Remember This?

Wow, while surfing youtube for today's SMV, I came across this vid, I have not seen this in ages. I remember it so well. All of the musicians look so young, and the song brought back so many memories. Kenny Rodgers looks fab, not like he does now, which is something like a plastic awful tight rubber face. And Michael Jackson, his one glove, back then I thought that was so cool, now I think it looks stupid, he had a great voice, what the heck happen to him? Oh and one more thing, whats up with the sunglasses, mostly everyone is wearing sunglasses, was that the new fad??

I can't figure out the year this came out tho, does anyone remember?

Enjoy as I did...

That song was done in 1985. I haven't heard that in a long time. Thanks Carol.

Mark that down Shirley.... that should be like a #1 for me all the way out here in Hawaii.

Have a great day everyone.... I am going to bed now.

Morning Glories!

Congrats on first Shirley!

Wow Kgirl is up and got 3rd!

I have a lot of catching up to do. Friday gone all day. Yesterday we had no power all day. Some fool hit the telephone pole in front of our drivewayat 2:00 am they left their vehicle and took off! We figure the vehicle was stolen. The pole was hit so hard it had splintered and cracked all the way up!!! So they had to come and replace the whole pole.

We were stuck in our house as they used our driveway for their work site. Then we had a grandsons birthday yesterday which we were very late getting to when we finally did get the chance to leave. Crazy!

I do believe somewhere in all of this that there is a box downstairs that has a certain necklace. I need to open that today and get a picture of it.

Oy I feel like I am running on a treadmill! LOL

Ok off to listen to the video and try to catch up on area 51.

Lynn D said...

I should have put in my narrative, shortly after I posted yesterday was when they came and cut the power. This is what happens before I drink coffee!

Lynn D said...

I just read area 51.

Oh Scrishy I will be sending prayers and postive thoughts your way. I am so sorry you and your Mom are going through this. I agree with Goldie contact the local hospice. These are angels on earth and will help both of you through this time. ((((Hugs)))!

Lynn D said...

Wow Carol so many of them do look so young! Lionel Ritchey pretty much looks the same tho! LOL What I noticed is that the singers that are so passionate and really belive in the song they are singing seem to be the ones that are still around making music today.

I agree about Kenny Rogers he looked so much better before plastic surgery!

Sleep well.. and yes that is actually number 1 for you..

Lynn D said...

LOL screwed up the count!

night.owls.sb said...

Lynnd...

Yikes, that was awful.. I hate when there is no power, it drives me crazy so stressful, you just kinda wait all day for the power to go on..

Was the car stolen?

night.owls.sb said...

Lynnd..

I thought Lionel aged well too..

night.owls.sb said...

Shirley..

Thanks for finding or knowing the year.. So it was over 20yrs ago that vid was made.. Geez its seems like yesterday.. LOL

the wicked bitch is gone~ :D

....and I'm going back to bed~

Lynn D said...

Carol the Sheriff was pretty sure it was stolen. If not these people are in deep shit as the car was also full of empty Corona bottles! Maybe they were so drunk that they did not think about the police being able to trace the vehicle back to them.

We just can't figure out how they left the scene so quickly as our youngest son heard the impact and was outside right away and called the police. We think someone had to have picked them up. Yes they do think there were two people in the vehicle because the passenger side windsheild was cracked like a spider web. I have to think someone was hurt but we do not know. It is very strange and scary!

night.owls.sb said...

I have a communion today, my godchild, I brought her a white gold cross with a chain, I love the cross I picked one out that look antiqueish, yet perfect for a little girl.. I am bringing my flip and camera..

I am leaving in a little bit..

Hope all has a good day..

See ya 2nite..

Lynn D said...

Oh Tina you silly I am still here!

night.owls.sb said...

Lynnd..

Yes, that is scary, just the sound of it in the middle of nite would have frighten me.. And so glad that they were all able to walk away from a crash like that, even if they were perhaps Drunk.. Also glad they hit the pole and not someone else.. or your house.. imagine if you youngest was coming home.. Yikes..

So I am grateful noone was hurt, and the power being off was worth anyone being hurt..

night.owls.sb said...

Lynnd...

LMAO..

night.owls.sb said...

Tina...

I hope you dream of yellow and not wicked witches.. lol

Maureen said...

