La vie en rose translation

Eyes that make mine lower 

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens 


A laugh that is lost on his mouth 
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche 

Here is the portrait without retouching 
Voilà le portrait sans retouches 

From the man I belong to
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens
When he takes me in his arms 
Quand il me prend dans ses bras 

He whispers to me 
Il me parle tout bas 

I see life in pink
Je vois la vie en rose
He tell me love words 
Il me dit des mots d'amour 

Everyday words 
Des mots de tous les jours 

And it does something to me
Et ça me fait quelque chose
He has entered in my heart 
Il est entré dans mon cœur 

A slice of happiness 
Une part de bonheur 

That I know the reason
Dont je connais la cause
It's him for me, me for him in life 
C'est lui pour moi, moi pour lui dans la vie 

He told me, swore it for life
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie
And as soon as I see him 
Et dès que je l'aperçois 

So I feel Inside me 
Alors je sens en moi 

My heart beating
Mon cœur qui bat
Nights of endless love 
Des nuits d'amour à plus finir 

A great happiness that takes its place 
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place 

Trouble, sorrow fades away 
Des ennuis, des chagrins s'effacent 

Happy, happy to die
Heureux, heureux à en mourir
When he takes me in his arms 
Quand il me prend dans ses bras 

He whispers to me 
Il me parle tout bas 

I see life in pink
Je vois la vie en rose
He tell me love words 
Il me dit des mots d'amour 

Everyday words 
Des mots de tous les jours 

And it does something to me
Et ça me fait quelque chose
He has entered in my heart 
Il est entré dans mon cœur 

A slice of happiness 
Une part de bonheur 

That I know the reason
Dont je connais la cause
It's you for me, me for you in life 
C'est toi pour moi, moi pour toi dans la vie 

He told me, swore it for life
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie
And as soon as I see you 
Et dès que je t'aperçois 

So I feel inside me 
Alors je sens dans moi 

My heart beating 
Mon cœur qui bat 

La la, la la, la la 
La la, la la, la la 

La la, la la, ah la 
La la, la la, ah la 

La la la la
La la la la



I'm listening to my old Apple Music songs, through bluetooth on my stereo. There was one time when I could buy a few 99 cent songs once in a while. 

My son is building a Saturn V rocket lego set his brother's godfather gave us.

My sons don't live with me and a relative got Covid, so they were quarantining for 2 weeks. I can see him facetime and whatnot, but it's great to see him live. My daughter's mother just moved out, and when she's working I get my daughter. So playing the old songs is somehow comforting nostalgia to me. Bjork, They Might Be Giants, Lenny Kravitz "On The Run", Regina Spektor, Junior Kimbrough, Martin, Medeski and Wood, Grant Green, Jay-Z, Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd, Song for Sharon by Joni Mitchell, Heather Headley "He is".

Manet and Degas

  Brilliant video explaining the exhibit. Go to the Met and see the exhibit! It's really quite special.  In the last gallery the painting this sketch is based off of, of the execution of a Mexican president. The painting has been cut into sections, and the surviving Degas has reassembled them. NY Times review

The case for Harris

Motley Kamuka Blog endorses Kamala Harris. In general, Trump just wants to lower taxes on the rich, and do nothing, sell whatever influence he can to line his pockets. Apparently the emoluments clause in the constitution has no teeth. Harris has a set of ideas about policy that are fairly middle of the road. In most countries she's would be seen as a centrist. Spin about her radical agendas are exaggerated.  I'm not sure how he got past " grab them by the pussy ", but he did and here we are. Women: Obviously the idea of giving women pregnancy tests at the borders of the state, and then if they come back and don't have a baby, they go to jail, isn't really what most women want. Pick Harris.  I understand if you think abortion is murder, maybe you've been told that by the Catholic church, which has the same ideal of Buddhism that you don't kill--so follow your religion for yourself. Not everyone is Christian or Buddhist or even has a religion. Women are ...

Gravity's Rainbow Notes Franz Pokler

From pp 397-433: Franz Pokler , a German rocket scientist. He is marginally associated with early attempts to develop rockets in the 1920's. During the war, Weissmann controls Pokler, giving him routine assignments and keeping him in line by allowing him yearly visits from a girl who he says is Pokler's daughter. The girl spends the rest of the year in a concentration camp, and Weissmann's implied threat is that she will be killed if Pokler fails to cooperate with Weissmann's scheme. Weissmann's purpose is to use Pokler to make one small part for the A4 rocket. In the end, having performed his task, Pokler is released; Slothrop meets him living quietly in the ruins of a children's village after the end of the war. His daughter also survives.
