*"I Can't Drive 55" -Sammy Hagar*

One foot on the brake and one on the gas, hey!
Well, there's too much traffic, I can't pass, no!
So I tried my best illegal move
A big black and white come and crushed my groove again!

CHORUS:
Go on & write me up for 125
Post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license n' all that jive
I can't drive 55! Oh No! Uh!

So I signed my name on number 24, hey!
Yeah the judge said, "Boy, just one more
I'm gonna throw your ass in the city joint"
Looked me in the eye, said, "You get my point?"
I said "Yeah!, Oh yea!"

CHORUS II:
Write me up for 125
Post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license, all that jive
I can't drive 55!
Oh, yea!

I can't drive 55! (four times)
Uh! (Solo)

When I drive that slow, you know it's hard to steer.
And I can't get my car out of second gear.
What used to take two hours now takes all day.
Huh - It took me 16 hours to get to L.A.!

CHORUS:
Go on & write me up for 125
Post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license n' all that jive
I can't drive 55!

No, no, no, I can't drive...(I can't drive 55!)
I can't drive... (I can't drive 55!)
I can't drive 55!

"She Runs Hot" by Little Village

Sittin' on the line
Tryin' to change her mind
Red light, yellow light, green light time.
You're standing on it buddy
But she's chilly as a Tastee Freeze
Ease it over, son
I'll show you how she runs
Screamin' like a demon
When the quarter mile comes
Crankcase cookin', that's her manifold destiny
Now she might run cold for you
She runs hot for me.
She runs hot for me
She runs hot for me
She runs hot for me
Now she might run cold for you
She runs hot for me
She's got a fire in her veins
That's high octane
When her heart starts pumpin'
Her cylinders are jumpin'
Then I give it to her slow
And she gives me back the low ET's
Burnin' down the line
Ten seconds time
Half an hour later
I can still accelerate her 'till we're out of Hardin County
And in another Galaxy---
Now she might run cold for you
She runs hot for me
She runs hot for me
She runs hot for me
She runs hot for me
Now she might run cold for you
She runs hot for me

Good morning, Army Bro! We're under a heavy deadline at work - may be getting overtime this weekend.



Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[Night Hides Not]

This one's off the beaten path, but it's a great song and brings back really great memories:

Oh Yeah (On the Radio) by Roxy Music:

Last verse:
It's some time since we said goodbye
And now we lead our separate lives
But where am I where can I go?
Driving alone to a movie show
So I turn to the sounds in my car

I was a bachelor then, stationed in Germany. I was driving my dream car, a Volvo 242GT, with a Bose sound system. Although stationed at Spangdahlem AB, I had several good friends up near Kiel, thanks to a TDY assignment. On long weekends, I'd make the 400 mile drive (in 5 hours), "driving alone" on the autobahn at 100 mph while "turning to the sounds in my car".

Good morning, Pro ((HUGS))

The week seemed to go by fast to me cause it’s been busy and I feel like I haven’t had enough time to get it done. I think I’m going to work through lunch to catch up.

I see daffodils in my neighbor’s yard - not fully opened yet. The trees (crabapple I think) outside my window here at work are popping open. Little birdies are sucking the blossoms - they look like a human sucking honeysuckle. LOL

I published a romance, called Hooked. I write women’s fiction. Character driven with some humor. I have one story in the works about 4 elderly crime solvers (so to speak) who are witches. But right now I’m working on my very first story - re-writing cause I’ve learned a thing or two since 2008 LOL - another romance. Thanks for asking.

Hope your weekend is wonderfully wonderlicious!

I bet that was awesome! I heard the autobahn has no speed limit signs.
Thank you for your service.

Kathy Mattea ~ 455 Rocket

There is a great version of "455 Rocket" by Francine Reed.

Can't find it on YouTube but if you ever see it, give it a listen.
