    Bringing out the cheese on a Friday before jetting off to work unofficial sticky:
    (key the piano)








    Just a small town girl
    Living in a lonely world
    She took the midnight train going anywhere
    Just a city boy
    Born and raised in South Detroit
    He took the midnight train going anywhere

    A singer in a smoky room
    A smell of wine and cheap perfume
    For a smile they can share the night
    It goes on and on and on and on

    {Refrain}
    Strangers, waiting, up and down the boulevard
    Their shadows searching in the night
    Streetlight people, living just to find emotion
    Hiding somewhere in the night

    Working hard to get my fill
    Everybody wants a thrill
    Paying anything to roll the dice
    Just one more time
    Some will win, some will lose
    Some were born to sing the blues
    Oh the movie never ends
    It goes on and on and on and on

    {Refrain}

    Don't stop believing
    Hold on to that feeling
    Streetlight people

    I prefer the Sibley's Field Guide to Birds of Eastern North America as my main source in the field.......it's just at $20 and readily available in any bookstore. It is the small Sibley's with an American Goldfinch on front. The "big" Sibley's (with a hawk on front) is too bulky to carry in the field.

    National Geographic makes a small book specific to Texas.....but it leaves out many "common" birds.

    Practice, practice, practice is the best way to pick them out.......go out with experienced birders and learn from them. Don't be afraid to ask them questions. Good binoculars also help.

    There's a lot of great birding possibilities along the Texas coastline near to Houston.

    Had a professor tell us that the AARP discounts are worth the price of membership......and it is a very influential lobby on Capital Hill.

    Really?? I certainly didn't reject it out of vanity, I just didn't see where I would use any of the benefits with the way that I travel, have other resources (corporate discounts etc.). Didn't think of the lobbying power - maybe I'll check it out.
