@there's trouble in River City.....

never thought I'd bring this one out....After all Harold Hill was the Music Man..... Well, a woman who'll kiss on the very first date Is usually a hussy And a woman who'll kiss on the second time out Is anything but fussy But a woman who'll wait till the third time around Head in the clouds, feet on the ground She's the girl you're glad you found She's your shipoopi Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi The girl who's hard to get Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi But you can win her yet Walk her once just to raise the curtain Then you walk around twice and make for certain Once more in the flower garden She will never get sore if you beg her pardon Do re me fa so la si Do si la sol fa mi re do Squeeze her once, when she isn't lookin' If you get a squeeze back, that's fancy cookin' Once more for a pepper-upper She will never get sore on her way to supper Do re me fa sol la si Do si do Now little ol' Sal was a no-gal As anyone could see Lookit her now - she's a go-gal Who only goes for me Squeeze her once, when she isn't lookin' If you get a squeeze back, that's fancy cookin' Once more for a pepper-upper She will never get sore on her way to supper Do re me fa sol la si Do si do Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi The girl who's hard to get Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi But you can win her yet Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi The girl who's hard to get Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi But you can win her yet, shipoopi

@ Everything Counts In Large Amounts

Gotta keep on floating down the river... Division is confusion It can drive you up a wall Like any good illusion It ain't anything at all One was always fine before We figured out how to get one more Now it's another and another Still we ain't got nothing at all Let me tell you somethin' Every thing is one thing, honey Every thing's been done There ain't nothin' new under the sun It adds up to one, it all adds up The lines we draw between things But there's a wall around my heart Talk to climb the big things And still I don't know where to start Fallen angel?s making plans Breaking deals and shaking hands Build it up and you hope that it stands Out further and further apart Let me tell you somethin' Every thing is one thing, honey Every thing's been done There ain't nothin' new under the sun It adds up to one, it all adds up It all adds up, it all adds up It all adds up, it all adds up Every thing is one thing, honey Every thing's been done There ain't nothin' new under the sun It adds up to one, it all adds Every thing is one thing, honey Every thing's been done There ain't nothin' new under the sun It adds up to one, it all adds up It all adds up, it all adds up It all adds up, it all adds up It all adds up, it all adds up It all adds up, it all adds up It all adds up, it all adds up

we opened this forum March 21st, 2015 and have achieved 4000 posts, thanks to the last of the Mohicans....quite a Little Feat..... Let's go backwards down the number line....nahhh that sounds a bit too Phishy to me..... (ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one) We're leaving together, But still it's farewell. And maybe we'll come back To earth, who can tell? I guess there is no one to blame We're leaving ground (leaving ground) Will things ever be the same again? It's the final countdown. The final countdown Oh! We're heading for Venus (Venus) And still we stand tall 'Cause maybe they've seen us (seen us) And welcome us all, yeah. With so many light years to go And things to be found (to be found) I'm sure that we'll all miss her so. It's the final countdown... The final count down [2x] The final count down Oh! It's the final count down The final count down [2x] It's the final count down We're leaving together The final count down We'll all miss her so. It's the final count down. Oh!

@ POST 4,000!!!!

jumpin the gun cause I want to be # 4,000 In the year 2525, if man is still alive If woman can survive, they may find In the year 3535 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie Everything you think, do and say Is in the pill you took today In the year 4545 You ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes You won't find a thing to chew Nobody's gonna look at you In the year 5555 Your arms hangin' limp at your sides Your legs got nothin' to do Some machine's doin' that for you In the year 6565 Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too From the bottom of a long glass tube In the year 7510 If God's a-coming, He oughta make it by then Maybe He'll look around Himself and say "Guess it's time for the Judgement Day" In the year 8510 God is gonna shake His mighty head He'll either say, "I'm pleased where man has been" Or tear it down, and start again In the year 9595 I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive He's taken everything this old earth can give And he ain't put back nothing Now it's been ten thousand years, man has cried a billion tears For what, he never knew, now man's reign is through But through eternal night, the twinkling of starlight So very far away, maybe it's only yesterday

@ Happy Friday

What a gorgeous day it is here in STL. Sun is shining, nice cool air and things seem to be pretty calm in the city. When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand and nothing, whoa, nothing is going right. Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there to brighten up even your darkest nights. You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am I'll come running to see you again. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend. If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds and that old north wind should begin to blow, keep your head together and call my name out loud. Soon I will be knocking upon your door. You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am I'll come running to see you again. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call and I'll be there. Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend? People can be so cold. They'll hurt you and desert you. Well, they'll take your soul if you let them, oh yeah, but don't you let them. You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am I'll come running to see you again. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call, Lord, I'll be there, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend. You've got a friend. Ain't it good to know you've got a friend. Ain't it good to know you've got a friend. Oh, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend.

whazzat u say?

