Warren Zevon had troubles of his own namely alcohol abuse and his music had that dark and often times darkly comedic. Letterman was always self deprecating and a bit if an angry bastard in the best possible way. The pairing of these two makes perfect sense to me. Warren often joked that Letterman has been his biggest fan. Warren Zevon appeared on David Letterman’s late night show over a dozen times over his career. ![]() The David Letterman connection Warren Zevon on Letterman for the final time on October 30th 2002 Johnny Strikes up the band, live from the Capitol theatre in 1982 The guitar and the drums mixed with the lyrics and energy that only Warren Zevon could bring to a song is a deadly combination. “Johhny is my main man, he’s the keeper of the keys, he’ll put your mind at ease he’s guaranteed to please, back by popular demand“. Take one of his earlier songs Johnny Strikes up the band he grabs up with the guitar instantly, “ dry your eyes my little friend, let me take you by the hand, freddy gettin ready, rocksteady, when Johnny Strikes up the band” Zevon has our attention, he’s about to paint us a story with his lyrics and we’ll soon know. To me Warren Zevon is a mix of the writing of Charles Bukowski and the lyrical sensibilities and genius of Bob Dylan. The fact that they never really broke out and became as popular as Bob Dylan, Neil Young or Johnny Cash. I don’t understand how people have not been replaying some of these songs. “except in dreams you’re never really free” This whole song captures his wild nature and the guitar, piano and the drums and beat of the song are endlessly replayable. The alliteration of the line “little old lady got mutilated late last night” it sticks in my head it’s wild and it’s classic Warren Zevon at his finest. Werewolves of London is such a catchy song and the lyrics are so visceral and jump out of the radio when you play it. That’s how you start a song and get someone interested right away. Right off the bat “ I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand“. It is insane its energetic and it’s one of the catchiest songs ever created. It kicks right off its short, sweet it’s to the point. My own personal favourite song of Zevon’s has got to be Werewolves of London. Warren tells a story and paints a picture with every one of his songs. I love their originality and feeling of loss, pain, passion and excitement in his lyrics and voice. I’ve often driven for hours just listening to his songs. ![]() There’s complete concerts on YouTube and all of his songs are on YouTube and Spotify. If I can get at least 1 person to at least give his music a chance I believe that you’ll be hooked on his style. “We buy books because we believe we’re buying the time to read them”īefore I get going here I’m going to make a little list of my favourite of his songs. Warren Zevon is one of those talented artists that people in the music industry loved and appreciated but honestly I’ve never met a person who was a fan of him or who even knew who he was, which was a shock to me to be honest because he really is a story teller and his songs feel raw, gritty and have a certain bad ass undertone to them. Warren Zevon can tell a story of werewolves he can chronicle the ballad of Frank and Jesse James, take us into the tale of Roland the headless Thompson gunner he can pull on our heart strings with keep me in your heart and his rendition of Bob Dylan’s Knockin on heavens door. ![]() Warren zevon to me is the epitome of cool he is the absolute defenition of a lyrical genius. Zevon has some of the coolest, funkiest, darkest, funny and heartbreaking songs I’ve ever heard. This will be my honest and yeah probably hyperbolic feelings and thoughts on who I believe to be the greatest singer / songwriter that nobody really knows of. Warren William Zevon was born on January 24th 1947 in Chicago, Illinois, United States.

I’m not sure if you know this about me, but breakfast is my favorite meal. These were great and very easy to make.I like the do-ahead-ness of the recipe and it certainly beats, both is price and taste, "convenience" waffles (either powder or already made) available in grocery stores.There’s nothing like buttermilk waffles that are perfectly crispy on the outside, light and airy inside, and full of flavor all around.īe sure to sign up for my email… to get new recipes and ideas in your inbox! I too, liked the convenience of preparing the dry ingredients ahead of time. We can imagine lots of variations for this recipe. This was pretty good but we may try using a little less water next time if we use fruit. Freezing the fruit first made it easier to chop evenly. Another variation we tried was to chop fruit into tiny pieces and combine it with the batter before spooning it on the waffle iron. We also experimented with sprinkling cinnamon over the batter after spooning it on the waffle iron. These waffles turned out very well for us.nice and tender. I would make again simply because I don't have another waffle recipe However my kids really enjoyed them the first day. I added vanilla extract maybe I will add more next time. Yum!! These waffles were delicious! Adding vanilla gives them a little more taste, but they were awesome! They were fantastic! I froze the leftovers to make in the toaster. (My other waffle recipe has to rise overnight.)īased on the reviews before mine, I added 1/2 tsp of nutmeg and 2 tsp vanilla for a little flavor. I thought these were delicious! They used ingredients I already had in my cabinets and didn't require preparation ahead of time. I am sure they'll be just as good popped in the toaster straight from the freezer. I am glad that there are a few waffles left over, though. Everything was so yummy we stuffed ourselves and couldn't get up from the table for an hour. I made these for a Mother's Day brunch with the recipe for cinnamon syrup in the Double Cinnamon French Toast and the Caramelized Bacon (all Epicurious). I made these with fresh buttermilk, by substituting equal parts buttermilk for the water and omitting the powdered buttermilk. PS: Try scattering dried cranberries on the preheated waffle iron immediately before adding batter. It's (these waffles) have become a weekend tradition at my house. This recipe allows me to make delicious waffles for me and my family with almost no effort. I'm not always at the top of my game early on weekend mornings, but I love a good breakfast. The best thing about this recipe is its make-ahead ability. Even better if you use 25% whole wheat flour. I think I might add vanilla extract next time, too. We would like it more if we could make this recipe lighter,fluffier and possible crispier on the outside.Īs per other reviewer, I substituted the dry buttermilk powder for REAl buttermilk. I used real buttermilk and added vanilla, as suggested by many reviewers. We add a bit of vanilla, and occasionally a chopped apple with cinnamon. This recipe is fantastic for easy prep.we make the mix the night before, the week before, and it is delicious. The waffles turned out very light with a nice texture. Had to substitute milk & lemon juice for buttermilk. I traded my best cow for magic beans and all I had left of her was her milk. Husband thought they were the best I have ever made, very light and fluffy. ![]() Web scraping domains with fingerprint-linked tracking or dynamically generated websites.If you are an eCommerce manager, you will need such browsers to minimize the risk by using unrelated eBay, Amazon, and payment profiles.Dropshippers use such applications to spread business via many stores without linking all the stores to one owner.Increasing the reach of affiliate links through multiple ads, forums, and social media accounts needs an anti-detect web surfer.You also need to access sites from different locations and IPs.

