For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for August 01, 2015

If the wind, how does it know John and Phil’s names?

Probably about 50 feet away through the trees is someone in a nice warm hunting/fishing cabin.

That was a great song…

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind.

Lynn’s Notes:

A false alarm set off by a geological research helicopter sent the Hercules rescue team in the wrong direction. With just the canoe for shelter, the lost men waited anxiously for signs of help. Every sound, the wind, the waves on the water, small movements in the brush, sounded like the engine of a plane. Rod had left specific instructions on where he would be, and couldn’t understand why it was taking so long for help to arrive.

My idea of roughing it is a Motel 6.

Probably a nice man with a chainsaw and hockey mask.

If they found some milled wood product[for shelter],they may be near civilization. IMO

If it’s foggy, there’s no wind. Must be voices.

Actually it’s Red Green and his nephew talkn’, eh? I can almost hear the chainsaw in the background . . .

They call the wind Mariah…………

Do you hear banjos ?

The Hillbillies from “Deliverance”

Maybe it’s just “wind” in the Victorian context.

Actually, the wind cries Mariah ….

Away out here they’ve got a name for rain and wind and fire.

The rain is Tess, the fire’s Joe.

They call the wind Mariah.

Mariah blows the stars around and sets the clouds a-flyin’.

Mariah makes the mountains sound like folks was out there dyin’.

Mariah. (Mariah). Mariah. (Mariah).They call the wind Mariah..Before I knew Mariah’s name and heard her wail and whinin’, I had a gal.…And She had me and the sun was always shinin’.

But then one day I left my gal.

I left her far behind me and now I’m lost, so gol’ darn lost

not even God can find me.

Mariah. (Mariah.) Mariah. (Mariah.)They call the wind Mariah..Out here they have a name for rain and wind and fire only.

But, When you’re lost and all alone, there ain’t no name for lonely.…And I’m a lost and lonely man without a star to guide me.…Mariah blow my love to me.

I need my gal beside me ….

I guess no one remembers the song…“And They Call the Wind Mariah”

The answer is blowing in the wind.
