What free idea said "it's not a downer to listen..." Also it sounds like you got some stuff to get out, and we certainly don't mind listening. Hang in there Chubsib, take it day by day, and perhaps come back here from time to time, where people are kind. Is at least one more guy here who knows first hand what you've been through in Irak. He's still there, so perhaps you can hook up with writing to him here? Peace and inner strength to you Chubsib,and lots and lots of good vibes. ********************************** Don't part with your illusions.

Nothin but love

I haven't posted here ever before... used to hang out back in the 90's in a chat called "710 Ashbury", and haven't had the time since about 98', so a lot to say but will try and keep it short... haven't seen a show since Phoenix 94, just kinda faded away after Uncle Jerry went to play that great gig in the sky. Much has happened in my life since then. Kinda drifted in and out of the rainbow family for a few years, then joined the machine and became a heavy equipment operator of all things. That took me out to Reno and into a union and... well I'll save that for later, but, it eventually took me to Iraq working for a company out of Houston called KBR. It is truely amazing for me to look back at it all and see just how far I have strayed from who I really am in the name of the almighty dollar. I spent more time living in a warzone listening to Jerry and Bobby and Phil then I had until rescently since my last show. I'm home now and definitely scrambled in the head. Because I was a civilian contractor, there are no benefits available for counseling, no one will hire me, and I am so deep in debt, I can't even see the sun anymore. I only sleep 2 to 3 hours at a time and only 4 or 5 times a week. I keep my doors locked and have been living my life infront of my computer trying to get out of my head... but, I found a couple of my old cd's cleaning the house the other day and I have been back on the bus. I feel, just from the music, that the hole that war has left in me is slowly, very slowly, starting to close. I've been home for over a year and more than half my friends don't even know I'm home. Honestly, just so I know it myself, I'm not living this way out of fear, more, I feel that this is my pennance of sorts... I have created my own cell... I have nothing but love for all mankind, but the images trapped in my head still won't go away, so, I guess I'm askin for nothin but love... I could really use some good vibes and words of encouragement to know, weather you all agree with war, the war, or anything related to that whole scene, I'm still alive and its never too late. Sorry for the downer. Thanks for reading my vent, and if anyone cares to, feel free to drop me a private message or post a responce. Thanks again and, from what is left of my heart, never let go of the music.Chubs I be.

Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul.Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon. Politicians say more taxes will solve everything. Eve of destruction, tax deduction, city inspectors, bill collectors, Mod clothes in demand, population out of hand, suicide, too many bills, Hippies moving to the hills. People all over the world are shouting, 'End the war.' And the band played on. Great googalooga, can't you hear me talking to you. Sayin'... ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Let me hear ya, let me hear ya, let me hear ya. Sayin'... ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey.

woah

ok gdaed, thats a helluva hand man. what's the next game brother. How's the trout fishing where your at, AZ right. here's some good luck vibes for your next lazy day by the brook.

Norman

peace through musicHey Now , been out of touch for a while so here's an update.....Norman is still in intensive care, but is being weaned off the ventilator. Breathing on his own for 8 hours a day. It has been 4 weeks today, since he went in to the hospital. They deprived him of oxygen and or blood pressure for four to five minutes and he had a bilateral stroke. He wakes up and watches tv with us and can move all his limbs although not on command. Our hope is that he will go to a rehab center soon, but there are some doom and gloom professionals at the hospital that would like us to make other decisions such as ending his life. Thank you for all your positive vibes and the Love that you've sent him. The legal matter has been put off until after the new year. Wishing Peace and Love and Happiness to all.

norman and mary-sunshine

sounds like he has made some improvement, may love and healing be with you.

peace through music Just wanted to jot a quick note on my way out the door to the hospital to see Norm. When your sinking in the mire of doubt and or depression just knowing that there are souls out there who take the time to care and write a few words of encouragement can be inspiring. It gives you the strength to carry on. Thank you all for this unconditional Love. And thank the stars for Marye and all the work you do connecting us all. Holiday blessings to all. To Sunshine Daydream Bob; Not sure what's wrong but sending Good Love vibes to you!

