| Bottle of Wine by Thomas CunnighamWed, 07 Jan 2009 11:50:12 -0800 by elweeklyThis is a song by Thomas Cunningham, a fine young lad who can sing really well. He is good to listen to for a good wave session, even though I have no idea how to surf. Here are the lyrics:Timing and its focusIt's what ruins and it dopes usReality ain't the same, if you don't play the gameCause I'm tired and it's hopelessI'm not beaten, but I'm brokenWords I've never spokenWhat do you say? what do you say?I guess you can't look up to me that wayI guess you can't look up to me that wayIs it fire or is it smoke?Or should we just go for brokeHere comes boredom and it's uselessI think life should come all inclusiveAt least a little less abusiveWhat do you say? what do you say?I guess you can't look up to me that wayI guess you can't look up to me that wayThe bottle of wine was fine this timeAnd I really don't think it's changedThe bottle of wine was fine this time.But oh, how I think you've changedTiming and its focusIt's what ruins and it dopes usReality ain't the same if you don't play the gameHere comes boredom and it's uselessI think life should come all inclusiveAt least a little less abusiveWhat do you say what do you sayI guess you can't look up to me that wayI guess you can't look up to me that wayThe bottle of wine was fine this timeAnd I really don't think it's changedThe bottle of wine was fine this time.But oh, how I think you've changed [x3]I don not own this song, nor this photo. I only own the love for this song ;) Related: beach bottle cunningham of thomas wave wine | |

| 6 Year Old Drives 10 Miles To SchoolWed, 07 Jan 2009 07:44:55 -0800 by TheSexyPatriotWASHINGTON - The word "miracle" can be overused. But when a 6-year-old boy drives a Ford Taurus for more than 10 miles, weaving in and out of oncoming traffic, slams into a utility pole and no one gets hurt, well, maybe miracle is appropriate.That's what happened Monday in Virginia, when the 1st grader missed his school bus and decided to drive his mom's car to elementary school so he wouldn't miss breakfast and PE, authorities said Tuesday."It's a miracle that somebody didn't get killed," said Northumberland County Sheriff Chuck Wilkins, of the boy's drive along Northumberland Highway.The boy's parents were arrested and charged with felony child endangerment. Wilkins said the father, David Dodson, 40, was under court order not to leave the 6-year-old and his 4-year-old sibling alone with their mother, Jacqulyn Waltman, 26, at their home in the town of Wicomico Church.But Dodson left for work at 6:30 a.m., and Waltman was still asleep when the 6-year-old missed the bus and drove off at 7:40 a.m. for Northumberland Elementary School, Wilkins said. The boy was placed in foster care.Sgt. Thomas Cunningham of the Virginia State Police said the boy is not particularly tall for his age and was "possibly standing" while driving the Taurus. Wilkins said the child had an idea about how to start, propel and steer the car from playing video games.Once he got going, the boy navigated across a bridge spanning the Great Wicomico River. He also made it through two intersections, Wilkins said, and then was "doing a pretty great rate of speed" as he passed cars on a two-lane road while not wearing a seat belt.The boy had gone 10.4 miles and was about a mile and a half from his school, the sheriff said, when he decided to cross the double line and pass again. But this time, he saw a tractor-trailer coming toward him in the other lane.He quickly whipped the car back into his lane, but the car swerved out of control and then struck a utility pole on the rear passenger side.Northumberland deputies Jeff VanLandingham and Roger Briney arrived first. "He was crying, hysterical," Briney said, "not from any pain; he was just adrenalined up on fright." Briney said another motorist said she'd been driving 60 m.p.h., and the boy had sped past her.Briney said he unzipped the boy's coat to check for injuries, found none, zipped it back up and the boy turned and walked away. "I said, 'Where are you going?' " Briney said. "He said, 'My school's right over there. I'm late.' I said, 'We'll get you to school.'

| Suzi Quatro - Heartbreak Hotel (1977)Tue, 06 Jan 2009 22:33:31 -0800 by JBauder1948Suzi Quatro (born Susan Kay Quatronella, June 3, 1950, Detroit, Michigan) is an American singer-songwriter, musician, radio personality and actress. She was born into a Catholic musical family. Her father, Art, a part time jazz musician, was of Italian descent, while her mother, Helen Sanislay, was Hungarian. She is the aunt of actress Sherilyn Fenn, whose mother is Quatro's sister Arlene. Quatro began her musical career playing bass in the all-female band Pleasure Seekers and Cradle with her sisters Patti, Nancy, and Arlene. Her first bass was a 1957 Fender Precision, given to her by her dad. Patti Quatro later joined the band Fanny, one of the earliest all-female rock bands to gain national attention. She has a brother, Michael Quatro, who is also a musician. Quatro moved to the UK in 1971 after being discovered in Detroit by record producer Mickie Most, who produced The Animals, Jeff Beck, Lulu and Donovan. By this time he had started his own label RAK Records, which made stars of Hot Chocolate and Mud. Quatro's first single "Rolling Stone" did not achieve popularity anywhere except Portugal, where it made number one. Most introduced Quatro to the songwriting and production team Nicky Chinn/Mike Chapman.[10] Her second single "Can the Can" (1973) was a number one hit throughout Europe and in Australia. It was followed up by three further hits: "48 Crash" (1973), "Daytona Demon" (1973) and "Devil Gate Drive" (1974) on RAK Records. Her first two albums were also European and Australian successes. These recordings, however, met little success in her native U.S., despite tours in the mid-1970s supporting Alice Cooper, and, except in Australia, the popularity of Quatro's rocking glam rock declined from 1975. In the interim, she did enjoy success as a session player. Quatro's fortunes did not change until 1978 when "If You Can't Give Me Love" became a hit in the UK and Australia. This did nothing to prompt Stateside success, but "Stumblin' In", a duet recorded that same year for RSO Records with Chris Norman of Smokie secured peaked at #4. Both tracks featured on the 'If You Knew Suzi' album. A year later, Quatro released 'Suzi... And Other Four Letter Words'. She called it her favourite album. This featured singles, such as "She's In Love With You", which made number 11 in the UK , Mama's Boy (34) and I've Never Been In Love (56). This success proved brief however, and her last UK hit was "Heart of Stone" in late 1982. In 1985 Quatro collaborated with Bronski Beat and members of The Kinks, Eddie & The Hot Rods, and Dr Feelgood on the Mark Cunningham-produced version of David Bowie's classic "Heroes", released the following year as the 1986 BBC Children In Need single. In December 2005, a documentary chronicling Quatro's life, "Naked under leather" directed by former Runaway Victory Tischler Blue appeared. In February 2006, Quatro released "Back To the Drive", produced by Sweet guitarist Andy Scott. The album's title track was penned by her former collaborator Mike Chapman. March 2007 saw Quatro release a version of The Eagles' "Desperado", followed by publication her autobiography, "Unzipped." She is known in the United States as Leather Tuscadero in the TV show Happy Days. Show producer Garry Marshall offered the role without an audition after seeing her on his daughter's bedroom wall. Leather was the younger sister of Fonzie's girlfriend, hot-rod driver Pinky Tuscadero. Leather fronted an all-girl rock band joined by principal character Joanie Cunningham. The character returned in other cameo roles, including once for a date to a fancy fraternity formal with Ralph Malph. Marshall offered Quatro a Leather Tuscadero spin-off, but she refused saying she did not want to be typecast. ~ Wikipedia.com Related: rock | |
