I Spy - Music

Photobucket
Many Thanks for stopping by and checking out this weeks photo meme, hosted by the ever lovely and talented Christy, with Her Mad Mind, and myself.   The hardest photo taking challenge on the World Wide Web.  NOT.....  We give you two prompts with one of them always YOUR CHOICE.  This week the other prompt is MUSIC.

I traveled back in time, ok, went through tons and tons of photo's that I have taken over the years, before there was ever a thing called the internet (I know, right).  Let me just mention, my photo taking skills have improved tremendously over time.  Which is lucky for you, since I'm not that great as it is.  But I slam myself at least have memories in pictures.  """"memories, like the corners of my mind......mystic water colored memories, of the way we were"""""""  (caught ya singing along, didn't I)
Lets get started, shall we
MUSIC

I've mentioned in the past that Mr. Dazee is an avid collector of all music.  Here is just a smidgen of what he has.

Some Albums.  I see that they are making a come back.  He has at least 4500 of these babies.

Eight Track and Cassettes.  He says he too many of these.  Between the 2 of them, he has approximately 600. 

45's.   According to him, there is about 8000 of these babies.

I couldn't find a picture of all his CD's.  There is appro.  3500 of them.  He has them all in alphabetical order.  Of course, they haven't made it out of the boxes on this move.  
He has all kinds of music, old country, jazz, new age, rock and roll, classical.  You name it, he probably has it.  From the 1940's to present.  We need to get him his own internet station.

Here is just some of the equipment he has.  He has tons more of that too.

MY CHOICE
Whilst going through old photo's, I came across a couple of them that just made me smile.  

This first one is of my own 3 kids.  They must have been cold, or this was the first fire of the season.  It was a wood burning fireplace.   I don't know, it just brings back memories.

This next one is from when we made a family trip to California in 2000.  Before it was a big pain in the butt to fly.  My sons cracked us up the whole trip.  It was so much fun.  We didn't take very many vacations, so this too made me smile. 

Ok, so much for the blast from the past.  Please link up.  It can be anything.  I promise.
I want to wish all of you in the U S of A, Happy Thanksgiving, and those of you abroad, Happy Thursday.  Next weeks prompt is one where you can post some pictures of your holiday.  See, none of you should have an excuse, unless your dog eats your camera.

The Answers To My Questions...

The other day I asked the people that I highlighted to answer some questions.  In all fairness to them, I am going to answer them, because, well, I know you have inquiring minds and want more blackmailing material,  more knowledge of who I really am.

So, without further ado

1.     How old were you when you got your first kiss?  Do you remember his/her name?
I was the ripe old age of 13.  His name was Rusty.  Nuff said.  I think back on it now, and ummm, yeah, yuk.

2.     What is a wild and crazy thing you did with a group of friends?
I know that we all have done the thing from Waynes World.  Maybe not the same song, but we did the flying down the street, radio volume up high, singing at the top of our lungs.
Not to mention that one time me and a bunch of friends went into a 7-11 and caused a ruckus.  No really, little ole sweet and innocent me did that.  

3.    Do you like Roller Coasters?  If so, what is the funnest one you have ever been on?
I love, love, love, love, love Roller Coasters.  If there was a dream job for me, it would be traveling around the world, riding and writing about them.  

This is called Wicked.  It is here in Utah at Lagoon.  So.....much......fun..
But I have to say one of my all time favorites is at Knotts Berry Farm.  It is called Boomerang.  First you go forward, then you go backward.  L.O.V.E.D.....I.T.....


4.      Christmas or Thanksgiving?  Why?
My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving.  Its just a time to get together, and eat yummy food. One tradition that my kids hate, but that I really like is we go around the table and say what we are thankful for.  It changes from year to year.  I also write an individual letter to Mr. Dazee, my kids, their spouses, and my grandkids.  That reminds me, I best be getting some writing on.

5.  Man or Woman?
This wasn't on my original question list but, omg, bring me the peroxide, hurry, pour it in my eyes.  
Supposedly a woman.  Yeah, I'd do him/her. 
 N.O.T.  

oh, and
You're Welcome

A Very Serious Post..........Snicker........Snort




You know.....It's kind of scary when my brain gets thinking.  At least, that's what my family tells me.  

When God or The Big Bang happened (covering both of sides here) and the earth and humans were created, I can tell there was a man involved.  Lets go over a few things that will happen when I wave my magic wand and create the best world EVER!!

Periods
One day total max.  No pain, maybe just push it out all at once like pooping.  Yeah, that's a great idea.  All in favor????

Done Having Babies.....No More Periods
There will be a special placed switch or button, or heck, brain control, that will tell your body, we are done procreating, I don't need you anymore.   

Women's Facial Hair
Won't be any.  Who in the hell came up with this idea?  Oh, right, a man.  I didn't have any facial hair until I started going through menopause.  (TMI all you men followers) There will be a proclamation throughout the inhabitants of the human species, no female facial hair.  There is no reason for this.  Unless as a woman, you like facial hair, then there will be pills made to help you.  

Flies, Spiders and All Creepy Crawlers Not Allowed In Houses
It will be in their DNA coding that if they happen to be born in a house, as in like dead bodies grow them, they will make a mass exodus to the outside.  It will be inbred in them, like the salmons heading back to their birth place.  

Messages on Foreheads
When ever you are talking to people, messages will show up on their foreheads.  Why you ask?   Because, they will lie to you, they will brown nose you, they will cheat you.  I think when they are talking to you, and are going to go tell, lets say your former boss, something like, she hates her job, all of the sudden the message will appear on their head, WILL TELL BOSS ANYTHING YOU SAY.  I think I might have finally figured out who the person was that tells the former boss everything.  So remember Dale asswipe, karma is a bitch, and I will be driving the bus.

If you have any great suggestions for my human race, let me know.

Ok, I must be off, I've got some people to go see.    mwaaaahaaaahaaaa

I Spy - Wish

Photobucket
Time once again for the ever popular I Spy with Christy's Mad Mind and my crazy one.  Every week we beg for people to follow along.  Some of you are very loyal and we love you for it.  It is such a fun way to show off the photo's that you take.  We are just asking you to show off what you take pictures of.  It is so easy.  Our rules are even easier.  We give you 2 whole prompts.  One of them is always the same, YOUR CHOICE.  The other one changes weekly with this weeks being WISH.  Don't boggle down your brain with "what the heck am I going to do".  Boggle it with, "this is going to be a great interpretation of the prompt".  
Are you ready to see my interpretations?  Well, hopefully you are, because, ummmm, you are here and stuff.  :)
WISH

My first and second photo's are my wish that I could design and decorate cakes like my daughter.  She sure didn't take this skill from me, because I never had it.  
Makes you want a piece of cake and for you milk lovers like me, a huge ole glass of milk on ice (well, maybe minus the ice if you are a wuss)

I wish that I could draw more than a bath.  My sister actually painted this on the wall where she works.  I love how she put the night light as the light on the lighthouse.  Yeah, I wish I had a talent.

MY CHOICE

Yesterday I caught this buck in my neighbors yard, using his antlers to dig the plant out of the snow.  I know, I'm usually complaining about them, but I was at least happy it was happening at their house and not ours.  

Ok, your turn.  Can't wait to see what you've got.
