two started to walk up over the ridge towards the house. By the time they got about half way there, Audrey had spotted them and ran out of the house and raced up to Thom and nearly knocked him over hugging him. Her tears were flowing as were Thom’s and she cried out that her mother had died. Thom explained that he knew about it and they hugged tightly for several minutes. Finally, Audrey looked at the EOB and told him that they should have taken her mother to the Doctor as soon as he mentioned it, but .. Then she stopped and began again that with Thom gone .. and she stopped again. Then, she hugged the EOB as well.
.
As they turned to walk on up to the house, Audrey explained that Charles and the kids had gone over to the People’s Church to get the house Flowers and bring them back to their house. She guessed that they’d be back, soon. She said that she just did not feel like going.
.
Thom asked what the kids had been told about his disappearance. Audrey told him that Cyndi already had an idea that something was amiss because of the way Dusty was subliminally offering information. And if Cyndi knew, then surely, Corey knew. The way it was explained was that it was a family secret that an Astronaut was having trouble and needed their daddy’s help. What made it more improbable was that Janice had passed during that same time. Both of the children are confused that there may be a connection between the two once in a lifetime instances. They don’t know about the EOB being from another time and may be too young to be able to digest it.

… and nearly knocked him over hugging him. ..

Boy oh boy .. what a squeeker !
This week I was playing my Division leader
and the best team in the League ..
Fred & Mark's Team Winner.
They are, also, the highest scoring Team in the League
.. and I am not.
But I did get off to a good start leading 52 - 36 at one point.
Then they got big points out of PHI QB Donovan McNabb
whose Eagles were getting the sh!t knocked out of them by
the San Diego Chargers.
THAT is never a good sign for your opponent's passing game
because they will be throwing the damn ball all over the place
and their opponent will be playing Prevent Defense
allowing tons of yards .. and meaningless TDs, as well.
McNabb threw for over 450 yards
even thiugh they lost.
Neither of us had any MNF players, so ..
going into Sunday night's game, I was losing by
a gazillian freaking points
BUT
I had NE QB & WR Tom Brady & Randy Moss, still
while Fred & Mark had IND RB Joseph Addai.
Brady & Moss really put on a show and before Halftime,
I was only down by 3 points.
Cutting right to the chase, I was winning by 5 points with two plays
left in the game. A Rushing TD is worth 6 points in our League
and Addai got the ball on a Peyton Manning handoff
BUT
was stopped at the 1 yard line (saving my ass)
because Manning threw a TD pass on the last play.
Who cares who won the NFL game - I won my Fantasy game !
108 - 103
.
Okay, I am tied for last place in my Division
BUT I am only one game out of a Playoff berth
with 3 games to play.
I need to pass the Holmes' brothers AND
catch and pass Zach's For Skins (no pun, here).
.
My next week's opponent is the 2nd place Gray Ghosts
who I may catch as well
because they are only 2 games ahead of me.
Sh!t, Fred & Mark's 1st place team is only 3 games ahead of me ..
meaning I still have a shot at 1st frickin' place.
.
Fantasy Football - you gotta love it !

Clyde: Roy, I hope you appreciate me an’ Claude taking you Clubbin', tonight.

Claude: Yeah, this is a place where you can hear some of what they call alternative music.

Roy: Yeah, yeah, yeah .. I like Music. I hope they play Orange Blossom Special !

Clyde: No, no, Roy. This ain’t no Hillbilly Bar. This here music is different. Got that, Roy ? It’s a little bit different.

Claude: The musicians are a bit off the beaten path.

Roy: Off the beaten path. I, I, I .. got it. Off the beaten path. Off. Yeah, .. OFF !.... : - )


A little bit later .. and after a few beers by the boys … … …


Clyde: Claude, what the heck is Roy doing over there on the other side
of the table ?

Claude: I don’t know. He’s got his arm completely under the table. And it looks like his arm is going back and forth. And real fast, like.

Clyde: And he’s got a silly, goofy look on his face. Good golly, his eyes are rolling back in his head.

Claude: Oh my God, he’s .. he’s .. he’s ....:-o

Clyde: ROY ! STOP THAT ! STOP THAT, RIGHT NOW

Claude: ROY ! You’ve done gone and made a big mistake ! You’ve misunderstood us !

Clyde: Yeah, .. we said we was going to take you to listen to some 'OFF BEAT' music !

You know where to put the caulk

Hey you getting drunk, so sorry!

