    @my San Antonio Rose....
    If you ever feel lonesome, and your down in San Antone,Beg, steal, or borrow two nickels or a dime, and call me on the Phone. I'll meet you at Alamo mission, and we can say our prayers, The Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mother will heal us as we kneel there. In the moonlight, in the midnight, in the moonlight, midnight Moonlight. If you ever feel sorrow for the deeds you have done, With no hope for tomorrow in the setting of the sun. And the ocean is howling of things that might have been, And that last good morning sunrise will be the brightest you've ever Seen. In the moonlight, in the midnight, in the moonlight, midnight Moonlight. If you ever feel sorrow for the deeds you have done, With no hope for tomorrow in the setting of the sun.

    Deep within my heart Lies a melody, A song of old San Antone, Where in dreams I live With a memory, Beneath the stars all alone. Well, it was there I found Beside the Alamo Enchantment strange as the Blue up above, For that moonlit pass That only he would know Still hears my broken song of love. Moon in all your splendor, Known only to my heart, Call back my rose, Rose of San Antone! Lips so sweet and tender, Like petals fallin apart, Speak once again of my love, my own Broken song, Empty words I know Still live in my heart all alone, For that moonlit pass by the Alamo, And rose my rose of San Antone! [Instrumental] Well the, Moon in all your splendor, Known only to my heart, Call back my rose, Rose of San Antone! Lips so sweet and tender, Like petals fallin apart, Speak once again of my love, my own Broken song, Empty words I know Still live in my heart all alone, Well that moonlit pass by the Alamo, And rose my rose of San Antone. heh...

    South of the border, down Mexico wayThat's where I fell in love when the stars above came out to play And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray South of the border, down Mexico way She was a vision in old Spanish lace Just for a tender while, I kissed the smile upon her face For it was fiesta and we were so gay South of the border, down Mexico way Then she smiled as she whispered manana Never dreaming that we were parting And I lied as I whispered manana For our tomorrow never came South of the border, I rode back one day There in a veil of white, by candle light, she knelt to pray But the mission bells told me, that I mustn't stay South of the border, down Mexico way Ay ay ay ay, ay ay ay ay Ay ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay

    they only serve to lengthen the work week, no other purpose that I can see.. The song came and went Like the times that we spent Hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent I laughed and she'd smile It would last for awhile You don't know what you got till you lose it all again Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go A cool evening dance Listening to the bluegrass band takes the chill From the air till they play the last song I'll do my time Keeping you off my mind but there's moments That I find, I'm not feeling so strong Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go Running down by the lake shore She did love the sound of a summer storm It played on the lake like a mandolin Now it's washing her away once again Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go The boat's steaming in I watch the side wheel spin and I Think about her when I hear that whistle blow I can't change my mind I knew all the time that she'd go But that's a choice I made long ago Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go

GM I'm not trying for SC tickets as all my eggs are in the Chicago basket but I waited almost 3 months for my answer...happiness to have gotten a response from Elvis that my email had been sent and I didn't get it so yes indeed I'm in. So comparatively 5 days seems great. Good luck and a beautiful day to all.

and the sweet memory of singing harmony to Bob Marley songs with the strolling guitar player at the (nearly deserted) Wyndham Rosehall restaurant. The smile on his face when he realized I knew every word to Redemption Song was like a sunrise. ...we sang every song that driver knew. Back to the salt mines. I can pick & shovel, too.

You should not be fretting ever about not having half and half for your Blue Mountain (or your Kona for that matter). You should be sad that it was likely drip...you want to see what it brings out? Use a vac-pot (syphon) or pour-over...or better yet, an espresso made by an experienced barista...THEN you will never want anything else but Blue Mountain and Reggae I don't leave home without proper coffee gear...that is a must to start any day!

It was a difficult task, choosing the finalists, as each and every envelope is an incredible piece of art, many being museum worthy. http://www.gdtstoo.com/GDTSTOOupdate.html

Mine was a picture of a cow eating grass... "Where's the Grass?" you ask.. "Cow ate it all" I say.. "Where's the cow?" you ask... "He left, no sense hanging around..." Apparently, the GDTStoo folks thought it looked too much like Rgrgrgr's Polar bear/snowstorm envelope. got my pink slip early on...only it was white too. Thank you for your attention. We now return you to your regular scheduled forum posts.

Lots of posts on the big board of peoples CC's being charged for their SC tickets. Any SD'ers have any luck? My ability to get tickets continues to be a whopping 0 %. And I'm not even going to SC - they'll be miracled to any SD'er or head who wants them @ face.

I did not attempt to get tickets to SC because I didn't think I could afford the time away and the $ for going to SC AND FTW, despite my lovely wife's encouragement to go for it (last run and all)...I am now having serious not-a-buyer's remorse for passing on the SC lotto. I still may try to figure out a way to get to SC but need to continue to ruminate on that for a while. so, if anything is still available after my rumination period, I'll just havta look around.
