The Latest Random Ramblin'

Hey all. It is time for another edition of "Random Ramblin'." I have a few things to talk about this time around. Sit back and enjoy.

I went to MDA summer camp last week and had a pretty good time. The theme this year was "Camp Reality." Each day revolved around a popular reality show. For the most part, it was targeted for the younger campers. The older campers such as myself really didn't get into it, we never do. The whole point of camp for us older campers is to go and hang out with friends for a week. There is nothing really special about camp that needs mentioned. I did come home early though. I was supposed to come home Saturday morning but ended coming home Friday. Wed. night I started getting stomach aches that would last 30 seconds to a minute and a half. They would subside for about 10 to 15 minutes and start up again. I went all day Thursday with them, hoping they'd go away. That wasn't the case. Friday morning I woke up and felt no better so the decision was made for me to come home. That was the first time in 10 years that I had to come home early. I have one more year of camp left and then I will be too old to go. So next year, my best friend Roger and I will go out with a bang. Oh, speaking of Rog, he had his hair cut into a mohawk while at camp. Rog really pulls off the look.

The new season of "Rescue Me" premiered Tuesday night and is now underway. The show was good but wasn't as good as was hyped, in my opinion. I am not mad that it wasn't as good as hyped is because I know the purpose of the show was to set the tone for the rest of the season. From what I gathered from the first episode of the new season is that it is going to be a very interesting season to say the least. The life of Tommy Gavin is going to get more complicated before things get any easier or better. I cannot wait for a new episode come Tuesday.

So I have recently become a big fan of The Eagles. They had a concert special on NBC a few weeks ago that I watched. I really enjoyed the show as well as the music. I heard a few songs that I knew of their's and heard a few that I didn't realize were Eagles songs. During this concert they played a new song that was penned by band member Glenn Frey. The song is titled "No More Cloudy Days" and its just a beautiful song.

Here are the lyrics for those that are interested.

No More Cloudy Days
Written by Glenn Frey
Performed by Glenn Frey w/ The Eagles

Sitting by a foggy window
Staring at the pouring rain
Failing down like lonely tear drops
Memories of love and vain

These cloudy days make you want to cry
It breaks your heart when someone leaves and you don't know why

I can see that you've been hurting
Baby I've been lonely too
I've been out here lost and searching
Looking for a girl like you
Now I believe the sun is gonna shine
Don't you be afraid to love again
Put your hand in mine

Baby I would never make you cry
I would never make you blue
I would never let you down
I would never be untrue
I know a place where we can go, where true love always stays
There's no more stormy nights
No more cloudy days

I believe in second chances
I believe in angels too
I believe in new romances
Baby I believe in you
These cloudy days are coming to an end
And you don't have to be afraid to fall in love again

Baby I would never make you cry
I would never make you blue
I would never turn away
I would never be untrue
I know a place where we can go, where true love always stays
There's no more stormy nights
No more cloudy days

I just love this song and cannot get enough of it. It seems that I listen to it at LEAST 5 times a day. I highly recommend anyone to take a listen to this song. I think the message is a great one. I feel that this song kind of describes me.

Anyway, I think that is going to wrap it up this time around.

'Till next time.
