"Someday at Christmas" - Stevie Wonder - 1967

Title song for the Stevie Wonder Christmas album is probably one of the most moving of all songs written for the Christmas holiday.

"Someday at Christmas" was also covered by Wonder's label mates at Motown, The Jackson 5, on their Christmas album a few years later.

plezWorld - I'm New

"I'm New" from Stevie Wonder's "Conversation Peace" LP



in the long stretches of time that this blog was inaccessible on saturday afternoon, plezWorld continued to molt and regenerate.

in the murky solitude of a violent thunderstorm and lightening and three power outages (thanks to the battery backup attached to my office system)...

a new plezWorld emerged.


actually, i was bold enough to explore a template layout via Blogger.com. it may not look much different, but it is... like Stevie said, "i'm new."


AS if that wasn't enough... chill out with one of Stevie Wonder's greatest efforts...

Hotter than July

Master Blaster by Stevie Wonder from the "Hotter than July" LP

After surviving the shortest Spring in recent memory, Summertime rolled into Georgia this week and it is definitely "HOTTER THAN JULY" around here. I know the official start of Summer is still over a month away, but I'm already feeling the heat!

Spring got a very late start this year: early April. And it didn't stick around very long either, as evidenced by the thermometer in my car this afternoon. Yeah, it registered 107 degrees on the afternoon of May 11! Al Gore must've been on to something with his treatise on global warming, it felt like another glacier was fixing to slide into the Atlantic this afternoon!

My summertime routine began this week: the sprinklers are set to water the lawn every other day (I can't remember the last time we had any substantial rain), the cushions are in place on the lawn chairs, the grill is cleaned and ready to go, and i sat outside this evening under the stars sipping on a cold tall one! And how can I forget, all of the cooling units and ceiling fans are up and running.

plezWorld is gonna take it easy and settle in for a long, hot summer... as the weather will be like this until September!
