jewelry making supplies
countrygirlgardenerFebruary 16, 2013
Hi everyone!
I've been looking for a supplier that carries the blank cup findings (for bracelets, necklaces, and earrings) to make jewelry similar to Silpada. I was wondering if anyone knew of a company that carries these items? Than you!
Fire Mountain Gems is usually the first place to start, they're doing more and more 'jewelry fabrication' stuff every time a new catalog comes out.
is also a pretty good resource.

Retailers likely will swallow the extra costs rather than passing them onto consumers, which will compress their...

The Safe and Accountable Rail Act proposes amendments to the Canada Transportation Act and Railway Safety Act. Changes include a new liability and compensation regime for federally regulated railroads, including minimum insurance requirements, a compensation fund financed ...
Small businesses remain at risk from West Coast ports disruption
Monday, February 23, 2015
Up until the last minute before Friday's labor settlement at West Coast ports, shippers were publicly decrying being pawns in an economic struggle between dockworkers and management. Many face continued hardship because the cargo backlog is so severe that it will take weeks, and in some cases months, for ports and inland transport providers to work it off, experts say. With a tentative agreement in place, the International Longshore and Warehouse Union is expected to call off th...
AAPA's focus on connections
Saturday, February 21, 2015
Increased funding for ports—not just for marine terminals themselves, but connections via water and land—continue to be a key focus for the American Association of Port Authorities. In January, AAPA held a roundtable in the Port of Long Beach to draw the media's attention to what it believes is a need to boost support for the country's freight infrastructure. "With manufacturers, policy makers, and innovators striving to boost the economy and create jobs as gl...
The perils of deadline bargaining
Saturday, February 21, 2015
The protracted and contentious collective bargaining for a new dockworkers' contract on the West Coast has caused economic damage for businesses that depend on ocean transport and raised questions about whether there is a better way to conduct negotiations. As of press time, the International Longshore and Warehouse Union and Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) were hardening their positions even as importers and exporters pleaded for a resolution to end severe cargo delays that ...

Say, $50 for a 60GB drive (more than the fitPC's 40). $40 for a picoPSU; $30 for a AC adapter. Buy a crap case for $30 if you don't have one you can use already. Install a gigabit NIC for under $20 (dunno if there are any cheap dual-interface gigabit NICs.) That's under $310, and quite a bit more bang for the buck. It probably won't be 5w, but it'll be well under 20w given that board seems to use about 10w.

Let's see what this is all about.
Well, I had no plans to see the movie, but now that I've read the book, I'm curious. This book seems to be the basis for many of the action movie tropes we've grown accustomed too.
The only way I can describe it is a marriage between Gulliver's Travels, Star Wars and Gladiator. It's easy to assume that Lucas lifted a lot of material from this story. The near misses and accolades, not to mention the prose is very much Gulliver's Travels. And as for Gladiator, well...that movie seems to be based entirely on this book.
I gave it the old college try, I really did. It was just so godawful..
I only hope the film can live up to it. Classic fantasy fiction. Never a dull moment. Loved it.
Not very good. I'll give the author a break because it was his first novel, but it lacked the quirky charm of the Tarzan books that I've read. I'll probably read the next in the series and see if I like it any better.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0345331389, Mass Market Paperback)Although Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) is justifiably famous as the creator of Tarzan of the Apes, that uprooted Englishman was not his only popular hero. Burroughs's first sale (in 1912) was A Princess of Mars, opening the floodgates to one of the must successful--and prolific--literary careers in history. This is a wonderful scientific romance that perhaps can be best described as early science fiction melded with an epic dose of romantic adventure. A Princess of Mars is the first adventure of John Carter, a Civil War veteran who unexpectedly find himself transplanted to the planet Mars. Yet this red planet is far more than a dusty, barren place; it's a fantasy world populated with giant green barbarians, beautiful maidens in distress, and weird flora and monstrous fauna the likes of which could only exist in the author's boundless imagination. Sheer escapism of the tallest order, the Martian novels are perfect entertainment for those who find Tarzan's fantastic adventures aren't, well, fantastic enough. Although this novel can stand alone, there are a total of 11 volumes in this classic series of otherworldly, swashbuckling adventure. --Stanley Wiater
(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:27:39 -0400)
Let the adventures begin, as Captain John Carter finds himself transported to the alien landscape of Mars--where the low gravity increases his speed and strength exponentially. Taken prisoner by Martian warriors, he impresses them with his remarkable fighting skills, and quickly rises to a high-ranking chieftain. But the heroic Carter's powers thrust him right in the middle of a deadly war raging across the planet--and a dangerous romance with a divine princess.… (more)

