Subtitled: Following Doctors' Orders
[For 52 Weeks Of Feeling Fit and Songs In The Key Of Life]
Knowing fully well that there'd be another online demonstration to rival the Smiley Icon Demonstrations Of 2010 otherwise, I'm including (thanks to Ralph) a shot of karaoke posse member moi.
I assure you that karaoke is very much a part of my fitness regimen. EVERY SINGLE MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL I have seen since I started warbling has either supported or downright encouraged me to keep attending.
It's not such a strange prescription if you stop and think about it: I've often walked to karaoke and am stepping up the the number of times that I do so. I live alone - but am never alone when I go out. In fact, i can actually gauge BOTH my mental and physical health by my actions and interactions at the k-bar. That is no lie.
So like any good patient, I am doing my best here to follow medical orders. As a side note, in my lifetime I have had two different doctors in two entirely different cities tell me I NEEDED to be in a relationship. I'm quite eager to see about getting THAT prescription filled - not to mention sticking some insurance company with a bill for a 5-star romantic getaway for two to someplace tropical. (Hmmmm. I wonder if I should be saving my food, bar and karaoke night cover charges tabs for the same reason......)
I haven't a clue precisely which song I'm doing here. But I have a guess. And given my inability to get that other prescription taken care of, the song is especially appropriate (not to mention the fact singing it helps me drastically improve my lung function...)
Ain't No Sunshine
as performed by Bill Withers
(with a special shoutout to Lenny Kravitz' kick ass version with orchestration, which I just heard for the first time while searching for a clip)
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.
It's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long anytime she goes away.
Wonder this time where she's gone,
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away.
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Hey, I ought to leave the young thing alone,
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone, only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.

Ringtoy K action figure fullset arrived last night!! He is amazing. I did a box opening (sort of) on instagram...
The K type bus followed quickly after the first world war in 1919. It was developed by General's own engineers. It was a complete departure from the former B type with straight sides, built in wheel arches and a wider body. The seating capacity was 40 and it was the first time the driver sat alongside the engine. This bus was finally withdrawn in June 1932. This example being preserved in the Museum of British Transport, London SW4

Kristiansand Airport Kjevik (KRS) on July 14, 2012. No. 331 (Norwegian) Squadron Supermarine Spitfire L.F. IXe "FN-K" (RAF Ser. No. PT882). This beautiful replica is placed as a gate guardian in front of Luftforsvarets Skolesenter Kjevik (The Air Force School Center Kjevik). Note that reflection from the grass, makes the belly look a little to green.
Ukrainian Air Force Major Gen. Leonid K. Kadenyuk became a cosmonaut in 1976, as part of a Soviet Air Force cosmonaut team. But he was dismissed in 1983, until in 1988 Kadenyuk became a candidate for a new group of air force test pilots for Buran, the Soviet space shuttle. With Kadenyuk's previous experience training for a Soyuz mission, he joined two others for a possible Soyuz-Buran mission.
But that never happened, and any hope of spaceflight was dashed until May 1995, when the presidents of the United States and Ukraine issued a joint statement on cooperation in space, directing the National Aeronatics and Space Administration (NASA) and the then-National Space Agency of Ukraine (NSAU) to cooperate on a joint space shuttle mission.
In 1996, Kadenyuk (on the left) and Yaroslav I. Pustovyi (right) were selected as the candidates for the Ukraine payload specialist slot for an American space shuttle mission, which flew the Collaborative Ukrainian Experiment and the fourth United States Microgravity Payload flight as STS-87 in 1997.
Kadenyuk was the first, and to date, only, astronaut from Ukraine. He signed this picture for me at the Ukraine in Washington event, honoring among other things the 20th anniversary of the State Space Agency of Ukraine. Washington, DC, 1 Dec. 2012
