Long, long ago...

Been feeling nostalgic this evening, meandering around youtube. Lots of good music from my past...

I can't count how many times I saw them do this dueling drums bit in concert, and the Breakfast in Hell song...



LOVED Grover, can't believe he never made it big...(and yes, this is who I named my cat after, lol)...


And yes, I have to admit I DID see Stryper in concert back in their heyday, even met them backstage. No group of guys should have hair as good as they did...

I love this book

I was so excited to get a brand new copy of Paul Gallico's "Snow Goose" this week. Most of my copies have been battered old copies, scavenged at used book stores, as it's been out of print more than in. It's one of the first books I truly fell in love with. Short, simple, breathtakingly beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. Hallmark Hall of Fame made a wonderful film adaptation years ago, but it's never made it to video/dvd due to years of legal wrangling between Hallmark and the author's family. A big film company was set to start work on a big screen version complete with big name cast last year. Alas, budget and scheduling problems have apparently sunk that project, perhaps permanently. If you've never read it, grab a copy now and read it!
