: : Yes, it was dear and beoved BJ! Oh my god, I was dying, I could not remember his name! And to think that I fell in love with him while he was singing this song on TV... my 2nd week in America, Mama sitting right next to me and laughing at my getting all red faced an starry eyed!
: : Thank you!!!!!!!

: : : I'm sooooooooooooo much younger than the Aquarius crowd but my art teacher sang this over & over & over - I guess he liked it.

: : : B.J. Thomas -
: : : Raindrops keep falling on my head
: : : And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
: : : Nothin' seems to fit
: : : Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
: : : So I just did me some talkin' to the sun
: : : And I said I didn't like the way he' got things done
: : : Sleepin' on the job
: : : Those raindrops are falling on my, head they keep falling
: : : But there's one thing I know
: : : The blues he sends to meet me won't defeat me
: : : It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me
: : : Raindrops keep falling on my head
: : : But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
: : : Crying's not for me
: : : Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
: : : Because I'm free
: : : Nothing's worrying me.
: Why Rich and Vita, you've brought some tears of joy to my eyes. B.J.'s song was my mom's favorite, and one of my earliest memories is listening to this very song with her in our living room. Living in a house with a thousand memories, this one is sweet. Thank you.

Hi TGAT And Christina!
Yup, the song went entirely into the book now... I shall give BJ full credit of course, and I will publish it like that ... and if finding a needle i nthe haystack, someone finds it smacks me over the head re. publishing it... well, then I'll take it off... but if not...
Hey, Christina, OK, you will be one of the first to get this novel from me, OK? Publication date Novemeber 10, my birthday. Just remember to donate $16 to Ariel!!!!
My bck is hurting somethiing fierce, I got to stop writing, but now that ole BJ is with us, I can go to bed and dream sweet dreams beneath the Dream Catcher the Canadian Trader sent to me....
Good night, LOTMers!!!!!
Your faithful TC
