Not Southern though unless you are in Canada. :)
And not a sexagenarian.
I’ll be happy to spend the rest of my life in my suburb ... although we live on a through street.
And I wanted a cow.
Now I want a second cow.
And then I will stop.
After I get a pig.
Then maybe some ducks....
I wanted goats, but DP didn't want to move to Missouri and live in the 19th Century.
Our subdivision doesn't allow farm animals.
Actually, I have heard some of his work before he became famous. He has a good melodious voice. Nobody noticed his singing and lyrics until he started to chant his lyrics and became “Bob Dylan.” Janice Joplin had a great voice too, but didn’t make it big until she went “Janice Joplin.”.
My husband keeps talking about sheep and goats.
He is allergic to wool and I have had experience with goats. The guy who said "If you have no problems, get a goat" was not kidding.
Well, ducks are nice. One of my daughters volunteers at Waterfowl Rescue.
Ah to be rich and have a pneumatic supermodel around.

“Positively 4th Street is the greatest put-down song ever....”
Yes, and it’s the perfect song dedicated to the GOP from its voter base.
I've seen him do it with the Stone's "I Can't Get No Satisfaction" and with Donna Summer's "Hot Stuff".
Lookin' for some hot stuff, baby this evenin'
I need some hot stuff, baby tonight
I want some hot stuff, baby this evenin'
Gotta have some hot stuff
Gotta have some love tonight
I need hot stuff
I want some hot stuff
I need hot stuff
Clearly poetry for the ages.
Most people think the "hot stuff" lyrics are simple and shallow...but there really do have a deeper meaning.
The literal meaning of the words indicates somebody in search of material (stuff) of high temperature (perhaps burning coals to put in a furnace). Perhaps the singer is cold, and wants to warm their body.
But on a more profound level the "hot stuff" refers to erotic experiences with a partner whom the singer barely knows.
It's so deep! I mean mind blown! So amazing!
Very funny piece.... Worth reading for the part about Dave the plumber.
Idiot Wind...wonder what he *really* thinks of his ex-wife.
That said, I’ve been a fan for 50+ years.
Great artists are seldom stellar human beings.
I used to tap on their house and they would line up in a row and march out behind me to the field to browse.
Totally agree. The test of a poet of "the people" is that vast numbers of people within his culture can recite some part of his poems, even if they don't know the origin of the phrases. Certainly he meets that test.
So sweet! Funny to think of the English housewife, being all witty and unruffled about it, like a Python skit.
As an aside, I saw Dave Stewart and Annie Lennox when they first got started, at a tiny club in Philly, maybe '74. Amazing. I've been a Lennox fan ever since. Don't know how Dave dropped off my radar.
He is beyond 60.
He turned 75 in May.
Elen doesn’t like chickens or geese. She likes ducks.
I disagree. I don’t think he deserves a Nobel prize in Literature. I don’t think he’s the first winner who hasn’t deserved it. I think it won’t be long before a “graphic novelist” wins. Elen favors Gerard Way, the former frontman of the former emo band My Chemical Romance.
Geese are mean and chickens are stupid and mean.
Ducks are sweet. And you can make great baked good from their eggs and they are tasty when roasted. What more could you ask from a bird?
Ok, so they are not so good fried.