Good morning feathered friends!

SHIRLEY...grats on 1.

KGIRL...sweet dreams as you moi moi

LYNN...holy crap, you had an interesting Saturday! I'm sure the grandson was just glad to have you there even if you were late.

CAROL...I am going to guess the vid is We Are The World?? Yes, Kenny Rogers was so handsome then. Now he looks scary! I think Bruce Jenner went to the same plasctic surgeon as Kenny!!

Maureen said...

TINA...LOL!! I guess there will be no more hiding in the bathroom!!

Lynn D said...

Morning Mo! Yes it was a very weird Saturday!

The Grandson was happy we showed up. We got to the laser tag place just as the kids were finishing up! LOL But we went back to their house and had a piece of cake. Did not get home until almost 9 last nite! He did like my present the best, well second best. His Mom and Dad are getting him a lizard today.

Maureen said...

LYNN...what did you get him?

night.owls.sb said...

Mo,

You are right, you get the prize, just not sure what the prize is.. lol..

I am off.. see ya all later..

night.owls.sb said...

Unless we are still giving away Iteach's husband.. well then if we are that will be your prize.. I don't think she would mind.. LOL..

Lynn D said...

Prize what prize? This was a contest? I am always a day late and a dollar short!

Mo they were toys called Bokugaun (sp). I had no idea what the heck they were but they were on his list. It was a hit because I bought him two of the darn things and the cards and the fold up mat used to play the game. Evidently the two playing pieces fold up into a ball and then you throw them at each other and try to pop them open to reveal the character you are playing with. How you get points etc.... is a mystery to me. I think the kids like it because they get to throw things! LOL

JoeyfromSC said...

Morning y'all!! I LOVE that video Carol..I've always loved that song..My fave parts are Bruce Springsteen and Cyndi Lauper!:)

It does seem like yesterday..Shirley, thanks for finding the date!

Think I figured out SMV=sunday morning video lol..I'm slow;)

Congrats on 1st Shirley!!!

Lynn, OMG how horrible! I had that happen once in our neighborhood when I was raising my bros years ago...Sadly, the person died..It was a main light pole on the main street right near our house...We lost power for quite a while..Sad that so many choose to drink/drive!

Have a good Sunday everybody!

This year is fast approaching half way..Where is 2009 going?lol

JoeyfromSC said...

LMAO@Tina's song!!

JoeyfromSC said...

Just_Lin said...

Hi, Shirley! Congrats on #1.

Carol This was a great song to listen to today. I do belive Michael Jackson was the one that got everyone organized to do this song and video. Oh, and Carol, regarding the sunglasses. Although Michael put some on, the only other two people I saw wearing sunglasses were the blind people...Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder. So, no, I don't think it was a fad. LOL

Waving a wing at you all.

Just_Lin said...

I do know how to spell believe but I am not going to retype that comment.

JoeyfromSC said...

haha JustLin! Congrats on 50!

I have chicken breasts in the slow cooker(gonna add some cream of mushroom soup later)..Used my Rachael Ray stock in a box for the first time;)lol

I am gonna make a fresh baked sweet potato to go with it and am thinking of sprinkling some Stove Top with cranberries on top and let it get crispy(1st time trying it...was on sale for 50cents a box)

I think that's too many carbs haha

JoeyfromSC said...

of course the stuffing is going on the CHICKEN not the potato lol

I was beginning to think I had cleared out the room at comment 40 lol

Just_Lin said...

Joey Your dinner sounds delish! I have fallen in love with an Apricot Chicken recipe I discovered recently. You cook it in a foil packet. No fuss, no muss and it's very, very tasty.

East Bay J said...

Happy Sunday hooters!

Congrats once again to Shirley this morning!

Kgirl heading to bed at 3:21am Hawaii time! For an early to bed person like me, that is just soooooo late haha! Or early!!

WOW I haven't heard that song in years! It was a great pick for today Carol!

I went to the store about 9:00 this morning and it was already in the 80s.

Right now we are mid 90s and will be 100 by the hottest time of day here, between 3-4pm.

We swept and vacumed the pool last night, so it is nice and clean and ready for us to jump in.

Joey your slow cooker dish sounds good. I love making stuff with mushroom soup too. Sometimes I will take a can of it and add some sour cream, worsteshire sauce and seasonings, and the serve it over rice. It's soooo good! Like a stroganoff sauce.

