What an Amazing Hour.

I have to keep a hospital appointment this morning and i become a people watcher too. Though my phone doesn\'t work in the hospital I\'m amazed at the amount of people glued to theirs. They must be playing games I think. I usually buy a paper!

Phew, a miracle then! A fine write Gold.
if I try people-watching too long I get scowls, then look away, and give up!
Watch out, as a few nasty ones will say \'What, or who, ya looking at?\'

I\'m sure if he did say \"they are here\" they would\'ve made sure we did not hear that. Great and amusing piece!!

Heehee, yes, didn\'t we hide in Apollo 10, then sneak on to the moon, and wait for visitors?! I\'m sure this is a 99% true write.

personally, I prefer caffeine tablets.
been taking them for 45 years.
they are not for everyone.
1 or 2 a day if I feel groggy.
and don\'t want to sleep.
lots of times I don\'t take any. your wife already forgave you. so carry on. Mozart is music with class.

Andy,
Of course she forgave you. It was Mozart who influenced her to do so!
Loved the piece along with Mozart.
Love to Joyce and you!

The still lifes ME produces are the artworks i find most appealing. Amazing imagination assembles pieces of driftwood to tantalise a story from within us.

Thanks so much Andy - I feel deeply honoured. It really means so much to receive such a tribute. I think the earlier posting to which you refer is called Correctness.

THANKS ANDY ~ You always speak a lot of sense to those of us who are still \"growing up\". The under 40\'s embrace the CYBER WORLD because we have been reared in it ! But it increasingly makes us dependent on it.I use the WEB instead of encyclopedias & dictionaries etc but in some way it is much less fun ! However there are positives like MPS ! We no longer write letters or get foreign stamps and emails are instant which increases the pace. I would love to sail to New Zealand instead of flying 3 weeks instead of 2 days ! Now with cyber conferencing I don\'t get an expenses paid trip to Heidelberg for a CHEMISTRY CONFERENCE Even in my short working lifetime (17 years) I have seen the pace of life (information / communication etc) triple and if I wasn\'t a Christian I would be stressed out. By the way ~ the pace of life in New Zealand seems much more sedate ~ so perhaps we will emigrate ! Love JAZZ PIANO and Oscar Peterson in particular ~ thanks for sharing. Its now Tuesday Morning in ROTORUA ! Angela is in the shower and sends her love ~ I\'m catching up on MPS !
Yours (in NZ) BRIAN & ANGELA. Love & Blessings to JOYCE XXXX

I dont believe you Goldfinch LOL. Somehow i don\'t see you as a fellah dashing around because some machine clicks your number or something. I know i don\'t - other than traffic lights. Generally i\'m a rebel to machine world\'s expectations.

Andy,
That man should listen to some John Miller music as I just did...thanks to you!
Maybe that will make him smile like John Payne and Sonja Henie in the clip! He might even get the urge to dance!
Oh well, to each his own I guess!
Have a wonderful day.
Love to Joyce and you.

Andy,
The last two lines make a whole lot of sense. Sometimes I do think that these darn machines are doing their best to rule us. And who’s responsible for that? Not the machines...
Humans are!
I enjoyed the clip!
Thank you for sharing.
Love to Joyce and you!

A fine and true write Gold. We\'re dashing to the moon and beyond, literally. We\'ve already reached the moon. We\'ll meet ourselves coming back before long.
Some don\'t stop at accidents even. Some may not know what to do (First Aid), but some carry on as if nothing happened, and someone is laying in the road, for example.

I love this song! World War 2 was a topic for a competition I participated in and one of the fields studied was music, since then I\'ve always listened to more jazz from the 40s like this!

Great observational piece. Begs the question - where are these people mentally? Most of us have a \'social front\' we present to the world and we rarely let it down unless we are upset or in a period of depression. So it is difficult to relate to such people.
A similar thing which raises a smile within me is the collection of oblivious strollers we meet who wear an obscure grimace as they pound along the pavements. I\'m chuckling now, i\'m sure some of the are quite frightening to little old ladies.

THANKS UNCLE ANDY: As a physiotherapist I have learned that : the expression on a persons Face is a reflection of the mood of their Mind & Spirit. At least I am allowed to tickle them and make them smile! We see a lot more smiles in NZ than the UK and we know why. The MAORI are always smiling! Brian & I both love GLEN and In the MOOD is a classic. Brian gives a lovely talk and CD presentation on the Life & Music of GLEN MILLER! Have a great DAY : Smiling is infectious : love to JOYCE : Love ANGELA XXXX

A true write unfortunately. Some may have reasons to be gloomy, I suppose. But some just grunt, without so much as a \'please\' or \'thank you\'.

Andy,
I enjoyed “Stranger On The Shore”.
Very soothing and peaceful.
It’s a great piece to begin my day with.
I like the idea of “Cafe Church”. Speak to one another...that’s the key!
Have a wonderful day.
Love to Joyce and you!
