Damaged People

                                     Sorry but I've run into a glitch and can't find the disc to connect this
                                      computer to my scanner. I have to scan the pages of Damaged People.
                                     I'll try to find this damn disc and get back to this as soon as possible.
                                     That's what's great about this not being in real time.
                                     Fuck ups like this don't matter .


I found another portion I had printed , it's out of sequence and not finished but I'll get it up here and then I can shred my hard copy.
My computer crashing shows me the importance of having this stuff somewhere else just in case even if it's all out of whack right now.
I'll clean it up later.
I put some video's on here for setting the mood.
I talk about music a lot because I listen to music a lot.
Did you see Madonna at the Super Bowl last night ?
She rocked the place , I was happy to see she didn't do something trashy to give the haters something to hang on. Those were some kick ass boots she had on.
I don't agree with her life style but she doesn't have to have my approval , she gives me what I want , music.
Everything else is her business.
She made a tasteless book , so what I didn't look at it.
She gave one of the best halftime shows I've ever seen and I've seen a lot.
You go girl.
I know I'll have to dig out The immaculate Collection today.

Onto our story , we pick up with Keanu going to see Amelie's ex husband Mike , not his real name , to try and get an idea of what's going on in his life.
He's not really sure why he's there but he needs to meet the man she spent most of her life with.
Here's a collection of the music referenced throughout this portion of the story.
You don't have to listen to read the text but if you listen to the music after you've read it it may make the text more enjoyable. I couldn't find " Making me wait " by Chris Cagle on youtube so if you're interested you'll have to go to Pandora. I've got the cd's because well , you know the touch thing.
I started thinking about how they have a soundtrack for movies , well why not for books ?
If your so inclined , or are bored out of your mind and have nothing better to do kick back , light it if you've got it , pop a beer and come with me into the magical world that is music and the story it tells.
Oh yeah and some more Damaged People.
Are you damaged too ?
Get in line.



Right now this is Keanu's state of mind


This is Mike's state of mind




These are the songs Mike marked on the cd he wanted Keanu to give to Amelie.







This is the song Amelie had Mike listen to that he only heard the chorus and would sing that to her not knowing what the rest of the song was.


This is the Brooks & Dunn song Mike told Keanu to listen to



On the drive back to Ohio Keanu listened to some of the music and these reminded him of her so much he couldn't believe it


Keanu was curious about the reference Mike had made about not being able to reach her anymore

So if you're into a certain lady the way to her heart is to listen to the music and be able to sing her the song , sway dancing barefoot in the sand holding each other while the tide sinks your feet deeper and deeper until you have to hold each other tight to keep from falling , falling ...
Cuz the chicks dig it.




Cheers , Amelie
