It makes me think of all the beautiful music I've heard
And brings to mind a kind of paradise
It just may be some kind of wonderland magic to me
Still don't know how this fortune came to me
All the things I see

When I hear the sound of your voice
When I hear the sound of your voice

If feels to me like warmth from sitting in front of a fire
Light of my life you always show the way
Gleam in your eye a spark igniting the fire inside
Burning so bright the way I feel for you
It's like a dream come true

All of my being depends upon you
That's for sure
You're my refuge in a stormy sea
The sun above that shines on me
I thought that love such as this could be found
Only in movies
Just like searching for a pot of gold
Follow the rainbow and do what you're told

Just when you think it's all been said and it's been done before
Should I explain how you're affecting me
It's not control it's more an influence over my soul
Covering all like colors brilliantly
Canvas brush palette three

(from https://www.huffpost.com/entry/al-green-impeachment-trump_n_5d2f09d2e4b085eda5a4a836)

“To condemn a racist President is not enough, we must impeach him,” (Rep. Al) Green said in a statement . . . about his decision to introduce articles of impeachment against Trump. “This will be a defining vote. The world is watching, and history will judge us all.”

(from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Green_(politician)

". . . Efforts to impeach Donald Trump have been proposed by various people and groups who assert that President Donald Trump has engaged in impeachable activity during his presidency. Talk of impeachment began before Trump took office. Formal efforts were initiated by representatives Al Green and Brad Sherman, both Democrats, in 2017, the first year of his presidency. Grounds asserted for potential impeachment have included possible violations of the Foreign Emoluments Clause of the Constitution by accepting payments from foreign dignitaries; alleged collusion with Russia during the campaign for the 2016 United States presidential election; alleged obstruction of justice with respect to investigation of the collusion claim; and accusations of "Associating the Presidency with White Nationalism, Neo-Nazism and Hatred", which formed the basis of a resolution for impeachment brought on December 6, 2017. . ."

Voices of all hue and stripe
Can be heard throughout each day and night
Some are worth aBosley Beachten
But many are not
Yours is to choose

There's a voice of reason
There's a voice of discontent
There's a voice of great dishonesty
And a voice of great lament

But the voice I find most desirable
Is a voice I hear quite much
And I've always found it all I need
It's power can literally touch

(From http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2017/10/jeff-flake-just-delivered-the-most-impassioned-rebuke-of-donald-trump/)
". . . “I rise today with no small measure of regret,” Flake said from the Senate floor, his voice at times cracking. “Regret, because of the state of our disunion, regret because of the disrepair and destructiveness of our politics, regret because of the indecency of our discourse, regret because of the coarseness of our leadership, regret for the compromise of our moral authority, and by our—all of our—complicity in this alarming and dangerous state of affairs. . . “It is time for our complicity and our accommodation of the unacceptable to end,” he continued. . ."

Tireless. . .

. . . Ty . . .

(from http://www.ultimateoldiesradio.com/djpage.cfm?djID=42&name=Ty+Ford)
". . . Ty Ford is a well-known name in Baltimore radio from the 70's and 80's. Ty Ford is a well-known voice in hundreds of commercials heard today around the world. The Baltimore resident trained for radio at the Grantham School in Washington DC in 1967, and after earning his FCC license (remember when we all had to do that?), Ford began that all too familiar journey into the 'biz'. Ty Ford jocked a lot of rock and roll in his day, but he eventually found his niche in audio production and voiceovers. . . The Ty Ford radio career began at 900 AM WLMD in Laurel, Maryland (a town between Baltimore and Washington). He worked there from the Fall of '69 to the Spring of the following year. 'LMD was a daytimer, and a great place for aspiring radio stars like Ty Ford. In addition to playing 'middle of the road' tunes and handling afternoon news, Ford also hosted Irish and Polka shows on the weekend. . .  in March of 1970, Ty embarked on a year's sojourn at WNAV AM and FM in Annapolis. The format was Top 40, and Ford handled full-time airshifts, first midday and then evenings, as well as production for both stations. In 1972, Ty cracked his first Major Market gig, scoring a slot at Progressive Rock formatted 86 WAYE. That operation was destined to be a legendary station, featuring the likes of Ford, Chris Emry, and the redoubtable Marty ('The Mellow Morning Mama') McLean. After a year at WAYE, Ty moved to WHFS in Bethesda, Maryland. This rather strong FM signal served both Baltimore and Washington and Ty rocked out for 3 years starting in the Spring of '72. With his First Class FCC ticket, Ty was also Chief Engineer at 'HFS. From '75 thru '77, he worked briefly at WEAM in Washington and then went back to WLMD in Laurel for a second cup of coffee. It was in March of 1977 that Ty Ford landed the big one. Production Manager for both WIYY-FM and 50,000 watt WBAL-AM in Baltimore. He would remain there for the next 10 years. In 1986, after the better part of 2 decades on the air, Ty left the grind and carried his talents to freelance voiceovers and productions. He is one of the most successful VO guys in the business. After I "graduated" from the "Hearst School Of Broadcasting", I went from freelance, to self-employed, to private practice, running my own studio. I have clients all over the country and around the world. I do very little voicework for local clients, although I started doing mostly local radio and TV spots. I work long distance, using ISDN, VOIP and an FTP server.' Even though his production company commandeers his time, he will on occasion dabble with on-air guest appearances, and has never lost his passion for radio. Ty comments, 'Many radio folks think radio is an exceptionally crummy, backstabbing business. Having been in and out, I can attest that radio doesn't have an exclusive on BS'.  .  ."

