I want to thank those who in a time of uncertainty expressed their unwavering support for my efforts.
As a precautionary measure, given the prolonged exposure to those bugs,I will be treating myself with this.I however will not take any chances and will be substituting expresso as the medium.You can't be too careful.
I will be away for the weekend and will check in from time to time.Have agreat weekend and I will be back on Monday.

Some may think of my post to be crass
Others just thought I had a bug up my ass
It certainly was not worded right
In fact, it did give Anna a fright
It was an exercise I thought I would ply
Just a social experiment I wanted to try
I am fairly cerebral ,not at all lazy
I know that some might think I'm crazy
I still do not think it at all inane
Or positive proof that I am insane
To save mankind I will stay on this pike
Until the time I handoff to MiKe
Hey,
Nice poem.
Btw Rob do you know how to post music files on a blog? I tried but the problem is I can't mange to upload some music files from my hard drive to a URL. This would allow me to make use of the html code that would post the music on my blog.
MiKe
No MiKe I'm a neophyte on this html stuff.I thought it was cool just to get the links up.Libby knows and I think Anna Banana might know too.Give them a shout.I'm about to leave to go to Connecticut for the weekend and if it's ok with the people I'm visiting I'll check-in.
Sorry MiKe
MiKe,
Partyboy will definitely know, as a matter of fact go to his site and check out that audio post he did.
Have a great weekend!
Mike--
Having never done it, I'm not sure how to. I DO know, however, that the code you use makes a difference in what kind of file you can use (some are mp3 specific, some only support wav files) so make sure you have the right one.
www.domaindlx.com has a huge amount of storage for free, but I'm not sure if they'll let you upload music files. They allow for everything else, though, so it might be possible.
I love the smell of coffee brewing in the pot
But where youre putting it may smell quite alot
And thats not what i like to smell in the morn
And believe everyone in my household i would warn
But my dear friend, your link was a gas
Not showing it to hubby; french roast up the ass?
So have a nice weekend and watch for brown streaks
I just cant control these tears on my cheeks
Gee, how rude but in fun its just fine
You know I'm grateful you poemed that blog of mine
TEHEHEHE: Buying some stock in Columbian!!! ;-)
I'm quite glad I was poemed.
It gives me something to do every day.
Reading posts on THE POEMSTER, yo.
Yo.
Yo yo.
Unfortunately I only post when I'm tired
and my thoughts are random
and I feel the need to write down every single fragmented one.
having fun today! Haloscan and my antique wont comment on each other, sorry paisley! (forgive me if i spell things wrong!) Annas poems wont open for me and Anna-Banana?, youre blog is too sophisticated apparently for my broken down components....would have loved to complete my cruise of the blogs listed but my "tubes" overheated and now my computer keeps flashing the sign, "It's not my fault!" But, i never give up; I will return! HMPHF for now only!
Well I'm still in Ct. will wait for traffic to die down and leave about 7:00.I have about a 3.5 hour ride ahead.Just wanted to spend a day at the beach that I went to as a kid,this time with my kids.I wish I remembered to bring my digital camera it really is beautiful.I may come down again on July 4 so I'll bring it then.It is on the Long Island Sound and from there you look across to see Long Island.
Rob
Just a little poem
To say I've reached home
Although the days expired
And I am really tired
I wanted to say goodnight
Before I turn out the light
I know you probably missed the Sunday Sermon but I really couldn't do it.So next week I will not let you down.Thanks.
Rob
mike, the audioposting is pretty easy, and if you want to upload songs through it, i haven't seen a rule stating that you can't. all it takes is to have as clear a line as possible, and some experimentation (everyone's favorite pasttime) to figure out the best place to stick the speaker and the phone.
other than that, i've found a midiplayer that's supported by another site, that you can stick different midi files into. that requires that they be held on a viable url though, so that won't do too much good.
most of the basic blog programming is pretty easy otherwise rob, and if you need a hand or anything, just let me know. this is nothing compared to the cobol and c++ crap i used to deal with at ibm when i couldn't avoid it.
cheers to you all...
I would be careful uploading anything if you don't hold the rights to it.Actually, I would steer clear of it altogether, it isn't worth it.
Computer savvy Peg here!(and dreams are free) When I clicked on Anna at rhapsody (sp right?) i slid into annabanana's site. little computer elves playing tricks on me? or are one and the same? Regardless, I just LOVE, 'HOLDING YOUR BREATH' the most...WOW! Great job!, Anna 1st or 2nd or one in one! ;-) Peg

I think I'm going to do some rap.

