    I'd like to thank the Academy...
    Thank You, thank you, hairball fans! I am honored by this esteemed award! I figured the Tapers's Section need a bit of humor to temper the mood. I'm done with cats and hairballs and will proceed to the next Big Issue, whatever it is, when it next comes up in the discussion. Oh, by the way, Tiger Lillies grow wild here in Ottawa. They grow naturally in people's gardens, and they are an intrusive and aggressive flower which will overtake your garden. They are actually considered a weed by some. I have big bunch in my front garden. Ed

    A hint? No...
    Just commenting about Tiger Lillies. Very beautiful flower, but an aggresive interloper. Not like you. You're obviously a sweet, delicate flower, who never ventures far from her flower bed. Except for shows.

    Nah! Know what you mean about the vortex, though. A friend was here last night, and I was telling him about Lily Allen, and the Hairball, etc. and he was looking at me like I'd lost my marbles. But is all good clean fun, with a handful of likeminded folk. If can laugh about the great Lily Allen, I am not despairing as much about other concrete events taking place right now.

    About the Nudie Jacket
    Tigerlilly, check out the topic "Anoyone ever seen this crazy jacket." under recent posts and you will learn about them and check out the Nudie website mentioned. My head is starting to enter this weird vortex of Lilly Allen, Nudie Jackets, Golden Nuggets and Hairballs. I may need to go through detox from this website Do I contradict myself?

    Thank you for the Golden Nugget Award
    Wow, thanks TigerLilly. I feel like I am in the Deadhead Olympics with two awards in one day. Just goes to show what a steady diet of Dicks Picks, Zippy, beat poets and Zen Koans can do for a person. Does this mean I get some free downloads? Or maybe a Nudie Jacket? Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.) Walt Whitman-Song of Myself

    the funny thing is, I think I knew that once. Please excuse me and I'll try to refrain from similar brain death in the future.

I'm sure mixed emotions are involved, but it's pretty cool just the same!

I thought he looked pretty pleased about the whole affair. Good for him, not bad for a California dude, by way of London, England. So...I ordered his new Live at BBC box from Universal in the UK. Received a shipping notification on 6/14, hasn't arrived yet. CB, how long should I wait before I start getting nervous? No idea what a typical overseas delivery would be, and no tracking info either...

Is that a nuclear war, and a coronation of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ?An outstanding halo will prove it to all.

Gratefaldean - in my experience of sending vines, shipping to the US normally takes 10 -14 days so you should get it soon.....hope you do anyway. I have not ordered 'Live at the BBC' yet, but I should do.. Does Thompson live in California now? I had no idea. Anyway he does indeed looks pleased to get some recognition from his home country. Good for him; he is right up there with the best of them..

one suspects this was not on his mind back in the day. Or any other time either. But it's well deserved and it's a treat to see. (And folks, if RT comes to your town and you have not seen him, check him out, and not just because the Queen likes him now!)

Congratulations to Alex Allan on his knighthood. Officially it is for his public service including as the UK Chairman of the Joint Intelligence Committee. But we know it is for his services as a Deadhead, prioprietor of the Grateful Dead Lyric And Song Finder (www.whitegum.com) and author of sleeve notes for the Europe 72 Set.
