Discovering Online Karaoke
Online Karaoke is so great, I think it is an ideal teaching instrument of songs that I always wanted to know the words. I follow the highlighted word until the end of the song and I sang the whole song like one of the professionals some of the time. Michael Jackson's song Smooth Criminal is tricky with the lyrics. It isn't the words" Annie are you ok". It is how many times it is sung and at what tempo it is sung. I like singing "Time to say goodbye". I don't know all the Italian words, but I can pick up on some of them. I can hit all the notes so that makes it fairly easy. When I traveled to and from work, I would use my CD player to practice singing with the great singers such as Bocelli, Pavoratti, Brighton, and Domingo. Beverly Sills whom I admire, was one to rise on a high note and stay up there in the clouds where no one could reach her. The sun is out again after a grey morning. The humidity level is way high. However, we didn't get the rain over here on the Coast. Lunch was tuna fish on a split tomato with celery sticks on the side. Dinner was lunch meat sandwiches and potato chips. The sun seems to go down so fast. I get a glimpse of golden sunlight outside the kitchen window and then it turned pitch dark ; except for, the light across the street at the neighbor's house.

I use to do my "karaoke" in the shower years ago. The smallness of the bathroom and reflection of the sound helps to make it sound better. But as Albert Einstein once said that he used to play the violin but he finally got so bad that even he couldn't stand it and so gave up the violin. Same with me, it got so bad that I had to give up my singing while taking a shower. This is a neat site with the lyrics to songs.

You are fortunate to have pitch dark for telescope viewing. I had friends who were amateur astronomers in San Diego and to avoid the lights of the city they would point their telescopes out over the ocean where the skies were so much darker. You could do the same. As we come into summer there is less and less to see in the nightime sky. Winter is best. Also moving the telescope in a shadow from a tree ot the house helps a lot also. As the star hustler Jack Horkheimer says "Keep looking up". Jack is the director of the planetarium in Miami and also has a syndicated television series of spots on PBS. Think cool. Lew
