I was standing behind an elderly couple in the grocery store checkout line last week.
The cashier told them that someone had donated $100 toward their groceries. $100 had already been paid toward their $121 grocery…
LYRICS:
With Or Without You

Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight…

My body's going to set me free…

I like this version.
Thanks Michael - You've been a wonderful…

There is nothing like the presence of a horse. The quiet understanding. The gentle strength.
Woodlake, California...1961. I had a horse. She was my friend.
There were times in my teens when Babe was the only being that did not judge me…
