Show Me The Way

I DailyLove® this car.

El Camino
Makin' the Scene
1964

•••

El Camino, El El Camino,
El Camino, El El Camino.

It's handsome like a car,
and it works just like a truck.

The front is where you drive,
and the back is where you ...

El Camino, El El Camino,
El Camino, El El Camino.

Show Me The Way

I'm In Love With My Car
(Buy: Queen: A Night At The Opera)

Jesus Built My Hotrod
(Buy: Ministry: Psalm 69: The Way To Succeed And The Way To Suck Eggs)

And, even though it's not an El Camino tune, it rocks the car theme perfectly for me. I hope for you too.

Am I Blue?

"The most beautiful skies as a matter of fact."

Well, yes I am. As a matter of fact, I'm sky blue!

I have no excuses (other than blue skies and beautiful weather) why I haven't written for the last 3 weeks.

So, without further ado, I owe you a picture (above) and some music (below). And, a (false) promise that I'll try to be more diligent in posting.

Enjoy everything! (And get outside! These computer screens are no good for you!)

And, just because I seem to have these last two songs in my head today, they're yours, also. And, yes, "Blue Skies" would have been an obvious post-up today as well, but, I just don't dig that one as much as these.

Revival
Little Martha

Charlton Heston, R.I.P.

A real straight-shooter (although, a little to the right in my humble opinion).

Charlton Heston, 1924-2008
Prideful, independent and valorific.
He was the N.R.A.

We can only wonder who will step it up as our next celebrity spokesperson for the right to carry our homeland semi-automatic .50 caliber BMG's.

Now, will somebody please pry that thing "from his cold, dead hands!"
