Can a bad person, turn out to be good? Can a person redeem themselves? Maybe, I had a uncle who was a son of a bitch. He was abusive to my aunt, wasn't a good father. On some payday he would gamble his check and lose all his money , and my aunt wouldn't see him for several day. My aunt had to pay all the bills. My aunt must have really loved this man! She had four kids with him, and never filed for divorce. She was his rock when he was down and out, she always took him back when he left, and when he was sick she nursed him back to health. There was one time he admitted that he didn't deserve such a loving woman. Years later she died, and he inherited everything she owned, two cars, a little money and a house, along with the life insurance policy. Family members was upset, and thought he shouldn't have gotten anything. Later in years, my dad died. He was a good man, good father and everyone loved him. He was 6yrs younger than my uncle. I was upset, why would God take a good man and let a horrible man remain alive? I look at life as unfair, I was hurt. But as time passed by, my uncle started to change. He gave up drinking, cussing, and started to go to church once in a while. His child, my cousin moved in with him. He tried to reach out to the other children, but my oldest cousin refused to acknowledge him. His health start to deteriorate, so my cousin was there to take care of her dad. At times, I talked to other family members and they said he did 180 degree turned. I couldn't believe it, with in a year he died. Then I thought about it, my dad was a good man, and did all he had to do so god took him, and my uncle was spared and given a chance to redeem himself. It took much longer for my uncle, compared to my dad. So the question is? Can we be redeem? Maybe if we live long enough, we can!

I know this title, some might say, that brother smoking crack! No way. I'm talk about songs and one hit wonders, all kind of good stuff.
There was a group called Graham Central Station. The founder of the group was Larry Graham, former bass player, from the group "Sly and the family stone". Thery was fire. In 1970 the group was formed and they reign for 6 years. In 1977, they did another albums, with such songs as "Hurricane" and "My radio , sure sound good to me". They ask a member years laters, why the break up, she said, the first 3 albums was great! They after that they couldn't create another good album or a big hit, so the group broke up.
In 1979 , Karen Carpenter did an album, the critics and her brother thought the album was a flop, and it didn't get released! Many years after her death in 1983, the albums was released. I got it and listen to it, the albums could had been better, there was atlease 3 songs, that was tweaked that could had been a hit. A lot of people didn't like this album. He brother was in rehab for pills, and she wanted to do something without him. He was hard on the albums, she felt like he betrayed her and she gave up.. For the hit they had created, her brother wrote the songs and arrange the music. I miss her, rest her soul! With a little extra, she could had a hiit or two!
The group "The Temptations " started out in 1960. it took 1964 for them to have their first hit! then the group took off them there. there was another group called "The 4 Tops", they started off in 1953, and ithey didn't get their 1st hit til 1964. It took them years get thie 1st hit! Writing a hit is a hard things do. I admire them, it's not a eay thing!
Here are some artist who was literly "A one hit wonder"!
* Looking Glass- Brandy
*Alicia Bridges- I love the Nightlife
* Stair Steps- O-O-H
* Wild Cherry- Play that Funky Music (White ) *Pilot- Magic
* Maurice Williams & the Zodiac- Stay (later again became a hit when the 4 seasons sung it.)
* Procol Harum- A whiter shade of Pale. I love this song!
* Vicki Sue Robinson- Turn the beat around.
I'm not player hating for I like all of the songs! Some of these songs, I still listen , this day. This prove it's hard stay in the music game! I would be a one hit wonder!

"I got it made"!

Just imagine that not only the military and but Government agencies have a 20 year retirement. 8 years ago, my neighbor met a lady, that had a Sugar Daddy. One day, the Sugar Daddy was at my neighbor's place. This Sugar Daddy was a smart guy. He retired from the Army after 20 years, then he joined the Marines and did another 20 years. After that he got a silver service job, and worked thill he was 65 years old. He got his retirement from the silver service job and his social security. Not counting his two retiremnet checks. He said, after taxes, he still take home $8000 a month.
He said to me, people should retire from a job, soon as they can, than go to another job and get another retirement. Then he said to me, "Drew, I got it made"! I work with a guy whose 63 year old, and he got 40 years at the company I retired from. I told him 17 years ago to retire and get another government job. Like VA hospital, Post Office, Department of Energy, they still have retirements. I told him he could double dipped and be set when he retire. When I worked my government job, there was a few people who had 50 plus years of service. They was either late 60s or early 70s.
People always asked them when are they going to retire? They was proud of their longevity, and say the job give them something to do. They was there too long to pass on the wisdom, i got from the Sugar Daddy. I notice epople who have 35 years or more people expected less from them. Maybe because of their health problem. or just maybe they was getting older. They didn't have to work as hard, or someone of them got into Jobs that they didn'thave to do shit!. This one guy who have 50 years with company. I did mentioned to him , he could have gotten another check if he retired.
He said, Yeah, that would had been nice. But, i'm in a cake job, and I don't have to work hard. Then the strangest thing happened. He said, the same thing the Sugar Daddy said to me, work for word! He was talk about his job. He said, "Drew I got it made"!

In 1968, James Taylor wrote a song called "Fire and Rain". The song was about suicide of a friend, his herion addiction, and a group he created called "The flying machine". Like that song, but I decided, why not pictures of Fire and Rain?
Hope you like the pictures!
