Um …
Born down in a dead man’s town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
End up like a dog that’s been beat too much
'Til you spend half your life just covering up

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man said “son if it was up to me”
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said “son, don’t you understand”

I had a brother at Khe Sanh fighting off the Viet Cong
They’re still there, he’s all gone
He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I’m ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run ain’t got nowhere to go

Generational thing I guess, I ETSed in 72 and know some names on the DC wall.

(would have just said “the wall” except that, having served in Berlin …)

I have a small piece of that. They were selling tiny pieces by the bushels.

The best thing about Born in the USA is everyone uses it as a patriotic song and it is really a protest song about what the USA had become in the 70s and 80s.

Took a walk to the corner store
Just to buy a loaf of bread and a box of s’mores
Up pulled a guy in a yellow van
Shiny gold badge flashing in his hand

He said, alright all you mojados down here
I want you all to hit the floor
I got one thing to ask you and nothing more
So answer in English, if you can
Where were ya born, man

Huh? Where was I born?

That’s right, I said
Where were ya born?

Hey, are you one of those dudes who do horoscopes, man
Hey, I’m a Cancer with a bad moon rising

Look here el fago, watch my lips
Where were ya born?

I was BORN IN EAST L.A.
Man, I was BORN IN EAST L.A.

Oh yeah, you were BORN IN EAST L.A.
Let’s see your green card

Huh? Green card?
I’m from East LA

Alright, then who’s President of the United States

Oh, that’s easy, man
That guy that used to be on Death Valley Days, John Wayne

Alright, let’s go, come on

Next thing I know, I’m in a foreign land
People talkin so fast, I couldn’t understand
There was nobody there to lend a helping hand
I was cold, it was dark where is a burger stand

I want to go back to East LA
I wish I was back in East LA
I don’t belong here in downtown T.J.
Cause I was born in East LA, ole

I crawled under barbed wire, swam across a stream
Rode in six different trucks packed like a sardine
Walked all day in the burning sun
Now I know what it’s like to be born to run

Up ahead was the promised land
Shining like a star just beyond my hand
All I could see was a golden door
I looked up, a sign said five billion sold

And I was back in East LA
Yes, I was back in East LA
You know I’m never gonna stray
Cause I was born in East LA, oh LA

EAST LA!

It’s going to take forever to get the Bee mount. My eyes will give out from searching for little jellies on the ground. :honeybee:

Did they change the sound of Hogrus when you mount up? He seems unusually squealy. And I am now a Veteran of the Fourth War.

Interesting. Just got disconnected saying I had an inactive sub. Went to the transaction history and it said complete. Closed the bnet launcher and re opened it and I was fine. Logged in no problem. Weird. Oh well.

You all might enjoy this, my youngest son (who turns 6 in a couple weeks) got to pick the family theme for Halloween this year. He chose wrestlers. Just got notification the last costume is being shipped.

Macho Man - Me
Miss Elisabeth - The Mrs.
Sting (crow version)- my 14 year old
Ultimate Warrior - my 11 year old
Hulk Hogan - My soon to be 6 year old
John Cena - The only daughter (and she turns 4 this year).

And yes, I am including ages just to help a few folks few a bit older.

I got a bit of a shock when I went to update my add-ons and Malwarebytes told me the Twitch agent was malware. All I saw at first was the alert and that was scary. The update to Malwarebytes seems to have stopped flagging it as such.

the fact that you and your waifu are going out as Macho Man Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth respectively, makes me wish i had more likes to give you.

for now, i’m just waiting for a few addons to be updated for 8.2.5 before downloading and installing them.

Been a crazy day for me. Had to take my Dad to the ER because he went into respiratory arrest and was convulsing. Just home long enough to get something to eat, then I’ll be heading back to the ER for the night. He’s doing well right now, but they are gonna keep him a few days.

He’s in the best place he can be right now. They’ll check for fluid and whatever else needs to be done. Make sure not to forget self care during this. It’s easy to do, and he needs you at 100%

Got you in my thoughts. Good luck and blessed be.
