The Nostalgia Thread

[TED Ferrell]

Sometimes No Is A Slow Yes

Verse One

There are times we ask someone did you like the show

They just shake their head and say the answer is a no

Still you persist by pointing out about the overall quality

Hoping they will change their mind and with you agree

Chorus

Sometimes no is a slow yes

No way may turn into well maybe I guess

Some of it wasn't too bad more or less

Let me think about it before I say yes

Sometimes no is a slow yes

Verse Two

Not to long ago I was pursuing a very sweet attractive lady

I came on pretty strong soon I was talking about matrimony

She said no way Jose am I ever going to walk down that aisle

You are a nice enough fella but marrying you just ain't my style

Did not give up thinking I guess that must be her final word

I just kept on courting her ignoring the no's like I never heard

She begin to slowly change her mind till one day she did confess

The no I told you yesterday well sweetheart today is a big yes

Ted,

No words can describe the joy I have seeing you in love.

Thank you Moon Girl!

I smiled until it turned into tears for the walk that you just took us on. And for the continued verses to your life.

:wub: to you both

[Sudo]

Cowgirl,

I'm hurrying! But I see you're not back yet so I can guess. It's that country band, Mississippi, right? No wait.. wrong state... Georgia? No... that's not right.. It must be somewhere between the two. :P

sudo (still waiting to see if Rick show's up and guesses THIS! one)

[A la prochaine]

Ted,

Wow!! :o

You wrote a song after my suggestion.

You are a doll and I gotta' say that that Moony Lady is one lucky woman! :wub:

Sudo,

Thank you for the warm welcome.

It is appreciated ;)

and by the way, cute hints on the 'ALA' song.

Talking about lyrics... I have recently fallen in love with this song and its lyrics.

The singer is Sarah Harmer and the song 'How Deep In The Valley'

It's a longing, spiritual and makes you realize that sometimes living in that valley is an ok place. Her voice and her soulful simple rootsie sound makes me feel at home.

Sorry, don't know how to post songs.. but will post the lyrics.

enjoy.

................................................................................

..........

How deep in the valley

How deep in the valley must you go

To find what your footsteps already know

The way on is the way out

There are signs to follow

There is deep in the valley

And I’m bound to go

How deep in the valley must you stay

To know why your footsteps led you that way

The way on may be truly to stand in one place

And let the deep of the valley

Fill you will grace

And treat yourself lightly

Treat yourself kind

You’ve got nothing to worry on

You will be fine

You will leave this place laughing

And somebody will cry

There is deep in the valley

Wonder not why

Wonder not why go

Wonder not to stay

If it takes me and I follow

Or if I lead the way

It can come when it wants to

But it might have to wait

There is deep in the valley

I don’t hesitate

I don’t take it too lightly

But it don’t weigh down too low

There is high on the cliff top

And there are deep creeks below

There’s a green shade you can’t miss

Where the spring water flows

There is deep in the valley

And I’m bound to go

How deep in the valley must you go

To find what your footsteps already know

The way on is the way out

There are signs to follow

There is deep in the valley

And I’m bound to go.

sorry... this is so long... i expected it to be seperate posts... oh well :unsure:

My dear friends,

I have a computer question for some of you wizards around here.

I recently did a major boo-boo :unsure: on my computer...and I somehow deleted my windows on my taskbar at the bottom of my desktop.

Meaning, when you have several windows open at once they can be minimized at the bottom of your desktop in your taskbar. And, if you are chatting lets say, the windows can flash orange to let you know that the person has responded. All of this has now disappeared :mellow: :huh: and all that are left are icons ???

My husband and daughter have spent much time trying to solve this mysterious dilemma but to no avail. Any takers???

thanks.

I think you'll find your answer by right clicking on the start button, then clicking on Properties. This is where the setting for the taskbar can be found.

[Sudo]

Ala,

Probably the easiest way would be to use 'system restore' unless you're on Windows 98. Click on the Start button and go up to the help and support button.. System Restore will be there for Windows XP.

I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack !!

This is for ALA !!!

