Rasta, to music

I've been up about 3 hours, listening to tunes. Might as well share some?

Prompted by someone who's first memory of catchy instrumentals forgot about the early 60s. Instrumentals were big from 1940, to 1960s. I've seen folks dancing to this one.

One of those can't do anything days, cold outside, still damp, some flurries, and I've been out, or I wouldn't have bothered to dress. I think I might have a hot shower and crawl in bed and hope I wake up for the evening news.
(I've been quite sick recently, I need rest)

Once I shut down my PC, I'm not online much. I'll probably pop back at some ungodly hour, slept out

In the summer, in my rural home, ladies would cover their heads, when bats swoop to catch the mosquitoes that the carbon dioxide of your body attracts.

I have an old home, the wood that bats are attracted to, like old barns, the wood is 100+ years old.

When I replaced windows, I had to go around and manually gather the bats and put them out before the new window. That was 2008. I bought a bat hotel for them. Never saw one since. One year, all our disappeared.

Rasta,

@johnefrancis I hope that WNS doesn't hit there. One year, they were everywhere, and the bathouse has never had a bat. We lost all our bats

Rasta,

@Susan60 Very sad. My wife isn't as fond of them because they flutter above her head, but I'm fascinated and concerned about them.

Did you find the Eggs?

Rasta,

@HailSatan I've heard similar Idiomatic expressions like that.
When we need a pee, we might say, "I need to see a man about a horse" Those things don't translate well

Rasta,

@melissabeartrix I bet it's because you use chopsticks. I'm more into spooning dates 😉

Rasta,

@melissabeartrix
You know what they say?
You want me to call again?

Rasta,

@melissabeartrix Soon as I get to town darlin'.. which might be awhile, so don't turn back the snuggle bunk just yet

Michigan U.S. Rep. Tim Walberg said the solution in Gaza “should be like Nagasaki and Hiroshima” and said the U.S. “shouldn’t be spending a dime on humanitarian aid”

@Caiotekit Do you know, I never liked Math. I made up my mind that I was never going to use it, I wasn't going to be a rocket scientist. And then I became a Professional Engineer, and spent years of Physics, Chemistry, Thermodynamics, Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus and Rules of Thumb.
I'd brought that grief on myself by not paying attention to its value, in school

Rasta,

@Caiotekit Our trade structure got rid of all the non-academics long before my rank. But then they let some try again, by letting them relearn math, two weeks before the advanced course that didn't teach it, but tested detailed things. I didn't remember the formulas, and they would not give them to us. Luckily I remember weird stuff I read

Both cats have fallen asleep and rolled off my desk. At least he's facing the right way now, but higher than before.

If he slipped, he'd just grab the TV

Rasta,

@GuitarSith It was Steve's birthday yesterday #RIP The Rocfella

I got to hold my new grandson today. I was ignoring your notifications. Not sorry. He's beautiful. Now I want one.

Rasta,

@cobalt It was amazing. I'm weak. I haven't held a grandson like that in 20 years. And I have three of them now, one I've never seen.
At least this one is local.

Rasta,

@cobalt I'm such an emotional old guy now. It brings tears to my eyes I was so overwhelmed.

Rasta,

@Caiotekit I love holding them. I was away and my wife raised out kids. My grandson and his mother moved in with us for a few years. I'm up early, and my daughter knew it. I was a full time nanny, I'd rock him, I had a little sway, I'd put on some Harry Bellefonte, and he's probably needing therapy for it now. But, he grew up knowing the greats.
When I wake early, I'm full of energy and love nothing better than rocking my grandchild for an hour

Rasta,

@Caiotekit I can't wait until it gets to be a normal thing for my son, to want a night out, and only grandparents are appropriate for babysitting. I've trained for this for 22 years

SENATE GOP MEETING:

"Before we discuss raising taxes on the poor & middle class, adding $1 trillion to the deficit, taking health insurance away from 13 million, raising premiums by 10%, defending treason and swearing in a pedophile, let's begin with a prayer."

Rasta,

@Caiotekit You are older than me. #Neener LOL My sister was in grade 11 then too.

Rasta,

@Caiotekit little bit, It makes me feel creepy looking at 30 year olds

Rasta,

@Caiotekit Some fine young 50 year old women out there, but my wife won't let me date them either LOL

Rasta,

@Caiotekit There's some hot looking 70s out there too, but I'm not one of them LOL , I've a few more years yet.
Doesn't mean I can't sample the wares.
