Prickly City by Scott Stantis for January 12, 2020

Will there come a day when you and I can say

We can fin’lly reach each other?

Will there come a time when we can find the time

To reach out to one another?

We’ve been trav’lin’ in circles such a long, long time,

Try’n’ to say hello,

And we can just let it ride,

But you’re someone that I’d like to get to know.

I’ll meet you halfway, That’s better than no way.

There must be someway to get it together.And if there’s some way I know that some day

We just might work it out forever.

I’ll meet you halfway, That’s better than no way.

Will there come a day when you and I can say

We can fin’lly reach each other?

Will there come a time when we can find the time

To reach out to one another?

Iran has to be careful. They are a bantamweight climbing into the heavyweight ring. That would hurt.

It was rumored that after the first Gulf War, Saudi Arabia wanted to give each of us (every US military participant) $10,000, but the US government said no, we’re not mercenaries. So, instead we got the Kuwaiti Liberation medal from Saudi Arabia.
