WILD-EYED BUSHY-TAILED TEENAGER

 WEDNESDAY NIGHT'S SUNSET IN BAYFIELD

A poor night's sleep led to a low motivation day.  However, despite that, and with Lorraine's help under cool sunny skies, we were able to get all the windows cleaned on the north side of the house today.  Only windows left to do now are the sunroom.  Also decided it was well past time to get rid of a lot of the old, worn-out lawn furniture and garden ornaments that have been here for years.  Some stuff will go into the firepit, some into the garbage, and some to St. Vincent de Paul in Goderich.  Sorry, I don't have much more to say folks.  Hopefully, tomorrow I will feel like a wild-eyed bushy-tailed teenager again:))

Al's Music Box:)) Ebony Eyes is a song written by John D. Loudermilk, recorded in 1961 by The Everly Brothers, and released as a single together with "Walk Right Back", which reached No. 8 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. The lyrics tell a young man's tragic story of losing his beloved fiancée in an airplane crash in dark, stormy weather conditions, which remind him of his fiancée's "ebony eyes".  The single, a double A-side in the UK, reached No.1 in the UK Singles Chart on 2 March 1961 for 3 weeks and was the ninth best-selling single of the calendar year 1961 in the U.K.  "Ebony Eyes" was initially banned by the BBC from airplay in the U.K. as its lyrics were considered too upsetting to play on the radio.

Groaner's Corner:(( An elderly pastor was searching his closet for his collar before church one Sunday morning. In the back of the closet, he found a small box containing three eggs and 100 $1 bills.  He called his wife into the closet to ask her about the box and its contents. Embarrassed, she admitted having hidden the box there for their entire 30 years of marriage. Disappointed and hurt, the pastor asked her, "Why?" The wife replied that she hadn't wanted to hurt his feelings. He asked her how the box could have hurt his feelings. She said that every time during their marriage that he had delivered a poor sermon, she had placed an egg in the box.  The pastor felt that three poor sermons in 30 years was certainly nothing to feel bad about, so he asked her what the $100 was for.  She replied, "Each time I got a dozen eggs, I sold them to the neighbors for $1."