I got a (is it called a song?)a....a....song I'm working on now.I'll try to get it done today and post it later.I may get an earing,I got a bald head already(shaved head)a tatoo might be nice.Maybe I'll use one of my sons Yugi-OH tatoos to try it out.I'm practicing my hand and finger moves and sticking my head into the camera shots.So far so good.I think it will be a hit.
I know your song will rock
And then I will dance to THAT
I'm still dancing
It's just a little more subdued.
Poemsta_rap
(use any rap music music that will work,I can't think of any offhand)
I useta be a home boy
And den I was da poem boy
So it was boun to hapn
Dat I would be a rappin
Now I'm singin what I'm sayin
You know dat I ain't playin
Dey know dat dey can't top it
So no way I'm gonna stop it
I get started on a mission
To defeat the competition
Can't be sittin on no fence
Cause the heat be too intense
Dey be breathin down my back
So I'm givin rappin a crack
My fingers are all pointin
at me I am annointin
As the only poemsta_king
And the rappin that I bring
Wit my pants halfway down my ass
Like that stupid half full glass
My crotch I gotsta grope
An dis rappin be da dope
Da nex driveby I be doin
It's rappin I'll be spewin
You is not safe inside
Deys nowhere you can hide
From da king and all his trash
It be like an itchy rash
Don't make no sense to fight
Just come see me at my site
Poemsta
anna,
i'm working on one with trains and migrains,oh and another good name for a cat would be "dope" or a dog for that matter.i call my dog that sometimes.
Hey Rob,
I've just finished my exams. I was waiting for this moment with great anticipation, but now I'm just bored, I've got nothing else to do with my life until my summer job.
BTW one of my poems has been selected for publication, at http://www.voicesnet.com/Entry.htm . So that kinda cheered me up.
MiKe
I also gave up trying to post music on m blog, it sounds too complicated.
MiKe
All good news MiKe,
Except the boredom part.See what you can do to enjoy the time off.It's good having nothing you HAVE to do.Then you have time to do what you like to do.I can think of something that would be good,maybe you could go to esse's site and tell her about your poem.She wants to get published too.She needs advice.I'm going to check out the link now.
Congratulations MiKe!
That rap was awesome! I'm ROFL. LOL. Love it!! Do another, Rob. :)
Aw Libby,
Thanks so much for commenting on that and I'm happy you appreciated it.For that simple fact I will do another one.You made my whole afternoon much nicer.The first half was easy then I had some trouble but it was fun.I didn't think it was going to be so hard.I think I'm going to listen to a little rap so I can do it better.I can't imagine doing something for 3 or 4 minutes worth.
Rob
I saw this on the news and it struck me. Looks like we lost a great poet....
Mattie Stepanek, 13-year-old poet and advocate for muscular dystrophy patients, died in Washington on Tuesday of a rare form of the disease, a hospital statement said.
Stepanek began writing poetry at age 3 to cope with the death of a brother. In 2001, a small publisher issued a slim volume of his poems, called "Heartsongs." Within weeks, the book reached the top of the Times' best-seller list, the MDA said.He wrote four other books: "Journey Through Heartsongs," "Hope Through Heartsongs," "Celebrate Through Heartsongs" and "Loving Through Heartsongs." His poems brought him admirers including Oprah Winfrey and former President Carter and made him one of the best-selling poets in recent years.
Despite his condition, Stepanek was upbeat, saying he didn't fear death. His work was full of life, a quest for peace, hope and the inner voice he called a "heartsong."
"It's our inner beauty, our message, the songs in our hearts," he said in an interview with The Associated Press in November 2001. "My life mission is to spread peace to the world."

Prayer for a Journey
Thank You, God,
Not just for life,
But for our journey through life.
Life is a miracle,
And a journey through life
Is so full of so many more miracles
If we travel with our Heartsongs.
Thank You, God,
For blessing me with the
Gift of Heartsongs,
So that I can enjoy my miracles.

Future Reminiscing
It is good
To have a past
That is pleasant
To reflect upon.
Take care
To create
Such a gift
For your future.

How Mattie wants to be remembered: As a "Poet, Peacemaker, and Philosopher Who Played"
This is the first I have heard of this boy.I have been spending alot of time thinking about the past and how much I have done that I look back on and am thankful for and he comes up with a way to express it in a few lines.I am humbled and thankful and saddened.Thanks Nicman I'm really glad you saw that and posted it.I am going to find more on Mattie.I will never forget one so young and so brilliant.
