Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
One of our aircraft was missing
We thought it was in enemy hands
The pilot kept us all gissing
Then back on a thread he lands.
Nice to hear from you Spitty me lad, what’s this going AWOL without filling in form 634? I’ll overlook it this once.
The space thing is in the news again.
Heading for Mars are we now, they may as well dream on their feet as in bed.
The reason they haven’t colonised Mars yet Pug (besides running out of little green guys to show them the ropes) is because they haven’t been able to put a station on the moon yet never mind a colony. do you not find it strange that they haven’t sent a human outside orbiting distance in nearly 50 years?
I don’t believe they ever went to the moon in the first place, at a time when they were being left way behind in the space race and at the height of the cold war, something spectacular had to be pulled from the hat and quickly, enter a good Hollywood director. (See the controversial film “Capricorn One”)
I was in my prime then and remember those tense times well, why should I believe they landed there just because it was on TV and 70% of the world population believes it now? 30% is a minority I know but it is a big minority of which I'm one of. On TV I saw horrible shaky grainy black white and grey pictures, sure they hadn’t even got TV right back then.
We wos all conned big time man, wasn’t the first time the masses were fooled for political reasons and it won’t be the last, and it’s becoming more obvious as the years go by. I say open up a completely independent inquiry now before everyone associated with the whole con job is dead, but maybe that’s what they want to happen, too many old heads would go a rollin’ and dead men tell no tales. I’m not and never have been a Moony, although I had a few pints in Mooney’s of Parnell Street once.
And now who remembers Rosemary Clooney?
The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see
For the moon refused to shine
Couple sitting underneath the willow tree
For love, they pined
Little May was kinda 'fraid of darkness
So she says "I guess I'll go."
Boy began to sigh, looked up to the sky
Told the sky his little tale of woe
So shine on
Shine on harvest moon
Up in the sky
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June or July.
