A TON of coffee please.

Oh oh, you gave me an in to headbang in this thread. Ronnie James Dio joined Sabbath in 1979 after they canned original vocalist Ozzy Osbourne, then left over conflicts with other band members in 1981 and founded Dio with Sabbath drummer Vinnie Appice.

Elmira

(small town in Ontario where I worked one summer)

I think the "Shankar's" part confused her. Is that part of the title? Or the star/director and the title is just "I"? Anyhow, in the interests of getting this back on track.

Jack Reacher

(how the **** do I keep getting stuck with X?)

Xantus' hummingbird

Wade in the Water - traditional spiritual

Tact - Pact

Angels dance on the pin.

Yay! Red is in. Now I have to get going.

Got some Kicking Horse 454 brewing in the coffee pot. For teas, I went with English Breakfast and Original Earl Grey. Washed the pitchers and put in some fresh iced tea and lemonade. Soda stock looks good. Hot water is available for other teas and hot chocolate.

Bit chilly round these here parts but it is April so not really unseasonable. Tomorrow is looking good, though.

My own comp entry is not progressing but I think I have a fairly light weekend coming up. Though for some reason my migraines always seem to hit on weekends these days, and that's not conducive to writing.

Nightwish's How's The Heart. This just shows that the music of Nightwish is so versatile. Simply the voice of Floor Jansen, accompanied by the acoustic guitar of Troy Donockley.+

I love both versions (the acoustic and the full band version) beyond all reason. Amazing piece of music.

Speaking of Floor, I had her solo album on in the car this morning.

Get Out

Nightcrawler

Late - Fate

Decide on your future today.

My first reactions were:

First was WTF?. I couldn't see either option at first.

Second was skull. Probably reflects my rather dark side (read some of my horror if you don't know what I mean)

Third was woman's face nicely outlined in by the flowers and butterfly.

Good day!!

Been busy with meetings this morning so just getting in. Putting on some Tobermory Flowerpot island coffee and some Green and Red Rose teas.

My flailing writing seems to be extending to this comp. Got either a beginning or an ending written but not sure I want to use it. Still, we shall see.

Eastern Promises

Jeff Lynne was in The Move for a few years, but later became famous for Electric Light Orchestra.

Two H's folks. You're getting sloppy. 😋

In the Still Of The Night - The Five Satins

And what the heck, probably The Ventures' most famous track and a spotlight tune for their drummer.

Quote by AnnaMayZing

The Shadows - Wonderful Land

I love this style of instrumental rock and The Shadows are the best. Amazing guitar work. The Ventures are pretty good at it, too.

A young Dick Clark introduces them here in a performance from 1960.

Also on that memorable double album was Phil Lynott of Thin Lizzy.

Not a chance. I don't even like looking over the edge of cliffs. As U2 put it, "Hello, hello, I'm at a place called Vertigo."

WYE bodysurf at rock concert/festival?

Neither is really an activity suited to me, but probably scuba dive (assuming I learn to swim better). I do have a fascination with sea life while I certainly do not with falling from the heavens (even with a chute, it's technically still falling, just controlled).

WYR dine out with a group or eat in with someone close?

Battle Beyond the Stars

Jackrabbit

(And that's a chameleon, not an iguana, isn't it? I've seen plenty of iguanas on my travels.)

Tuesday Afternoon... well not quite yet, but I did mentioned the Moody Blues in another thread so it came to mind. 😋

How's about some Kicking Horse Grizzly Claw for the coffee du jour?

And some Darjeeling and Raspberry Royale teas as well.

I’m excited about the comp. And in typical form, I wrote something, then hated it and deleted. Ha! On to idea #2 now.

I have a small window to get it written and published because come May, work gets crazy again, and I’m working in some time off.

Nice to see you, WG. I am not far enough along to have deleted anything yet so you're ahead of me. 😀 Unfortunately, my vacation isn't until after the comp deadline so have to work it in in other ways.

Today is the second day.

The late Denny Laine played guitar and co-wrote with Paul and Linda McCartney in Wings and was also the original guitarist and vocalist for the Moody Blues.

Haven't listened to Ghost in a while so had Meliora, my favourite Ghost album, on in the car.
