The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be
There is so much hatred war an' poverty.

"Wake Up Everybody" was written by John Whitehead, Gene McFadden and Victor Carstraphen. (The first two were the duo who later brought us "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now." In 2004 Whitehead was murdered in broad daylight outside his Philadelphia home by unknown gunmen. The case remains unsolved. McFadden died of lung cancer a few years later.) It was first recorded by Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes, the front man for whom was, of course, the late, great Teddy Pendergrass, who would be paralyzed in a car accident while allegedly fooling around with his transvestite mistress.
Your mention of John Lennon is interesting. The chorus of the song actually takes issue with a Beatles song: "The world won't get no better if we just let it be."

Hated Pendegrass, just didn't like his style. Interesting that his heartthrob, ladies man image concealed, perhaps, an alternate sexual preference.

The accident occurred on Lincoln Drive, which is a serpentine road with some very tight curves that people drive way too fast on. Teddy slammed his Rolls into a tree. Tenika Watson (she was and is a post-op transgendered person) denies anything was going on in the car.

Day off work and Santa Ana winds today.
Might be a MUP KOM opportunity.

Pendergrass is such an interesting name. There are maybe a million spelling variations like Prendergast, Pendergrast, Prendergrass, Pender, Pendergast, Pendergrass, Penders, Pendy, Pinder, Pinders, Pindy, Prender, Prendergrast, Prendergest, Prindergast, Pendergist and so on. I wonder why it is so hard to get it right.

One thing about the kit spec; They include FD/RD specific shift cables. The front cable was too short for my cable routing.
