    @ the more things change
    the more they stay the same! Now here you go again You say you want your freedom Well, who am I to keep you down? It's only right that you should Play the way you feel it But listen carefully to the sound Of your loneliness Like a heartbeat.. drives you mad In the stillness of remembering what you had And what you lost... And what you had... And what you lost [Chorus:] Thunder only happens when it's raining Players only love you when they're playing Say... Women... they will come and they will go When the rain washes you clean... you'll know, you'll know Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions I keep my visions to myself It's only me Who wants to wrap around your dreams and... Have you any dreams you'd like to sell? Dreams of loneliness... Like a heartbeat... drives you mad... In the stillness of remembering what you had... And what you lost... And what you had... And what you lost [Chorus 2x]

    Or does it?.... Only love can make it rain The way the beach is kissed by the sea Only love can make it rain Like the sweat of lovers layin' in the fields Love, reign o'er me Love, reign o'er me Rain on me, rain on me Only love can bring the rain That makes you yearn to the sky Only love can bring the rain That falls like tears from on high Love, reign o'er me Rain on me, rain on me Love, reign o'er me Rain on me, rain on me On the dry and dusty road The nights we spend apart alone I need to get back home to cool, cool rain I can't sleep, and I lay, and I think The night is hot and black as ink Oh God, I need a drink of cool, cool rain Love, reign o'er me Reign o'er me, o'er me, o'er me Love, reign o'er me, o'er me Love Goodnight Miami, Goodnight Irene.....and all the ships at sea.....pun intended.....

    @Lets go get stoned.....
    Half a mile from the county fairAnd the rain keep pourin' down Me and Billy standin' there With a silver half a crown Hands are full of a fishin' rod And the tackle on our backs We just stood there gettin' wet With our backs against the fence Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Hope it don't rain all day [Chorus:] And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like Jelly Roll And it stoned me And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like goin' home And it stoned me Then the rain let up and the sun came up And we were gettin' dry Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by So we jumped right in and the driver grinned And he dropped us up the road We looked at the swim and we jumped right in Not to mention fishing poles Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Let it run all over me [Chorus] On the way back home we sang a song But our throats were getting dry Then we saw the man from across the road With the sunshine in his eyes Well he lived all alone in his own little home With a great big gallon jar There were bottles too, one for me and you And he said Hey! There you are Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Get it myself from the mountain stream

    All aboard...da raft? I've got extra paddles and some flippers too just in case. Grab your lifevest and pass me a pina colada! Puppers, where is the sunscreen? I burn red as a crab in the sun! On waves of love my heart is breaking And stranger still my self control I can't rely on anymore New tides surprise - my world it's changing Within this frame an ocean swells - behind this smile I know it well Beneath a lover's moon I'm waiting I am the pilot of the storm - adrift in pleasure I may drown I built this ship - it is my making And furthermore my self control I can't rely on anymore I know why - I know why Crazy on a ship of fools Crazy on a ship of fools Turn this boat around - back to my loving ground Who claims that no man is an island While I land up in jeopardy - more distant from you by degrees I walk this shore in isolation And at my feet eternity draws ever sweeter plans for me I know why - I know why Crazy on a ship of fools Crazy on a ship of fools Turn this boat around - back to my loving ground Oh no, oh no - ship of fools --

    Sorry......
    Sold ba dus, too many miles, brakes shot, no A/C and its friggin hot here.... Good news.....I got incense, coffee, dog n cat food and a weird ass raft from these guys named Huck n Jim...they were following Phish upstream and needed gas money..... Problem is I'm up the creek without a paddle....anyone have a spare paddle and we can go see Carlos n Phil at Lock'n and Warren and Bobby with Ratdog...... Sarge is wearing his lifeguard garb, with goggles.....so we are safe..... Get on your cabana wear......and have one more piña colada..... With a lotta love and Just a little luck we can carry on..... This one goes out to those who are in a lull after the Chicago party....... Gotta get better in a little while.....Eric and Duane told me so...it must be true! A friend of mine just had a real bad time. You see, his life was shattered and he lost his mind. His girl ran off along with his best friend, And through emotional stress he brought his life to an end. It was such a tragedy, But that's the way it's got to be. Life goes on. Life goes on. It happens ev'ry day. So appreciate what you got Before it's taken away. Life will hit you When you're unprepared, So be grateful and take all That you can while you're there. Get that frown off your head, 'Cause you're a long time dead. Life goes on and on and on. Life goes on and on and on. No use runnin' 'round lookin' scared, Life could get you when you're unaware. One day it's gonna come, so you better accept it. Life will hit you when you least expect it. And one day when you are gone, You know that life will still go on. But no one'll care if you've been good, bad, right or wrong. Life will still go on. My bank went broke and my well ran dry. It was almost enough to contemplate suicide. I turned on the gas, but I soon realized I hadn't settled my bill so they cut off my supply. No matter how I try, it seems I'm too young to die. Life goes on and on and on. Life goes on and on and on. Tornado, cyclone and hurricane Can batter the houses with the thunder and rain. Blizzards can blow; the waves hit the shore, But the people recover and come back for more. Somehow the people fight back, even the future looks black. Life goes on and on and on. Life goes on and on and on.

Can we put rgggrrrrr at the wheel of the ship/car/bus/train ? Either one of those vehicles or all of them at once, I think he can handle it. I would feel all at once safer and immensely frightened (how do you say it a scary sort of safe) knowing that he could spin us out of Never Never land and over the rainbow and off to willow farm without missing a beat or without missing, 9, 11, or 7 beats depending. -- Tom

Here is what you do: 1) Go to edit, insert passwod, and check the box "delete picture". Hit save; 2) Log out; leave the page totally, leave dead.net (I know, it hurts, but relax); 3) Log back in, note that there is no picture, you are merely a shadow of your former self; 4) Continue messing around, with no picture, do this for a day or so; 5) Go back to your account, log in and choose new picture. Hit save; That should get you your new/old avatar back. The point is that you have to let dead.net relax a couple of days after making a change, before hitting him with a new change. He is elderly and set in his ways, and he has to get used to the idea you messed with him. It'll be ok, honest. ciao- geofredpoobahmeister

I second that, rrrrrgrrrrr, and want to wish all SD'ers where applicable, a blessed Good Friday, and a joyous Passover or Easter. I'm on business travel next week out the the left coast (SFO) but as always, checking mail. BTW, rrrrrgrrrrr, I believe Totem is out of pocket for a few days on a camping trip. But it is 4/3 today and the first show is 7/3 so that's an easy one for us :-) Cheers everyone !!

Our beloved Mayor Klangstone has been detected, selected and elected on two occasions. He has also been corrected many times. He is the only mayor we have ever known. The infamous Rob Ford received honorable mention once or twice, but Mayor Klangstone was obviously far more colorful.
