I have waited for Love.
I can never marry as I promised my Creator I would stay single if HE got me out of a jam and kept my mother healthy.
What is my happiness?
I am happy if my mother is safe.
I am happy if my Heavenly Father rescues me from myself.
Aunt Alice had Alzheimer's. WE had taken her in back in 2007. She lived next door on the Dublin Ranch here in Mission, Texas. It was not safe to leave her alone in her house. She was at odds with her brother. Uncle Joe was a Vietnam War veteran. He had a bad temper. He had a drinking hobby. Diabetes was troubling him. His drinking was curtailed a bit.
Aunt Alice was a kind, compassionate, funny, wonderful soul.
WE greatly miss her. WE will say a rosary for her today.
I remember seeing a 1940s era black and white photograph of the Irish priests and their Mexican-American youth choir. It looked like a picture of a championship football team and its coaches.
The good Padres encouraged their parishioners to fight for their rights. To March against injustice and bigotry.
The Irish Generals offered a strategy of Unity, Faith, Love, Resistance and Song!
You were to sing in a strong voice not a loud one. Let your enemy know you do not fear them. You sing to GOD. How can fear and evil stand a chance?
The fight went through the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. Civil Rights and Farmworker strikes.
WE were taught to fight hard. Always fight for your rights and against racism.
My 92 year old mother lived through Segregation. Signs read No Dogs No Negroes No Mexicans.
4 houses down the Klu Klux Klan would meet to decide what to do with "Mexicans".
WE knew Donald Trump was a Racist Enemy to take seriously when he called Mexicans "rapists and drug dealers".
WE have endured 4 years of his bigotry and incompetence.
Look at how he has damaged America.
This November 3, 2020 WE voted against Trump in the presidential election.
Biden was declared the winner today!
OUR Irish generals would would be happy for US.
Father Gerry would say "Well Done, Troops!
The Power Was In OUR Hands All Along.
WE DEFEATED TRUMP!
It's all around.
You can feel it.
It has a bad scent.
The feel of it.
The dead vibe is in the air.
No need to be here.
Get out of there!
Be quick about it!
Eric was sexually abused by his mother when he was a child.
He suppressed those horrible memories. His behavior and self-esteem suffered.
He is still dealing with it.
Please seek help. It is there for you.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
Are THE BANGLES free for Asteroid Day November 2, 2020?
It is a Monday. A Manic Monday. It will also be Dia De Los Muertos!

President Donald Trump held a rally in Omaha, Nebraska the night of October 27, 2020. It was a cold evening. 1000s attended. Many had been busted in. The event was at Omaha's Eppley Airfield.
Trump put on his usual show of MAGAness. He loves to brag about how good of a president he is. He downplays the Coronavirus and tossed in some racism here and there. He's like an aging rockstar on his All-Hits Tour. A crowd pleaser that gets the audience to sing along.
Trump left. Obviously pleased. Nice and warm flying on Air Force One.
Down below hundreds of his loyal of supporters trembled in the freezing cold waiting for buses to ferry them to distant parking lots.
The Trump supporters were out in the cold for 3 hours. Freezing temperatures.
Some walked to buses 3 miles away.
A few months ago WE found a green frog toy at the local convenience store. I picked it up at the west side of the El Tigre store.
OUR Aunt Eduarda collected frogs. Toys & anything frog was her secret passion.
I had to pick it up!
Aunt Lali passed away in 2011.
WE miss her.
May she rest in peace.
A cold front came in as WE slept in the early morning darkness. It did not want to knock on the door to let US know it had arrived in OUR subtropical Rio Grande Valley Of South Texas.
It was 57 degrees Fahrenheit this morning. Cold enough for Mission Texas! A nice walk down the little Dublin Ranch.
Breakfast Boom featured music from Ireland's SODA BLONDE! The food was beans and potatoes with a cup of coffee.
The song for Breakfast Boom was "Swimming Through The Night"! It is a Tremendo Tune! Faye O'Rourke's voice is powerful, passionate and beautiful. It filled that cold kitchen with warmth. As WE turned towards the sink it seemed that Ms. O'Rourke was behind US singing! That's how Fenom her voice is!
The drums are Puro Wow! They serve as the first voice in the intro! Mucho Respeto for the drummer! The guitar and bass crush it! This is a Solid Band!
Got that, Radio?
WE hope to see SODA BLONDE on tour once the world vanquishes the Coronavirus Pandemic.
Experts say Texas is headed for another surge! OUR governor cares more about the economy than the people of Texas!

