* The Little Girl *
Artist: John Michael Montgomery
Composer: Harley Allen

Her parents never took the young girl to church
Never spoke of His name
Never read her His word
Two non-believers walking lost in this world
Took their baby with them
What a sad little girl

Her daddy drank all day and mommy did drugs
Never wanted to play
Or give kisses and hugs
She’d watch the TV and sit there on the couch
While her mom fell asleep
And her daddy went out

And the drinking and the fighting
Just got worse every night
Behind their couch she’d be hiding
Oh what a sad little life

And like it always does, the bad just got worse
With every slap and every curse
Until her daddy in a drunk rage one night
Used a gun on her mom and then took his life

And some people from the city took the girl far away
To a new mom and a new dad
kisses and hugs everyday

Her first day of Sunday school the teacher walked in
And a small little girl
Stared at a picture of Him
She said I know that man up there on that cross
I don’t know His name
But I know He got off

Cause He was there in my old house
And held me close to His side
As I hid there behind our couch
The night that my parents died…

* Definitely not for those who have Acrophobia (Fear of Heights)! Lol! *

I almost took the N95 8GB, but in the end went with the E90.  Having known all the problems that were talked about, fingerprints/keyboard touching screen, hissing sound before calls, wobbly feet…etc however, I still think no phone can come close to this one, so I ordered it. After almost 3 months of waiting, I finally parted with my money and got the Nokia E90 Communicator! Amazed by it still I am 101% satisfied with this fantastic device with no regrets of buying this all in one communication device!

Oh I also got a Proporta book-type Aluminum lined leather case, a 2 pack Martin Fields screen protector and a spare BP-4L battery to go with my phone!

* Portal Ending Song – Still Alive *
   Artist: Ellen McLain / Jonathan Coulton

This was a triumph
I’m making a note here: huge success
It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction
Aperture Science
We do what we must because we can
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are dead
But there’s no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake
And the science gets done and you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive

I’m not even angry
I’m being so sincere right now
Even though you broke my heart and killed me
And tore me to pieces
And threw every piece into a fire
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you
Now these points of data make a beautiful line
And we’re out of beta, we’re releasing on time
So I’m glad I got burned, think of all the things we learned
For the people who are still alive

Go ahead and leave me
I think I’d prefer to stay inside
Maybe you’ll find someone else to help you
Maybe Black Mesa
That was a joke, ha ha, fat chance
Anyway this cake is great
It’s so delicious and moist
Look at me still talking when there’s science to do
When I look out there it makes me glad I’m not you
I’ve experiments to run, there is research to be done
On the people who are still alive

And believe me I am still alive
I’m doing science and I’m still alive
I feel fantastic and I’m still alive
And while you’re dying I’ll be still alive
And when you’re dead I will be still alive
Still alive
Still alive

* Tonight I’ll Let My Memory Take Me Home *
Artist: Mark Chesnutt

It’s been too long
Since I traveled down
That ol’ gravel road
On the north end of town
And I need a taste
Of the good ol’ days gone
So tonight I let my memory
Take me home

And I’ll be seventeen on my way to pick her up
With a half a dozen roses
In my daddy’s pickup truck
And for a little while I’ll just hold her in my arms
Dream on and on and on
Tonight I’ll let my memory take me home

We grew apart and I moved away
It’s a choice I regret
A little more every day
God I love to go back
To the good ol’ days gone
So tonight I’ll let my memory
Take me home

And I’ll be seventeen on my way to pick her up
With a half a dozen roses
In my daddy’s pickup truck
And for a little while I’ll just hold her in my arms
Dream on and on and on
Tonight I’ll let my memory take me home

Yesterday ain’t that far away
I’ll just close my eyes
And drift away

I’ll be seventeen on my way to pick her up
With a half a dozen roses
In my daddy’s pickup truck
And for a little while I’ll just hold her in my arms
Dream on and on and on
Tonight I’ll let my memory take me home
Dream on and on and on
Tonight I’ll let my memory take me home

To join all the hype surrounding the big blockbuster movie, Nokia will launch the N93i Transformers Edition somewhere in Q3 this year. Basically the phone is the same as the original N93i, it just bundles some movie-specific content like “Transformers” game, three thematic background images, and two exclusive ring-tones. Plus, the special edition phone is packaged in a specially designed box, and will be accompanied by instructions for accessing content.

As a reminder, this isn’t the first time Nokia is pushing movies on their phones — there were the Nokia N93 Mission Impossible 3 and the Nokia N80 The Da Vinci Code phone versions.
