One of my favorite Christmas movies, The Bells of St. Mary. Notice the children’s pledge of allegiance is “one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all.” Remove “under God” again (added by Eisenhower in 1954), it’s divisive #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

Missing my sweet girl, Emmy Lou. She crossed the Rainbow Bridge on Dec 1 and I think of her everyday.

Run and play, Emmy Lou. No more pain, anxiousness or panic attacks. You're free.

Not so much of the Old, he’s only a whippersnapper here in 1989! With that rooster boy haircut 😂 & yeah I agree on the BVs & the full band is so tight. Was just checking if my good friend Leland Sklar was on bass.. he is😎
I shook his hand in Belfast

Flashback to 18 years ago:
Carole King and James Taylor returned to the Troubadour in November 2007 to celebrate the venue's 50th anniversary. Their original band members Danny Kortchmar, Leland Sklar & Russell Kunkel joined them for the 3 night run.

As a tribute to sweet Emmy Lou, who departed this world earlier today; I purchased a pet urn necklace and placed a few strands of her fur into it. I will wear it always infinity.

Rest in Peace, Emmy Lou

Earlier today, my sweet Emmy Lou transitioned to the other side. She was 12 1/2 years old and was suffering from cognitive/dementia issues. So long, Emmy Lou. I'll see you on the other side.

Tell Mom to feed you lots of bacon! Mwah! forever.

Weird coincidence or no?

The interim HC for the @tennessee-titans.bsky.social was Mike Malarkey after Ken Whisenhut. Now, Mike McCoy is the interim coach after Callahan.

Both names have the initials: MM

My eyes have seen the glory! Of a first-quarter Titans' TD! Cam Ward to Chimere Dike for 38 yards to put TN up over the Patriots.
A 10-3 lead and 10 whole points in the first quarter for a team outscored 47-9 through the first six games in this quarter.

I do love sitting by the banks of the Mississippi having dinner with the pups at my new fave restaurant.. Delacroix NOLA. The Miss is bubbling with activity, from beautiful paddle steamers that fascinate the dogs, to impressive tankers & storage containers feeding the country on this mighty river

With all this Brian Callahan news, it brings to mind a QB they almost completely ruined; Marcus Mariota.

Here we go again....Sorry #CamWard