I have been trying to get the laundry done, so far the house is staying cool.

Hope everyone is having a nice day!

Good Afternoon- almost evening- Hooters!!

Shirley- wow you are getting good at that #1- congrats!

lynn- what frigging idiots. Its one thing to be inconvenienced by a storm or something, but not by idiots who break the law!

Hubby has a chicken on the rottesorie(sp) and I have baby reds with fresh garlic and fresh rosemary in the oven.. salad and fresh green beans (costco) and dinner is going to be fan-tas-tic!!

sacBarb said...

Happy Sunday Owls.

Carol, It was good to hear this song again. I haven't heard it in a very long time. It's hard to believe it has been 20 years. And poor Kenny Rodgers. Plastic is a good word for his looks. Was he trying to look like Barbi?

Shirley, Congrats on #1.

K-grl, You were up late. Partying???

LynnD, I hate when the power goes off. I forgot to empty the ice container and I had water dripping out the door thingy the last time the power went out.

Mo, Yes, Bruce Jenner is scary too.

Tina, has finally come out...of the bathroom.

Joey, Thx for the DH link.

J/L, congrats on 50

EBJ, you're gettin' good at 69

Hi Tinka, and all the Owls. I hope everyone is having good day. I'm watching rerun of Gilmore Girls on SOAPNet.

I'll wait until everyone has eaten before I tell you what happened to OUR dinner!!! OH......

waving at everyone!!!

Hope everyone's had an excellent day so far....

Season finale' of Survivor tonight!

bbl

East Bay J said...

Hi hooters,

MEK we are primed for the 3 hour finale tonight... can't believe it's over already.

Tomorrow is the end of DWTS, but the Bachelorette starts :)

I hope Big Brother starts pretty soon.

This afternoon, I called the wildlife hospital where I took that little bird on Weds. They ask you to wait 4 days to call and check on animals).

Anyway, the woman I spoke to looked up the case # they had given me, and she told me she was sorry, but the little bird didn't make it.

It had an infection in a joint of it's wing, probably from a cat bite.

I was soooo sad to hear that.

Goldie your dinner sounds yummy too!

I wish we could have an owl pot luck, can you imagine all the goodies we'd have?

JoeyfromSC said...

Thanks Just_Lin..It was good! lol

Yw sacbarb for the link!:)

Your meal sounds yummy too goldie!

Ok, this is hilarious! I had forgotten about it...It kinda parodies We are the World, and is a bit vulgar but it's the edited version lol

JIMMY KIMMEL & BEN AFFLECK

JoeyfromSC said...

thanks EBJ! Your sauce sounds easy and yummy!!

JoeyfromSC said...

JoeyfromSC said...

EBJ, Big Brother usually starts around July 6th or so! too far away lol

sacBarb said...

Well, J/L, I think dinner is over and I guess Goldie didn't want us there.

sacBarb said...

MEK, we would have picked you up.

Just_Lin said...

SacBarb I guess I'm going to have to make my own dinner. Darn! LOL

MEK Sorry we couldn't help you out with the dinner situation.

Joey Thanks for the link. I saw it the first time around and I laughed just as hard this time.

East Bay J said...

Joey, I'd never seen that video before, it just cracked me up!

Good evening feathered friends!

Just finished watching the season finale of D.H. It was good, but not as good as Grey's!!!!!!!

JOEY...I saw that on Jimmy Kimmel...laughed my ass off!

GOLDIE...I guess my embossed dinner invitation got lost in the mail! It sounded yummy.

MEK...what in the world happened to your dinner?????? Inquiring minds want to know!

CAROL...how was the communion? The kids look so cute in their pretty white dresses.

From yesterday...
ITEACH...I hope things look up soon...they will.

SCIRISH...I am so sorry about the turn your mom has taken. We are here for you whenever you need us. Continued prayers for you and your mom. {{hugs}}

Bebbilane said...

Congrats on first Shirley cakes!

Hi Everybody!

Great song Carol. I have some catching up to do. I noticed the blog from yesterday was about Farrah. That was so well done. And, so smart and insightful for her to put it out there for people to live the true pain that is cancer. God Bless Farrah, I hope that she survives this. What an incredible lady.

