Greg G announced on "The Five" that Tom Shillue will be on the panel tonight (Mon), dashing rumors that he had forgotten to get back on the plane when it refueled in Omaha. 😉
“David Allen Coe”
Recently passed on April 29…
This is my second favorite David Allen Coe song; the first being ‘You never even called me by my name’.
‘Would you lay with me (in a field of stone)’
Would you lay with me in a field of stone
If my needs were strong would you lay with me
Should my lips grow dry would you wet them dear
In the midnight hour if my lips were dry
Would you go away to another land
Walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dying hand if I give myself to you
Would you bathe with me in the stream of life
When the moon is full will you bathe with me
Will you still love me when I'm down and out
In my time of trials will you stand by me
Would you go away...
Would you lay with me in a field of stone
If my needs were strong would you lay with me
“This is our big mistake: to think we look forward to death. Most of death is already gone. Whatever time has passed is owned by death.”
– Seneca the younger
“Epictetus”
Remember, it is not enough to be hit or insulted to be harmed, you must believe that you are being harmed. If someone succeeds in provoking you, realize that your mind is complicit in the provocation. Which is why it is essential that we not respond impulsively to impressions; take a moment before reacting, and you will find it easier to maintain control.
— Epictetus
