May 10, 2010 my RCA (right coronary artery) was blocked and I experienced a heart attack two days before my 49th birthday. Now I can add CAD to my list of living with diseases. Life is to short, it's time to live it. Sharing my escapades and life lessons.

Karaoke @ JJ Rafferty's after Thanks Giving

The Takia Fredward Show.  Rafferty's was rather empty Friday, November, 26, 2010.  John, the Karaoke DJ thought it was due to the shopping frenzy and people not wanting to stop.  Everyone looks for the deals on "Black Friday".  Who coined that phrase?  In my opinion; the pushing, shoving, trampling, and false advertising isn't worth forsaking one's sanity just to get a deal.  I'm just saying.

Four songs each due to the limited patronage at Raffs and we debuted new material.  The lighting was darker than usual but the vocals could be heard without a lot of background noise.

Garry

Continued from October 12, 2010

We spent the rest of the evening getting to know one another.  What an unlikely pair to be so engrossed in the corner of a bar; an African American and a Skinhead.  Yes!  I said a skinhead with a swastika patch, confederate flag, bomber jacket, bald head, tattoos, and combat boots.  That is why I don’t judge on appearances, les I be judged.  He does not fit the stereotype.  In fact he is rather sweet and a self proclaimed “good skinhead”.  The opposing attraction was magnetic and the cousins noticed it at Rafferty’s.  My girls are very observant and could tell I was beside myself.  It’s difficult for me to hide my emotions when I’m enthralled with someone from my heart.

Well, I’ve said it and he will probably read it.  Garry shouldn’t be surprised since I have not hidden my feelings towards him.  The most I can hope for is a wonderful friendship and that will have to suffice.  Good friends are hard to find and I think I have found one in Garry.
