    @One fish, Two fish, Red fish...
    Green fish!!!....was the answer some schmuck gave for the first question on who wants to be a millionaire.... Stupid show..... The million dollar question was, What rock act won the first Grammy in the new category of best Hard Rock / Metal Album in 1988? No cheating please...... I been thinking lately about the people I meet The carwash on the corner and the hole in the street The way my ankles hurt with shoes on my feet And I'm wondering if I'm gonna see tomorrow. Father forgive us for what we must do You forgive us we'll forgive you We'll forgive each other till we both turn blue Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven. I was in the army but I never dug a trench I used to bust my knuckles on a monkey wrench Then I'd go to town and drink and give the girls a pinch But I don't think they ever even noticed me. Fish and whistle, whistle and fish Eat everything that they put on your dish And when we get through we'll make a big wish That we never have to do this again again? again? On my very first job I said thank you and please They made me scrub a parking lot down on my knees Then I got fired for being scared of bees And they only give me fifty cents an hour.

    @ Fish in the Sea
    here fishy fishy fishy... Seventy-three men sailed up From the San Francisco Bay, Rolled off of their ship And here's what they had to say. "We're callin' everyone to ride along To another shore, We can laugh our lives away and be free once more." But no one heard them callin', No one came at all, 'Cause they were too busy watchin' Those old raindrops fall. As a storm was blowin' Out on the peaceful sea, Seventy-three men sailed off To history. Ride, captain ride Upon your mystery ship, Be amazed at the friends You have here on your trip. Ride captain ride Upon your mystery ship, On your way to a world That others might have missed. [Instrumental] Seventy-three men sailed up From the San Francisco Bay, Got off their ship And here's what they had to say.

    We had so much fun! But it's always better when you catch some nice fish! Getting home to Seattle was more of an adventure than I was ready for on no sleep! Storms in CHI delayed us a couple times. Home at 2:00 AM. Off to work at 7:00! Karma keeps forgetting I am old! On the plus side the radio played a nice mix of Dead tunes on the boat!

    Coming right up.... BTW that was one reel big fish!!!! Creeping up the blind side, shinning up the wall stealing thru the dark of night Climbing thru a window, stepping to the floor checking to the left and the right Picking up the pieces, putting them away something doesn't feel quite right Help me someone, let me out of here then out of the dark was suddenly heard welcome to the Home by the Sea Coming out the woodwork, thru the open door pushing from above and below shadows but no substance, in the shape of men round and down and sideways they go adrift without direction, eyes that hold despair then as one they sign and they moan Help us someone, let us out of here living here so long undisturbed dreaming of the time we were free so many years ago before the time when we first heard welcome to the Home by the Sea

    @ can't stop laughing
    They were so serious and yet so ridiculous! This song is sorta the same... Is love so fragile And the heart so hollow Shatter with words Impossible to follow You're saying I'm fragile I try not to be I search only For something I can't see I have my own life And I am stronger Than you know But I carry this feeling When you walked into my house That you won't be walking out the door Still I carry this feeling When you walked into my house That you won't be walking out the door Lovers forever Face to face My city or mountains Stay with me stay I need you to love me I need you today Give to me your leather Take from me My lace You in the moonlight With your sleepy eyes Could you ever love a man like me And you were right When I walked into your house I knew I'd never want to leave Sometimes I'm a strong man Sometimes cold and scared And sometimes I cry But that time I saw you I knew with you to light my nights Somehow I'd get by Lovers forever Face to face My city or mountains Stay with me stay I need you to love me I need you today Give to me your leather Take from me My lace Lovers forever Face to face My city or mountains Stay with me stay I need you to love me I need you today Give to me your leather Take from me My lace Take from me My lace Take from me My lace

    Goodnight to you! This one cracks me up, but it fits so here we go... I'm a little bit country And I'm a little bit rock 'n roll I'm a little bit of Memphis and Nashville With a little bit of Motown in my soul I don't know if it's good or bad But I know I love it so I'm a little bit country And I'm a little bit rock 'n roll He's a little bit gentle, he's a little bit runnin' wild She's a little bit of ??? woman, she's a little bit of jive Don't know if I'm happy or sad My music makes me whole I'm a little bit country And I'm a little bit rock 'n roll I like that peaceful easy feeling of a laid back country song And when I sing my rock n' roll, I can sing it all night long I love my country with all my heart and soul I go out on Saturday night for a little bit of rock 'n roll I know if I'm fellin' right No matter where I go With little bit of country And a little bit of rock 'n roll I like that peaceful easy feeling of a laid back country song And when I sing my rock n' roll, I can sing it all night long I love my country with all my heart and soul I go out on Saturday night for a little bit of rock 'n roll I know if I'm feelin' right No matter where I go With little bit of country And a little bit of rock 'n roll We're a little bit country We're a little bit rock 'n roll

    Love the A frame homes.....and a log cabin is a bonus.... Patience is a virtue, Grasshopper.... Slipping and sliding and playing domino Lefting and then Righting, it's not a crime you know. You gotta tell your story boy, before it's time to go. Are you ready for the country because it's time to go? Are you ready for the country because it's time to go? I was talkin' to the preacher, said God was on my side Then I ran into the hangman, he said it's time to die You gotta tell your story boy, you know the reason why. Are you ready for the country because it's time to go? Are you ready for the country because it's time to go? So Goodnight Irene Goodnight, hey Stella!! and Ellie Mae and all the ships at sea......

I imagine the post-Chitown SD fallout will see a lot of accidental tourism, hijinx and belly laughs--all fueled by the boldest roast in the land. Oh, and the food, we can't forget the food. Some will shine rails, others will patch . . . spreadsheets. From the Florida beaches to the snowbanks of some frozen, underpopulated bastion of all things NFL, and all points west between, Daydreamers will come together with their SD Tees (note--do not mix up that acronym!) and shake hands not as strangers but as newfound friends and family all because of a single ripple in time that occurs every half century or so. No doubt that if the band took a gander at us, they'd say "One month so far."

Just saw on the early morning news that a local man was found dead behind a grocery store dumpster. He was found face down covered with Cornflakes and milk and had a banana sticking out of his ass. The authorities think it was the work of a cereal killer!!! ; )

To drink already today, I think I had better take the wheel. I just had half a veggie burrito and I'm about to re-up on the java (just got some beans called Silken Splendor from a vendor called Philz), so I'm good for a couple hours. Was verbally attacked by a crankster at a bus stop a little while ago for being on my phone (I was emailing the SDers, obvi), so I'm feeling grateful that I have a good attitude and generally try to stay positive (you know. GENERALLY - unless someone really deserves it ;). Okay. I got this - until the scenery gets too goo [sic] then someone else's turn, okay?
