Crazy Sam’s Saturday 9: Already Gone
(recommended by Diana)
If you're not familiar with today's song, you can hear it here.
1) Eagles lead singer Glenn Frey proclaims that he's "feeling strong." How would you describe yourself this fine Saturday?
Relaxed. Sitting on the deck next to the lake playing this meme.
2) The song begins with a rumor: "I heard some people talking just the other other day ..." Have you heard anything juicy/interesting lately? Please share!
We are on baby watch; my nephew and his wife are expecting their second child this week.
3) When "Already Gone" was popular, the news was dominated by Richard Nixon and the Watergate scandal. What do you consider today's top news story?
All of the wars around the world, Iraq, Syria, Israeli, and the Ukraine. It seems like the terrorist are getting bolder.
4) In the 1970s, Eagles Glenn Frey and Don Henley were at the center of a social circle of very creative people, including singer Linda Ronstadt, singer-songwriter Jackson Browne and actor-comedian Steve Martin. How do you express your creativity?
With the camera.
5) Even though they broke up in 1980, the Eagles are currently on a reunion tour, and after knowing each other more than 40 years, Frey and Henley still consider each other friends. What quality to do you value most in a friendship?
Caring about each other.
6) Are there any mirrors in the room you're in right now?
Nope. I don’t see any hanging in any of the trees around here.
7) What's the last beverage you drank with ice?
Ice coffee.
8) Whole, skim, 2%, half-and-half, almond or soy ... what kind of milk is in your refrigerator right now?
Light cream for coffee.
9) Sam likes to mix sliced almonds into her salad. What do you think makes a good salad?
Goat cheese, cranberries, and walnuts with a raspberry vinaigrette.

Your salad sounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteYou take some great photos. :-)
DD1 got me hooked on goat cheese and your salad sounds great. Beautiful photo.
ReplyDeleteI think you show great creativity in your salad!
ReplyDeleteI like goat cheese, too, in salads. Or on crackers. My husband won't eat it, though.
ReplyDeleteThat picture is amazing! "Already Gone" is by far my favorite Eagles song. But for a guy who's trying marriage for a third time, I guess my friend Billy is right. He said that makes me an optimist...
ReplyDeleteI don't even get why anyone would want to be a terrorist. There is nothing better to do?
ReplyDeleteBet you grab some beautiful photography, having a lake nearby. The picture is even more beautiful on the bigger click!
ReplyDeleteYou're so right, Diane, the troubles in the middle east don't seem to be improving one iota!
ps.......that salad sounds amazing. If I copy it can I say I made it up...?lol