Cleaning black granite?
I am trying different cleaners on my kitchen black granite and does anyone feel they have just the perfect one? I am just trying to eliminate smudges and prints.
Some cleaners are leaving a smear.
Thank you for any replies.
I use a tiny bit of dishwashing suds to clean mine, more suds if it's around the cooktop and it's greasy; then I follow with a water only wet cloth; I might even wipe it down with a dry cloth to finish it off and remove all traces.
Seems like a long process but it's not, the trick is in using multiple cloths,
I have 2 dozen and throw the used ones on the washer, do a load every 2 days.
I use a mixture of 50% water and 50% rubbing alcohol on my Impala Black granite and it works like a charm.
I just use a wet dishcloth, I'm normally cleaning the counter after doing dishes anyway so this is easy to do. If there's a greasy spot or splatters I make sure my cloth is soapy. Then wipe dry with a microfiber cloth, that's what gets rid of the smudges and stuff. You don't need any special cleaners.
Polished Absolute Black Premium counters here! (Love them!)
The secret is how you wipe/dry your counters...dry/wipe in a circular motion, not back-and-forth in a straight line.
Personally, I use Method's Daily Granite Cleaner with a microfiber cloth when I want my counters looking "pristine" and shiny. For everyday use, though, I just use a "soapy" dish cloth and either let it air-dry or dry w/a regular dish towel. Yes, there are sometimes streaks, but I don't care for everyday use, as long as it's clean. Oh, if you use too much detergent you will get a haze unless you rinse it off...so, go easy on the detergent!
I do keep meaning to try the 50/50 alcohol/water mix Jodi mentioned, but I keep forgetting about it until one of these threads is started!
BTW...have you seen this thread? http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/kitchbath/msg0205202526767.html (It's also linked in the "Read Me" thread.)
Here is a link that might be useful: Read Me If You're New To GW Kitchens!
Alcohol and water mixture here as well. I just started using this to clean my (black) granite (and SS appliances and sink, and the burner pans on my Wolf range--best kitchen spray ever!), and I swear our granite looks better than ever (nice shine!).
I add some lavendar essential oil to my mixture (which is somewhere between 30-50% alcohol to water). The lavendar oil, in addition to smelling nice (!), has anti-bacterial properties as well.
I have polished black granite and second what Buehl said about Method Daily Granite cleaner and microfiber cloth. Anything else I've tried leaves streaks. I use this stuff daily after each kitchen use, if needed. But then again, I'm a self-proclaimed obsessive countertop wiper....just love it when they're shiny!!
To all, I would be cautious with the alcohol, especially if it is a resin treated stone (like Black Absolute) Alcohol works great because it evaporates very quickly but long term it will break-down the resin.
Other cleaners to look out for are those that use coconut oil. I have seen lighter colored stones like Kashmir white and Shivakashi darken from oil penetration.
Method and SCI Counteriffic are at the top of my list.
caayu--even if you wipe right after spraying? Does enough really penetrate over time to cause a problem? (not asking to be snarky, really just wondering) Would the problem only be with rein treated stone?
I tried Counteriffic when we first had our Labrador Golden Flake granite installed--didn't like it much (found it to leave the counters smeary unless they were wiped with a perfectly dry microfiber--impossible to keep it dry for each subsequent section of counter after the first section was wiped).
I do like SCI's Marbalex for washing my tile floors though (stone and porcelain).
I had been using Perfect Kitchen (from BB&B) on our coutners, and liked that a lot, but I find the alcohol and water really does the best job at leaving the granite smear-free, and shiny.
Wondering if any long-term users of alcohol-water would chime-in re: their experience; e.g. any issues with your granite from using alcohol-water? Thanks!

