                  Well, just to cheer you up, I will admit that I was escorted of the premises by two burly security guards from a major pet shop chain yesterday.(i'm 5ft 1", 2" when I'm exaggerating, and 8 stone. Hardly threatening!) I wasn't protesting or even really complaining. I just took a photo of this little guy. I wanted to buy him, but know from experince that these animals are really ill after their long transportation and often die fairly quickly after you get them home.

   A long, long time ago...
   I can still remember
   How that music used to make me smile.
   And I knew if I had my chance
   That I could make those people dance
   And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while.
   
   But February made me shiver
   With every paper I’d deliver.
   Bad news on the doorstep;
   I couldn’t take one more step.
   
   I can’t remember if I cried
   When I read about his widowed bride,
   But something touched me deep inside
   The day the music died.
   
   So bye-bye, miss american pie.
   Drove my chevy to the levee,
   But the levee was dry.
   And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
   Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
   "this’ll be the day that I die."
   
   Did you write the book of love,
   And do you have faith in God above,
   If the Bible tells you so?
   Do you believe in rock ’n roll,
   Can music save your mortal soul,
   And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
   
   Well, I know that you’re in love with him
   `cause I saw you dancin’ in the gym.
   You both kicked off your shoes.
   Man, I dig those rhythm and blues.
   
   I was a lonely teenage broncin’ buck
   With a pink carnation and a pickup truck,
   But I knew I was out of luck
   The day the music died.
   
   I started singin’,
   "bye-bye, miss american pie."
   Drove my chevy to the levee,
   But the levee was dry.
   Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
   And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
   "this’ll be the day that I die."
   
   Now for ten years we’ve been on our own
   And moss grows fat on a rollin’ stone,
   But that’s not how it used to be.
   When the jester sang for the king and queen,
   In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
   And a voice that came from you and me,
   
   Oh, and while the king was looking down,
   The jester stole his thorny crown.
   The courtroom was adjourned;
   No verdict was returned.
   And while Lennon read a book of Marx,
   The quartet practiced in the park,
   And we sang dirges in the dark
   The day the music died.
   
   We were singing,
   "bye-bye, miss american pie."
   Drove my chevy to the levee,
   But the levee was dry.
   Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
   And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
   "this’ll be the day that I die."
   
   Helter skelter in a summer swelter.
   The birds flew off with a fallout shelter,
   Eight miles high and falling fast.
   It landed foul on the grass.
   The players tried for a forward pass,
   With the jester on the sidelines in a cast.
   
   Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
   While the sergeants played a marching tune.
   We all got up to dance,
   Oh, but we never got the chance!
   `cause the players tried to take the field;
   The marching band refused to yield.
   Do you recall what was revealed
   The day the music died?
   
   We started singing,
   "bye-bye, miss american pie."
   Drove my chevy to the levee,
   But the levee was dry.
   Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
   And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
   "this’ll be the day that I die."
   
   Oh, and there we were all in one place,
   A generation lost in space
   With no time left to start again.
   So come on: jack be nimble, jack be quick!
   Jack flash sat on a candlestick
   Cause fire is the devil’s only friend.
   
   Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
   My hands were clenched in fists of rage.
   No angel born in hell
   Could break that satan’s spell.
   And as the flames climbed high into the night
   To light the sacrificial rite,
   I saw satan laughing with delight
   The day the music died
   
   He was singing,
   "bye-bye, miss american pie."
   Drove my chevy to the levee,
   But the levee was dry.
   Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
   And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
   "this’ll be the day that I die."
   
   I met a girl who sang the blues
   And I asked her for some happy news,
   But she just smiled and turned away.
   I went down to the sacred store
   Where I’d heard the music years before,
   But the man there said the music wouldn’t play.
   
   And in the streets: the children screamed,
   The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed.
   But not a word was spoken;
   The church bells all were broken.
   And the three men I admire most:
   The father, son, and the holy ghost,
   They caught the last train for the coast
   The day the music died.
   
   And they were singing,
   "bye-bye, miss american pie."
   Drove my chevy to the levee,
   But the levee was dry.
   And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
   Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
   "this’ll be the day that I die."
   
   They were singing,
   "bye-bye, miss american pie."
   Drove my chevy to the levee,
   But the levee was dry.
   Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
   Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die."

   Go placidly amidst the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
   
   Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
   
   Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
   
   Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism.
   
   Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.
   
   Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
   
   Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
   
   And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful.
   
   Strive to be happy.
