Saturday's Weather

[SadieKate]

Well, heck. With only half the fun, it doesn't seem worth doing.

[maillotpois]

Raindrops keep falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his
Bed, nothing seems to fit. These
Raindrops keep falling on my head
They keep fallin'

So I just did me some talkin' to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things
Done, sleep in' on the job, these
Raindrops keep falling on my head
They keep fallin'

But there's one thing I know, the blues they send to meet me
Won't defeat me, won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning
Red, crying's not for me, 'cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free, nothing's worryin' me.

[SadieKate]

Born free! As free as the wind blows!
As free as the grass grows . . . . .

Gotta love Burt.

EDIT: No - it wasn't Burt Bacharach - both songs were sung by Andy Williams - who I had a crush on when I was five!! Wow.

[jobob]

You guys are nutz.

Yes, I know, look who's talking

[maillotpois]

Your pants will be on the bridge at dawn.

I will not buy this record. It is scratched.

Hey - I just admitted to having a crush on Andy Williams. There's not much more I can keep from you guys.

[jobob]

You're a sweetheart. Nutz, but a sweetheart.

[melissam]

Sarah,

Gotta love Burt.

EDIT: No - it wasn't Burt Bacharach - both songs were sung by Andy Williams - who I had a crush on when I was five!! Wow.

Wha---? I think you should have stuck with your first answer. Burt & his bud Hal wrote the song, but it was sung by BJ Thomas. Dunno if Andy Williams ever sung it. Maybe in the shower...

EDIT: Ah, Google is my friend and should always be consulted before attempting to correct any esteemed member of the board. Andy did in fact record Raindrops. I'll be d@mned. Learn something new everyday. Sorry, MP.

Jo & Veronica,

I'm glad the voices of reason & sanity won out and you opted to stay dry & warm!

So Jobob and Veronica- WHAT DID YOU DO???????

It was kinda yucky in the morning, but I managed to get in a mere 16 miles in the afternoon- pretty warm, not too windy. I could even see Diablo clearly for the 1st time in a few days-saw snow on the north side earlier in the AM. This kicks up my mileage for the week to a big 71.9 miles!

Waiting , but not breathless, for a report......

...............................

I'm going to be a DNS for this brevet. I don't have a good enough reason to be miserable for 10 hours. I did that back in September.

Plus all the reports on the news are kind of freaking me out, creeks over in Marin flooding, cops suggesting people evacuate in San Anselmo...

Watch it turn out to not be so bad. Hope so for Jo!

I decided not to go on the ride after all.

Thanks for all your well-wishes and words of encouragement, everyone !
