Here kitty, kitty

cat stella

Stella is a very well behaved and beautiful cat who’s about 7 months.  She’s available for adoption at the Animal Services Center of the Mesilla Valley 3551 Bataan Memorial West.  The Center is open each day at Noon and the telephone number is - (575) 382-0018.  Check out their website - www.ascmv.org

Music History 101: 1971 This performer was booed when he performed new material at an oldies show at Madison Square Garden. As a result, he wrote this song: “Garden Party” Rick Nelson.

The 101 number one song of the day is a love song. But it is a very different love song because it does not express love for another human being --rather it is for an animal.  And it happens to be about an animal that very few of us would consider the least bit lovable. It’s the title song to a horror movie about an ailing youngster who somehow befriends the leader of a killer gang. Authorities are intent on wiping out the gang but the kid wants to protect the leader and he composes a song about their relationship. The movie was a hit and so, obviously, was the song that was number one on October 15, 1972 – it was a song about a rat – named “Ben” --Michael Jackson .
