Send me my dollar!!!


1. Party Girl

I have a heart, a heart that's beating inside When I was three I thought the world revolved around me I was wrong And so I sing along
And if you dance, then dance with me

2. Zoo Station

Time is a train, With the future the past, Your standing in the station, Your face pressed up against the glass

3. Tryin' to Throw Your Arms Around the World

Sunrise like a nosebleed Your head hurts and you can't breathe You been tryin' to throw you arms around the world How far you gonna go

4. One

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head


5. Grace

And when she walks on the street
You can hear the strings
Grace finds goodness in everything

Blogging for Dollars

Is it just me or are we beginning to see a pattern develop here?
I look back to the 12/29/07 award winning and highly acclaimed entry: “ E=MC + poptart”, in which a Renoanian, known as Leopold, made the following statement:

“Therefore I applaud your efforts and will contribute toward your endeavors by pledging $2 toward a box of wine “

What is the value of a “pledge”? Nearly three months later, my (boxed) wine glass is half empty. I run to my mail box (like polvo in a ½ marathon) daily and find no envelope, money order, or check with a Reno return address on it.


Yesterday we are seduced with the following:

"the words are all lyrics from random U2 songs....a dollar goes to the person who can name them all.”

I spend hours researching the answer to this question, calling radio stations, visiting record stores, listening to 4 track cassettes, and contacting record companies. I take notes and compose the diligently researched answers while sipping my half glass of wine, and today, much to my dismay, I read:

“bravo! I didn’t say I would be the giver or relinquisher of said dollar.”

Apparently, Las Vegas isn’t the only town in Nevada where a righteous man can lose his hard-earned $3.00!!!

I am so depressed I wonder if I will be able to drag myself to the couch, eat my chicken wings, and watch the Bristol race today at 11:30 AM MST…………….