5500 YEARS FROM HOME

chapter Seventeen … page 145

Janice’s Dirge
.
Thom stopped observing the visualization port. He hung his head down and could not escape the emptiness that pervaded his senses. His heart panged for his wife, Audrey, knowing how this tragedy must be tearing her heart out and Thom wasn’t even there to subjugate her angst. Audrey was having to deal with her husband being ripped from her by an Extrinsic Being from 5500 years in the future and her mother’s passing so soon, thereafter. For a while, Thom could not confine his emotions and he wept. The EOB whose people had long since learned to quell their saddened emotional suffering, put his arm around Thom and stood silently by him in a true show of humane comforting.
.
Soon, Thom was inert because no predominate time movement can possibly occur without a reasonably lucid human from the 2000s being overcome with fatigue syndrome. The fact that Thom had just experienced the emotional roller coaster of his affairs with Debra and then having his wife’s mother pass away without his consoling presence and after a night of precious little sleep – could only conclude that he rest. For, soon, he’d be home.
.
When Thom awakened, he rubbed his eyes and in a childlike angelic intonation, asked ‘are we there, yet’ ? The EOB allowed that they would indeed be at Thom’s home, momentarily. Thom had two questions. What amount of time had passed in Coventry since his disappearance .. and how long had it been since Janice’s requiem ?
.
The answers were: it had been 11 days since he was seized and Janice passed 6 days later. She was buried just the day before this one. It was, now, Noon on Friday January 9th, 2009.
.
The EOB has secretly and silently moored the Orb right back in the loft of the Martin’s barn. The hatch opened and Thom crawled out. He offered the EOB an invitation to come into his house and the EOB accepted if the children would be ok. Thom assured him they would.

like i'm coming home


1
well i was tired and i was lonely
and i needed some understanding
my life had no meaning
although filled, it would seem
yes i thought i was so special
that all i'd do was mighty fine
i guess i refused to listen
i must have been living a dream

chorus
now i feel like i'm coming home
oh lord
i feel like I'm coming home
i've been away for so long
i ve been listening to the same old song
my way of thinking was so wrong
my how i have grown
i feel like i'm coming home
oh yes, lord
i feel like i'm coming home

2
all it took was looking
from an angle so different
one that i had never imagined
yet so strong and so free
now i walk into this feeling
that someone is walking with me
a light up above me
where darkness used to be

repeat chorus

3
my life is now filling
my mind is overwhelmed
my soul is trouble free
by a heart that let it flow
of kindness and understanding
unknown just days before
i enjoy this satisfaction
teach me more as i grow

repeat chorus ( 2x )

Janice’s Dirge
.
.
As the Orb began it’s final journey with Thom on board, he could not keep his mind focused on what he had been waiting for since the mishap in the truck at his front door. Thom knew he was going home but the year he spent with Debra in College during 1987 was not going to disappear from his mind anytime soon. Again, he questioned the EOB about Debra. Was he sure that she was a Wormhole Wanderer. Her physical characteristics were not as pronounced as his. Why was that ? And why did Debra just disappear after one year. And why would she not allow him to meet and speak with her ? Why did she pick this time to view him ?
.
The EOB answered that he had not seen Debra during the previous times that Thom had at the Beach. It wasn’t until that last night that he caught a glimpse of her. She was most definitely a traveler through time. Wormhole Wanderers can immediately identify another one. She was, most likely, from the early 3700s when the infinite knowledge of the cosmos had not enlarged the brains of Terrasphereians causing the swelling of the head. That gradually began in the mid 5500s until it had evolved into what the EOB looked like. Her choice to not speak with Thom may have been because her time traveling period had not perfected the intermingling of past with present persons. Especially when they knew each other. And Debra may have just wanted to watch herself in the past; maybe to have modified some action or incident. Surely, she had no idea that Thom, himself would be there from his future. She may have been puzzled as to how and why he was even there.
.
Thom continued questioning the EOB as to why Debra was with him in just 1987 and not more time. The EOB replied with a question to Thom – asking when did they meet and when did he last see her ? Thom examined his memory and concluded that he met Debra at a University of Maryland sponsored Lecture by George Walton Lucas.

It's all a matter of perspective:
.
.
Some folks say today is the first day of the rest of your life ..
.. when in fact - it's the last day of the first part of your life.
.
It's like seeing the glass half empty ..
when someone trys to tell you that it's half full.
.
And the biggest faux pas is when you're told that ..
the most important thing is how you play the game -
when it's sooooo freaking obvious that
the most important thing is unequivocally,
whether you win or lose. D'oh ! ... :slaps forhead:
.
.
The most cosmic coincidence of all time must be the fact that
our Sun is exactly 400 times larger than our Moon
AND the Moon is exactly 400 times closer to Earth than the Sun is.
It's the only true way that there can be a Total Eclipse ..
and it's the only one in our Universe.

