Do you know the way to San Jose?
I've been away so long
I may go wrong and lose my way
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I'm going back
To find some peace of mind
In San Jose
L.A. is a great big freeway
Put a hundred down and buy a car
In a week maybe two,
They'll make you a star
Weeks turn into years
How quick they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas
You can really breathe in San Jose
They've got a lot of space
There'll be a place where I can stay
I was born and raised in San Jose
I'm going back
To find some peace of mind
In San Jose
Fame and fortunes a magnet
It can pull you far away from home
With a dream in your heart
You are never alone
Dreams turn into dust and blow away
And there you are without a friend
You pack your car and ride away
I got lots of friends in San Jose
Do you know the way to San Jose?
Actually I went to Willow Glen High School in San Jose so I do know the way...I just like Dionne Warwick's song!!!
Hola all you Saturday Matinee lovers of those thrilling days of yesteryear,
On any given Saturday during the early 40's I would have already been up and have the milk (along with the chocolate milk that I pulled out on the 'fan flag' for the milkman to leave) and the orange juice in the icebox...I would have been in trouble for adding the chocolate milk to the daily order but I was always in that kind of trouble...The milkman and the ring-a-ding ice cream man were friends of mine...The ice man was OK but he only had ice to deliver that I chipped off and sucked on during those hot summer days much to my mother's chagrin...I could go through a 50lb block of ice in no time at all...Just a chip off the old block, that's me...
I have done the daily wash and am now in my place with a sunshiny face...Alice has the usual visions of suger plums in her head while still in her bed and she is also experiencing tinges of anticipation knowing that the Academy Awards will be actually shown this Sunday...I think she would have blown up the Writer's Guild if they had taken these awards away as they did the Golden Globe Awards...Women like that red carpet scene what with all it's fancy clothing and outrageous jewelry and stuff...I personally will be watching the end of a good John Wayne western about the time that the best actor will be getting his award...We martians have our priorities...Timing is everything...I'll get out my Lonesome Dove tapes if I have to in order to avoid watching the likes of Joan Rivers being a ninny* (*Urban Dictionary: ninny: dolt, blockhead, cretin, donkey, dope, dork, dunce, fathead, ignoramus, imbecile, moron, nincompoop, nitwit, numskull, simpleton, bonehead, boob, buffoon, dimwit, dodo)...Pick one and you're a winner!!! Ya can't lose... Ja Ja Ha Ha!!!
Yesterday Alice and I thought we were going to have rotisseried chicken for a change from Delichicken but they were closed for their once a year Saint's Friday which is some kind of day when those that serve meat or something similiar don't work!!! I know not of what I speak and I don't care enough to find out...Without missing a beat, I called Domino's and had them deliver one of the best pure and simple pepperoni pizzas (they call it peppernisima) that we have had here outside of the ones offered at Venecia...We ate the whole thing, an extra grande at that...
I shall now stop this diatribe and go outside and wipe down the pony and then get ready to trek over to Vip's for some hot coffee and a little newspaper reading...Have a good one folks...See ya tomorrow...
Cheerio,
Cliffardo