EMERGENCY CRISIS PROBLEM

Can anybody help GratefulMom out? She has DSO tix for tonight, and got stood up twice, and is in a bad way. is sort notice but very very important no idea what to do from here ********************************** Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone, you will still exist, but you have ceased to live. Samuel Clemens

wadda ya do

when yer so down that ya can't talk to other people for fear you'll bum them out but ya need ta talk to someone so bad it makes yer chest hurt? when ya don't wanna eat, smoke, drink, sleep, stay awake, sit, stand, lie down but yer hungry thirsty tired and alone.........music doesn't help, nor does quiet, so scared ya wanna puke and can't. suicide is too much work and leaves a mess for someone else to clean up and bums THEM out, and ya know THAT ain't right, and ya know it's just selfish to think about yerself but ya know nobody else will.........and even if they do there's nothing they can do for you.................

OH JOHNMAN

come in the chatroom-talk to me. is all I can say to do gotta walk the kids to a friend's and then will come back and wait 4 u! ********************************** Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone, you will still exist, but you have ceased to live. Samuel Clemens

johnman

hold on, my good (john)man- the sun will rise again-- we are reaching out to you because of your value in this world i hope you made contact with tigerlilly or someone else who could help ease your pain and isolation i'm sending you good vibes & good wishes & i'll keep you in my prayers- tomorrow is a new year (thank goodness!). thinking of you-- xo c caroline

johnman,

Do what you are doing, my friend. Talk when you can, it can help to endure the pain. That pain is the unwelcome balance the joy that we are blessed to experience. Recognize the great gift of your skeptical humor and wit that you share regularly with us. And know that there are times that your contribution offers us all here a 'cookie' that is a unique 'johnmanism'. I can hear the angst in your post but note the warm empathy for others as well. Again that contrast is striking. And welcome. Move on as you can, brother, and stop and rest when needed. Depression often takes herculean efforts to endure. It is exhasting. Honor your feelings, but care to not linger on those thoughts that are destructive to you and tax your sense of yourself. Persevere and remind yourself of your path and how far you have come. Be gentle with yourself. "Shall we go?...you and I, while we can?" Take care, Tim The Truth is realized in an instant, the act is practiced step by step.

Johnman

We are with you. Take care of yourself. Find joy in your life with your son, remember how important you are to each other. I wish you much peace to your spirit. I really just want to ditto what Oroboros said above. Hal If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

what they all said

Folks above put it better than I could, bless 'em, but many good vibes and hopes for better times in the new year to you. We will get by!

Oroboros the Wise

That was again a FINE piece of writing.********************************** Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone, you will still exist, but you have ceased to live. Samuel Clemens

I`m with Marye

I could`nt have put together any of that , not that well anyway .. Am beamimg you warm positive vibes Johnman !! Hope you get to feeling better .. we`r here for you brother ..

Dear Johnman ~

Feel Good Vibes Headed your way!! I'll be thinking about you Bro :) Enjoy the Cookie one bite at a time & Fuck those flyin Monkeys ~ PEACE

Oroboros does write well...

...iknowurider has a way with words, also ;^). Hope the new morning of a new year finds you in a better place johnman, or at least in a better position to deal with things. My Latin-speaking dog suggests "Illegitimum non carborundum" (a Latin professor would prefer "Noli sinere te ab improbis opprimi") but whichever fits best: Don't let the bastards wear you down, whoever/whatever the bastards may be. Cheers, stop by for a cookie when you're in town, Mark ********************************************* I have a sigfile! --> www.kindveggieburritos.com *********************************************

hey johnman

Sending some peace into your thoughts to go along with the out pouring of love from some of the best people around. This will be a better year, the start of a new era, where hope overcomes despair, and love overcomes hate. The spirit and love you have put forth in these pages has overcome much despair and brightened many hearts. Now pull some of that love deep within you and shine it on yourself johnman, feel your love for yourself, we all feel it for you. Oh, and do what iknowyourider, the princess of technicolor posts, said - enjoy that cookie,I think we all enjoy them a little more thinking of you. peace and hope brother,pk

Johnman

Peace bro, and hang in there. Nothing left to do but...

Sorry Gigi

I would have loved to have helped you out, but I'm far far away.

My father

is having quadruple bypass surgery today, just found out, he had a heart cath this am and they are going in right away My mom is with him and no relative near (they do have some close friends with them). They are half the country away from me right now in Texas where they go for the winter. One of my brothers is flying in tonight to be with them. I will be heading down in the next couple of weeks to help with the recovery and healing but it is very hard to be so far away right now.
