More Johnny Cash in my head...

This morning it's...

Highway Patrolman

The night was like any other, I got a call 'bout a quarter 'til nine
There was trouble at a road house, out on the Michigan line
There was a kid on the floor looking bad, bleeding hard from his head
There was a girl crying at a table,"It was Frankie" she said

I ran out and jumped in my car, then I hit the lights
I must of did about 110, in Michigan County that night
It was down by the crossroad, out by Willow Bank
Seen a Buick with Ohio plates, behind the wheel was Frank

Well I chased him through them county roads, 'til the sign said
"Canadian Boarder Five Miles from Here"
Pulled over to the side of the highway, watched the tail lights disappear

Yeah me and Frankie laughing and drinking
Nothing feels better than blood with blood
Taking turns dancing with Maria
While the band plays "The Night of the Johnstown Flood

I catch him when he's straying, like any brother should
Man turns his back on his family, he ain't no good"

... it would be really good if the music was running thru your head when you read the lyrics. There's probably a way to post just a snippet of the song. Then you could enjoy the endless loop with me! (and I would be only mildly violating copyrights)


I'm trying out the Google News. (Yes, more wasted time)
There is the personalized search. My keyword search for news...

Not very interesting huh?

And lot's of similar links reporting the reaction of the Canadian dollar to the election of conservative victory & BoC rate announcement.

Regular news on my Google page (NY Times, BBC, Google News World & Business):

Wow. Palestinian's are having an election. AND Hamas has been pulled into the process! Sullen & not participating is Islamic Jihad. Their loss.

Hamas has a real opportunity to affect change. Learn damnit, learn.
Make them learn with tic-tac-toe? Like War Games with Matthew Broderick?
Only here its not a simulation. A lota people died in the learning process.

And to end on a somber note.
Iraq Rebuilding Badly Hobbled, U.S. Report Finds
from NY Times.

Anyways, don't all ways (correct spelling!) expect these News summaries in the future.
Lots of other blogs do this. And with much for flair and panache.
