Point em down hill you..

Point em down hill you..

Dreary January days require some motivation. Our friend, Billy Mac, always gave us words of encouragement. Whether he was on the ski slopes, chasing little white balls over hill and dale(and some times even in the fairway), or inn sitting for us when Mary and I needed a night off. To Billy Mac the future always would be brighter. "How bad can it be"... "Point em down hill you chickensh@t".

I was listening to some internet radio channel this morning, and one of Freddie Mercury's last songs from the rock band Queen came on. I thought the lyrics to "The Show Must Go On" was appropriate in so many ways for today...

Empty spaces - what are we living for?
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score
On and on!
Does anybody know what we are looking for?

Another hero - another mindless crime.
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime.
Hold the line!
Does anybody want to take it anymore?

The Show must go on!
The Show must go on!Yeah!

Inside my heart is breaking,
My make-up may be flaking,
But my smile, still, stays on!

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance.
Another heartache - another failed romance.
On and on...
Does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess i'm learning
I must be warmer now..
I'll soon be turning, round the corner now.
Outside the dawn is breaking,
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free!

The Show must go on!
The Show must go on! Yeah,yeah!

Ooh! Inside my heart is breaking!
My make-up may be flaking...
But my smile, still, stays on!
Yeah! oh oh oh

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies,
Fairy tales of yesterday, will grow but never die,
I can fly, my friends!

The Show must go on! Yeah!
The Show must go on!

I'll face it with a grin!
I'm never giving in!
On with the show!

I'll top the bill!
I'll overkill!
I have to find the will to carry on!
On with the,
On with the show!

The Show must go on.

Billy Mac passed away last Thursday after a long illness. He was one of the good guys. He will be sorely missed..

Where ever you are.. "How bad can it be???"

Let it snow!