I can't figure out 80% of what everyone is talking about in here. Some days this sub-forum feels like I walked into a party where everyone else is trippin' and I'm not. Am I the only one?

@mkav

And you know something is happening but you don't know what it is...do you Mr. Jones? sorry mkav.... Timothy Leary isn't dead, he's alive and well and fueling the tie dye squirrels, who are running the treadmill powering the minds of the great and near great....

It's Alright

I'll Let You Be In My Dream If I Can Be In Your Dream

rger thin man

exactly!

There It Is, You Got It Going Now

Now go out on your front porch and sing: Yeah, it's comin' 'long fine And there ain't no water 'round Well if your house catches on fire And there ain't no water 'round Throw the baby out the window Let the god dam shack burn down Come ti yi yippe Ti yi yippee yippee yay Come ti yi yippe Ti yi yippee yippee yay

Whazzat explained

Hi campers and camperettes- I've had three different kind folks bring up the fact that the Sunshine Daydream thread seems to be written in code, or that they can't quite get a handle on the issues being discussed. Please keep in mind that our Bus driver and resident wit is channeling the not only the spirit of the GD in their space-jams, but also the personalities of Jack Kerouac, Hunter Thompson, Neal Cassady and the allegorical spaciness inherent in those many years of special Kool-aid tests that Tom Wolfe wrote about so eloquently back in'68. The idea is for all of us to think "out-of-the-box" as we prepare for this grand reunion, or as some might say, just get out-there with it all (in a friendly way). Also, the Merry Pranksters took a bit of a bus ride back in '64, and the spirit of those sketchy fragmented experiences and stories, birthed during that journey, are also prevalent in the various comments we are all reading. As we get closer to our destination, please know that there may be a gradual increase in the number of posts that actually make sense, and will help to guide us to a safe landing. Until then, keep your tin-foil hats on with antennas pointed in the proper direction, tighten those seat-belts and enjoy the ride. For we are not just the best at what we do, we are the only ones that do what we do. cheers- Geo-the-voice-of-reason-meister

@voice of reason...

so that's what we're doing? Cool.... Hey you tie dye squirrel...back on the treadmill... take it if you need it if you don't just pass it on.... Rocket J Squirrel.....out!

Momma Told Me Not To Come

This place is going to get stranger, so let's get on with the show, let's go. Next up abstract references to Talking Heads lyrics.

It ain't necessarily so....

But ya never know... I'm tense and nervous and I can't relax, I can't sleep cuz my beds on fire Don't touch me I'm a real live wire.... Ya all better run, run, run, run, run away! I'm talking a lot but I'm not saying anything! Mr T......out

Here's Your Ticket, Pack Your Bag, Time For Jumpin' Overboard

Horse is calling the shots. It's his music I'm listening to now.

@horse

Reminds me of Mongo from Blazing Saddles....

There's a Lot of Simularities

Except Horse polished off the whole pot of chili and forced his way into the campfire scene. Don't know what to with him sometimes.

don't know what to do?

take it to the river. give it a good scrubbing

Keep The Faith Mayor

Sorry to here things are still a struggle. Everyone's still pulling for you. Got To Get Better In A Little While.

@Dudley

Derek and the Dominos > Grateful Dead....for me....blasphemy to most but honesty is best....said it b4 will say it again...in my life and my travels ...Layla and other assorted love songs rings my bell... Makes me wanna cry....

Stones Tickets

I got 2 tickets to the Stones at Arrowhead, which holds 70,000. Club Level 235 directly opposite the stage at the other end. Row 2. $268 each. Seems like a bargain, huh? Steve

@Steve

$117 here in the Buff brah....

Hot, Hot, Hot

Nice, the Stones. Start Me Up. Enjoy!!!

@rrrrgrrr

saw the Dead in '85 at Merriweather Post do "Keep on Growing" Bobby on vocals, not sure, it may be the only time they did it.

@boo boo

Think it was...I was there.... Lovin me tedeschi trucks... Second coming of mad dogs and Englishmen meet Derek and the Dominos..... There's a thorn tree in the garden....

have to step away for a while

The lack of a Santa Clara announcement, communication or even an acknowledgement of the possibility has driven me to depression. The lack of a response from the organization and its company/administration I consider seriously insulting. I'm taking a break from the day-to-day postings. Will check PMs and e-mails. Love you all, take care of each other...

so many

good memories, nothing left to doo....

Start me up

Just wanted to add my 2 cents, actually, 0.24 CAn, put it in the tip jar rereggrrr. Basically, thanks Geo for Keeping it real, and that's some Crazy horse James, just another canadian reference. Figure I bettter get it in before your avatar changes tomorrow. Is there a Dr. In the house? Klang is hanging on just barely.

zero

Throw another one in there, but who's counting?