Cowgirl,

Wow! That was fast!! :o

Thank you! I love that line.... "let the deep of the valley fill you with grace"

hhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmm fills my insides with warmth and joy. :)

Cowgirl....you've made my day! :D

Merci mon amie.

Sudo and Sushi-guy,

Thanks for your input...I will certainly attempt your suggestions...

They did the Sushi suggestion for quite a while...but didn't work....maybe the Sudo suggestion will work.

Thank you.

[bowtwi]

Here's a New Year's Day song. I have more I think you'll enjoy.

<a href=ftp://mom.baygeeks.com/NewYearsDay.wav>HERE!</a>

I'm sorry. I'll try again tomorrow after sudo gets a look at what I did. I've tried to adjust it several different ways, but I'm not seeing my mistake.

I wanted to post my favorite New Years song, but alas it is on tape, not cd. So maybe one of you more savy people can find it. It's "New Years Day" by U2

[A la prochaine]

I can post the lyrics...

SUNDAY MORNING AFTER

Amanda Marshall

I woke up with a killer hangover

Hope it was worth all this pain

(I'd do it all over again)

By the time the party was over

Tequila was my claim to fame

(I couldn't remember my name)

I was dancing with Jake when I last saw my keys

That was my first mistake

'Cause, what happened to me?

I look down at my arm, baby

And something's lookin' back at me

And I cannot believe it

CHORUS:

Oh my God!-- I woke up with a snake tattoo

Oh my God!-- and I think that my tongue's pierced, too

Oh my God!-- Oh my God!

It's the Sunday morning after

And baby, who the hell are you?

I remember yelling, "Hey, DJ!"

"Jack the volume, I love this song!"

(And then it all gets hazy)

And my clothes are selling on e-bay

And I don't know what I'm gonna put on

(Where were my friends to save me?)

I blacked out I came to

And it's all such a blur

Had a blast, I assume

But I'm really not sure

Exactly where am I now, baby?

Wake up and tell me your name

'Cause this is insane

CHORUS

Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!

My alter ego took over and took me on a fantasy ride

You can take me anywhere twice

But the second time will be to apologize

CHORUS x 2

Where am I...?, What am I...?, Who am I...?, How am I...?,

How did I...?

Sorry bowtwi but I tried all I knew to do and couldn't get your link posted for you. Sorry sweetie, but I'm sure Sudo or Rick will come to the rescue.

[Sushi]

Seems to me, Bow, you need to get rid of the a href at the beginning of the addy and start with ftp:. Once I did that, I could get to the site, but not hear anything, as it wouldn't let me in.

[Bluzeman]

TEST

It looks like your missing a directory after the mom.baygeeks.com, as it seems to find that part.

Bow jr, is working on changing something to fix this problem. I'm laughing tho, cause this song has to do with tequila too, Ala - great minds...

Turns out this server space I'm using is set up for only me. I'm sorry. I didn't know that. I thought I had explained what I was planning to do, but now after Bow jr and sudo talked this morning, I'm confident I'll be able to post my next song without any problem.

Meanwhile, for the last time this year, Good morning!

I just wanted to interrupt this program and point out how wonderful our men here are. Rick, Sudo and Sushi all tried to help bowtwi. Now that is a community of folks that help and I love hanging with them and all here (just in case that went unnoticed). :)

[Sudo]

Bowtwi,

Bow Jr. appears to be a real professional and it was a pleasure talking to him. I hope you're not a bit miffed I talked to Bow Jr. FIRST.. But I had to talk to who actually had control of the site. Looks like its going to work. Man.. what a voice Bow Jr. has. When he answered the phone (it being Saturday and thinking they might be closed) I thought it was a custom made answering message I was hearing.

You guys like tequila?? Click HERE! I might have posted this not too long back.. it was the hit around Allentown this past Thanksgiving.

I first heard this song around Thanksgiving (of all places in the car on the way to church). I laughed so much.

Bowtwi what was that other one? ;)

Edited December 31, 2005 by moony3424

Bowtwi,

You've got the right directory and commands.... now all we need is the New Years file. You posted one that might have been a hit 61 days ago! :P
