Another Day at the Office ANOTHER DAY AT THE OFFICE TWENTY DOLLAR BILLS As that Florida “Welcome” sign Two weeks on the road They call this road a turnpike Leaves me feeling twice my age It’s hostile combat zone But I know it won’t be long The state of Pennsylvania Before I’m right back on that stage Must own every orange cone Greasy truck-stop pizza And I’ll be singing my songs Leaves me feeling twice my age And it’s giving me thrills But everything’s forgotten And they’ll be singing along When I step out on that stage And throwing twenty dollar bills It’s the traveling little circus And I’m singing my songs That we’ve all been dreamin’ of And it’s giving me thrills It’s livin’ like a gypsy And they’re singing along It’s the life that I love And throwing twenty dollar bills And I’m singing my songs It’s the traveling little circus And they’re singing along That we’ve all been dreamin’ of Just livin’ like a gypsy A GOOD DAY AT WORK It’s the life that I love I wish I could get back the time that I spent We head to New York City Driving down to the shore And the road is full of holes Or the time that I wasted just thinking about How many gigs does one band need How to get back down there once more To break even on the tolls Now days whenever I need to escape Stuck in rush hour traffic To write some new songs for the band You can feel the burning rage I can spend hours just making up stuff But everything’s forgotten While sitting around in the sand When I step out on that stage I’m just a writer who plays the guitar And I’m singing my songs Always looking for something to say And it’s giving me thrills A day at the beach is a good day at work And they’re singing along When you’re lucky to live life this way Throwing twenty dollar bills It’s really been one incredible journey It’s the traveling little circus Searching my life for a song That we’ve all been dreamin’ of If you love wide open spaces and tropical places Just livin’ like a gypsy I’m happy to take you along It’s the life that I love I wish I could get back all of the time Heading down the parkway I sat in the seat of a plane Under grey and rainy sky When I spent lots of money and traveled the Is that bridge too low world Or is the bus too high To fish in the wind and the rain Now I just wake up and check out the tides When the final show is over And wait for the wind to get still We’re gonna make that engine whine I fish all the way to down Captiva Pass Nothing looks as pretty Have some lunch down at Barnacle Phil’s My head is really buzzing I’m just a writer who plays the guitar And I hope it’s gonna last Always looking for something to say Cause I’m feeling kind of lonely A day on the boat is a good day at work And the night is coming fast When you’re lucky to live life this way I don’t want to offend you It’s really been one incredible journey And I don’t want to assume Searching my life for a song But I’ve got this really good tequila in my room If you love wide open spaces and tropical places I’ve got this really good tequila in my room I’m happy to take you along She said this trip’s been tough to handle I never regret all the time that I spent So I need the whiskey strong Hanging out in a bar I’m here to see the wedding Singing about all the stuff that I’ve seen That I’ve dreaded for so long Has taken me pretty damned far Cause the bride is my best friend, These funky old joints sure have treated me well But I’ve always loved the groom Though some things are never the same I’ve got this really good tequila in my room I seldom get bounced and the drinks are all free And the owners know me by name My head is really buzzing And I hope it’s gonna last I’m just a writer who plays the guitar Cause I feeling kind of lonely Looking for something to say And the night is coming fast A day at the bar is a good day at work I don’t want to offend you When you’re lucky to live life this way And I don’t want to assume It’s really been one incredible journey But I’ve got this really good tequila in my room Searching my life for a song I’ve got this really good tequila in my room If you love wide open spaces and tropical places I’m happy to take you along I listened to her story A sky full of stars and old salty bars And we drank a little more I’m happy to take you along I thought I’d leave without her But I walked her to her door I’VE GOT THIS REALLY GOOD TEQUILA IN How many other men knew this story that I heard MY ROOM How many long nights got started with those words She took the red eye from the west coast Found her rental car My head is really buzzing Took her luggage to her hotel room And I hope it’s gonna last And headed right straight for the bar Cause I feeling kind of lonely She found a quiet table And the night is coming fast And took some time to think I don’t want to offend you That’s the way I found her And I don’t want to assume When she offered me the drink But I’ve got this really good tequila in my room I’ve got this really good tequila in my room She said I chase this silly dream Even though I say I don’t MAYAN TIKI BAR But I’ve come to realize I can’t have everything I want I was walking by the ruins in the jungles of Belize And today this foolish notion When I saw this little building by the wall Is coming to an end The tour guide was explaining but he ain’t fooling But tonight I could really use a friend me This ain’t no sacred temple after all And I never shoulda slammed it down The Mayans had a tiki bar and they partied every I never shoulda even said hello night And I never shoulda took that kiss I saw those funny pictures on the wall Cause I never woulda stayed out all night long They were dancin’ and a flirtin’ just sacrificing And I never woulda felt like this virgins I bet those crazy Mayans had a ball Some folks like to hang right in the middle Most folks like to stay just where they are They had that jungle rockin’ and a rollin all the But, me, I’m always pushing on the limits time And sometimes I think I go just a little too far A little six piece band down by the river bed Those tiki torches burning just lighting up the I’ve always had a wandering soul night And a very inquiring mind The Mayans had their very own Club Med Somethin’ down that open road Just calls me every time The Mayans had a tiki bar and they partied every Whenever I got restless night And felt the urge to roam I saw the funny pictures on the wall I’d wake up cold and thirsty They were dancin’ and a flirtin’ just sacrificing About a hundred miles from home virgins I bet those crazy Mayans had a ball Some folks like to hang right in the middle Most folks like to stay just where they are Party, oh slam those maize drinks down But, me, I like to see what’s down the highway Party, gonna pass that pipe around And sometimes I think I go just a little too far Party, make those happy Mayan sounds There’s a party in the jungle every night I never shoulda left the house last night I never shoulda went downtown Well they kept the good times rolling for about I never shoulda bought that Jose Gold 3000 years And I never shoulda slammed it down Till one day the crazy party got shut down I never shoulda even said hello There’s a lot of fancy theories but it’s very clear to And I never shoulda took that kiss me Cause I never woulda stayed out all night long Pre Columbian disco ran them out of town And I never woulda felt like this The Mayans had a tiki bar and they partied every Some folks like to hang right in the middle night Most folks like to stay just where they are I saw the funny pictures on the wall But, me, I’m always pushing on the limits They were dancin’ and a flirtin’ sacrificing virgins And sometimes I think I go just a little too far I bet those crazy Mayans had a ball They were movin’ and a mergin’ just sacrificing Some folks like to hang right in the middle virgins Most folks like to stay just where they are I bet those crazy Mayans had a ball But, me, I like to see what’s down the highway Had a ball, yeah And sometimes I think I go just a little too far Had a ball STORMS AND SUNSETS A LITTLE TOO FAR I’ve got a dollar in my pocket I never shoulda left the house last night And a warm breeze in the sails I never shoulda went downtown Nothing else that matters much I never shoulda bought that Jose Gold But hope that never fails I’m bound from here to somewhere The crowd’s is my friend And a few spots in between And they start singing along I’ve got a heading on my compass Buying me drinks To a place I’ve never seen And requesting my songs Nobody cares when I start singing it wrong Some times the days are stormy My working conditions are good And you fight to stay afloat You feel like a moving target It’s just another day at the office for me In such a tiny little boat Keeping the world safe from sonic debris And if you’re really lucky I get paid pretty well And your skill is true to form I’d probably do it for free You will come away believing Some people even call this a job You can weather every storm The dancing they do is still a mystery to me I’ve got a dollar in my pocket The strangest gyrations that you’ll ever see And a warm breeze in the sails They clap out of time Nothing else that matters much And they sing out of key But hope that never fails The entertainment is good I’m bound from here to somewhere And a few spots in between They have tequila for breakfast I’ve got a heading on my compass And tequila for lunch To a place I’ve never seen Tequila for dinner and tequila

