	Hello Myrna, Yummy your baking sounds delicious, any particular reason you baked so much. Inquiring minds want to know LOL Yes it is a pity you do not live closer as it would be great to visit and enjoy a cup of coffee or two and chat. I remember the tune I think if was to their advert from years ago. I enjoyed the words they put to the tune.. Amanda Quote: Hi Evelyn, I have been as busy as a beaver today Made 21 apple dumplings, apple stew, baked bread. I Apple dumplings, they are good I had one awhile ago. Wish 20 of you could come have one, I could make coffee, tea or what ever you prefer. Roger and Luis have great voices. Love those accents. Got this in an email today, cute and funny. These two ladies work for British Airways and did this at a BA party in a hotel in England At first it appears that they are just miming - but they were genuinely singing!

	Hello Mike, I am not sure if I even responded to your Kind of the Road song, sometimes there has been many responses since the last time I read in here. This forum is 'jumping' and I like the many and varied topics we are talking about in here. Anyway getting back to your song, I was expecting you to have a more pronounced accent and I did not detect it, you have a soft accent and voice to what I was expecting, although I am not even sure if I have heard anyone from up north. The USA accents are quite diverse yet for all the different accents people outside of the States can always tell it is an American just from the same way people speak. Amanda Quote: Hi Mary Evelyn, I just came by to apologize. I had imagined that was what had happened. As Peter has pointed out, she will post two or three videos and if no one responds she will take them down. She has done that a few times on my two threads. I wish that people could realize that those that enter a thread will not respond to everyone. When I posted mine, "King Of The Road" by Roger Miller, I did so to contribute, not to gain recognition. I have learned however, that it does not show. I am still having problems with my computer and not everything takes the way I want them to. That does not mean that I am going to delete it. It gets confusing when someone puts something up and takes it down. It is like an interior designer who keeps changing the design. Perhaps someone liked the first design but by the fifth or sixth change, nobody cares anymore. What hurts the most is yes, I suggested that she bring some videos in, but I did not intend for her to insult you as a result of it. I love this thread and now I feel as though I stuck my nose in where it doesn't belong. This is where Forgiveness is very difficult, as by hurting you and possibly a lot of our friends, she has hurt me as well. There are many views to my two threads, but not a lot of responses. To respond to a thread, there must be something of interest to you for you to respond. As long as I continue to post subjects of interest I can expect a response, otherwise I cannot. In conclusion, try to forgive me if you can, if you cannot, I understand. To Karen, I ask that you insult me as much and as often as you would like, but please, please do not hurt my friends. GOD BLESS YOU and to Peter Shalom ~Mike~ (P.S. How big is the baby now?)

	Hi Mary Evelyn, Thank you. I was the youngest of ten children. My sister Irma had told me once that there were supposed to be thirteen, but my mother had three miscarriages. She wouldn't tell me if I was one of them however. Irma was the youngest to me being six years older than I. I was always pushed aside, not able to do things with them because I was just in the way. I always felt like an only unwanted child. I loved my parents and my brothers and sisters but could never understand why they didn't want me around. I did not want to be better than them. I didn't even want to be as good as them. The only thing that I wanted was to belong. Therefore, I went through life with the attitude that if someone liked me, it made me feel good, but if someone did not like me, that was alright also. None of us can always have our own way, so we just have to make the best of what we do have. Now, for a more pleasant subject. It turns out that the person that our friend Karen Rechtzigel introduced to us had a big part in the Star Search T.V. Show with Ed McMahn. When I told him that Shirley and I had put together about four Showcase Your Talent Shows in the Indianapolis area he laughed and said, "Your not finished yet. I am going to send you all the materials." Not sure quite what he meant by that. Along the same lines I received a call this evening from a young mad who lives in Indianapolis. He sings R&B and wants us to promote him. When I told him what we charged he said "No problem." When we were discussing putting together an AdlandPro Community help line, several people suggested Craig's List and Free cycle. Although I still want to put the community one together, there is an item that I have wanted. You see, Shirley's birthday is January 24th and as she is not able to sit at the computer for any length of time, I have been wanting to get her a Laptop so that she can still be online in comfort. I put an ad on Craigslist but listed it in the wrong category and it got flagged. Therefore, I put the same wanted ad on Freecycle saying that I will walk to wherever it is to get it. I received a response this evening. The person said that he got a new Laptop for Christmas and is willing to give us his old one that is in real good condition and as soon as I got back in touch with him with directions he will bring it over. So, even though things are a bit rough it looks like some things are starting to to turn around for the better. Believe in yourself, believe in forgiveness, and believe in GOD and your whole life will be much better. GOD BLESS YOU ~Mike~

	Quote: Hi Mike, I saw your post in the forum history (yesterday?) about "King of the Road" but I didn't stop to listen to it, even though it's one of my favorite songs, I really like the versions by Roger Miller AND The Proclaimers (the bain of Roger MacDivitt's existence...LOL! He can't stand The Proclaimers' Scottish accent!) I should try to make an effort to listen to more ALP members who do Singsnap. Hi Kathleen, As it is one of your favorite songs, it is probably best that you didn't listen to it. I'm not sure how many people from AdlandPro Community are on SingSnap, but those that are, for the most part, are quite talented. I am not one of those. The reason that I know good talent when I hear it is because I know what is not when I hear me. I sing mainly for enjoyment. Now, for the version that you brought it, I quite fancy that as well, which presents a bit of a Sticky Wickett, you see, because you say that Sir Roger does not fancy their Accent. Blimey, what shall I do about that? GOD BLESS YOU ~Mike~

GOD BLESS YOU and to Peter Shalom ~Mike~ (P.S. How big is the baby now?) Hi Amanda, Thank you. I have never tried to be overbearing and as for the accent, I try to pronounce my words in a way that most people can understand me. There are a lot of people that tell me that I have a thick New England accent, however if I am talking with someone from Massachusetts I have trouble understanding them. I lived in Texas for five years and when I went back home to Massachusetts I really had problems. When I'd meet a friend that I had not seen in awhile and they would say, "Hey Mike. Where ya been? Ain't seen ya in awhile." I would say. "Howdy. Ya'll haven't seen me in awhile cause ah reckon ah been in Texas for farve years. How ya'll been? They would look back at me and say, "Huh???" GOD BLESS YOU ~Mike~
