‘Finding Moon’
Tony Hillerman
[1995 / Harper Collins]
started reading alongside a re-watch of ‘Apocalypse Now’ and my first time ever watch of ‘Full Metal Jacket’.
sheesh...
‘Moonwalker’
Michael Jackson
[1988 / Warner Bros.]
vivid memories of watching and re-watching this on VHS.
outro performance by Ladysmith Black Mambazo’s is really special.

Jesse’s Roadside Rescue – Portland, Oregonas if the charm and serendipity of our cat enthusiast roadside mechanic wasn’t enough… he had a feline assistant riding shotgun!
Ed, Sam, and i stood and watched as this cat walked herself from her post in the passenger seat through the driver side window, over the side mirror, onto the hood over the family crest – the nerve!
there’s more:
we three continued to watch tickled (and, gotta admit sorta terrified) as Jesse made a brief parade loop around the Comfort Inn parking lot with Pixie perched – fearless and confident – on the hood-top
excuse me…
what is going on here?!
this really happened!
no foolin’!

‘Amor Prohibido’ – Selena (2015/Capitol Latin)
(“Donde Quiera Que Estes” is so 90’s “industry hit” it hurts…)
Con unas ansias locas
Quiero verte hoy
Espero ese momento
En que escuche tu voz
Y cuando al fin
Estemos juntos los dos
Que importa que diran
Tu padre y tu mama
Aqui solo importa nuesto amor
Te quiero
Amor prohibido murmuran por las calles
Porque somos de distintas sociedades
Amor prohibido nos dice todo el mundo
El dinero no importa en ti ni en mi
Ni en el corazon oh, oh baby
Aunque soy pobre
Todo esto que te doy
Vale mas que el dinero
Porque si es amor
Y cuando al fin
Estemos juntos los dos
Que importa que dira
Tambien la sociedad
Aqui solo importa nuestro amor
Te quiero
Amor prohibido murmuran por las calles
Porque somos de distintas sociedades
Amor prohibido nos dice todo el mundo
El dinero no importa en ti ni en mi
Ni en el corazon oh, oh baby
Amor prohibido murmuran por las calles
Porque somos de distintas sociedades
Amor prohibido nos dice todo el mundo
El dinero no importa en ti ni en mi
Ni en el corazon oh, oh baby
Amor prohibido murmuran por las calles
Porque somos de distintas sociedades
Amor prohibido nos dice todo el mundo
El dinero no importa en ti ni en mi
Ni en el corazon oh, oh baby
El dinero no importa en ti ni en mi
Ni en el corazon oh
El dinero no importa en ti ni en mi
Solo el nuestro amor
Tengo una foto de ti
Oh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Que beso cada noche antes de dormir
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Está media rota y ya se está borrando
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Por tantas lágrimas que estoy derramando
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Y es todo lo que me queda de tu amor
Solo
Fotos y recuerdos
Tengo un recuerdo de ti
Oh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Que siempre me hace tan feliz
Oh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh, oh
En aquella fiesta en que te conocí
Oh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Ese tímido beso que te di
Oh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Es todo lo que me queda de tu amor
Solo

‘Entre A Mi Mundo’ – Selena (2015/Capitol Latin) photography by Al Rendon
that picture… sheesh!
Yo sé que tienes un nuevo amor
Sin embargo, te deseo lo mejor
Si en mí encontraste felicidad
Tal vez, alguien más te la dará
Como la flor con tanto amor
Me diste tú, se marchitó
Me marcho hoy, yo sé perder
Pero, ah-ah-ay, ¡cómo me duele!
Ah-ah-ay, ¡cómo me duele!
Si vieras cómo duele perder tu amor
Con tu adiós te llevas mi corazón
No sé si pueda volver a amar
Porque te di todo el amor que pude dar
Como la flor con tanto amor
Me diste tú, se marchitó
Me marcho hoy, yo sé perder
Pero, ah-ah-ay, ¡cómo me duele!
Ah-ah-ay, ¡cómo me duele!
Como la flor con tanto amor
Me diste tú, se marchitó
Me marcho hoy, yo sé perder
Pero, ah-ah-ay, ¡cómo me duele!
Ah-ah-ay, ¡cómo me duele!
Ah-ah-ay, ¡cómo me duele!