Lamps & Fixtures in the Field
Stairway to Savings
t the Minneapolis Public Housing Authority's redesigned senior high-rise apartment in Minneapolis, energy savings were achieved one step at a time. Davis & Associates, Eden Prairie, MN, outfitted all public spaces in the 210,000-sq ft building with LED luminaires from Lithonia Lighting. But perhaps the most unusual energy-saving measure was the addition of occupancy sensors to the egress lighting in the 25-story building's stairwell.
Davis & Associates was tasked with the complete relighting of the public spaces after ceiling construction opened up the opportunity for extensive renovations. MPHA had additional funding for the lighting, so it decided to use the building as a test bed for LED technology. Davis & Associates replaced the 847 existing T8 fluorescent luminaires with 570 LED luminaires in 3,500K—58-W 2-ft by 2-ft LED fixtures and 41-W LED downlights—that reduced lighting loads by 38 percent.
The new luminaires also increased illuminance levels throughout the facility: light levels rose from 3 footcandles average in corridors to 8.6 fc avg. and from 62 fc avg. in the community room to 64 fc avg. "Light levels were our number one concern," because of the senior population, says Shawn Meyer from Davis & Associates. "We held forums with the tenants, and initially there was some concern about the new lighting. But once the building was completed we put in a comment box and we had no additional feedback other than 'We love it.'"
To get the tenants on board, Davis & Associates educated them about the lighting controls (Sensor Switch). Throughout the facility, occupancy sensors turn off lights in unoccupied areas that had previously been illuminated 24/7. Custom 5-W LED sconces were added to the corridors to increase the perception of brightness and ease tenants' fears that corridors would be dark.
Convincing city officials that the occupancy sensors didn't deter safety was another challenge. "Minneapolis building code did not allow occupancy sensors in emergency egress areas, and stairwell lighting needed to be seven times brighter to meet the new building codes," explains John Plifka, MPHA manager of facilities and development.
Davis & Associates built redundancy into the control system, so that "each fixture is individually controlled," notes Meyer. After mocking up the new egress lighting and petitioning the city, the team received a code variance to allow occupancy sensors in stairwell risers, which are now only on about 8 percent of the day. The sensors are estimated to reduce actual lighting energy use by 77 percent compared to the previous system.

