    Ok Miami good afternoon here in da Buff... Greg....Rumor has it opener on 7/3 is gonna be Beiber and da boys covering Rock You Like A Hurricaine.... Phil on lead vocals.... Going out to the Sunshine Daydreamers as we slowly approach the horizon, a beautiful sunset and a pot of gold at the end of that rainbow.... Somewhere over the rainbow Way up high And the dreams that you dreamed of Once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow Blue birds fly And the dreams that you dreamed of Dreams really do come true ooh oh Someday I'll wish upon a star Wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where trouble melts like lemon drops High above the chimney top That's where you'll find me Oh, somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly And the dream that you dare to, Oh why, oh why can't I? Well I see trees of green and red roses too, I'll watch them bloom for me and you And I think to myself What a wonderful world Well I see skies of blue And I see clouds of white And the brightness of day I like the dark And I think to myself What a wonderful world The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky Are also on the faces of people passing by I see friends shaking hands Singing, "How do you do?" They're really singing, "I...I love you." I hear babies cry and I watch them grow, They'll learn much more than we'll know And I think to myself What a wonderful world world Someday I'll wish upon a star, Wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where trouble melts like lemon drops High above the chimney top That's where you'll find me Oh, somewhere over the rainbow way up high And the dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I? I? Sarge pass me the Kleenex....

    Where do I Post?
    Good morning, I'm looking for information on where to post an invitation. There are probably more than a few people rolling down the road right now looking for a place to pitch a tent, park a bus, an RV or a car while en route to Chicago. We are on a patch of ground in Nor'western Illinois and have some room if folks need a place to stop for a few or overnight. The gate is open; we don't want anything in return (AKA - free). If there are any takers, we will rent a porta-pot. All we ask is that anyone stopping/staying treat the place with respect. Please let me know when you have a chance, Thanks, J and T

Lisa darling just for you, now on K DED, it's not Althea but we aren't at Soldier Field quite yet.... Lost my shape-Trying to act casual! Can't stop-I might end up in the hospital I'm changing my shape-I feel like an accident They're back!-To explain their experience Isn't it weird/Looks too obscure to me Wasting away/And that was their policy I'm ready to leave-I push the fact in front of me Facts lost-Facts are never what they seem to be Nothing there!-No information left of any kind Lifting my head-Looking for danger signs There was a line/There was a formula Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us There was a line/There was a forula Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes Lifting my head/looking around inside The island of doubt-It's like the taste of medicine Working by hindsight-Got the message from the oxygen Making a list-Find the cost of opportunity Doing it right-Facts are useless in emergencies The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes Lifting my head/Looking around inside. Facts are simple and facts are straight Facts are lazy and facts are late Facts all come with points of view Facts don't do what I want them to Facts just twist the truth around Facts are living turned inside out Facts are getting the best of them Facts are nothing on the face of things Facts don't stain the furniture Facts go out and slam the door Facts are written all over your face Facts continue to change their shape I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...

    @The evening shift, and all that Jazz
    So there we was, minding our own respective businesses, when something special happened. Maybe it was a song, perhaps a smile, perchance a dream; something to stir the soul. Looking up at the crisp clear night sky, with all the stars a twinkling, we know all is well. For beneath us ba dus rumbles its rhythmic beat, and the tires hum that familiar tune as we roll down that ribbon so nicely lit up in the moonlight. We know we are in good hands, resting and relaxing while we review the past 48 hours. A grateful dus briver personally takes our evening requests, and KDED seems spot on. Even Puppers is sprawled out without a care in the world. You see, that first special song, smile or dream has been nurtured, watered and well tended. New life has sprung from historic moments relived and retold as we join together in excited whisper, bursts of laughter, transitioning into robust song. A magical mystery tour is not a mystery any longer, but indeed it stays magical. Smiles abound. Tis Ladies night at the moonlight lounge. In honor of your joy, love, excitement and purpose; to acknowledge the past days, weeks and months sharing in that zest for making this corner of the world more like home, we lift our glasses and salute you! Sometimes the lights all shining on you, and ladies, it is our pleasure to let it shine on you during this whee part of our journey. As we rumble along, singing our songs, let's support each other and give thanks for friends and family. For those who joined us for a time but left too early, we honor you. For those who are just hopping on, we extend a hand. For the vet who has joined us, we share a seat. For the sick or those called away for other pressing matters, we'll lend an ear and listen for you. What awaits us at dawn, when the night sky softens and the day begins to break...what wonders are before us. Wait...shhhhh....do you hear it..do you feel it...do you see it...please do share it...and thankee kindly, one and all. geoperchancetodreammeister

Tony, thanks for keeping an eye out for those ticket deals that can help a fellow SDer! It's much appreciated. I PM'd will74, but no dice. He hasn't gotten any other offers, but cheap obstructed view SC tix are not very appealing, even when you sweeten the deal.

Sorry just got back from inspecting the bus..don't worry about the scratches, and yes ma'am you really know how to off-road...but there nothing wrong with kicking up a little mud every now and then..right? Your fashion sense is impeccable...the fuzzy dice and the doggy whose head goes boing boing boing when you hit a bump really make this bus feel like home...oh yeah, that mean people suck bumper sticker rocks... So Geeky....Bus license reinstated.... Baby you can drive my car ummm bus 8 days a week!!!!! Have a fantastic day! One more thing, Lisa is that a real poncho or is that a Sears poncho...

.... And how does he know I sleep by a Medicine Jar? COSMIC DEBRIS Enter—the transitive nightfall of diamonds. There are crop circles dancing in a wave on Neptune, with corn rows gleaming from the man on Mars. Tail feathers toss toward a flute near Venus. Fly me like a rainbow to the nearest star. Sirius B has nothing for me. Anunnaki women want to dig my scene. Don’t take me seriously; I’m bluffing like a rookie with a pair of queens. Moon Unit lands with a Zappa on Pluto. Yoda on Saturn plays steel guitar. Moses rides in on a doggone quasar. Captain Trips sleeps by a medicine jar. Sirius B has something for me. Hot Nibiru babes try to make my dream. Don’t greet me furiously. I’ll drop you like a comet heading to the east. Exit—the transitive nightfall of diamonds. Frank Zappa

Still no tickets yet. I offered for a Field GA ticket on ebay at $600 and was countered at $650 but that was just before the PPV was announced yesterday so I'm inclined to turn it down at this point.

And I still can't decide if I'm bringing relish or chopped green onions. I saw the GD play Green Onions. I believe it was Rochester. I never saw them play relish, but I think I saw some in Jerry's beard once. May I'll just bring catsup.

RRRRRRGGGGGRRRRRRRRR, you still driving this thingy? Being that we are an environmentally friendly group, I have to assume the bus is powered by clean burning no emissions natural gas. So, I am here to help (yes, I'm still here for all of those shaking their heads!) BTW, it is not nice to shake us too much, we might get dizzy. So since I just hopped back on the bus (y'all)(again), there's no need to stop for gas.... ...I had a gigantic burrito for lunch (and it's not the veggie type).
