Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. ~Philippians 4:8 My son preached last night at Anchor Baptist Church in Millersville. He was given by the Pastor one of my favorite verses in the Bible. He preached it well  and perhaps a little differently than I've ... Read More

Back in Windows 98 and XP days, I used a program called PrintFolder and I was very happy with it. Today, using my Windows 7 computer, and looking over what Christmas music I have, I was hoping to print the contents of the folder. Then I realized, I don't have that program for this OS. I first thought, gee, you'd think Windows 7 with all it's hype would have something already installed for such a need. It doesn't. The reason I wanted ... Read More

It's been awhile since I got my new computer. Even so, it's been even longer to completely get it set up. (It sat in the box for awhile too). It's just that it's overwhelming and I didn't have much time to deal with it. Well this weekend, I finally set up the speakers so I could hear music and moved my external hard drive with my MP3 collection to the new PC as well. In doing this, I thought I best ... Read More

"It's 10 PM, do you know where your LED is?" and then went on to play Led Zeppelin for the next hour. I found out, I have way too few Led Zeppelin songs.  I added to my collection.

Listen HERE   "...He became sin for us, He was the only One who could do it. Have you ever thought to yourself, I am a pretty good person, I keep the law... I think I'll make it .

Most who visit my blog know that my external hard drive, where I store all my music, failed. I have not been able to get together the money needed to look into a data recovery specialist, although, a few of them quoted me fair prices, well below the 1,000 - 2,000 dollar standard, it was still steep for me in light of my limited income. I have that on the back burner for now, perhaps I will still be able to do ... Read More

I really can't say I am a country music listener, but growing up, our house was often filled with the sounds of Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Loretta Lynn, and Dolly Parton, just to name a few. So, I am a little bit country thanks to my dad. I can remember him taping songs on his reel-to-reel, then to cassette, playing 8 tracks, records, and finally on a CD player. Just recently, I found a few of his CD's which I converted to Mp3s. 1. ... Read More

I suppose 1972 was the year I started listening to the radio in earnest, finding songs I liked, and taping them with my very own Panasonic Tape Recorder to listen to songs over and over again! Not sure my parents were very happy about that, but I got a lot of enjoyment from the tape recorder. My dad used to let me use his reel-to-reel as well. Here is a list of the hits of 1972 as given in my Time-Life ... Read More

American Idol did Queen songs tonight, and I've been anxious all week to see how that would go on tonight's show. There were some pleasant surprises, like Kelly singing Bohemian Rhapsody! There wasn't one that was a surprise however, I KNEW Katherine HAD to sing one of my favorites, "Who Wants to Live Forever". She did, and she nailed it. I wanted Chris to sing "Princes of the Universe" from Highlander, but he went with "Innuendo." As much as I would ... Read More

Ok. I admit it. I'm addicted. I now look forward to each and every Tuesday night when the finalists of each week will compete once again. I get cozy with my children and we try to guess who will do well, who will be eliminated, and groan each week when they keep ones we don't like. Last week they all had to sing a country song, (I am now a new fan of country music), and next week they all have to ... Read More

If anyone knows where to ... Read More

A subject close to my heart is that of hearing loss. At a very young age, due to a very bad case of the measles having gone to my ears, I lost a great deal of my hearing. I was 90% deaf in the left ear, and over 50% in the right. Needless to say, not being able to understand at a young age that I was missing sounds, I resorted to lip reading what people were telling me. When it ... Read More