@sweet Virginia

gotta scrape the shit right off your shoes.... @klang....it is what it is...Chicago or bust brah.... Don't abdicate the mayoral throne....Rob Ford wants in big time.... And If you want to you can lean on me....

@cain Smell The Horse

Horse has prohibited any future avatar changes. He has his CID package and he will be in Chicago. He will be at the front of the Pit, for his tickets are superior to mine. He is in absolute control of things on this end. It's all one long song.

@dudley

What's your horses name????? Call him Mr T....please gotta shake this persona....

New Klang theme song...

GDTRFB.... Godspeed, dude...this bus will still be rollin' if/when you decide come back. Until then, I'm outta gas bro trying to talk you down from off the ledge. All my lovin', Your Ringmaster. ps - many qualified SD peeps on the waiting list dying for name space on the back of our T so man-up and decide my friend - we "go to print" soon.

Cool By Him

Horse is his official stage name, verifiable on his website. But he's cool with "T" as a nickname. He's excited about the bling, but refuses to get a Mohawk. He just completed performing a masterful rendition of Bob Dylan's 115Th Dream with sunglasses on.

geo whazzat

I figured most of what you said is what's happnin but I'm still lost most of the time. it's all "teeth like baseballs, eyes like jellied fire"

@T horse....

He's a horse with T mane...thanks for takin the load off off me and put the load right on T..... Klang can have the bling..... Trade it for a ducat perhaps....

@ringmaster....

The bus came by and I got on... There was Mr T At the wheel on a bus to Never ever land...... Repeat after me.... I'm a deadhead and I miss Jerry.... Now in monotone all in unison ala David Gans... I know.... rrrrrrgrrrrr all in....

Rgggggggrrrrrrrr for Mayor

I nominate.

@beelzebubs brethren

sorry I brive a dus.... I nominate that Rob Ford supporter....Dorothy the meek... but thanks for the support.....

@briver

Maybe we should forego the mayoral election. Only leads to corruption and empty promises anyway. As long as the dus arrives ontime it's all good.

@#88

we don't need no stinking mayor..but the kid from TO would kick ass... I recommend Klang chime in....he still has the throne And yes the dus will always be on time......as long as I'm briving....

Brive us to the Jubilee

That acid reunion looks to be the Deal. (and hoping Kaner recovers in time to save us in the post-season)

All Down The Line

rrrrgrrrr always keeps this bus right on time and yet he manages to keep the destination a mystery. Or is it, we know where we're going but we don't know where we've been? Either way we are best off leaving the driving to him. He is the walrus!!!!

Whazzat Revisited: the Pic-I-Nic, the Mayor and the Horse

Not withstanding my earlier characterizations, and continuing the discussion, there are many ways one can view the thoughts and the happenstance responses that find their ways onto our fine Sunshine Daydream Home Thread. For instance, within the rambling stories that weave their collective ways through these fine forum threads, there is also a discussion, a sermon, a pleading, a dream, a dance, a song or three, and a reaching out. Whether it is from a Brother or a Sister or a Father or a Mother or a Daughter or a Son, it is real...or maybe not. But guaranteed, Somebody cares about Something, be it Real or Imagined, and they are letting all of us know. Turn up the Bass, Tune the Banjo, shut up during Space, I need a ticket, Who's on first, it's important, whatever it is. So we reads, and we posts, and we explore. We share. We anticipate, we plan, we rejoice and we get saddened....hopefully, the saddened moments are brief and fleeting, and if they are not, they are somewhat lessened by the comfort our family can give. We are fed, and we feed others. We are family. Sunshine DayDream: At Once a Thread, a Home, A Couch, A Bus, A Book, a Church, a Soapbox and Thank you very much rgrgrrgr, a dining room. A Pic-i-Nic? Certainly. over there, at the SE corner of the Buckingham Fountain, in that little grove of trees. Meet-ups start as soon as you can get there, and end after the last people say adios. Bring your own everything, and a bit more for your neighbor. A Mayor? We have several, they meet here. Not unlike the park bench over at the town square in Maintown, USA, populated with those Who Make The Important Decisions, they have this place. No one is in charge, each gets to be a blowhard as the baton is passed, and all issues are carefully pondered on before a proposal is offered or a decision is made. Each is a Mayor in His/Her own right. All of us get to drive, to give advice, to give directions or ask questions or provide answers or extend a helping hand or share an encouraging word. A Horse? Now that's another issue altogether. Hey you over there with your hand up...tell us about this horse deal. Film at Eleven...thanks for staying to the end....or is it.... PS I Miss Jerry too! geopondermeister
