  1. Du hast

    by , 02-15-2008 at 04:25 PM (Barmy Blue's Bland Blog)
    I'm currently listening to a song completely in German, and I don't speak German . The band are called Rammstein and the song, as you may have guessed, is called "Du hast", apparently it means "You have" but I can neither confirm nor deny that. I haven't heard them all but I know I don't like some of their songs, others I can't get out of my head. I only discovered this song today because I was browsing around on Youtube. It all started with me watching bits from Top Gear ...

  2. The Old Stone Tavern

    I wrote elsewhere in this blog of the supposed haunted tavern here in Atkins. I have since done a bit of research and discovered a document that explains the ownership of the building and it's true age.

  4. A couple shares

    One woman, one man
    with hearts so true
    come before you
    to say I do...

    A love so fair
    A dream come true
    A couple shares
    what they are destined to do

    He takes her hand
    to have and to hold
    Their hearts embrace
    and never let go...

    A touch so pure
    A smile so real
    She closes her eyes
    so she may feel

    The love of one man
    The love of her life
    They join ...

  5. My Companion

    I took my dog out this morning to our backyard and she decided she wanted to be silly. We have a small plastic statue of a rabbit so she decided to attack it. She started growling at it and then would grab it by the ears and fling it in the air. She did this several times until she had enough. Then she proceeded to run in and out of the bushes at full speed. It was a funny sight to see. . Then I said "I'm gonna get you" and she ran up and down the length of our yard and almost ...