  • Bubble Trouble?
    EMBARGOED: DO NOT RELEASE UNTIL WEDNESDAY, JUNE 19, 2002 AT 1:00 AM PST Bubble Trouble? Bubble Trouble? Your Home Has a P/E Ratio Too Edward E. Leamer Chauncey J. Medberry Professor of Management Director, UCLA Anderson Forecast UCLA Anderson Forecast Reporti June 2002 Synopsis: The downside risks to the US economy come mostly from consumer durables and housing, which powered through 2001 completely unaffected by the business recession. Although sales of homes and cars are not likely to be as strong in the next year as they have been in the previous year, the financial conditions that historically gave rise to the extreme housing downturns are not currently present. On the contrary, the financial conditions are about as favorable for housing as they have ever been. Absent interest rate increases by the Fed which would produce a flatter yield curve, higher mortgage rates, and weaker housing appreciation, the economy is likely to grow at the moderate rate of 2.5% - 3% for the rest of the year, though GDP growth could for a couple of quarters be stronger than that because lean inventories will require some significant investments to keep inventory/sales ratios from declining to unacceptable levels. Closer to home, the p/e ratio for L.A. housing is rising but is still 17% below it’s 1989 bubble peak. The Bay Area housing p/e, however, is 6% above the 1989 peak. The LA p/e is supported by the fundamentals: appreciation of rents at the rate of 7% per year, while the high Bay Area p/e is not: rents have stabilized.

