Don't Stop Drinking, Until The Bottle Is Empty !!

Greetings Worlds - How are you are turning today ?!

I wasn't going to write anything today - but, I'm 'home alone' at the moment, so I thought "why not" !!  It is the last day of the year after all !!  Yep - December 31st 2011 is here & tomorrow will be 2012 !!  If I'm right, some people think the Worlds are coming to an end this coming year.... Hmmmmm that could be interesting !!  We'll have to wait & see what happens.......

Ok - as mentioned - I'm home here by myself.... well, sort of....... B has taken ME to work & won't be home for an hour or so , so that's the ladies of the house - as for J, well.... he is here, but he is going away for a week & won't be here much longer - so, that leaves me here on my own.... if that makes any sense ?!

So - as it's the last day of the year, I'm playing tracks from the very first Lp I ever owned !!  From 1967, I give you The Monkees....... Yep.... the first album I ever owned, was The Monkees 'Headquarters' album !!

Give me a break - I was young & I enjoyed the TV show - so, my folks gave me the album as a gift, along with a record player - one of the things that were about in the '60s.... it served me very well for a year or two........ oh well !!

For what it's worth - my second album - was Jimi Hendrix's 'Greatest Hits' or something.....  even then, I enjoyed a wide selection of music....... from then on - well, things got out of hand really & now I'm surrounded by music !!

Oh yes.... I think I finally totalled the number of Cd's we have.... it's not 100% - but at the moment, we have just over 3500 Cd's around the house !!  For those who have not been reading for a while, I started counting

the Cd's way back & I think that's about all of them !!

It's not exact - because I've not counted all the Cd's I've had this month, or all of the Led Zeppelin collection !!  But, I think that's close enough for jazz........  I'll have to list the latest things, from Christmas, but..... it's close enough !!

The Monkees have just about finished, so the music of the moment is the Grateful Dead's Oregon concert, from August 22nd 1993.... just put disc 3 in the machine & am now being surrounded by their 'space & drums' track - all 30+ minutes of it !!  A bit of a change from The Monkees & that's for sure !!  I could put my new headphones on - but..... I'm happy playing stuff thru' the speakers !!

Anyhoooo - I ought to leave on a high note.... being the end of the year & all...... but, I can't think of anything too exciting to say !!  Maybe, the words I told my Son, the last time I saw him. "Don't stop drinking, until the bottle is empty"

In other words - don't give up.... our life - "the bottle" - is never empty, until the good Lord says it is !!  Wow - that's kind of deep !!  happy New Year everyone !!  Until next time......

Bye Bye
