  2. Time flies OOPs, I see where Luna already has this one.
  3. Wisdom from Grrampa: Whether a man winds up with a nest egg, or a goose egg, depends a lot on the kind of chick he marries. Trouble in marriage often starts when a man gets so busy earnin' his salt he forgets his sugar. Too many couples marry for better, or for worse, but not for good. When a man marries a woman, they become one; the trouble starts when they try to decide which one. If a man has enough horse sense to treat his wife like a thoroughbred, she'll never turn into an old nag. On anniversaries, the wise husband always forgets the past - but never the present. A foolish husband says to his wife, "Honey, you stick to the washin', ironin', cookin' and scrubbin'. No wife of mine's gonna 'work'." Many girls like to marry a military man - he can cook, sew, and make beds, is in good health, and already used to taking orders. Eventually you reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it. Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved. You know you are getting old, when everything either dries up or leaks. Old age is when former classmates are so gray and wrinkled and bald, they don't recognize you.
  4. Finger Poppin Time - Hank Ballard & the Midnighters
  5. Hello Mary Lou - The Everley Brothers I promise no more Johnny Ace comments from me after this one 😊 (In November 1954, Ace ranked No. 16 on the Billboard 1954 Disk Jockey Poll for R&B Favorite Artists.[11] In December 1954, he was named the Most Programmed Artist of 1954, according to the results of a national poll of disc jockeys conducted by the U.S. trade weekly Cash Box.[12] Ace's recordings sold very well during those times. Early in 1955, Duke Records announced that three of his 1954 recordings, along with Thornton's "Hound Dog", had sold more than 1,750,000 copies. "Pledging My Love"[18] was a posthumous R&B number 1 hit for ten weeks beginning February 12, 1955. As Billboard bluntly put it, Ace's death "created one of the biggest demands for a record that has occurred since the death of Hank Williams just over two years ago."[ "Pledging My Love" was used in the 1973 film Mean Streets, directed by Martin Scorsese; the 1983 film Christine, directed by John Carpenter; the 1985 film Back to the Future, directed by Robert Zemeckis; and the 1992 film Bad Lieutenant, directed by Abel Ferrara. The Teen Queens' song "Eddie My Love", originally entitled "Johnny My Love", was written in memory of Ace.)
  6. Hello Darlin' - Conway Twitty (A number of artists recorded the song including Elvis Presley and Teresa Brewer. Johnny Ace though was the original singer of the song, and the best. There is a tragic story of Johnny Ace.)
  7. Melanie of "Brand New Key" fame at age 76.