  • Official Middle Kingdom Songbook" Is a Publication Ol the Middle Kingdom of the Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc
    Unto the Populace of the Known World come greetings from Siobhan Medhbh O'Roarke, Chronicler of the Middle in the first reign of their Majesties Eliahu and Elen. The book you now hold in your hands is, I must confess, a mystery to me. It was handed to me, wrapped in a plain brown wrapper, by a mysterious figure in purple. Opening said package, I discovered a manuscript, much travel- and tear-stained. The dedicatory page purported to have left the hands of Countess Valmai many years before, but when I contacted that noble lady, she denied any knowledge of it and vehemently refused to accept any e!a!Tle credit for such a manuscript.* Despite the mysterious origins of the book, it seemed to me to be of value. Not many days before, the Neos in my home barony had been complaining that "No-one ever sings the old songs any more. How can we learn them?" Thus, the discovery of the mysterious parcel seemed Provident, if not serendipitious. It was a book Whose Time Had Come. I set about getting it published. Master Reginald of the Horns, seeing my bewilderment, surrounded by pages of music tossed about in a random manner, graciously offered to rewrite the musical scores in a consistent and pleasing manner. I owe a great debt to him for this labor, for I am confident that the Book would not have appeared in print until Pennsic XX or even later had the task of transcribing the music been left to me. Thanks are also due to Mistress Greya Ankayrlyn, who took pity on the poor naked manuscript and created a cover for it.

  • Fleetwood Mac – En Musiksåpa IBLAND HAR DE VARIT HOPPLÖST UTE
    Ur arkivet – sommarläsning med Livets Goda.se: Fleetwood Mac – en musiksåpa IBLAND HAR DE VARIT HOPPLÖST UTE. Andra gånger har de närmast setts som galjonsfigurer för en våg – för bara några sedan var det den återuppståndna yachtrocken och band som Midlake och Fleet Foxes gjorde sitt bästa för att imitera deras sound. Men Fleetwood Mac musik är mer tidlös än så. Dess mer insmickrande material kan smälta in i de flesta sammanhang, medan de mer experimentella låtarna än i dag bär en avig galenskap som sticker ut som en sårig tumme från den antiseptiska mainstreampopen. Flera band har fått hits med egna Fleetwood Mac-tolkningar, bland annat två så väsensskilda grupper som Santana (Black Magic Woman) och Judas Priest (The Green Manalishi). I praktiken talar man om flera olika band när man diskuterar Fleetwood Mac. Eftersom de genomgått åtskilliga medlemsbyten så har ett flertal inkarnationer existerat. Bara rytmsektionen, trummor och bas, är gemensam för samtliga. Två huvudsakliga eror kan urskiljas. Under den ena var bandet bluesbaserat, brittiskt och med gitarristen, sångaren och låtskrivaren Peter Green som nyckelmedlem. Under den andra hade bandet tre frontfigurer och låtskrivare – Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham och Stevie Nicks. Det var denna sättning som gav världen hitspäckande mångmiljonsäljare som Rumours (1977) – som förblir ett av de tio mest sålda albumen någonsin – och Tango In The Night (1987). Fleetwood Macs enda konstanter är dock de två britter som gett bandet dess namn. Trumslagaren Mick Fleetwood och basisten John McVie. Och de är viktigare för soundet än man kan tro. BÖRJADE MED BLUES Originalsättningen av Fleetwood Mac uppstod när Fleetwood, Green och McVie lämnade John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers – där Green hade ersatt ingen mindre än Eric Clapton – för att starta eget.

ANTHOLIS: Well, it's a pleasure to welcome all of you here to Brookings today and to welcome our friends from Denmark for this discussion with Foreign Minister Lidegaard. I'm also happy to welcome Ambassador Peter Taksoe- Jensen in the front row. And we're talking about an issue as we were just talking before coming out that we at Brookings talk about all the time across the Institution. We just had a senior management meeting today and climate and energy issues have been an institution-wide priority since Strobe Talbott became President 12 years ago and I became Managing Director about 10 years ago. It's an issue that scholars from all five of our research programs work on, not just our Foreign Policy Program which is here today, but our Global Economy and Development, our Metro Program, our Governance Studies and Economic Studies Program. And in fact just yesterday we launched our newest Brookings blog which brings together scholars from all five of those programs on this, called Planet Policy.