The invention comprises a standard microphone housing including, a standard microphone screen but which is configured to conceal a lighting mechanism. When activated, the light is emitted from the microphone housing through the screen.
1. A lamp comprising:
a source of visible light;
a base for retaining said light source;
means for coupling power to said light source; and
a housing in which said light source is contained, said housing comprising;
a conventional microphone housing; and
a conventional microphone screen, said microphone screen comprising a double mesh orb-shaped screen;
wherein said lamp appears outwardly to be a microphone; and
wherein when said light source is activated by applying power thereto, a diffuse light is emitted from said microphone screen.
2. The lamp of
a heat dissipation mechanism associated with said light source.
3. The lamp of
a stand.
4. The lamp of
a microphone boom assembly.
5. The lamp of
6. The lamp of
a diffusion means positioned between said light source and said screen.
1. Technical Field
The invention relates to illumination means, such as lamps and the like. More particularly, the invention relates to an illumination means contained within a microphone Housing.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Microphones and lamps are both well known and ubiquitous items.
Inventors in the past have used lighting means in connection with microphones for such purposes as attention getting or illumination of an area about the microphone.
For example, S. Everett, Lighted Microphone Cable Indicator, U.S. Pat. No. 6,690,804 (10 Feb. 2004) shows a lighting apparatus for use with a microphone in a sound mixing system, wherein each microphone in the system has an associated channel. A lighting means is associated with the microphone to assign a particular color to that microphone that associates the microphone with a particular channel. This allows for visual identification of the microphone and this device the light is placed in the microphone cable.
M-k Long, Flashing Light Assembly for a Microphone, U.S. Pat. No. 5,994,842 (30 Nov. 1999) shows a flashing light assembly that's attached to the outside of a microphone in the form of a collar around the microphone shell.
B, Cimock, Portable Lighted Microphone, U.S. Pat. No. 5,289,355 (22 Feb. 1994) shows a portable lighted microphone forming a configuration which outputs light, sound, and color simultaneously. In this device, a clear plastic housing is provided such that light generated within the device escapes the housing. Lighting in connection with this device is provided for entertainment purposes, for example, the light within the microphone is modulated in accordance with music or a user's voice such that the housing the microphone illuminates in time with music or singing.
P. Lee, G. Cheung, J. Yee, Integral Phone Light Accessory, U.S. Pat. No. 4,618,917 (21 Oct. 1986) shows a replacement handset for a standard telephone that has a light producing element in a rim of the microphone element. The light in this case is provided to indicate a status of the handset of the telephone.
J. Kuka, Telephone Handset with Illuminated Magnifier, U.S. Pat. No. 4,354,063 (12 Oct. 1982) shows a telephone handset having a magnifying reading glass lens built into the housing along with electric light bulb positioned to illuminate the field of view of the lens.
M. Libson, Microphone apparatus, U.S. Pat. No. 3,005,905 (24 Oct. 1961) shows a desktop microphone that includes a clear window on the lower portion thereof that contains a point by which illumination may be provided from a lamp contained within the microphone. This particular device is intended for use in connection, for example, with a lectern where a speaker is reading notes. The lamp here directs light downward from the microphone to illuminate the user's notes. A microphone is incorporated with the lamp and therefore functions as a microphone and a lamp.
W. Woodworth, Microphone Support, U.S. Pat. No. 2,263,668 (25 Nov. 1941) shows a microphone stand that provides support both for microphones and for lamps. In the Woodworth device, no attempt is made to distinguish the appearance of the microphone from the lamp, i.e. a standard lamp having a standard lens is provided. Here, the intent is to provide illumination for a lectern, for example for speaker's notes.
C. Brown, PhotoPhone, U.S. Pat. No. 2,466,000 (5 Apr. 1949) discloses a flashlight type device that includes both a transmitter and receiver by which a user may modulate the light, and thereby carry a modulated wave over the light to a similar device that receives and converts said light wave back into an audio signal.
Heretofore, no attempt has been made to provide a novel use of a microphone housing which appears as a microphone but which contains a lighting mechanism.
The invention comprises a standard microphone housing, including a standard microphone screen, but which is configured to conceal a lighting mechanism. When activated, the light is emitted from the microphone housing through the screen.
The invention comprises a standard microphone housing, comprising a standard microphone screen but which is configured to conceal a lighting mechanism. When activated, the light is emitted from the microphone housing through the screen.
The screen 1 is threadably attached to the microphone housing 5. The housing contains a switch 6 which controls power delivery to the lamp 2. An optional dimmer (not shown) may be provided to allow the intensity of the light to be adjusted as desired. In the present embodiment, standard XLR fittings associated with microphones are used. Thus, an XLR male fitting 7 is provided at the base of the microphone Housing 5 and a cable 9 which carries 12-volt power from a transformer or other 12-volt source includes a female XLR fitting 8.
Accordingly, the invention provides a novel and unique lighting source that from all outward appearances, is a microphone and, yet, surprisingly provides a diffuse and variable positionable light source.
Although the invention described herein with references to the preferred embodiment, one skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other applications may be substituted for those set forth herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly the invention should be limited by the claims included below.

