Frank Sinatra arrested in Bergen County, NJ in 1938 for "carrying on with a married woman."


THEY CAN'T TAKE NOTHIN' AWAY FROM ME
as sung by Frank Sinatra

  
All or nothin' at all
There are many (many) crazy things
And with your permission I'd rather (rather) have nothin' at all

 All or nothin' at all
If its love, there is no in-between
Why begin, then cry, for something that might have been
No I'd rather (with your permission) list a few...

 The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
But please dont bring your lips so close to my cheek
or my heart may go dizzy (dizzy) and fall

 We may never (ever) meet again, on that bumpy road to love
But I'll always (always) keep the memory of your smile, or
I'll be lost and caught in the undertow
The way you hold your knife
The touch of your hand makes me weak
 And if I fell (fell) under the spell of your call
I would sing off-key
So you see
I've got to say you changed my life

All The Way (All The Way)


FUERA NO PUEDEN TOMAR NOTHIN' FROM ME

 GOOGLE (English to Spanish)

Todo o nada en absoluto
Hay muchas (muchas) cosas locas Y con su permiso
Mis bien (y no) tienen nada en absoluto
Todo o nada en absoluto
Si su amor, no hay en el medio
Por que empezar, y luego llorar, algo que podr'a haber sido
No, yo prefiero (con su permiso) una lista de algunas ...

La manera de llevar el sombrero
La manera de beber el te
Pero, por favor dont llevar sus labios tan cerca de mi mejilla,
o mi corazon puede vertigo (mareos) y la caida
Es posible que nunca (nunca) se reinen de nuevo,
en ese camino lleno de
baches para el amor

Pero malos siempre (siempre) mantener
la memoria de tu sonrisa, o de
Estar perdido y atrapado en la resaca
La manera en que sostiene el cuchillo
El toque de su mano me hace dï bil

Y si me ca' (cay) bajo el hechizo de su llamada
Quisiera cantar fuera de tono
Asi que ya ve
Tengo que decir que cambio mi vida

All The Way (All The Way)


CAN NOT TAKE AWAY NOTHIN' FROM ME

 

GOOGLE (translated Spanish, back to English) 

All or nothing at all
There are many (many) crazy things
And with your permission I'd rather (rather) have nothing at all
All or nothing at all
If your love, there is in the middle
Why start and then mourn, something that could have been
No, I prefer (with permission) a list of some ...

How to take your hat
The way to drink tea
But please do not bring your lips so close to my cheek,
or my heart may vertigo (dizziness) and fall
We may never (ever) meet again in the bumpy road to love
But Ill always (always) keep the memory of your smile,
or I am lost and trapped in the undertow

The way you hold the knife
The touch of your hand makes me weak
And if I fell (fell) under the spell of your call I would sing out of tune
So you see I have to say that changed my life

All The Way (All The Way)

ONE FOR THE MONEY - TWO FOR THE ROAD


Dr. J - headin' on down the road, Albany, NY -  05:30:35am - photo: J. Galligan, 07-18-09

TWO FOR THE ROAD: TIMES TWO
 
1) TWO FOR THE ROAD BY BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN
 
It's one for the money and one for the show
I got one kiss for you so come on let's go
I didn't see it coming but now I know
It takes one for the running but two for the road
 
One thousand dreams whispered in the dark
But a dream's just a dream in one empty heart
It takes more than one to rev it up and go
So get it running, we're two for the road
 
Two one-way tickets and a diamond ring
Hell it don't matter what the rain might bring
When this world treats you hard and cold
I'll stand beside you, we're two for the road
 
When you're alone I'll shine the light
Through the dark and starless night
I'll hold you and never let you go
C'mon now 'cause we're two for the road
Well it's two to get ready, c'mon let's go
Me and you, we're two for the road

 
 
2) TWO FOR THE ROAD BY ANDY WILLIAMS
 
If you're feeling fancy free,
Come wander through the world with me,
And any place we chance to be
Will be our rendezvous.
Two for the road, we'll travel down the years,
Collecting precious memories,
Selecting souvenirs and living life
the way we please.