The characters Bert & Ernie from TVs Sesame Street
were named after Bert (the Cop) & Ernie (the Taxi Driver)
on Frank Capri's It's A Wonderful Life

Ants never sleep; it's a fact.

Monopoly is still my favorite board & dice game.

And honestly, how did we survive as a people
before Personal Computers & Cell Phones ?

5500 Years From Home

In addition to the 250 plus Lyrical Pieces that I have written and received Copyright Protection from the Library Of Congress - I have, also, written a Novel (copyrighted but not Published) entitled 5500 Years From Home. I am currently working on a 2nd Book entitled The Island that I am about 1/2 the way towards completion, .. but have suspended at this time.
.
I have decided to, occasionally, post excerpts from
5500 Years From Home in this Blog space.
Today, we peruse the 11th page of Chapter 16 – Page 141.

And even though, the Orb was ready to continue on back to Coventry by 6 AM, the next morning, a knock came on the Suite’s door at 6:15 AM. It appeared that Thom’s commotion the night before had alerted a Hotel employee to the possibility that someone was staying in the Penthouse.
.
Thom and the EOB were prepared to blast off, anyway and by the time the employee had secured a key and entered the Penthouse Suite. The Orb was gone.

Well, after scoring 118 points, last week while losing;
this week I stumbled in with just 91 points
BUT
I won !
And that's all that counts.
It was sad to see my opponent, Big Doggie
lose his only chance at victory when on Monday Night,
Redskins TE Chris Cooley went out of the game
with an injury ..
BUT
even worse as a Redskins fan - Cooley has a broken ankle
and will miss the rest of this season. Sad !
But before you shed any tears for the Dog -
keep in mind that I lost one of my RBs on Sunday
when the Jets RB Leon Washington went out of his game
after only one play with a broken leg.
( this NFL Football is a rough game (read: job) )
I, also, lost one of my WRs, Vikings Bernard Berrian
due to injury as well.
I have lost 6 LineUp members to injury DURING games,
this year .. making it tough to win games.
Patriots QB Tom Brady did throw 3 TD passes
along with 300 plus yards
BUT
his teammate and mine, WR Randy Moss
left the game early, as well.
Texans TE Owen Daniels did quite well for me, this week
with over 100 yards Receiving and a TD.
.
My next week's opponent is WRC TV Reporter, Pat Collins.

I have Brady & Moss out on Bye .. so my job will be
doubly more difficult.

the plan

1
sizzleache has swallowed mr. giddy
sugar and goody have a tear in their eye
el phont has them all locked up
and freaky fredy has stolen our pup
reignbeau dude has been reassigned
but we have the services of a flying bird
whine and her truck are slipping around
and the rain queen is raining down

chorus a
we need a plan .. need a plan
we need a plan .. need a plan
how are we going to save ourselves
get out of this land
we need a plan .. need a plan
we need a plan .. need a plan
the frog will lead us
we know he can

2
carlost is sent out for a ride
the flower and the rest stay inside
or under an umbrella is a safe place
honi and toni are face to face
the jelly bellies are singing low
the frog and the flower are ready to show

chorus b
we've got a plan .. we've got a plan
we've got a plan .. we've got a plan
going to save ourselves
get out of this land
we've got a plan .. we've got a plan
we've got a plan .. we've got a plan
the frog and the flower
doing all they can

3
they sent the bird to el phont's house
with a package containing a tiny mouse
screaming and stomping to get away
el phont stomps on sizzleache
giddy guy gushes out of the snake
while goody and sugar make their break

chorus c
that's the plan .. the plan
that's the plan .. the plan
the dog is safe .. he also ran
that's the plan .. the plan
that's the plan .. the plan
freaky fredy got busted
when the poop hit the fan

epilogue
what a plan a plan .. what a plan a plan
everyone's happy .. everyone ran
what a plan a plan .. what a plan .. a plan
now they're so tired .. asleep on the sand