I hope everyone is doing swell today. It was a beautiful day here in Louisville.

Bebbilane said...

Joey, I love Cyndi Lauper in that video too. I saw her perform as the warm up group on Cher's final tour. My daughter and I had a blast. They had a curtain up and we peaked over the top and she told us to get down because we might get hurt..lol. Really, I think she was po'd because she didn't have any privacy..lol lol. I love her though, so sweet.

Bebbilane said...

Scrishy: So sorry to hear about your Mom. :( My thoughts and prayers are with you hon.

Bebbilane said...

EBJ: Sorry to hear the bird didn't make it. :( I can't wait for Big Brother Too..also, didn't know the Batcherlette (sp?) starts tomorrow, that will be fun!

Bebbilane said...

Well, just thought I would stop by. I hope everyone is well. Take care!

Maureen said...

Hey BEBBI...nice to see you stop in! Your new ms avatar looks great. Good job!

night.owls.sb said...

Hi guys....

I am exhausted, the communion was great, I took a vid and will upload soon.. I have been trying to upload pics but for some reason my computer is not reading the card, not sure why tho as it read it in the past..

And after the communion I had to go to my neighbors for a college graduation party..

So, now I am done..

Off to bed cause I can't see straight..

I have no blog for tomorrow and no words, so I just threw one together, so we have a one for tomorrow..

Hope all had a good day!

Nite..

MEK in AZ said...

our internet just came back up - apparently, we are having a bad storm - hasn't rained here - the sky just looks REALLY nasty!!

I hope everyone has eaten by now!! heck, most of us are either sleeping or should be going to bed...

Goldie - I'm sure your dinner was wonderful!! wish i had been there...

MEK in AZ said...

here's our dinner story...... I should have submitted this for a blog!! :-)

we had cold stone creamery for lunch (yes, I'm starting to watch what i eat TOMORROW!!)..

we decided that we'd have steaks - so we made a grocery list..

Ribeyes were on sale - I had purchased a bag of potatoes on Thursday - so we didn't need those.. and the list goes on..

SO- Mr. MEK comes home with ribeyes out of the glass case (we hardly ever do that) - they were wrapped so nicely in their little paper...

mr. mek went outside to start the grill and I was in charge of the potatoes and salad and bread...

i opened the five pound bag of potatoes that have been sitting on my kitchen counter since THURSDAY!! and the top two potatoes have those little sprouts coming out of them and felt a little "soft" - so i took those out - looked like there was dirt or coffee grinds in the bag - So - I dumped the bag out into my strainer like bowl - there were a couple of potatoes that looked okay and then I started to REALLY look at what was going on in the bowl......... OMG...... most of the bag - I can't tell you how many potatoes in all - had been eaten ALIVE with LIVE worms - there were worms EVERYWHERE in those potatoes....... I screamed - went looking for mr. mek - he was nowhere to be found..

(turns out - Tug had run gotten out of the yard and he was down at the park where she was socializing with children) ..

- SO - i took the worms and all - and into the garbage bin they went - thank God trash domes tomorrow.......

anyway - i lost my appetite - felt like I had things crawling all over me - probably wont' sleep well at all........

OH - and when i took the potatoes out to the trash - a flock of pigeons dive bombed my head - felt like i was in "The Bird" movie..

Thank goodness that bag of potatoes was sealed up and nothing got out...... I wiped the whole kitchen down......

SOOOOOOOOOOOO - that was our dinner!!!

I didn't even open up the salad - I'm sure something would have been in that!!! YIKES!!!

it will be along time before i purchase a BAG of potatoes if I can't see what I am getting...

Just_Lin said...

MEK I'm sorry your dinner was ruined. Sounds like you started watching what you eat today, after all. ;)

I have to get up early to take my car in for routine service. Sweet dreams to all.

Maureen said...

MEK...that WAS disgusting! But, I am thinking you had special potatoes...our potatoes are only carbs, but yours were filled with protein, too!!!! Just kidding. I would have reacted the same way!! But I may have sealed the garbage bag and returned them to the store to get my money back and let them throw away the grossness!!!!

iteach said...

Good morning everyone! Have a good day!

Bebbilane said...

Thanks Mo! :)

Bebbilane said...

Carol: I have a blog, I just have to get a picture taken and it will be ready.
