    Nightzzz
    I'm late - for a very important date! I have a white rabbit to meet in my dreams. Maybe if I turn out the light and close my eyes I can still catch him... Good at researching things on the internet, bad at scheduling sleep :) Good morning Rich, goodnight moon. Zzzz.

    Where's my towel?
    I'm on a roller coaster and need to wipe up some tears (watching that Ani video Geo posted brought me way back <3), and now some sweat of almost-panic... I just read somewhere that they will be printing the Ticketmaster tickets (for Chicago) presently and they'll be mailed out in 10-14 days. Oof. I'm leaving town on a jet train in 15.5 days... More decisions. Not my strong suit. Luckily I heard Box of Rain at work today, but still. What to do? xo ps. YES on the spousal journal. Sissy just sent me hear contribution :)

    In 1913, 58,000 veterans of the Battle of Gettysburg (from both sides) traveled back to Pennsylvania and camped on the battlefield to mark the 50th anniversary of that struggle (as well as the national holiday). In 1938, 1,800 veterans (of all the Civil War battles) again gathered to mark 75th anniversary. (Reports from the time suggest that some of the fellas at the second event were still not happy with their tent location.)

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!

GD 50th update: We are now answering emails for anyone who is still in "limbo". We do not have seat locations at this time. The Fabulous Envelope Art contest winners have selected and notified! 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

Trying to contain my enthusiasm - a Pending Charge just posted to my credit card from music today. It's different than a posted transaction. Kind of like a hotel pre-authorization.

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.

I think that's my cue that I've been on-line too long today. Therefore, I shall bid you good night and sweet dreams.
