tex ritter

”Pop” is a misnomer here, but this is the “hot 100” or popular songs chart (not “pop music” in the sense of Frank Sinatra or Perry Como, who have also graced this list). And what else goes with a Tex Ritter song but this?...

At least this is a good counterbalance to that country song I just posted. If you’re wondering (or even if you aren’t), we’re at songs #77 on the alphabetical lists of my favorite charted songs. Here’s one that...

My 100 Favorite Charted Pop Songs: Take It to the Limit

Four Walls @FourWalls (68014) • United States 20 Nov

We were a bit overdue for a spaghetti night, so I made up a batch, and it was as delicious as ever with plenty leftover. The only change I made was that I had half a box of regular spaghetti noodles and half a box of fettucine...

Beautiful Day

Jim Bauer @porwest (90876) • United States 19 Nov

I have to say, this weather so far this fall has been more than welcome, having to barely keep the heat turned on, and having several days when I can open the windows and just let the fresh air in. Today is a day like that with...

NJ Chicaa It was 63 F when I left work today. Just a bit too cold to put the top down on my car. I love doing that and having the windows open here. It is a bit too cold for that and we are supposed to get rain later. We need it though so I won't complain.

I Hope the Weather Holds Out

Jim Bauer @porwest (90876) • United States 19 Nov

Yesterday I would have liked to have gotten out to mulch the leaves yet another time, but it was rainy all day and there's no way I'd want to try to mulch wet leaves. So far the weather is working out this morning and I hope it...

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (28846) • Lichfield, England 19 Nov

I'm not going shopping to the little Tesco today because it has SNOWED! (See picture above.) When I got up this morning and saw the snow on the back garden I was horrified! I don't like snow. It's OK on pictures or on Christmas...

NJ Chicaa Like you I am okay with some of them like Rubio and Burgum. RFK Jr, Matt Gaetz, and Tulsi Gabbard are absolutely insane and dangerous picks. That guy for DoD too. I would be surprised if Gaetz gets confirmed. My understanding is that the Senate doesn't go...

Along with the country music you get a rock song. And today, you’ll probably be pulling your hair out either way. Fear not, there will be better days (not to mention that there are only 25 left after today)....
