EVERYDAY (WHITE HOUSE ORGANIC KITCHEN GARDEN DEBACLE)






Everyday it's a getting closer






Going faster than a rollercoaster








NOTE:  MY KEY TAKEAWAY FROM THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN IS FOUND IN THe HIDEOUS tale relating THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH DECISION (IF IT WAS AN ACTUAL DECISION, RATHER THAN THE GROSSEST KIND OF SLOB NEGLIGENCE) TO ALLOW THE WHITE HOUSE organic KITCHEN GARDEN TO GO UNHARVESTED AND TO SEED AT THE END OF THE SUMMER GROWING SEASON.  WHO COULD CHOOSE TO DO THIS DELIBERATELY TO WASTE large quantities of HARVESTABLE FOOD?  WHY COULDNT MRS. OBAMA, HER CHILDREN, THEIR FRIENDS AND THE WHITE HOUSE chefs and KITCHEN staff pick, gather, share and distribute THE TOMATOES, OKRA, Kale, strawberries AND OTHER VEGETABLES ready ON THE VINE?  WOULD YOU LET YOUR OWN GARDEN BE WASTED AND DESTROYED LIKE THIS? Please click on THIS LINK FOR THE STORY THE NEWSPAPERS FORGOT.  Where are you now, Alice waters?

BE-BOP BABY






Be-bop baby
Be-bop baby
Be-bop baby
She's the gal for me.

She got plenty of rhythm
Got plenty of jive
And when we dance it really comes alive
 
My love for her's so tender and sweet
My heart starts pounding
Every time we meet.

I'm gonna find her tonight
We're gonna have a time
I want that baby to be mine, all mine

A big day's comin' for my baby and me
The day she says she belongs to me.
Be-bop baby
Be-bop baby
Be-bop baby
She's the gal for me.







NOTE:  I really love Ricky Nelson's records and always have.  Be-bob baby, written by Pearl Lendhurst,  is just great.  Posting this portion of the lyrics, and the wonderful and touching photo of Eddie Cochran and Sharon Sheeley immediately above, feels like such a privilege in these benighted times *.