Graham declined to comment through a spokesperson. Although they are not the first among evangelicals to publicly charge Franklin Graham with undermining the memory of his father, the fact that they are bringing the charge from within the family brings powerful momentum to it. In a response to his uncle’s post, Tchividjian wrote with withering sarcasm:īoth have written several books, separately and together, about their grandfather and his worldwide ministry, which was rooted in the North Carolina mountains near Asheville. That was too much for another Billy Graham descendant, his grandson Aram Tchividjian. Trump was the man for this hour in the history for our nation." My father knew, believed in him & voted for him. "I hadn’t shared who my father voted for in 2016 but because of article, I felt it necessary share now. So Franklin fired back at the magazine with a powerful riposte to his millions of social-media followers: But the insult was compounded by the fact that Christianity Today had been founded by his recently deceased father, Billy Graham, the revered evangelist often called America’s Pastor. To Graham, it was bad enough to read such an attack on Trump. Franklin Graham, the scathing editorial in Christianity Today last year calling his friend Donald Trump “a leader of grossly immoral character” and urging that Trump be “removed from office” was heretical. ![]() She especially feels called to share the Dharma with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, activists, educators, youth, artists, and families. ![]() She provides individual spiritual mentoring, teaches and leads retreats internationally, and is known for interweaving art, play, nature, ecology, and embodied mindfulness practice in her teaching.

Using Seidr it was believed that Odin could place mental binds on enemies as well as use it to give Vikings clarity of thought in the chaos of war. Therefore, it is possible that the Valknut was a symbol of this sorcery, in which Odin was the master, hence another reason why the Valknut is associated with Odin. This association is because the shape of the Valknut symbol has a link to mental trickery which in Norse was considered Seidr practice. There are a lot of meanings that could be derived from the Valknut symbol, beginning with Seidr magic. Some scholars, however, dismiss this theory in favor of the connection between Odin and the Valknut symbol. It also makes sense in the context of death, since Hrungnir was considered the spirit of winter, darkness, night, and the grave. The description fits because the symbol represents warriors slain in battle, and Hrungnir was a warrior killed in battle. Scholars believe that his heart may have been the Valknut symbol. In the story, Hrungnir’s heart was said to have been made of stone and shaped with three sharp corners. Hrungnir the brawler was a fearless and great giant warrior, who was in a great battle with Thor, who ended up killing him. One of the theories proposed by scholars concerning the meaning and origin of the Valknut is the story of Hrungnir’s heart in the Prose Edda. Also, the artistic depictions that featured Odin and the Valknut are believed to represent the afterlife. It is believed that the Valknut was the symbol Odin used to perform the mental bind. The other account where the Valknut is referred to is when talking about Odin’s ability to bind and unbind the human mind. The description is vague but appears to be similar to the Valknut. One of them is in the description of Hrungnir’s heart which was said to have been made of stone and had three corners. There are also two accounts of the symbol in the 13 th century Prose Edda. Other artifacts include some Anglo-Saxon gold finger rings from the 8 th and 9 th century AD, the Nene River Ring, and the wooden bed in an Oseberg ship that was buried near Tønsberg in Norway. The two famous artifacts that contained the original Valknut symbol are the Tängelgårda stone and the Stora Hammars I stone. What is known about it today is a result of archeologists piecing together the different contexts and uses of the Valknut from the past. The symbol however appears in many of the ancient Germanic and Scandinavian artifacts, although its original name was never written next to the symbol. The origin of the Valknut is as ambiguous as the symbol itself. This was an indication that Valknut maybe Odin’s symbol, the god of death and war, known to select the souls of fallen warriors in battle. The symbol was also at times depicted alongside Odin and his trusted animal companions. ![]() This name was given to it because the symbol was associated with death and found on burial grounds and cremation urns. The name is therefore taken to mean the knot of the fallen warriors in battle. The term Valknut comes from two Norwegian words, ‘Varl’ meaning slain warrior and ‘knut’ meaning knot. The tricursal design, however, has three additional angles at the center. Regardless of the design the symbol has three sharp 60-degree angles, two-point upwards, and four-point downwards, two to the left and two to the right. The other design is the unicursal design which appears as three triangles created from a continuous line. The first is the Borromean or tricursal design, which involves three separate triangles that appear to be interlocked together. The Valknut is depicted as three interlocking triangles that appear in two main designs. The Valknut is a Norwegian term that was given to the symbol based on its uses and the places where the symbol was discovered. The Valknut is an ancient symbol in Norse culture that is believed to be dated so far back that its original name is not known. |
