♫ Do It Again ♫

The Beach Boys played for my high school graduation dance and party – always a favorite.

Filosofa's Word

I liked the Beach Boys okay when I was in my teen years but was more caught up in the Motown sound and to me the Beach Boys were … I dunno … too light, maybe?  I worked full-time from the time I turned 13, so never had time to become a part of the beach crowd … that might have made a difference.  That said, they did some songs that I loved, like Good Vibrations, Kokomo, Sloop John B, etc.  Until last night, though, I don’t think I had ever heard of this song, Do It Again, although it did chart at #20 in the U.S.  But, my team of directors, after a bit of discussion starting with Manilow, then Whitney, finally settled on this one for me to play today!  😊  Thanks, guys … despite my teasing, I do like it … you done…

The Month of May with African Human Rights Coalition – O-blog-dee-o-blog-da

It seems that the U.S. Evangelical push for so called FAMILY VALUES has led to more and more forced displacement of LGBTQI+ Africans, whose crime is to love. While reflecting on the reported millions spent by the religious right to re-colonize Africa with homophobia, to promote Kill the Gays in Africa, I ponder the comparative trickle of funds that our NGO’S, LGBTQI and FUNDING COMMUNITIES provide to the casualties of hate in Africa. In the trenches we see it!
