I forgot catering. peace and dead dreams,pk

    AND
    AND: it will be solar powered! OK, cool, add the video, too. this is why I opened up the product development to the 'committee' here, I can't think up, (let alone remember) everything. I'm barely rebemering my own blood type these days, as it tends to be Johnny Red, 80 proof. RH factor NEGATIVE. I do think, if I consider this from a very prudent business point of view, that the sub-woofer, multi-speaker, thing must be an option. I learned on the road, people do not want a 'pack' of stickers, they usually want to choose one at a time. I went to the WharfRaton School of Business in Hell's Kitchen, youngest graduate at age 11. I learned during my internship. People want options. oh, scratch resistant surface, a vairety of colours, tie-dye of various shapes and forms, various dead logos and trademarks, available. or, as I would choose for my Deadhead Shuffle: basic black, the only tiny little trademark for me, would be THIS: peace.

    shall we call this, uhhh, (cough, cough) a pipe dream?? ( -; I certainly hope not. OK, if you boys tell me this is technically possible, well get up on that wagon! we're going up north to put the word in the streets. I know a guy, who knows a guy, who knows a guy who is a close personal friend of Steve Jobs' personal trainer. ( -; I got the name, and watch for the upcoming manufacture and release of...................... big drum roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! **** The Deadhead Shuffle (loud cheers and roars of applause echo through the land) ( -; now who will deal with Rhino to get them to release the rights to all of the stuff in the vault? peace.

    50 TB hard drives?
    Probably not by Christmas 2008, but I'd be surprised if you didn't see them by Christmas 2010. Plenty of 1 TB drives on the market already. Now if Intel can just get Tesla's electrical power broadcasting thing actually functioning, bye bye to the battery toting mule as well... Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

    don't know who's backs that strong
    ya know CCj, this can be done! the capacity amount isn't a problem, the shows plus all video(u forgot that,ccj) can be done( even throw on kesey's bus TRIP) and the headphones are a cinch, docking and shuffle already done, hey how about the worlds smallest external LOUD speakers with subwoofer that fit in the back where the battery was! ...because the battery pack would need a mule to carry it around for you : ) and u know what happens if the horse won't pull....

    What I really want
    what I really want is a 50,000 GB hard drive type i-pod type cigarrette pack sized contraption that plays the highest quality flac/shn (or whatever is the best) digital music, that includes EVERY SINGLE SECOND of every show, every acid test, every last tiny bit of tape of the good o'l grateful dead, EVER recorded, it must have docking capability, AND I want it to have noise reduction head phones. ( -; AND I want it by Christmas! ok, just to keep everybody happy, my dream i-pod can have a shuffle feature for the people who like compliations. hows about that? ( -; peace. another quick pop in here.

    thank you, thank you very much. just a quick pop in, mom since I got some decently speeded inet access for a few days. won't be "back" til fall. the real credit for the love post goes to the songwriters and the folks who run the lyric website, http://www3.clearlight.com/~acsa/intro.htm as far as I can tell, this is the only time the grateful dead sang the word "mom" in the Merle Haggard cover: "Dear old daddy, rest his soul, left my mom a heavy load She tried so very hard to fill his shoes Working hours without rest, wanted me to have the best She tried to raise me right but I refused" love and peace.

always been one of my personal 'missions' to spread the music around and sharing it with folks anywhere and everywhere... I recently had occassion to share a Jerry band version of Mission in the Rain with a bunch of rural, rice harvesting octogenarians. pretty cool to see the fingers and feets tapping to the tune and the smiles slowly forming.

The Dark Star Orchestra paid tribute to the Grateful Dead Friday night at Washington DC's 9:30 Club with a set of covers originally by the legendary band. Jersey City Councilman Steve Lipski then did his part to pay tribute to the band onstage by urinating off a balcony onto the crowd below during their set. He was arrested and charged with simple assault. A source from the club told the Daily News, "We've dealt with this man before. He's never peed on anybody, but he gets really belligerent and drunk." Lipski has been a councilman in Jersey City since 2001. Now that is sick!

I thought it was kind of common in Jersey City to pee anywhere you wanted... well, if you fall under the 'grandfather' clause, It DEPENDS, I suppose. image hosted by ImageVenue.com yuk yuk yuk, ( -;

This man would like to speak with the Jersey councilman whenever possible about a similar incident at his private residence... Photobucket "The task is, not so much to see what no one has yet seen; but to think what nobody has yet thought, about that which everybody sees. ." - Erwin Schrödinger

My little brother once had a stuffed animal named bobo, think it was a bear but really kinda looked like a monkey. Used to call my Father bobo, his name was Bob. Isn't there a class of shoes called bobo's, kinda like some cheap chuck's. Had a saying that when something was lame we would say, man this is bobo. Think there are some cookies called coco bobo's. There is a cafe in Vicenza, Italy called "cafe bobo". oh bobo oh bobo. If there was a hobo wearing cheap chuck's would he be called a bobo hobo? Remember Sheriff Lobo, he was kinda bobo. Guess you could say that that councilman is pretty bobo. Wasn't there a clown named bobo. Damn sleep deprivation gets me goofy.

...this is kinda funny, in a "oops dropped a $100,000 toolkit" sorta way. From spaceweather.com (you can go there to get directions on where to look): ISS Toolbag BRIGHTNESS: 6 (use binoculars) On Nov. 18, 2008, spacewalking astronaut Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper dropped her backpack-sized toolbag and it floated away from the International Space Station. The errant bag, about as big as a hiker's backpack, is now orbiting Earth. It is visible through binoculars and small telescopes. ********************************************* I have a sigfile! --> www.kindveggieburritos.com *********************************************
