Welcome to the Grand illusion
Come on in and see what's happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.

But don't be fooled by the radio
The TV or the magazines
They show you photographs
of how your life should be
But they're just someone else's fantasy



So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that it's a Grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same.
We're all the same...

So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that it's a Grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same.
We're all the same...

America spells competition,
join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motor car
Someday soon we'll stop
to ponder what on Earth's this spell we're under
We made the grade
and still we wonder who the hell we are





wake up people....

live according to your deep inner codes of ethics

based on love and righteousness


God, good upbringing & a healthy conscience

be yourself


you don't have to try to keep up

with the jones's or the smith's

or some actor or actress on tv


be yourself and let your inner light shine


cause anything else is phony...


remember ...



all that outside stimulus that seems so enticing ...



it's all just a big huge grand illusion



cause deep inside we are all the same





sincerely ....with lots of love , compassion ...


and great wisdom for this beautiful planet


yours truly




the Tigress of Righteousness

let us burn one
From end to end
And pass it over
To me my friend
Burn it long, we'll burn it slow
To light me up before i go

If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
Cause i'm gonna burn one down
Yes i'm gonna burn one down

My choice is what i choose to do
And if i'm causing no harm
It shouldn't bother you
Your choice is who you choose to be
And if your causin' no harm
Then you're alright with me

If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
Cause i'm gonna burn one down
Yes i'm gonna burn one down

Herb the gift from the earth
And what's from the earth
Is of the greatest worth
So before you knock it try it first
You'll see it's a blessing
And not a curse

If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
Cause i'm gonna burn one down
Yes i'm gonna burn one down

I couldn't have said that any better meself

I knew you'd agree , My Brother of the Magical Herb

No longer do the 420 but wanted to say hey.

Dust In The Wind

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind

Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind.
Oh________________


Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, all your money won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind, everything is dust in the wind (everything is dust in the wind)

Hey to you too, Dear Lady Of Beautiful New Hampshire



i love Steve Miller also & I just have to say


that i got to see him with his band

and also Country Joe and the Fish


on my 16 th Birthday at Fillmore East


with my First Boyfriend when i lived in New England




"Steve Miller was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on October 5,
1943. His mother was an accomplished singer, and his
father, Dr. George "Sonny" Miller, was a physician by
profession and an amateur recording engineer in his spare
time. Many members of Steve's family were musicians, and he
received his first guitar at age 4. Steve put it to good
use performing songs for his family and playmates.

Les Paul, the inventor of the electric guitar and
multi-track recording, and his wife, Mary Ford, were
regular visitors at the Miller house. In fact, Steve's
father was best man at their wedding. Les and Mary taught
Steve his first chords when he was five years old. Steve
still uses some of the techniques they taught him at that time. "

My grandpa, he's 95
And he keeps on dancin'
He's still alive

My grandma, she's 92
She loves to dance
And sing some, too

I don't know
But I've been told
If you keep on dancing
You'll never grow old

Come on darling
Put a pretty dress on
We're gonna go out tonight
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
All night long

I'm a hard working man
I'm a son of a gun
I've been working all week in the noon day sun
The wood's in the kitchen
And the cow's in the barn
I'm all cleaned up and my chores are all done
Take my hand, come along
Let's go out and have some fun

Come on darling put a pretty dress on
We're gonna go out tonight
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
All night long

Pick on

Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
All night long

Come on darling, don't look that way
Don't you know when you smile
I've got to say you're my honey pumpkin lover
You're my heart's delight
Don't you want to go out tonight
You're such a pretty lady
You're such a sweet girl
When you dance it brightens up my world
Come on darling put a pretty dress on
We're gonna go out tonight
And dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
All night long

Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze
Well it's all right, if you live the life you please
Well it's all right, doing the best you can
Well it's all right, as long as you lend a hand

You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring
Waiting for someone to tell you everything
Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring
Maybe a diamond ring

Well it's all right, even if they say you're wrong
Well it's all right, sometimes you gotta be strong
Well it's all right, As long as you got somewhere to lay
Well it's all right, everyday is Judgment Day

Maybe somewhere down the road aways
You'll think of me, wonder where I am these days
Maybe somewhere down the road when somebody plays
Purple haze

Well it's all right, even when push comes to shove
Well it's all right, if you got someone to love
Well it's all right, everything'll work out fine
Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line

Don't have to be ashamed of the car I drive
I'm glad to be here, happy to be alive
It don't matter if you're by my side
I'm satisfied

Well it's all right, even if you're old and gray
Well it's all right, you still got something to say
Well it's all right, remember to live and let live
Well it's all right, the best you can do is forgive

Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze
Well it's all right, if you live the life you please
Well it's all right, even if the sun don't shine
Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line

Been beat up and battered round
Been sent up, and Ive been shot down
Youre the best thing that Ive ever found
Handle me with care

Reputations changeable
Situations tolerable
Baby, youre adorable
Handle me with care

(chorus)
Im so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Wont you show me that you really care

(bridge)
Everybodys got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine, and dream on

Ive been fobbed off, and Ive been fooled
Ive been robbed and ridiculed
In day care centers and night schools
Handle me with care

Been stuck in airports, terrorized
Sent to meetings, hypnotized
Overexposed, commercialized
Hand me with care

(chorus)

(bridge)

Ive been uptight and made a mess
But Ill clean it up myself, I guess
Oh, the sweet smell of success
Handle me with care

I Want To Make The World Turn Around
I don't want to live in a world of darkness
I want to live in a world of light
I don't want to live in a world that's heartless
I want to live in a world of sight
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Living in a world of justice
Living in a world of shame
Living in a world of freedom
Living in a world of pain
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Turn the darkness into light
Turn the hunger into life
Turn the wrong into right
Put an end to the strife
Turn the blindness into sight
Save a human life
Make the world turn around

I want to live in a world of gladness
I want to know what your heart is made of
Don't want to live in a world of sadness
I want to live in a world of love
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Living in a world of justice
Living in a world of light
Living in a world of freedom
Living in a world of sight

I want to send a message
To every boy and girl
I want to send a message
About the world
We got to build it up
Stop tearing it down
We got to build it up
Make the world turn around

The traveling wilburys!!great stuff.

Oh My God.. ..Praise the Lord


I am soooooooooooo excited & so relieved


i have to shout it from the mountain tops


I finally heard back from My Beloved Deployed Soldier



He is fine

but very overworked


He was missing in action for three months !!!!!

but he is fine


and I'm so thankful I got to Hear from him

Greetings From sunny Northern California

coming at you from somewhere happily nestled in my dreams !!!


<<< someday it will be a reality some where beautiful & in the hills !!! >>>>



in the upper foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains
between /Lake Tahoe & the beautiful San Francisco Bay

e Let's try this again..



Greetings from Bright & Sunny Northern California



coming from a geographical location & altitude


which is < not quite > as high elevation wise


& it is not nearly as quiet or as rural


as i'd like & love my home to be...






but this Message comes with Love



& Good Cheer from Some One



who still has Wholesome Dreams & Lofty Aspirations



High Hopes & A High Altitude & Attitude of Heart




even though it seems so bleak at times





I hope to shine some light & love in my heart & upon all of you






but it is really hard to be positive or happy



when our Families & Friends in the Military



are working so hard & being subjected to such horrors & atrocities



& have to work such long hours & endure other extreme conditions overseas



soo please let's all pray & try to figure out a way



to bring our Troops Home Soon