Ty is also a talented singer/songwriter/guitarist/vocalist and tireless promoter of the Baltimore/Washington local music scene. He is currently working on "The Thoughts Behind the Songs" which will take place at Germano's Piattini in Baltimore's Little Italy, Tuesday, March 28th at 7:30PM.

Stranger Than . . .

. . . fiction . . .

 (from http://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/italys-singing-nun-cristina-scuccia-covers-madonnas-virgin-n230346)
Reviving Madonna’s blockbuster “Like a Virgin” may not seem an obvious pick for Italy’s singing nun, Sister Cristina Scuccia. After all, it's not entirely clear if Madonna was fully referring to the Holy Spirit when she belted out the words “touched for the very first time.” But Scuccia, who is set to release her debut album on Nov. 11 after winning Italy’s “The Voice” singing competition earlier this year, claims she only had the purest of intentions when she chose the track. “Reading the text, without being influenced by previous interpretations, you discover that it is a song about the power of love to renew people [and] rescue them from their past,” the nun told Italian newspaper Avvenire.

“We have transformed this song from the pop-dance piece, which it was, into a romantic ballad ... something more similar to a lay prayer than to a pop piece,” she added. Both videos are set in Venice, but while the American singer rolled around sensually in a gondola, the nun sings in various landmarks wearing a habit. Scuccia said she did not think Madonna had heard her rendition, adding: “I’d like to see her face when they tell her it’s a nun singing.”

Cute Little Female . . .

. . . voice

So the cute, little female voice listens to my problem attentively and asks me very politely to hold on while she finds out exactly who will be able to help me. My problem is, in brief, that the rain gutter on my house was damaged by the roofing firm (where the cute, little female voice works) when they replace the roof on the house to our immediate right for the former owner.  Our row-homes are, needless to say, connected. So after a reasonable, yet not extremely short, time another voice, female-but this time not so cute or little, joins the line and says to me, "can I help you."  Since I had just explained quite succinctly, the details of my dilemma to the previously-mentioned cute, little female voice, the entire situation, I responded to the effect of 'didn't the prior representative tell you the nature of my situation or must I begin afresh?'  (Can you detect a certain 'attitude' exuding from the second person?  I DID!) She admitted that she was familiar with my situation, but in keeping with her general demeanor, she was sure to ask certain questions which prompted a repeat of the general story anyway, to which she responded in a tone of, 'what is it exactly that you are asking' and when told an insignificant (to a roofing contractor) $200 to repair the gutter that employees of her firm damaged. In keeping with her 'professional' (i.e. money-grubbing) disposition she then informed me that since the house next door was sold by the previous owner, who contracted the replacement roof, the life-time warranty so generously provided him was now null and void- a fact in which I have no (or at least very little) interest in relation to the reason I had called.  Then the kind soul berated me for the delay between the time the work was done and the time I contacted her [the roofer] to which I wish I had responded, "If only your workmen had left me a note informing me that they damaged my gutter system and specified the exact location and extent of the damage, I most certainly would have contacted you much sooner."

Pre-Debate. . .

. . . tutorial. . . (one left to go)

(from http://www.mahalo.com/how-to-tell-if-someone-is-lying-voice/)
". . . Step 1: Unusual Ahem's Alert
Although clearing one's throat is not necessarily considered aberrant behavior, it is not a normal everyday feature of the average person's speech. A healthy liar is more likely to do the "ahem" sound than a healthy non-liar. Psychological stress on a typical liar tends to put some tension on their muscular system, which includes their vocal muscles. The vocal muscles are miniscule in size, about the size of a thumbnail.1 The air you breathe passes through the vocal muscles on their way to the lungs and vice-versa. When the vocal muscles contract, they temporarily halt the respiration process; hence, the tensed liar may need to clear their throat in order to continue speaking.

Step 2: Creaky Voice Alert
Another common after-effect of lying and the anxiety associated with it on the vocal system is a creaky tone or a glottal fry.1 It is called so, because the voice then sounds as if it is being fried. The vocal chords try to minimize the impact of the lack of air by conserving it, resulting in a creaky voice. A physically healthy nervous liar is more likely than a relaxed physically healthy honest person to speak with a creaky voice.

Step 3: Judge in Context
While the typical liar's vocal features described in the previous steps can be a warning sign, they are to be analyzed within the proper context. There are many causes of the creaky voice and clearing of throat, and the anxiety that accompanies the act of lying is just one of them. Sickly honest people can just as easily experience these vocal problems as healthy dishonest people. In addition, there are experienced liars and pathological liars that are so used to lying that they have become immune to the anxiety that haunts the average liar. Therefore, the two vocal hot spots described in this page are meant to be used with an open mind. . . "
