If Sinatra is not your cup of tea,
I hope you like song RMMC.

Hey that rhymes.

Blue moon,
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own.

Blue moon,
You knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Somebody I really could care for.

And then there suddenly appeared before me,
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper, "Please adore me."
And when I looked,
The moon turned to gold

Blue moon,
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own.

Sung by: Billy Holiday
Written by: Richard Rogers / Lorenz Hart

Hope that make up for Sinatra

A police officer sees a man driving around with a pickup truck full of penguins.

He pulls the guy over and says, "You can't drive around with penguins in this town! Take them to the zoo immediately."

The guy says okay, and drives away.

The next day, the officer sees the guy still driving around with the truck full of penguins -- and they're all wearing sunglasses.

He pulls the guy over and demands, "I thought I told you to take these penguins to the zoo yesterday?"

The guy replies, "I did. Today I'm taking them to the beach!"

Thanks, Traveler! Much better.

And here's something for the lighter side of life:

♪We're off on the road to Morocco
This camel is tough on the spine (hit me with a band-aid, Dad)
Where they're goin', why we're goin', how can we be sure
I'll lay you eight to five that we'll meet Dorothy Lamour (yeah, get in line)

Off on the road to Morocco
Hang on till the end of the line (I like your jockey. Quiet)
I hear this country's where they do the dance of the seven veils
We'd tell you more (uh-ah) but we would have the censor on our tails (good boy)

We certainly do get around
Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound

We're off on the road to Morocco
Well look out, well clear the way, 'cause here we come
Stand by for a concussion
The men eat fire, sleep on nails and saw their wives in half
It seems to me there should be easier ways to get a laugh
(shall I slip on my big shoes?)

Off on the road to Morocco
Hooray! Well blow a horn, everybody duck
Yeah. it's a green light, come on boys

We may run into vilains but we're not afraid to roam
Because we read the story and we end up safe at home (yeah)
Certainly do get around
Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound

We certainly do get around
Like a complete set of Shakespeare that you get
in the corner drugstore for a dollar ninety-eight
We're Morocco bound

Or, like a volume of Omar Khayyam that you buy in the
department store at Christmas time for your cousin Julia
We're Morocco bound

No argument here.

♪ Thanks for the memory:
Of things I can't forget, journeys on a jet,
Our wond'rous week in Martinique and Vegas and roulette.
How lucky I was.

And thanks for the memory:
Of summers by the sea, dawn in Waikiki.
We had a pad in London but we didn't stop for tea;
How cozy it was.

Now since our breakup I wake up
Alone on a gray morning-after.
I long for the sound of your laughter,
And then I see the laugh's on me.

But, thanks for the memory:
Of every touch a thrill. I've been through the mill.
I've lived a lot and learned a lot, you loved me not and still;
I miss you so much.

Thanks for the memory:
Of how we used to jog even in a fog,
That barbecue in Malibu, away from all the smog -
How rainy it was.

Thanks for the memory:
Of letters I destroyed, books that we enjoyed,
Tonight the way things look, I need a book by Sigmund Freud -
How brainy he was.

Gone are those evenings on Broadway.
Together we'd go to a great show.
But now I begin with the Late Show,
And wish that you were watching, too.

I know it's a fallacy:
That grown men never cry, baby, that's a lie.
We had our bed of roses, but forgot that roses die.

Hello 6ixstringJack:

You just took me by surprize. Never thought any would not know Bob Hope. Just google him if you would learn about him. One of the nicest guys around.

Besides being a great comedian he visited our soldiers in every war from World War II through Desert Storm. He tried to reach ever soldier he could to put on a show for them to give them a taste of home and let them know the people back home had not forgotten them. This was a major effort during WWII because we were spread out all over the map. So he clocked a lot of miles with several other people who volunteered there time to entertain our troops.

That is probably the main thing he is famous for. But he also made several movies that are well known.

You may find some you like. They all mainly comedies. His most famous are films with Bing Crosby about a couple of hucksters trying to make it big from Bali to Utopia.

Thank you for your response. I was just kidding. I know who Bob hope is, although I'm probably the last generation who will know of him aside from theatre buffs and people who regularly watch Buster Keaton make potatos dance with forks.

I really don't know much about him myself, but I was vaguly aware of his war efforts, as I always associated him with the USO comedy shows. Sounds like a great guy. My grandparents always talked about him...

I'm starting to watch some older flicks and I find some of them quite enjoyable. I really liked "12 Angry Men" and "From Here to Eternity" and I really get a kick out of knowing that the way that media manipulates people's thoughts and emotions is not something that is exclusive to my generation and has probably been going on since the invention of the written word.

Got any good Bobby Hope flicks for me to take a gander at?

All of the 'Road" pics: Road to Rio, Road to Morocco, Road to Zanzabar, Road to Singapore, Road to Hong Kong & Road to Utopia. He also did a few good pics with Lucille Ball: Fancy Pants & Sorrowful Jones. Also The Paleface and Son of Paleface are hy-larious.

One I watch often is "The Lemon Drop Kid". A twobit con man who gets in over his head with a gangster. Bob uses every schtick in the book in this movie. But there are so many. "My Favorite Brunette" with Dorthy Lamour. Okay you don't know who Dorothy Lamour is.

Google her.
