Of RUSH lyrics, I could go on and on. And I do, often enough. Yet another magical song that rocks and soothes and feeds the soul, for me. But first... I happened upon the following comment on a YouTube channel while listening to RUSH via that medium recently. Different song, different person's feedback, but similar …

No One Is Above The Law
Last week an important ruling for Americans from the US Supreme Court. The ruling reenforces a tenet of modern human governance: striving to create a system where all people, ALL PEOPLE, are treated the same before the laws that govern the land. The article that outlines the ruling follows, if you're interested. apple.news/AqDLlZx-LQSu0zDMmMOyOhQ
Spool Up
I love this term. Maybe I like it because it’s sometimes used to reference an aircraft engine warming after being turned on. At least, that’s what’s in my head... : - ) I looked it up, so for all my engineer / machine-thinking friends, I found this, related to “turbo power”: “Turbo spool time is …
Scenes From “Stay-cation” 2020
Doing, Playing, Reading, Playing, More Doing, Being Clearing the yard, phase 1. Good read at the DMV, and anywhere really. Building and creativity. Old-school dinosaur chasing person upstairs. Coffee take-out. America. Ride in pick-up.
I’ll Take It
As it comes, I’ll take it. Easy conversation, I’ll take it. Blue sky, cool breeze, I’ll take it. Light sheen of sweat blankets me, I’ll take. Smoke wafting from the barbecue, I’ll take it.

Why Is It So Hard?
These things we are called to in life, these difficulties thrust before us, why does it have to be so hard? It’s just life. It is what it is. One of those four great truths Buddha identified: “Life is difficult.” In Matthew 10:16, Jesus makes a similar observation as he spells out how his friends …
Weekend Camp Site
Simple. A bit of special effort. And as the advert goes, “Priceless.”
Land’s End, 8 Mile Road
All the way out we drove, to the end, 8 Mile Road, West, Stockton. Me and the kids, Mama was having lunch in town with friend. We snacked in the park first. Watched a couple woodpeckers do their thing. Saw a few blue birds too, these creatures flitting here and there in the midday summer …
Lyrics Post: “Presto”
This song is one of my favorites from what I'd call the "Third Wave" of RUSH's music...at least it feels that way to me. And PRESTO!, more magic, song, lyric, GOOD. "If I could wave my magic wandI'd make everything all right I'm not one to believe in magicBut I sometimes have a second sightI'm …
Bedtime at Fernwood
Quite a ruckus most nights getting ALL to bed. There are the usual night-time chores — putting on pajamas, brushing teeth, getting water bottles filled with ice and water, arranging stuffed animals and blankets — it can sometimes take quite a while. But when we’re done, and the lights go off, relaxation falls over everyone …
