Burt Bacharach, Hal David, and the divine Dionne Warwick circa 1963 and onward.
I won’t say a little prayer for that woke store.
The smoothness of Dionne’s voice with the subtle tremolo as she sings the line “walk on by” is just … sumptuous. So smooth … note perfect!
She is very under-rated IMO. Check her songs. Bacharach/David/Warwick very prominent. They knew talent.
What I said
I was infatuated with sultry Dionne while still wearing cowboy and indian flannel pajamas watching her on the Ed Sullivan show and waiting for Bonanza on a given Sunday night in those halcyon days.
Excuse my nostalgia, which is actually pining for better times.
All gone.
Nostalgia for those moments of nirvana that we could never imagine would slip away as far as they have … Never a bad time to recall those days.
I held my flannel cowboy and Indian pajamas up with my Fanner 50 gun belt. Man, I wish I still had that toy. But it was well-used, on Saturdays, when my 5yo self and neighborhood buddies would run wild and free with no supervision or worries across the rolling hills of poppies in the outermost Sacramento suburbs.
ah jeez s giving me flashbacks.
l only saw Bonanza if my parents didnt notice me.
then my pa knocked an unused chimney out left a hole in the floor so l held a mirror and watched the program backwards from 2nd floor bedroom lol.
l just lived 22 years 9 1/2 blocks from where l grew up and got pushed out one night.
jeepers storeowner, l wuz needing some ice fo ma drink
l’d pay anyt’ing buuuuuut youse gots nun. buy buy, erm, bye bye
Useful Idiot Candy Store.
Just like some lib faces scream “punch me”, that window screams “break me”.
It’s what Antifa would do.
(NB: these are the new rules, etc. )

I’d ask fckhole about ILLEGAL immigrants but he’d say something genuinely liberal (stupid) in response.
And then I’d break his window and then take a shit on his Old Orchard Beach.
Sounds like something ANTIFA would do…
Exactly.
Thanks for paying attention.
If I owned a candy store my sign would read “All are welcome”. If I saw this sign in a store I would “walk on by”.
I’m going in that store.
Every Thursday.
About two hours after I eat a burrito with both the red and green sauce.
With extra beans.
And sour cream.
Sure hope someone dumps on their doorstep.
Walk in with a sleeping bag. Spread it out. Ask for a pillow and dinner.
Boothbay Harbor’s main clientele come up from NYC and Boston. The town, itself, is one of those artsy locales. Everyone’s an artist and gay. Sort of like New Hope in Pennsylvania. Consider it an outlier, because it is. I strongly recommend avoiding it, and heading over to Freeport instead. Great deals and more sociable people at the LL Bean Store.
All that being said, Maine is filled with strange people. And, I’m not talking about politics. They’re just weird.
In Boothbay Harbor, the leather shop on the corner is a solid Trump voter.
Maine is run by lesbians from Boston.
No problem with a business telling me they don’t want my business.
Yes, and telling his neighbours that he really deserves that first in the face they’ve been holding off on is probably a public service.
Well naturally I would wonder what kind of candy they were advertising the unavailability of and what an earth an Immigrant Candy might be.
Why would a candy store advertise their shortage of “Kings” and “Ice” whatever those products might be?
Stupid Liberals.
Sad evidence that cloth masks, which are again becoming popular, do not prevent transmission of SVV, the shithead victim virus.
My musical response …

No problem,
No money!
