Lemme guess: Moon River? He wrote a lot of schlock. Actually, the songs in 10 were among his best, IMO. Different time, different audience, but I prefer most of Mark Knopfler's scoring over Henry Mancini's hands down.

We woke up at our compound, I call it a compound because we are in a gated lodge with peacocks, deer and an ostrich. It is very basic , but it was cheap and most importantly available for bookings. Everyone turned to me for answers after we had breakfast, “Where do we go now, the game is not until 4pm. I suggested Mandela Square, only because I had heard about the Sony Pavillion. We figured that was the place where the fans gather before heading out to the stadium so we gave it a shot. The Sony experience was pretty cool, the 3D Television displayed some boring underwater videos and then it got the crowd going with a highlight video from the opening ceremony and the first match between South Africa and Mexico. The Finale was the premiere of Shakira’s Waka Waka video in 3D. |
Hello, Box, from Kinzer, PA. Our tents are pitched in a field overlooking an Amish farm where, as night fell, the cornfield was practically SPARKLING with fireflies. Beautiful night.
We're all alive and well - 3 days in out of 10. Today I got some good practice driving a large pickup truck with trailer. It's not too bad as long as you watch your side mirrors like a hawk...except when it's time to back up or do multiple-point turns. Eeekkk. No disasters yet though. Thanks to all of you who are following the story on FB/twitter - the comments and replies are really nice. Tomorrow is one of the hardest days of riding; it contains a hill that I think I just about cried my way up last year. Hope it'll be a slightly less harrowing experience tomorrow. Think good endurance thoughts... Miss chatting with y'all - enjoy your pillows, air conditioning, and microwaves! |

Great riff, and great lyric: My Love is Like a Storybook Story.
Now I'm lonely. |
