New sig line explained
I recently realized (well, DUH) that I'm pretty much a
modern-day nomad. I've owned Billy Joel's "Piano Man"
album since, well, it was an album. I hadn't realized
the significance of this song till now. Hence the new
sig line:



When you look into my eyes
And you see the crazy gypsy in my soul
It always comes as a surprise
When I feel my withered roots begin to grow
Well, I never had a place that I could call my very own
But that's alright my love,
'Cause your my home

When you touch my weary head
And you tell me ev'rything will be alright
You say use my body for your bed
And my love will keep you warm throughout the night
Well, I'll never be a stranger
And I'll never be alone
Where ever we're together that's my home

Home can be the Pennsylvania Turnpike
Indiana early morning dew
High up in the hills of California
Home is just another word for you

If I traveled all my life
And I never get to stop and settle down
Long as I have you by my side
There's a roof above and good walls all around
You're my castle, you're my cabin and my instant pleasure dome
I need you in my house 'cause you're my home
:)

6. I was born in Atlanta.
Nothing beats the southern springtime. x( I miss it.

Dogwoods & Daffodils.
Azaleas & Camellias.
Ah
To be down south in the springtime is a little bit of heaven.



I planted a Magnolia out front a few years back. Its growing nicely. I'm sorry to say the Dogwood didn't fare as well.

9. I didn't know
Ya know, "Dixie" was written by a transplanted Southerner.

No racial slurs are in the lyrics.