Father Barrett was an Irish priest at OUR Texas parish when WE were growing up. He was one of OUR heroes. His sermons were effective and inspiring.
He was a young priest when a pilot intentionally crashed his plane into the Virgen De San Juan Catholic Church in 1970.
There were 30 priests present. 200 school children were in the church cafeteria having lunch.
Only the pilot was killed.
Father Barrett passed away in 2014 at age 77.
WE fondly remember him.
The National Nightmare is almost over!
If WE can soundly defeat racist President Donald Trump!

The world is fighting the Coronavirus Pandemic. The death toll is rising.
Here in Texas WE are expecting another surge. WE are practicing social distancing and wearing face coverings. Some wear masks or bandanas.
WE are checking out music from home. Home is the Dublin Ranch in Mission, Texas. Thank goodness music is Alive And Well.
WE are listening to Ireland's SILVERBACKS. The song is "Up The Nurses" and WE like what WE hear! The vocals are spellbindingly smooth and beautiful. The music is en la marca aka on the mark. Bravos to the drummer! That beat is on target! The guitar kicks it into the net! The bass rams the atmosphere with authority and Booma!
By All Means Check Out SILVERBACKS!

Remember when Myspace was the cool spot on the Internet? Tom was Myspace Pal Yo all Myspacers!
WE made some fab friends on that website. The majority were cool and not judgemental.
Then one day Myspace was sold and many lost their content. Many could not and did not stay.
WE will be dusting off OUR Myspace suit to check out how the website is!
Ground Control is almost set!
Stay Tuned!
President Donald Trump attacked Vice-President Joe Biden with possible Russian inspired misinformation last night on the last presidential debate. Trump is a master of utilizing lies and conspiracy theories.
He is desperate since Biden leads in the polls.
Hopefully people will vote for America and against Trump.

Not Russians!
Biden For America!
Not Trump For Russia!

A lot of good people will vote for a bad man... AGAIN.
President Donald Trump is seeking re-election.
He kicked off his run for the White House in 2015 by calling Mexicans " drug dealers and rapusts". No one cared to organize nationwide protests against his bigotry. That gave him the keys to the White House.
President Trump has gone after Muslims, Asians, African-Americans, the LGBTQ Community, Central Anerican asylum seekers, military veterans, the press and anyone that dares to oppose him.
He has mishandled the Coronavirus Pabdemic. He uses racism, fear, lies and division as weapons. His base responds well to that.
OUR neighbors next door are white retirees. They are decent folks. They have 2 son-in-laws. One is African-American and the other is Mexican-American.
How can they vote for Trump?
They fell for his feel good slogan and tactics.
Trump is not a good man. His actions and words reveal his true nature. He could not even condemn white supremacy! White Supremacists saw that as him supporting them.
You will burn your feet if you dance with the devil.

Dictators fear a man and his acoustic guitar more than an enemy army!
Totalitarian rulers jail and kill poets.
Music brings forth truth and strongmen that are foes of freedom and democracy fear it!
Why?
Truth will set you free!
EMMETT MCGRATH has an acoustic guitar and he lets Truth roll out on "Wall Dogs"! Plus a Mad Harmonica! The music sounds like a train coming down the tracks. It sure as fire is not a MAGA train!
It is the TRUTH TRAIN! "Wall Dogs" is
beautifully written. It is almost like Mr. McGrath looked into the future and wrote about it! "See the people fill the streets" Whoa! So many great lines! Excellent songwriting!
Bravo!

He just watches people die!
He has a deep hate for Mexicans and any color that's dark!

Let your slingshots bring down Goliathic Trump!

The music was fresh and new. It was hungry and real. Top bad both stations went under.
Now WE roam the Internet searching for Irish bands and artists. The name of the blog is Irlanda Linda...Beautiful Ireland and WE live on the Dublin Ranch in Mission, Texas.
So let US talk about N O.A.H. which is a new Irish band.
WE let OUR ears feast on "Shine" and it lit up OUR mind! The songwriting is strong. The vocals are bright, powerful and passionate! The music is En La Marca aka On The Mark! The guitar talks the music. Drums are dangerous which is cool. The bass is booms. Farvelous Tune!
WE wish the band Massive Success!

Melbourne, Australia's HANNAH ACFIELD is an Artista Magnifica! Her voice happys through with a smooth honey vibe. Her music gets your heart beating and your feet tapping. It has a strength that can carry you forward. WE know. WE know and once you listen to "This One Knows" you will be sufficiently aware!
Check out "Unlearn You". It marches in with a sweet vulnerability that your senses fall in love with. WE had a second go at this tune! That's how good it is!
Make like Columbus and discover this wonderful Australiana singer-songwriter!
President Donald Trump is a master of lies and a disciple of racism. He kicked off his campaign for the presidency by calling Mexicans rapists and drug dealers. No one cared to organize nationwide street protests. That action would have stopped the thin skinned bigot. It was inaction that enabled him.
America found out Trump did not just come for the Mexicans. He went after Muslims, Central American asylum seekers, African-Americans, LGBTQ and anyone who dared oppose and criticize him.
It is time to Restore America's Soul.
America has always been admired for standing for compassion, freedom, democracy and morality. WE have always opposed tyrants, fascism and communism.
Trump likes tyrants. WE have strayed from American Values.
Mike Bloomberg can get our country back on track.
Vote Bloomberg. Vote To Restore America's Soul.
It seems burger joints are ready for Lent!

