This particular song is so sweet, makes for an interesting contrast to some of their louder stuff.KaliDurgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13218716336939570814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804148397927127420.post-38721781733649890322010-08-16T22:31:37.128-04:002010-08-16T22:31:37.128-04:00Fall has always been my favorite time of year and ...Fall has always been my favorite time of year and I wax nostalgic every September for new shoes, new crayons and pencils...still waiting to grow up I guess.<br /><br />This song has made me a Whaite Stripes fan.

As difficult as this over-bearingly hot summer has been, I think I could deal with that more easily than an entire season of rain. <br /><br />I think, by and large, that most people would consider monsoonal rains to be cleansing, or even purging, rather than deflowering. I wonder about that poet's sexual preoccupation. <br /><br />And actually, I am very lazy about cleaning the bike. There is a basis in truth to the phrase, "the squeaky wheel gets the grease..." that very much applies in my situation.KaliDurgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13218716336939570814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804148397927127420.post-41443024442867664172010-08-15T14:07:40.556-04:002010-08-15T14:07:40.556-04:00Ha, you beat me to the punch.

People are excited, I hear of planting season for the winter crops, although I know nothing of planting or crops. The skies are perenially overcast with clouds of various hues of grey. The days of summer with a blue sky and white clouds seems like a distant dream. Each day the clould get darker and more menacing. I haven't seen the sky in a while. The winds warn of rain, the temperature erattically peaks and falls. I hope and look out for the thunder and lightning. I know it will be here... soon...<br /><br />One poet described the onset of the monsoon here as the masculine monsoon deflowering the virgin earth every year. WOW!<br /><br />Good luck with cleaning the bike in the future. Perhaps you should adopt a more lazy attitude and stop washing it!!!!!!!!!!Story teller - Krishnadas Dwijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02125987605935072929noreply@blogger.com
