Waking light, it grew from the shadow Brace yourself to the morning low Night is gone, long way turning You've waited long enough to know When the memory leaves you Somewhere you can't make it home When the morning comes to meet you Lay me down in waking light

Now, the mist across the window hides the lines But nothing hides the color of the lights that shine Electricity so fine Look and dry your eyes We are tired of all the darkness in our lives With no more angry words to say can come alive Get into a car and drive to the other side Into the night, into the light We are young but getting old before our time We'll leave the TV and the radio behind Don't you wonder what we'll find Steppin' out tonight?

These times are so uncertain There's a yearning undefined People filled with rage We all need a little tenderness How can love survive in such a graceless age? Ah, the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness They're the very things we kill, I guess Oh, pride and competition Cannot fill these empty arms And the work I put between us, you know it doesn't keep me warm

How long have I been sleeping? How long have I been drifting alone through the night? How long have I been running for that morning flight? Through the whispered promises and the changing light Of the bed where we both lie Late for the sky

Stars shining bright above you Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you" Birds singing in the sycamore tree Dream a little dream of me Say "nighty-night" and kiss me Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me While I'm alone and blue as can be Dream a little dream of me

Sunday Night Football: Saturday in Jerry World
cwater10 replied to Beck Water's topic in The Stadium Wall
The red stripe is a throwback to 1976 when the Cowboys wore the red stripe for the entire season as celebration of America's bicentennial. They have worn the red stripe twice in the years since. Once last year and again last night. -

Social Security took care of this lad We watch in reverence, as Narcissus is turned to a flower A flower? If you go down to Willow Farm To look for butterflies, flutterbyes, gutterflies Open your eyes, it's full of surprise Everyone lies like the fox on the rocks And the musical box Oh, there's Mum and Dad, and good and bad And everyone's happy to be here

Now the time that is gone Doesn't matter to anyone When the country lanes are decked With the time yet to come Well the world is exhausted And the wreckage is all around But the arc of your life Could still be profound

RIP John. Thanks for the memories.

I see skies of blue And clouds of white The bright blessed day The dark sacred night And I think to myself What a wonderful world The colors of the rainbow So pretty in the sky Are also on the faces Of people going by I see friends shaking hands Saying, “How do you do?” They’re really saying “I love you”

Terrell Owens knocks out man at CVS; claims self-defense
cwater10 replied to chongli's topic in The Stadium Wall
This time you are mischaracterizing your own words. Let's look at your words and ask yourself if I am really making your point for you, or simply holding up a mirror that you may want to take a look at. In the post I responded to you said: "I don't punch homeless guys on the street when they yell nonsense at me. Clearly this guy had some mental problems. It was necessary to confront a much smaller crazy person and then punch him? And that makes him a hero? You guys have an interesting view on reality. "But he disrespected me." Oh no, how will you be able to go on living the rest of your life knowing a crazy insignificant person called you a name?" You have moved the goalpost my friend. Your original words sound an awful like like you are equating TO's actions to yelling at random crazy homeless guy. Your words sounds like someone that had decided that he knows exactly what happened. You sound certain of the man's mental illness. You expressed clarity in your belief that the man who was threatening others was just a "crazy insignificant person" that called TO a name. And you assert in that original post that the only thing that should be of concern to TO is that a crazy person disrespected him. He should, in your opinion have no issue moving on with his life with that knowledge. Sorry, it was way more complex than that and your original words do not meet the litmus test of someone who believes "Exactly, we don't know". Sorry KDIGGS, you make a lot of great points and express a number of excellent insights on this sight. This is not one those. -

cwater10 replied to chongli's topic in The Stadium Wall
I agree with you that there is much here we don't know. High on that list is "The Right Thing To Do". I don't know that answer and neither do you. We can have opinion, but we can't just inject made up facts. You have made mental health an issue in this story. What is that based on? It is not mentioned anywhere in the story that I can see. Perhaps I missed it. But sure, the man that was threatening others may have been mentally ill. Also possible is that the parties that TO was protecting were mentally ill. And yes, in a perfect world, everyone walks away and goes home for a nice night with the family. I agree that would have been the idyllic scenario. And yes the man could have been seriously hurt by TO. Maybe further violence escalates. The opposite unknown is what happens if TO does not step in as he did, in a peacekeeping effort, trying to get everyone to just go on their way? Should have he have just looked away and leave the other harassed party to be beaten into submission by the aggressor who was waiting outside the store to pursue just that? What if that victim had been seriously injured or killed? All I am saying is to be careful with a rush to judgement about what actually occurred and who should have done what. You initially characterized TO's actions as if he took exception to and picked a fight with the crazy homeless panhandler on the freeway exit ramp who spends his days yelling at people who drive away with closed windows and locked doors. This is not that. And that is all that I am pointing out. This was a peacekeeping effort gone south. We don't live in a perfect world populated by perfect people. TO is far from perfect as he has demonstrated over and over in his life. But I can't in good faith say that he did anything here that I have an issue with. I wish that we lived in a world where he could have walked away knowing that everything would be cool in his wake. I think he was very aware that was not the case and took steps to address that. But again... that is just my opinion. I don't pretend to know "The Right Thing". Even if it sounds like it 😄. Cheers! -

Maybe subjective, but I am going with the man threatening other patrons as the bully. -

cwater10 replied to chongli's topic in The Stadium Wall
Not for nothing... But your portrayal of events is not at all what occurred. The guy he knocked out was threatening other patrons inside the store. TO stepped in with an attempt at playing peacemaker (some would legitimately call that heroic) and the guy persisted and then started to swing at TO. Sure TO could have walked away and just said "not my problem". I have no issue with his actions, regardless of motive. It started by taking a stand against a bully. I admire that. -
I used to know this old scarecrow He was my song My joy and sorrow Cast alone between the furrows Of a field No longer sown by anyone I held a dandelion That said the time had come To leave upon the wind Not to return When summer burned the earth again

One child grows up to be Somebody that just loves to learn And another child grows up to be Somebody you'd just love to burn Mom loves the both of them You see, it's in the blood Both kids are good to mom Blood's thicker than the mud It's a family affair It's a family affair It's a family affair It's a family affair Over there, over there
