The "challenges" are only sub categories suggested by members to make the club more interesting By introducing new and different generations era's to hear and sing and share. Categories that's already fit into our THEME of keeping it as blue as possinle, and now we have added jazzy with pizzazz... broadway show tunes are welcome.
This is a good time to bring forward our self explanatory banners that suggest all the different genres and. the newest addition mean broadway show tunes

Good morning all who are around - good morning Pauline.

I spent yesterday, clearing out and updating my computer system, as I was having problems, not associated with SS. We are also experiencing very hot temperatures over here, which we are not used to, and therefore have difficulty coping with as our homes are not air conditions, simply because there is normally not a requirement for it, so if the temperature outside is 80F and above, you can only imagine what the temperature is like, say up the the attic where my Office is, all be it a very large space, the heat is unbearable to stay in during this hot spell, despite have fans all around.

Yesterday it was over 100F in my Office, so I found it too unpleasant to stay in, and only did the work on my computer at hourly intervals.

It is great weather for our tourists from around the world who when interviewed on TV said they were told to bring layers and warm clothing, as it can 'be cold in Scotland even at this time of year' LOL - all who were interviewed expressed their great surprise at having to go shop for cooler to wear clothing.

It won't last though as it never does here, and soon we will return to temps betwee 65F and 75F which we are more used to. I'm one of those people who prefers cooler weather anyway, so I'm hating this weather.

I'll be in and out today to catch up with my listens, as I don't want to leave anyone out. Today is supposed to be even hotter than yesterday - I woke up five times last night soaked in perspiration - not at all pleasant. Humidity today is set for 96F.

Catch up soon.

Hi Anetta, my husband would agree, he loves the cooler weather. I however love the heat, but I may have to buy an AC unit for my office, don't think my computers enjoy the heat.

Hi everyone!

Usually I'm not around on weekends, that is my family time.

Hi guys and gals, Just a little update.

If I suddenly don't respond, or appear to be offline too long, it will be because I've had to take my PC to be fixed. I've crashed again today 3 times, with serious problems, which I can't get to the bottom of this means I'd have to call in an expert.

Just wanted you to know as I don't know how long I'll be on before it crashes again.

Glad you had a nice weekend CHL, glad to help out. But, as you can see I'm having 'puter problems right now, so once these are sorted - I am more than happy.

Much cooler here today - more like my kind of weather, in fact I'd say we could get some thunder later - how cool would that be LOL

Hi all, morning, I have just experienced the first tornado of my life this weekend. It is so sad to see all the farms and trees down but luckly no one was hurt.

Nature can be so Facinating but yet so so frightning at times and so unpredictable.
I'm also glad no one was hurt and empathize with those who lost and possessions .

Another thought is just let the club run itself and Myself and Jackie will keep us "on Task" and open up to suggestions anytime

That's great cuz I read about the extream heat you were having
Always best to have a little mix of hot and cooler days ,
But Statin' "COOL" is the shizzaz

Edited reply by coolhandlukeGOLD

Another example of Anything Blue Will Do. This i clearly a classic Country song made Famous By The Band Alabama --- however , to make it fit into "our Theme " I sang this with an extra emphasis on Singing it as Blue as I could and make it Fit. Called Of Course I'm Alright by Alabama (old recording ) should of sung it new for this example.
http://www.singsnap.com/karaoke/r/b2faad94
We don't want to really change that foundation Theme ., However we do want to add a new Genre "The Pizzaz N' Jazz Review" which very closly parallels Yhe Blues Genre. So keep it as blue as possible and "Also" as Jazzy as possible when bringing new Broadway Jazz tunes and of any Jazzy ditty's to yhe table lol.
Define , Simplify and implement into Theme !