  • Momma Drove Like a Man 1
    Momma Drove Like a Man 1. I sat sandy-kneed, knees to chest in that ‘89 Chevy pickup truck momma drove like a man, cup holders collecting more and more identical sea shells she picked up along the beaches we visited. I never knew why momma felt the need to take something from everywhere-- she called them mementos. It’s funny, but no matter how long or how far we drove, we always seemed to end up near a beach. Saltwater clung to my cheeks from another blowout and I felt her drive a little faster. I would always end up choking on my throat and momma always ended up mad. We pulled into a gas station off the highway, and as momma rolled down the window I smelled the stench of seaweed and salt in the empty air and realized we’d never escape the sea. These dismal gas stations were my beacon of hope, my only human contact besides momma, but since she was a paranoid, she didn’t usually let me leave the car. The lonely little people outside were my scenery. “I gotta pee.” Momma shut the door, craning her head through the window. “You better still be here when I get back. I won’t have you whorin’ around no more.” And with those kind words, she spun on her drugstore flip flop heels and clacked away. The salty air mixed with the sweat on my face, and the little scrapes I had gotten on my chin from slipping on slick summer asphalt made me feel like I was burning.

  • JB Project Songlist
    west coast music JB Project Please find attached the 'JB Project' song list for your review. SPECIAL DANCES: Please note that we will need to have your special dance requests, (i.e. First Dance, Father/Daughter Dance, etc) FOUR WEEKS prior to your event so that we can confirm that the band will be able to perform the song(s) and so that we have time to locate sheet music and audio. In cases where sheet music is not available or an arrangement for the full band is needed, this gives us time to properly prepare the music. The JB Project song list is divided into two categories: HIGH ROTATION SONGS & LOW ROTATION SONGS. Requests for LOW ROTATION SONGS (not performed regularly) need to be made FOUR WEEKS in advance to give the band time to review. Clients are not obligated to send in a list of general song requests. Many of our clients ask that the band just react to whatever their guests are responding to on the dance floor. Our clients that do provide us with song requests do so in varying degrees. Most clients give us a handful of songs they want played and avoided. If you desire the highest degree of control (allowing the band to only play within the margin of songs requested), we would ask for a minimum 80 requests. Feel free to call us at the office should you have any questions. - West Coast Music HIGH ROTATION SONGS Pop, Rock, R&B 24K Magic – Bruno Mars Better Together – Jack Johnson 1999 – Prince Billie Jean – Michael Jackson Africa – Toto Black or White – Michael Jackson Ain’t No Mountain – Marvin Gaye Blister In the Sun – Violent

  • Fanfare Magazine: Bates' the (R)Evolution of Steve Jobs
    JanFeb 2019 42.3.qxp_c 11/27/18 6:49 PM Page 201 SKY 1 Symphony in Three Movements • Jascha horenstein, cond; o natl de la rtf • pristine 535 1 2 (71:59) Live: 12/19/61, 5/4/53 The big news here is the nine-minute Sinfonia Partita by Marcel Mihalovici. That may seem an eccentric observation, but there are three justifications. First, while these performances of the Bartók and Stravinsky have been released before (although not in stereo, as here), this is apparently the first release of the Mihalovici. Second, the gripping performance captures Horenstein—to my ears, an un - even conductor—at his best. Third, and most important, it’s a magnificent work by a composer who has remained almost completely in the shadows. Mihalovici (1898 –1985) was born in Bucharest; but under the influence of Enescu, he spent much of his life in Paris (Viorel Cosma and Ruxandra Arzoiu, writing in Grove , describe him as a “French composer of Romanian origin”). During his long life he produced a hefty catalog of works, including numerous operas and ballets, ranging in inspiration from Euripides to Racine to Maupassant to Beckett. I think it’s fair to say, though, that his music hasn’t been widely embraced. The Fanfare Archive points to only four prior releases (one reviewed twice), all collections—and three of those five reviews don’t even mention him once past the headnote. Until now, the only piece by him that I can remember hearing is the delightful set of bagatelles included on Luiza Borac’s magnificent Inspirations and Dreams set (see Fanfare 41:3)—a low-key work that hardly prepares you for the grit of the Sinfonia Partita .
