Blackbird fly, blackbird fly. Into the light of the dark black night. This song is my life right now. I can't stop listening to it. Posted by Kevin Wood.

Just Take a Swing. One Man's Search For the Best in Life. Tuesday, November 30, 2010. How I Lost and Kept Off 30 Pounds of Fat. This isn’t unique to me. My brother had his own journey.
