Nobody Flashes Andrea Bocelli, Natalie Cole-The Christmas Song
Nobody Flashes.
I was driving home tonight, from the local grocery store, and was listening to Christmas music on the radio. And all of a sudden, the emotions hit me: I couldn’t find any pumpkin pie mix. The shelves were all bought out. It’s the BEST thing that I cook, there you go. Failure.
Okay, my fault. I should have gone out before Thanksgiving. Who knows when they can get more?
“I’ll be home for Christmas” started playing on the radio. That just made things worse, because they guy kept singing “We’ll muddle through somehoooooowwwww!” Visions of Judy Garland singing to the sad little sister in “Meet me in St. Louis” came to mind. And…
Ain’t that the truth I thought.
And then I pulled down my neighborhood street. Christmas lights were up everywhere. People that had NEVER put-up decorations, had gone overboard with Christmas lights, Angels, balloons, Wreaths.
WAIT! What’s this? A sudden burst of Holiday spirit? Cool!
Tonight, I made the pies from an old can I found in the closet. (Uh…how long is canned pumpkin good for?)
The pies are done. Tomorrow I’ll find out. Pumpkin pie makes a great breakfast because tomorrow, we will be putting up OUR lights. Either that, or I’ll die of botulism.
Anyway…, nobody sings Christmas songs better than Natalie Cole, which is a talent passed down by her famous dad.
It’s a beautiful rendition, truly made my night. Hope it makes yours.
So ….enjoy!

About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
