"I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"

I have climbed highest mountain

I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I believed it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for...

After intensive investigation, concerning problems arising with my computer, it appears that Treasurenet is NOT the source of my computer problems.
Sorry for any mis-information.


Now, Please forgive me as I try out my new capo....on some old original tunes....

My Landlord just gave me a "RIDE" around the block in his Honda racing car.

Dang!

He had pulled his trailer into the driveway with an older MG on it.

I asked,

"What the hell?"

He said that it was a "kidnapped" car of a Friend of his that he and some Friends were going to restore for their Friend.

A guy who is in his 70's.

I said,

"Count me in!"

I will get my hands greasy deep into the motor, shine the chrome or do anything I can!

I certainly must go camping soon.

To preserve my sanity and positive outlook of the future,

I ALWAYS sleep well in the mountains...underneath the stars.....

Though I sleep light and always have a weapon close at hand....
Just in case of a bear or an insane human.....


Best,

Scott

I try to play my guitar but my left hand is swollen. Rheumatoid arthritis?

I got a mail offer today for an opportunity to be in a study of RA.

Could pay over $500!

Perhaps I will look into this.....

Scott


Reminds me of the time I had surgery on my left hand at the VA in Topeka, Kansas, due to a Military injury.....

Now, THERE'S a story!

Purple Heart?
Nah. I ain't looking for medals....I got enough already.....
The wound wasn't received "In battle."
Even though, it was a wound in performance of my duty.....

Being left-handed, I looked into disability.

All I got was laughter....
My left hand hurts every day and playing my guitar is painful/impossible.....

And who will laugh today?

Ask my Congressman. Or our President......

Cold War Vets fought for the respect and Freedom that you now enjoy.


"Comfortably Numb"

Hello,
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone at home?

Come on now
I hear you're feeling down
Well, I can ease your pain
And get you on your feet again

Relax
I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb

I have become comfortably numb

O.K.
Just a little pin prick
There'll be no more aaaaaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick

Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on, it's time to go.

There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone
I have become comfortably numb.

Ah! Dinner is thus righteous tonight!

Ramen? Nah.....Got the goods tonight, Dig?


A dinner soon in the mountains.....Certainly!
Come along!

You get the firewood, I'll cook.....How simple for a journey?

Last night's dreams included killing....

But, I lived....
What if I didn't live?
What if I was killed in my dream?

Would I be posting now?
See why I hate sleep?

Yeah, nobody has an answer...That's cool.

And now, It is time to sleep again.....

Hopefully, I'll soon enjoy a cup of coffee in my mountains.....

I'll just go camping by myself.
As usual.
Deep atop an unexplored mountain.....
Alone....
Again.

"That's the way, I like it. Uh huh..."


The Mountains,
Where I feel that I'm in control....while I sleep....

Bears beware!
A fist-fight awaits!

I love camping!

The song by SSgt. Sadler that my Mom always played on the record player that inspired my passion for serving...
From the '60's

OF course, "GI Joe's" were found under the Christmas tree,
And "extras" were had on my Birthday.......:icon_thumright:

And,

Being CQ,

I tried to think of a song...A Neil Diamond tune or two?

(As I tune up my box....)





Yeah,
Go full screen and enjoy both, my Friends!

Best,

Scott

Here's some lyrics...

"Sweet Caroline"

Where it began,
I can't begin to knowin'
But then I know it's growing strong

Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Who'd have believed you'd come along.

Hands, touchin' hands
Reachin' out, touchin' me, touchin' you

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
But now I...

...look at the night
And it don't seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two.

And when I hurt,
Hurtin' runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holding you?

Warm, touchin' warm
Reachin' out, touchin' me, touchin' you

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined,
To believe they never would
Oh, no, no

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
Sweet Caroline,
I believe they never could
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
Sweet Caroline...

Hey,,,... I just gave myself an idea for a song!!



 

Combine the two (above songs) and it makes my wife , yeh she is younger then me... think of this!!
You can't combine songs, and make it work! .. .. Yeh? ask this rich boy!! A patriot too....


 

And for no apparent reason... I think of this song... The lyrics, yeh...




Ah! Somehow I knew that you would make formation!

Here's Mark.

I'm tuned up, Brother!



Let's jam!

How 'bout a rich girl?



Yeah, I was once married to a "rich girl."

When it ended, I walked with the clothes on my back and burned the pile in the driveway.
After 5 years...

A Sheriff''s Deputy understood and didn't arrest me for arson.....

OH What a night!




He gave me 3 words of wisdom.

He said,
"Move forward, Scott."

And I have.
Always. Even today....

Moving on.......




Scott

A test of my memory....

Twas Jefferson County and Deputy Herrington.....

My memory lacks not!
After some 20 years ago!
Certainly, one would remember such details....
Dreams still? Yeah. Demons still? Yeah.....
Only one or two of many.....

"NO SLEEP, I NO CRY......"
