Man, you're a curmudgeon. You must be a blast at parties...that only play Sam Cooke and Glen Campbell songs.*

I used to be when I was drinking, but I haven't drank for well over 30yrs. Now I'm just high on life. Maybe we should get together some time. I'm sure we could have a BLAST...!!!! I'm a classic rock and roller kind of guy. It motivates the hell out of me, makes me the "life" of the party...!!! PM me, and we'll set something up. I like just about anything except rap, and the band "Yes". Can't take them at all. I would rather crawl through broken glass naked, than listen to Yes, or rap crap. I like Glen Campbell too, not familiar with Sam Cooke. I think we have more in common than you would care to admit. We can talk politics while jammin out to some (Uncle) Ted Nugent!!! Dog, dog, dog eat dog... LOL

Wait, you're not familiar with Sam Cooke?! I'm sure you'd know his stuff if you heard it. And just for you, I'm gonna blast "Owner of a Lonely Heart" on my way home.

I'm gonna throw up thinking about that song, and the song "Roundabout", (and Cheap Trick's "Surrender"). Over rated. Best song with the word "surrender" in it is Triumph's "Never Surrender". Very inspirational / motivational. A lot of Triumph songs have a positive message, which is rare. Which is what makes them great IMHO. One of my all time favorite Triumph songs is "Ordinary man". Awesome song. Check it out...

Default Glen Campbell

I remember Glen Campbell. Part of the Kingston Trio, then a Beach Boy. Then a summer replacement for the Smothers Brothers. Always a substitute. Didn't he have a summer route in the Poconos?

Ummm...with such hits as, "Rhinestone Cowboy," "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," and "Dreams of the Everyday Housewife," Campbell was NEVER a substitute (only a good friend)!

Default "Good Times Hour"...

I've kept a 7-inch reel (and AKAI recorder) of tape of the "Good Times Hour", recorded from TV.

"Sing-a-long" notables included Barbra Streisand, Anne Murray, Johnny Cash, Petula Clark, Sonny and Cher, and Linda Ronstadt.

All four seasons are available free from Amazon Prime:
http://www.tv.com/shows/the-glen-cam...hour/episodes/

(The page lists plenty of familiar names, lost to the past).

Meredith Marina is a DUMP! They should be more concerned with upgrading their business and visual appearance so folks who drive by their facility on Rte.3 have to view...

Most other marina's keep their properties in great shape.
- Lakeport Landing
- Irwin's
- Winni Marine (old Channel)
- Thurston's
- Silver Sands
- Goodhue's (Wolfboro)
- Shep Brown's
