Hi Rosie, You wrote: I think I'm going through the summer time blues and don't quite know what to do about it. Any suggestions? I'm sorry to hear that. Of all the people on the Porch, I don't think I've ever noticed you as being blue or down or sad. (Actually your tied with several people like Hammering Rick, Dealie, Volty, and a few others.) You are always quick with a joke or a smile. Even when we are beating up Clown Killers, you always remain friendly and happy. That's a nice quality to have. Hopefully these summertime blues blow away quickly like an August thunder storm. (My dog hides under the bed until it goes away. I count the time in between the lightning and thunder... If it's really loud, I hide under the bed and count with the dog. I never tried it with the blues though. However, I don't suggest you hide under the bed until your blues disappear... Try counting instead...) I wish I had an answer for you. However, as it's been said: There Ain't no cure for the sumertime blues... -CochransGuitar Summertime Blues Alan Jackson Written By Eddie Cochran/Jerry Capehart Copyright 1958 (Renewed) Well, I’m a-gonna raise a fuss I’m gonna raise a holler About workin’ all summer Just to try an’ earn a dollar (a reference to my stock picks, I think...) <ggg> Everytime I call my baby To try to get a date My boss says, “No dice, son You gotta work late” Sometimes I wonder what I’m gonna do Cause there ain’t no cure For the summertime Blues Well my mom ‘n’ papa told me “Son, you gotta make some money: “If you wanna use the car to go ridin’ next Sunday” Well, I didn’t go to work Told the boss I was sick “Now you can’t use the car Cause you didn’t work a lick” Sometimes I wonder what I’m gonna do ‘Cause there ain’t no cure For the summertime blues I’m gonna take two weeks Gonna have a vacation I’m gonna take my problem To the United Nation Well, I called my congressman And he said quote “I’d like to help you son But you’re too young to vote” Sometimes I wonder what I’m gonna do Cause there ain’t no cure For the summertime blues Well I’m a-gonna raise a fuss I’m gonna raise a holler About workin’ all summer Just to try an’ earn a dollar Sometimes I wonder what I’m gonna do ‘Cause there ain’t no cure For the summertime blues Yeah, sometimes I wonder What I’m gonna do Cause there ain’t no cure For the summertime blues

Hi rose, I was one of those folks gone on holiday & just now catching up on the porch. Since you seem to like good movies, maybe you would be pleasantly entertained by going to see a play. My wife & some good friends spent the weekend in Morgantown, WV. We went to see a mutual friend who now hails from Austin. He was the equity stage manager in the Creative Arts Center's Summer Stock program. We saw West Side Story. It was an excellent performance. We got to go to their farewell party last night as today is the last day for them & they will begin to work their way home or their next gig tonight. Needless to say, it was a fantastic weekend ;-) Give it a try. You may be glad you did.