NBC's American Odyssey attempts to woo viewers who have given up on the networks for cable but it misses its mark.
Professional campaign managers have had a bad image as long as they've had an image at all, which is roughly since the publication of Joe McGinniss' The Selling of the President: 1964. The occupation did not gain any luster last November when Ed Rollins shot himself in the foot with his tales of bribing New Jersey preachers. The typical campaign manager is seen as a Machiavellian spin doctor, and that's on a good day.
Perhaps the documentary "The War Room" will bring a deeper dimension to the profession's image. At the very least, it may dispel the notion that campaign managers pervert the course of democracy with behind-the-scenes omniscience; the surprise in the film is that they're often as confused as their candidates sometimes seem to be.
Filmed by the veteran documentarian D.A. Pennebaker and his wife, Chris Hegedus, the movie follows key members of Bill Clinton's campaign team from the snows of New Hampshire in January, 1992, to the victory celebration in Little Rock in November of that year. The movie's stars are James ("The Ragin' Cajun") Carville, the impish chief strategist for the Clinton campaign, and George Stephanopoulos, the young, polished former Rhodes scholar who was the campaign's media director.
The two are seen working together in an inside-outside combination. Stephanopoulos, often in a suit and tie, handsome in a Kennedyesque way, is the relaxed, usually calm press spokesman.
Carville, a tense and driven man who seems to shop for his clothes at the LSU sports store, works behind the scenes, often in the campaign's "war room" in a converted newspaper office in Little Rock.
Strategists would no doubt like to see themselves like modern Napoleons, moving pawns on the maps of continents. More often, this film shows, they get involved in screwy debates about the color, typography and size of their campaign posters. Their dedication to "the Candidate" is easily matched by the intensity with which they despise their opponents - and especially their opponents' troops, suspected in New Hampshire of tearing down Clinton signs (something, of course, Carville's volunteers would never, ever do . . . except, of course, in retaliation).
Most of the opening footage in the film was gathered by Pennebaker and Hegedus from TV and documentary crews who were on the scene in the early primaries. Their own footage begins at about the time of the Democratic Convention, where Clinton was nominated, and follows Carville and Stephanopoulos down the increasingly rocky road to the election victory. They allow the cameras access to surprisingly unguarded moments, as when they brief their squad of spin doctors after one of the Clinton-Bush debates ("Just keep on repeating that Bush was on the defensive all night"), and when the press reports on Clinton's draft history, Carville complains, "Every time somebody even farts the word draft, it makes the paper." Given the various scandals and would-be scandals that pursued the Clinton campaign, it seems almost incredible that he survived, and won. There is footage from grim early days in New England, right after the supermarket tabloids broke the first charges of Clinton's adultery, and footage months later, two days before the election, of Stephanopoulos calmly talking on the phone with a man who had still more hearsay he wanted to ventilate.
What you realize, watching Carville and Stephanopoulos move between grand strategy and damage control, is that they are good at their jobs, and probably as honest as was possible under the circumstances. Certainly their decision to allow access by documentarians shows a willingness to be seen, warts and all.
Carville is moving in a speech to his troops on the eve of the election. Exhausted, strung out, on the brink of tears, he tells them that politics has been his life, and that it is a life worth living.
Of course, during the course of the campaign, his own personal life changed dramatically when he became engaged to Mary Matalin, the strategist for the Bush campaign. How did they meet, how did they start dating, and what did they talk about? Now that would have made a movie.

To create his chic, edgy men's clothing, footwear and accessories, John Varvatos draws inspiration from his hometown of Detroit and the charismatic rock musicians it has spawned — including Jack White, Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop. John Varvatos Star USA, the younger brother of Varvatos' flagship label the John Varvatos Collection, offers shoes and boots that are more everyday-casual than the pricier styles offered by its older sibling, but fancier than the high-tops and low-tops of Converse John Varvatos — Varvatos' successful collaboration with the famous footwear brand. Stone-colored Chelsea boots, burnished leather chukka boots, hand-treated suede Schooner boat shoes, polished leather wingtips — Star USA has them all, with contrast stitching, antiqued buckles, and other finishing touches. Each expertly constructed style looks just as great with a tailored suit as with a pair of Varvatos' slim-fitting jeans.
Once in a great while, we wind up with some items that haven't found their way to a good home. It's tragic, we know. But don't worry, there's a silver lining. We're offering them to you — at steeper-than-ever discounts — so we can make way for new gear. We've only got a few of each item in stock, so move fast.
If you find yourself wanting to inject a bit of downtown cool into your wardrobe, look no further than John Varvatos's hip, accessible Star USA collection. With these sharp blazers, edgy graphic tees, slim denim, impeccable outerwear, and more, you'll be sure to look the part.
From elegant sportcoats to dress shirts to footwear and more, this sale is chock full of ways to update your wardrobe without breaking the bank.
John Varvatos's edgy updates to classic styles are a great way to inject some downtown cool into your look. From suede oxfords to lace-up boots to wingtips, slip-ons, and more, there's plenty here to make sure you're looking great from bottom to top.

The core members Jack Patterson (bass, keyboards), Grace Chatto (cello) and Milan Neil Amin-Smith (violin) met while studying as undergraduates in Cambridge, later joined by brother Luke Patterson (drums). Their unique take on dance music sees beats collide with classical, where Baroque meets house and pop. Classing themselves as an 'electroquartet', and featuring a string of guest vocalists, they have been described as the new Disclosure with a chamberpop bent.

