oldiesmusicnut on Squidoo

Hi everyone, and welcome to OldiesMusicNut! My name is Steve, and I'm a Baby Boomer, born in '48 (late September). I love old music from my past. There are people in my life who'll tell you I obsess about it.

Lenses I create here on Squidoo are about the music. I love sharing what I love, so there'll be a lot of the music itself.

Information about the artists themselves, or the songs, is a dime a dozen...

    What a delight to find a new creation by you, I've always loved Ghost Writers in the Sky! I hope you're all settled in and back on your desktop. You pass through my mind every now and then. I hope you love eggs because my security word is "egglove".

    Hi Tipi!! Yes, I'm getting back bit by bit. Got a new computer (Windows 7) and having a time getting used to it. Have a small one-bedroom home, perfect for me. Sorry my new lens isn't up to par, but I'm flying by the seat of my pants, trying to re-familiarize myself with the routine here.

    Hearing from you just now reminded me that there are still so many beautiful people in this world. You're my inspiration here, and I hope you know how much that means.

    Now I have to type a very appropriate word - "ubergoof." LOL!!

    Hi Tipi :) I've been out of commission since my brother passed in February and I've had to find a new place to live. Have a home lined up, but won't be ready to move into until the end of June. Meanwhile, I'm living at a motel and using a laptop, which is just unbearable *whine* Nice to see you, and thanks for thinking of me!

    Sorry to hear about your bro. ~ Moving is a pain, but a new place is delightful. May the warn winds of heaven blow soft upon your home, and all who enter there. ~ Good to hear your still around.

    Look at this one, "botskip" ... Now, what's a botskip?
