Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for sharing the music video of the Talking Heads performing "Life During Wartime"
Life During Wartime written by David Byrne, Caetano Veloso
Lyrics
"Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons,
Packed up and ready to go
Heard of some grave sites, out by the highway,
A place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire, off in the distance,
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in a brownstone, lived in the ghetto,
I've lived all over this town
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
This ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey,
I ain't got time for that now
Transmit the message, to the receiver,
Hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, a couple of visas,
You don't even know my real name
High on a hillside, the trucks are loading,
Everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime,
I might not ever get home
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
This ain't…"

It is good to be back on here consistently LTC Stephen F.. I’m not big on making excuses, but for the last 3 months I had been organizing “A Flower On Every Grave” and the Harvest America” revival in Gardendale, Alabama. Those, coupled with our ninistry have taken their role on me, and during that time, I found very little time for anything else. I missed being involved and was excited after tying up those commitments, so that I could rejoin my brothers and sisters on here.
