    So, we've all had some great conversations interrupted by that misbehaving chatroom lately. Mr. Pid wrote a great song on the subject...

    Feel free to pick them up again here. Or report your more surreal episodes of being booted for misbehaving.

    tasty
    You can find several on line, but basically it's just raw Spanish peanuts and whole cloves. Crush the garlic, leave the skin on. Heat the oil (vegetable or peanut) at about medium (trial and error, too high and the garlic burns before the nuts are crunchy, too low and too much oil is absorbed) add nuts and garlic and whole chili's (the small ones, dried seem to be the best) fry until the nuts are crunchy, more or less depending on your taste, and the garlic should just be turning translucent and still a bit chewy, add the salt, eat. Real good with beer. When I was in the Philippines I would purchase a bag of these from the same street vendor on my way home from work every evening, or to the bar.They seemed to have a much larger peanut then the Spanish ones we get here, but I think any raw peanuts will work quite well. You can also use garlic salt (coarse ground) instead of the sea salt. They use the chili's more in the northern region. In Subic Bay, where I was stationed they used them occasionally, but farther north in the resort city of Baguio, they use more.

I've reported the problem to Jonathan, though of course it's Sunday. As to being able to log on from one computer but not another, I'm as mystified as you are. What happens when you try to log on?

... a national holiday! Why not, give me one really good reason to not have April 20th as a regular holiday. I'd certainly vote for it. Let's start a petition drive...

I read in the online Santa Rosa, California Press Democrat that Mickey Hart's Mass Drums played at Speedway Meadows in Golden Gate Park today. There is an interview with him in the paper. It was part of the Green Apple Festival and free valet bike parking was supplied.Listen for the drums to continue thru the night.

Well, I type in my username & password etc.. the screen flashes (to what should say log in successful ) & there's my name under online users, but login/sign up is also showing. I can't post a comment or the like. Then I try a few more times, just to see inkowurider about 50 times, so I give up in defeat, as I'm seeing posts that I'm all over the place... I'm now sure it has nothing to do with deadnet, which is good. Hells Bells!

Just wanna put that out there. Although not officially part of "the scene" as it were.......a great musician and wonderful human being has left us. Let's all keep him and his family in our thoughts and prayers.

Marye I found this.... Keyboardist Danny Federici, who for four decades played alongside rock star Bruce Springsteen as part of the E Street Band and helped define his rollicking sound, has died of melanoma. He was 58. RIP Danny

I tried getting to the chat room, too. I had as much luck as Buddy. What's going on? Is the chat room in the process of being moved back to its previous location, or has something gone kerblooey with it...again?

The new chat room is not functioning at this point in time. To put it in layman's terms: it's FUBAR. Or you could say it's broken, it's malfunctioning, it's not happenin', it's ruined, it's busted, it's kaput, it's dead in a NOT grateful way, it's conked out, it's crashed, it's quit workin', it's not usable...Capiche?

I think the GD have done pretty much the same thing, just ask the Rhino company... And I believe they did it again a couple of days ago... I have a feeling there's a nice sized tax write-off somewhere in all that press conference hoopla... YMMV

I thought it would be very cool ... well never mind it was cool a few minutes ago. So with the chatroom down on the staging site, does this mean it is 'bout to reappear here on the regular site. Carefull G-mom, the junk you sell could end up on Antique Road and appraised at a cool million, or not.
