Shouts . . .
. . . in the street
I hear them as I'm walking home
Shoes on my feet
Touch down and take off as I roam
Dreams lifted up
So many pies in the sky
U-flying-o's
I duck them as they fly on by
Tomorrow takes care of itself
Today has its trial and its call
Janus he waits at your door
Rising or breaking his fall
You've got your "Time"
And secrets that love has betrayed
The long yellow line down your spine
That your feeling has frayed
Take my hand we may see
Everything we mean to be
When we meet again
Should it be under blanket of night?
All that remains
Is the matter of choice in disguise
Deep in the heart
Where paradox finds its resolve
Long bodies live
They've learned how to bend to absolve
Take my hand we may see
Everything we mean to be
Am I with you or you with me?
We have our time then take our leave
Now desire is the tie
That holds us fast to life
For the sweetness of the honey
Risk the peril of the hive
Now I'm running through your veins
In exchange I know your pain
All the lies have run aground
And to this earth I'm bound
Shouts in the street
I hear them as I'm walking home
Shoes on my feet
Touch down and take off as I roam
Take my hand we may see
Everything we mean to be
Am I with you or you with me?
We have our time then take our leave
Shouts In The Street
[Recorded 9/21/2014 at Elk Run Vineyards, Mt. Airy, MD, performed by OHO - Jay Graboski, David Reeve and Ray Jozwiak]

Game Changing . . .
(from http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/opinion/editorial/bs-ed-senate-gop-20141014-story.html, What A GOP Senate Would Mean)
“. . . That said, it would be a mistake to assume that a Republican-held Senate would not be able to assert its will on public policy in a meaningful way. It might not be able to pass game-changing legislation high on the GOP wish list — a complete dismantling of the Affordable Care Act, for instance — but it might be able to nibble at the edges or put vulnerable Democrats on the spot. In the case of Obamacare, the targets are clear — go after the tax on medical devices, the employer mandate or other unpopular elements in the program. The strategy would be to weaken Obamacare, put it deeply in the red or make it so dysfunctional that eventually a repeal would seem like an act of euthanasia. . .”
This is what our ‘lawmakers’ do - destroy what the OTHER SIDE has done instead of helping their constituents. Wouldn’t it make more sense to ‘fix’ the unpopular elements in the program
to make that program work better to provide affordable healthcare to the population?

MORE???!!! . . .
. . . about the showcase . . .
This Monday evening, Oct 20, we are delighted to welcome, all the way from Nashville, BUDDY MONDLOCK! Buddy is a SONGWRITER – his songs have been recorded by people like Guy Clark, Nanci Griffith, Janis Ian, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, Garth Brooks, David Wilcox and more… He has co-written with Janis Ian, Garth Brooks, and others. He co-wrote and played and sang on an album with Art Garfunkel and Maia Sharp. He is a Kerrville New Folk winner, and also has a Kerrville award for Song of the Year… What does all this tell you? He is an A-List touring singer-songwriter and we are lucky to have him drop by to feature for us on Monday! This is a show you do not want to miss! When people whose names you recognize record someone’s songs, and they are songwriters themselves, it usually means the songs are EXCEPTIONAL! They are! Come and listen! www.buddymondlock.com
The piano prelude this week is from ROCKIN’ RAY JOZWIAK, who for many years has visited us every month to demonstrate how to get out of corners he seems to have painted himself into. Just when you think he has finally trapped himself – a deft flurry of the cape and he has escaped again! If you have never heard Ray before, he has often been compared to Keith Jarrett. He is also part of our ad hoc house band at the end of the evening, when he lets his rock’n’roll out… Come early to be sure of good seats (don't forget we start at 7:15 pm now); you may come up after 7:00 pm so long as Katherine is ready, and performers may come upstairs as soon as they arrive.
Three-song cameos this week are from REID SCHOENFELDER, whose rock background occasionally pokes through his excellent singer-songwriter material, show promoter and Alt-Country/Americana fiend DOMENIC CICALA, and Todd’s Pick this week, BRIAN KEITH. As usual, poet JOHN HOLLY will be reciting a couple of poems and I'll throw in a poem and some songs later on. TOMY WRIGHT was supposed to be with us this week but was unfortunately called away again, so we hope he'll be able to make it next week.
MISTER RON GOAD will be filling the drum and percussion chair as usual, so performers please feel free to call on him. He is beautifully trained and extremely intuitive, so he won't trample all over your songs – well, he usually doesn't, anyway. Please don't say the word “Toad” when asking him to play, or you may have to wait 11 minutes before you can continue…

Accept . . .
The Vatican is finally admitting that a group they formerly chose to strongly repress now has "gifts and qualities to offer". A newly released document asked if Catholicism could accept gays and recognize positive aspects of same-sex couples. Church conservatives called it a betrayal of traditional family values, you know, those VALUES that require repression of SOME group of individuals that they barely know and absolutely do NOT understand.
John Smeaton, co-founder of the conservative group Voice of the Family, said: "Those who are controlling the synod have betrayed Catholic parents worldwide." He failed to explain precisely how they accomplished that or how any of this relates to parents or children. He called it "one of the worst official documents drafted in Church history".
He conveniently forgot about the documents that denounced contraceptives, premarital sex, masturbation, abortion, artificial insemination, voluntary sterilization, lifelong celibacy for priests, nuns, and monks – and all others who never marry. Occasionally, the Church even shows signs of its old opposition to “bad thoughts” about sex (i.e., thoughts associating sex with pleasure), and to marital acts of sexual intercourse engaged in for pleasure rather than procreation. As recently as Pope John Paul II, husbands were urged “not to commit adultery with their wives by desiring sex for its mere pleasure and the satisfaction of instinct”
Hopefully the Catholic church will continue this evolution toward the proper direction and stop marginalizing those who are DIFFERENT from them, or formerly marginalized in an age of ignorance or pre-scientific knowledge.