Dad used to talk fondly of working with Greek immigrants in Bridgeport, Nebraska in the 1940s. He said Nebraska was wonderful and had plenty to offer.
So WE are checking out the music of Nebraska's SAMUEL SCOTT MCCUMBER.
"Side Door" is the song that let US into his musica. His sobgwriting is excellent as his sound. The vocals deliver genuine tones. Do WE detect a hint of funk in the musical DNA? Excelente Tune!
"Broken Man" has a guitar that rides a blues train that at any moment could take a reggae turn.
WE award 100 Golden Crows!

*How can I help the campaign more?
I want love but not that desperately.
She looks at me
She looks at me with those serial killer eyes.
She gives me the creeps.
I know i cannot hide
The fear in my heart
The madcap nervous vibe!
I can't deny the goose bumps
And the trembling lips as they speak
I want love but not that desperately.
She looks at me
She looks at me with those serial killer eyes.
I feel the butterflies in my gut.
I see their wings flutter in fear.
I do not want to kiss those cold lips.
I want to run to safety
No love for me
No love for me
From those serial killer eyes!
I run to hide.
I run to safety!
I don't want love that desperately.
She looks at me
She looks at me
With those serial killer eyes!
Good Good Good-bye!

It takes money to run a presidential campaign. That is a Fact.
What is wrong with utilizing your own money to fund your run for office? It is your money.
Current presidential aspirants are funding their campaigns with Money from people and organizations.
Mike Bloomberg is fueling his journey to the White House with his Lana aka wool aka money.
Do you want to make political campaigns more about people than money and influences?
Why not put a cap on the amount of money needed for runs at office?
Every candidate would have to raise the same amount.
Mr. Bloomberg is not trying to purchase the Democratic nomination nor the White House.
He like all other candidates is funding his campaign.
Happy Birthday Jasmine Samson.
GOD bless you with good healrh, happiness and love.
Be brilliant and beautiful
Instead of foolish and ugly!
Be about Love
Not about hate.

They are animals to you.
You dare not listen to GOD.

Why do you lust for power?

Your cowardice keeps you warm.

Let freedom rise and reign.
WE were headed for Alton, Texas when WE noticed a young man in a light brown Hyundai car with license number LHN3849 parked near the end of Stewart Road before Highway 107. It looked quite suspicious.
An hour later the car was still there. What was going on?
2 hours later it was gone.
Keep an eye out for suspicious vehicles!

Have you ever taken a song for a walk? WE took " Better Than This" by SARAH MURRAY for a walk down the Dublin Ranch in Mission, Texas.
The song goes well with a walk. Spring is waking up early here. The yellow fragrant blooms of the huisache trees seduce your senses. Ms. Murray's voice fills the atmosphere. Part of nature. Its tone is strong and sweet. All genuine.
SARAH MURRAY Is A Talentosa Singer-Songwriter. It is a part of her Alma aka her Soul. De Veras. For Real.
If Ms. Murray ever hits the Lone Star State WE would love to catch her live if she plays McAllen, Texas.
Or if WE sail for Irlanda!
WE recommend. y'all check out SARAH MURRAY!

President Donald Trump can ride around a racetrack all he wants. He is still a loser.
Trump is still impeached.
The racist is still a hate merchant.
GOD Is Love.
Donald is a disciple of the devil. Satan is hate.
Let that race around the racetrack of your mind.
People gathered around a mindkess fascist politico at the airport to chant
Free the children!
Free the children!
The lawmaker was wearing shorts and a sick grin.
He was looking for a bite to eat?
No conscience
No cross to bear.
No reason to give a damn!
You could see the words cut his skin and torment his soul.
He did not care.
GOD does care about asylum seeking children caged by the world's mightiest and strongest nation on the face of the earth!
GOD will listen to the chants of
Free the children!
Free the children!

As a child I remember seeing a barrel set out for the rain by mt grandfatger's old green tool shed.
It was quiet.
Sitting there.
I could smell the wind.
I could hear the birds singing.
The raindrops dreaming in that pool
In that barrel.
Angels watched the sweet fall of rain
Like parents at a baptism.