Ocean City

As the evening approached, Thom decided that he would pick up some carry out for Dinner and eat it while remaining at the Hotel. He looked around for a phone but after not finding one, the EOB reiterated what he had explained, earlier and that was just visualize that he had a phone. Thom couldn’t remember every cosmic nuance but was beginning to wonder if he was going to take all these idiosyncrasies with him into his present day. Regardless, Thom visualized calling in a Pizza and sure enough, the Dough Roller answered. For an extra buck, they would deliver. Thom checked his 1964 money collection only to find having exactly enough to pay the Pizza charge and a tip. He would be taking no 1964 money with him back to his present day. Thom gave his address as the Hotel’s but promised to meet the delivery boy by the side door, just off the Boardwalk.
.
Thom waited downstairs and after about 45 minutes, the Pizza delivery boy showed up. As Thom was paying him, sure enough, the older lady in the long black dress could be see riding the Boardwalk Tram down the Boardwalk. Thom started to run after the Tram but it was moving along briskly and running with a Pizza wasn’t that easy. Thom remembered the EOBs words about finding out in time and gave up his pursuit. As Thom started back to the Hotel, he looked up towards the Penthouse to see the EOB looking down upon him. He didn’t acknowledge him because there was no reason to call attention to a futuristic being that was squatting in a yet to be completed Hotel Suite.
.
Thom returned to the Room and ate most of his Pizza before retreating to the balcony and watching the vacationers strut along the Boardwalk.
.
The EOBs fascination with the TVs programs via the news channel was continuing as he sat mesmerized.
.
… For an extra buck, they would deliver. …

the cool fool

1
i used to think
that you were cool
but now i know you're not
you're nothing more
than a stupid fool
whom i despise a lot
you may have
a lot of fans
following you around

10
but those same people
are in need of something
that they think they've found
time will come
it always does
eyes will open wide
then they will see
what you really are
you'll have no place to hide
so off you'll go

20
to another crowd
professing to be red hot
some will believe
that you really are
but most will see you're not
i'm so glad i have learned
the mistake
of my ways
i was young
and i admit

30
to being trapped in your maze
you prey upon
those who want
something more from life
but all you have
to give to them
is toil, trouble .. and strife
may i take
this time right now
to sing of your demise

40
you are probably
just as confused
and it will be a surprise
i don't want
anything
anymore to do with you
so look around
for someone else
you'll have to find someone new
so take your ego

50
and your tuning fork
i have no use for them
but be very careful
where you go
you may be out on a limb
i guess that's fine
it's better than
paying off your bail
cause someone
may come along

60
to take you off to jail

( repeat first 12 lines)

Sally Simpson

.
Outside the house
Mr. Simpson announced
that Sally couldn't go to the meeting.
He went on cleaning his blue Rolls Royce
and she ran inside weeping.
.
She got to her room
and tears splashed the picture
of the new Messiah.
She picked up a book of her fathers life
and threw it on the fire!
.
.
She knew from the start
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were worlds apart,
But her Mother said never mind your part...Is to be
what you'll be.
...
..
The theme of the sermon was
come unto me,
Love will find a way,
So Sally decided to ignore her dad,
and sneak out anyway!
.
She spent all afternoon getting ready,
and decided she'd try to touch him,
Maybe he'd see that
she was free
and talk to her this Sunday.
.
.
She knew from the start
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were worlds apart,
But her Mother said never mind
your part...Is to be
what you'll be.
.
.
She arrived at six
and the place was swinging
to gospel music by nine.
Group after group appeared on the stage
and Sally just sat there crying.
.
She bit her nails looking pretty as a picture
right in the very front row
And then a DJ wearing a blazer
with a badge
ran on and said 'here we go!
..
The crowd went crazy
As Tommy hit the stage!
Little Sally got lost
as the police bossed
The crowd back in a rage!
.
.
But soon the atmosphere was cooler
as Tommy gave a lesson.
Sally just had to let him know
she loved him
and leapt up on the rostrum!
.
She ran cross stage to the spotlit figure
and touched him on the face
Tommy whirled around as a uniformed man,
threw her of the stage.
.
.
She knew from the start
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were worlds apart,
But her Mother said never mind your part...Is to be
what you'll be.
..
Her cheek hit a chair
and blood trickled down,
mingling with her tears,
Tommy carried on preaching
and his voice filled Sally's ear
.
She caught his eye she had to try
but couldn't see through the lights
Her face was gashed and the ambulance men
had to carry her out that night.
.
.
The crowd went crazy
As Tommy left the stage!
Little Sally was lost for the price of a touch
And a gash across her face!
.
.
OOoooh.
Sixteen stitches put her right
and her Dad said'don't say I didn't warn yer'.
Sally got married to a rock musicians
she met in California
.
Tommy always talks about the day
the disciples all went wild!
Sally still carries a scar on her cheek
to remind her of his smile.
She knew from the start
.
.
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were worlds apart,
But her Mother said never mind your part...Is to be
what you'll be.
