There are openings at Greytown’s karaoke night if the Patagonians want to “chime” in!

The combination of TV, Banging and RB's version has one considering reaching for the phone and dialing 911. But, wait, that's RB and to make such a call would get one on that special list that 911 operator's have!!!

Try being a Baritone with an accompanying Amazon and its just not pretty, not at all!

Well, speaking of singing... you have seen videos of the Rb reproducing my giggles, sneezes, chatting, and now...

Here is his rendition of my lullabye. When I first got him, he missed his old home, I guess, and would screech at night until I would sing. I still do lullabyes. Sometimes he "sings" with me. I swear to GAWD that I have a decent voice, but you'd never know that from the bird's version.
The room is dark, so there's nothing to see... the television is still on low in the next room... it must be time for...

A Rickeybird Lullaby.

Yes, he likes to accompany his lullabyes with his bell; his Rival reacts by turning the TV up, and pretty soon everybody is yelling, and there is a gradual escalation into craziness.
I think we're learning that lullabyes and parrots may not have been part of the Divine Evolution of the Universe.

A trip down Memory Lane, from your humble Scrapbook Archivist..............

From exactly three years ago today, 1-9, in 2017.

We're barely into a new year, and yet a quick look back into the Scrapbook Archives tells us that the more things change, the more they stay the same.
 
Somebody dropped this in the Scrapbook a while back... I saved the image but not the original poster's identity. It bears re-posting here!

Well DANG!

I meant to post this for New Year's, but I forgot!
Am I too late?
It's still January!



"2020"
Sung by The Rickeybird...
(You can sing along, too, to tune of the New Year anthem "1999", by Prince)

"I was screamin' when I wrote this
Forgive me if I poop away!
When I woke up this mornin'
Coulda sworn that it was New Year's Day.
My cage door was open,
There were humans runnin' everywhere
Tryin' to run from my destruction,
And you know I didn't even care!

'Cuz they say two thousand-zero-19 party over,
Oops, out of time!
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999!
(((((((((I was only 15 then!!!!!)))))))

I was screamin' when I wrote this
So bite me if I go too fast!
But life is just a chile, and a chile wasn't meant too last!
War is all around us, my mind says prepare to fly,
So if I gotta die I'm gonna listen to my chiles tonight!

Yeah, they say two thousand-zero-zero-18 party over,
Oops, out of time!
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999!!!!
Yeah!

Lemme tell ya somethin',
If ya didn't come to party,
Don't bother bangin' on my cage!
I got a lion in my beakie,
And baby, he's ready to rage!
Yeah, all these rulers got a bomb,
We could all die any day!
But before I'll let that happen,
I'll scream my life away!

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, get in the zone!
Fun roosterz, g'on!
Hot henz, come on!

C'mon, sing this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"[/QUOTE]
 
And the Grammy for outrageous performance goes to.....Rickeybird! With another Grammy for best original arrangement to Gail!

Oh, Rickeybird!
 
May I be the first to wish everyone a joyous MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. DAY and weekend?
I am a proud member of a diverse, multi-racial, multi-cultural family, and we celebrate this holiday like no other day... not just with solemnity and reverence, but with good fun and cheer and laughter, lifting up the certainty that the human family will someday come together. As Dr. King said...
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
Happy MLK Day! How blessed we are to have had him in our heritage. Thank you for letting me share my good cheer in the Rickeybird Scrapbook here in the Forums!!

I absolutely LOVED this! Thank you for the Sunshine you always bring with your every post, my friend!
 
It was my joy to share. Thank you for your post and also the beautiful thread.
 
Thanks, my love. The Scrapbook is a part of our daily lives and therefore a great place to share important memories.
I also enjoyed Stephen's (Anansi's) thread, and there I shared that Dr. King had spoken and preached at my church here in Cleveland in 1963.
 
Beware all who enter the Scrapbook, forever will it dominate your destiny, as it has mine!

Wait a sec......... this is fake news, right? Right? I can't tell anymore.


This is one of my "on this date in the Scrapbook X years ago" items. This one is from exactly three years ago.
APOLOGIES TO MADONNA
LaMartina, heed Wrench's timeless caution, and do not take anything in the Scrapbook too seriously. Except what I say, of course.

Of course competition is fierce in the new year. This the leggy sisters have reappeared circling above to catch a glimpse of RB.
