Hi Evelyn & All,

I just posted this in one of my threads and thought to share it with you all here as well.

Shalom,

Peter


Hi All,

I found this at Atlas Shrugs in an open thread and listening to the song it brought caused me to smile. Frank Sinatra was one of my favorite singers and whenever I hear him I'm amazed at what a wonderful voice he had and that you can actually understand each and every word he sings. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Shalom,

Peter


I love this song -- a fitting tune for end-of-the-year pragmatists on the eve of New Year's Eve.

That's life
That's what all the people say
You're riding high in April
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I said that's life
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stomping on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine old world
It keeps spinning around
I've been a puppet, a pauper,
A pirate, a poet, A pawn and a king,
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself
Flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life I tell you, I can't deny it
I thought of quitting baby
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird
And then I'd fly
I've been a puppet, a pauper,
A pirate, a poet, A pawn and a king,
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself laying
Flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life
That's life, and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there nothing shaking coming this here July
I'm going to roll myself up in a big ball
And die...

Hello Evelyn,

Please forgive me for using your forum for this but it is important. Your new forum is great and well supported and everyone is so active here.

If you are offended please delete it.

My message facility has a glitch and I need to get this message out. I have told Bogdan and he will as usual sort it out.

Hi Peter, yes Frank will always be immortal with his music and funny you should mention how you could understand each word. I thought it was just me but more and more I notice most singers do not have that clear enunciation, whether singing or speaking. Here is another of his songs that is one of my favorites. I also posted this in your joke thread.

Hi Roger, no forgiveness is needed. I am honored you chose my thread to link to yours and no I will not delete it. I am enjoying this forum tremendously and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. I am keeping you and your family in my prayers and I can't remember if I told you or not, but I asked one of my friends, back in Tennessee, who is a member of a 600+ member prayer chain to add you and your family.

Hello friends, well another year has come and gone it seems as though they get shorter all the time, as do the days, weeks and months. I thought everyone might enjoy this article.

Happy New Year from Around the World!

For your New Year’s celebration, customs from other countries that are supposed to bring good fortune for the year..............
China—The color red is the Chinese symbol of good luck and happiness. Paint your front door with a new coat of red paint or hang a red banner.
France—Good health and good fortune will come to those who eat a stack of pancakes on New Year’s Day.
Norway—Prepare rice pudding and hide one whole almond in the bowl. Dish out the pudding to family and friends on New Year’s Day. The person who gets the almond is assured of major wealth.
Puerto Rico—At 12 midnight, children throw pails of water out of a window in the belief that doing so rids the home of evil spirits.
Spain—At 12 midnight, eat one grape with each toll of the clock, which will assure that you have good luck each month of the year.
Switzerland—On New Year’s Day, let a drop of cream land on the floor to make sure you have a rich New Year.