 
*In summertime the sun will shine,
In winter we'll drink summer wine,
And every day that you are mine
Will be a lovely day.
As long as love still wears a smile,
I know that we'll be two for the road,
And that's a long, long, while.

 
(Instrumental interlude and pick up at *.)
 
In summertime the sun will shine,
In winter we'll drink summer wine,
And every day that you are mine
Will be a lovely day.
As long as love still wears a smile,
I know that we'll be two for the road,
And that's a long, long, while.

 
 
3) MIXED VERSION BY JAN GALLIGAN
 
If you're feeling fancy free,
Hell it don't matter what the rain might bring
 
And any place we chance to be in winter,
we'll drink summer wine,
 
Two one-way tickets and
selecting souvenirs and living life
Will be our rendezvous.
 
Well it's two to get ready, c'mon let's go
It's one for the money and one for the show
And that's a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long,
long,
long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, road.

BEST DIGITAL ARTIST IN BAY AREA, 2009
JC Garrett

 
Digital art has come a long way since the era of chrome women, endless
tiled plains, and floating polygons, but it still often looks both
hyperreal and unreal, like the bodiless CGI in movies: silicon-based eye
candy rather than carbon-based self-expression. This is decidedly not the
case with JC Garrett's satirical prints, which, far from exulting in their
state-of-the-art computational muscle, have instead a retro, precomputer
look that recalls the zippy, montage-based commercial styles of the 1960s.

While Garrett employs some photographic imagery, he draws most of it with a
mouse, bringing a traditional artistic subjectivity and gesture into these
mash-ups of politics, sex, commerce, and war. In "Candidate 2007," a
colossal Hillary head rests atop media logos, awaiting the cranes that will
hoist it into position. "Fractured Fairy Tales" is Garrett's self-portrait composed of eight
separate images, almost like those old TV ads with the pounding hammer,
tautened rope, and sparking electrodes denoting headache pain in the
floating world of our mediasphere and mindscape.

Behind the Scenes: Digital Manipulation of Photographs published in the New York Times Sunday Magazine, July 5, 2009


EDGAR MARTINS: PHOTOGRAPHER OF TOPOLOGIC PERFECTION,
WITHOUT POST-PRODUCTION TRICKERY. Photo-Illustration J.Galligan, 07-08-09, Albany

EDGAR MARTINS - SNITRAM RAGDE
 
 
Controversial Portugese fine-art and editorial photographer
Edgar Martins, currently charged with providing the New York
Times a set of digitially manipulated photographs, mis-identified as being
"made without any post-production trickery" has created
a considerable body of work based on absolute and relative symmetry.
 
Discussing his work, Martins has said, "Since I started working with
photography I know that I can engage people more if I strip down my
visual language. When you strip down your language you are working with
vary basic mathematical issues - symmetry plays a part, some geometry
plays a part, but however, though the work is apparently precise, the
process by which it is produced is completely imprecise. So, this
paradox really interests me..."
 
 
"Part of my work deals with the process of producing and reading images.
They are images about images, so to speak (meta-images)...If the images
are deceptive and illusionary, it is because photography has these
qualities."
 
"When I photograph, I don't do any post-production to the images, either in
the darkroom or digially, because it erodes the process."
 
EXCERPTS FROM AN INTERVIEW WITH RUBEN NATAL SAN
MIGUEL, REGARDING THE APERTURE PUBLICATION OF MARTINS'
PHOTOGRAPHS "TOPOLOGIES"

 
 
In another interview, Martins made these comments regarding his photographs:
 
"I photograph in often "unphotographable" conditions... I make use of long
exposures. For so long photography has been about control. I like to
relinquish some of that control... What seem like highly controlled and manipulated
photographs are but a product of illusion. The illusion of the photographic process."

REGARDING THE APERTURE PUBLICATION OF MARTINS'
PHOTOGRAPHS "TOPOLOGIES"

Is there any mechanism for creating a menu list
of the entries on a specific blog?

At the moment I've got two blogs, one with
about 10 entries and the other with 51 entries.
For the lengthy blog I'd like to create an
entries listing, in date, or subject order.
 
I've thought about copying and pasting the listings
from the Site Manage list into an email and making
a new entry that is the list. I could do that every
so often as an update - but that's a bit kludgy.
 
Thank you