Best weed killer to spray on lawn?
Had a contractor spray our lawn last year for weeds etc. but would like to do it myself this year.
Any recommendations on what to use? Weed-Be-Gone? Saw 3 way herbicide like Riverdale Triplet or Lesco's Three-way recommended online?
There is no single weed killer that is "best". There isn't even a single weed killer that will kill every type of weed. You need to know what weeds you have, and what will control the largest number of weed types in your lawn without harming your grass. So, a great start is to identify the weeds that need to be killed, tell us what type of grass you have and work from there.
Also, weed killing is a temporary solution. If you don't fix the problems that allowed significant numbers of weeds to invade your lawn, they'll be back for sure.
If you are growing a healthy lawn, you really shouldn't have to spray weed killer on the whole thing. The occasional spot treatment of problems is all you should need. Weed-b-gon works well on most broad leaf weeds but doesn't do anything to grassy weeds.
ok well here's what i did that worked with weeds.
1. last yr had a dandelion problem, used a 'weed hound' tool to remove them before they went to seed. Worked great, this year i have hardly any!
2. this year the weeds seem to be mostly clover and chickweed. I used weed b gon max to spot spray, after 7 days they disappeared. So every week i got hunting for new weeds and this stuff seems to kill them off before they seed. Just make sure you wet the weed, too mcuh and the grass will go a little yellow for a day or two, but if you just wet it, it does nothing to the grass. good luck!
Personaly, Im a big fan of 2,4-d. Just make sure it wont harm the type of grass you have. As far as I know, only people who have St Aug(floratam, saphire) can not use this herbicide.
You can get a gallon of concentrate at tractor supply. Get the ester varity, it seems to work a little better.
This is the main ingredient of almost all weed killers and weed b gone knockoffs.
I have a large area of turf in a rural area that alwys will get some weed infestation. Usually I spot treated with 2,4 or a similar product. But this Spring did tried a new product6 and it was fantastic!
It is SpeedZone. It works very well in cold weather. I used just less than 1 oz. per gallon in a hose-end sprayer over the entire turf area. It is rain-fast in 3 hours.
After 1 week the chickweed, henbit, etc., that was starting to take over was completely destroyed. I then fertilized in mid-March and with the warm April weather the density of the new turf and lack of competition has filled in completely.
After the first application, there was some yellowing of the ends of the blades of the fine fescue in the lawn. But after 1 mowing it was back to normal. Also I advise not use use a surfactant or adjuvant with this product which may reduce it selectivity on broadleaf weeds only. Also, I would not get it near shrubs as the product can be absorbed from the roots and damage the plant.
In mid-April I inspected the lawn again and spot treated with the same product for late germinating weeds. I used less than half of the amount of liquid I would normally use to spot treat at this time of year. With spot treatment I noticed no yellowing of the grass blades.

Johnny Cash - Christmas as I Knew It [#][*]
Johnny Cash
One day near Christmas when I was just a child
Mama called us together and mama tried to smile
She said you know the cotton crop hasn't been too good this year
There's just no spending money and well at least we're all here
I hope you won't expect a lot of Christmas presents
Just be thankful that there is plenty to eat
That's quite a blessing that'll make things a little more pleasant
And us kids got to thinking how really blessed we were
At least we were all healthy and best of all we had her
Roy cut down a pigapple tree and we drug it home Jack and me
Daddy killed a squirrel and Louise made the bread
Reba decorated the tree with popcorn strings before we went to bed
Mama and daddy sacrificed cause this Christmas was lean
But after all there was the babies Tom and Joanne babies need a few things
I whittled a whistle for my brother Jack and though we fought now and then
When I gave Jack that whistle he knew I thought the world of him
Mama made the girl's dresses out of flower sacks
And when she ironed them down you couldn't tell that they hadn't come from town
A sharecropped family across the road didn't have it as good as us
They didn't even have a light and it was way past dusk
And mama said well I bet they don't even have coaloil or beans to boil
A log apples cranges and such
Me and Jack took a jar of coaloil nd some hickernuts we'd found
We walked to the sharecropper's porch and set 'em down
A poor old ragged lady eased open the door
She picked up the coaloil and hickernuts and said
I sure do thank ye and quickly closed the door
We started back home me and Jack and about halfway we stopped looked back
And in the sharecropper's window at last was a light
So for one of the neighbors and for us it was a good Christmas night
Christmas came and Christmas went Christmas that year was heaven sent
Then daddy put on his gumboots waited for the thaw back home in Dyess Arkansas
