    @ Yeah, the worst is over now
    Blue Skies, sunshine, birds are singing... Marvelous, simply marvelous darling! doo doo-doo doo doo doo doo When I think back On all the crap I learned in high school It's a wonder I can think at all And though my lack of education Hasn't hurt me none I can read the writing on the wall Kodachrome They give us those nice bright colors They give us the greens of summers Makes you think all the world's a sunny day I got a Nikon camera I love to take a photograph So mama don't take my Kodachrome away If you took all the girls I knew When I was single And brought them all together for one night I know they'd never match my sweet imagination Everything looks worse in black and white

    And a glorious Friday it is indeed....More coffee.... Let's let the Cyrkle have the floor.... I should have known you'd bid me farewell There's a lesson to be learned from this and I learned it very well Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me And I think it's gonna be all right Yeah, the worst is over now The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball You never care for secrets I confide For you I'm just an ornament, somethin' for your pride Always runnin', never carin', that's the life you live Stolen minutes of your time were all ya had to give And I think it's gonna be all right Yeah, the worst is over now The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball The story's in the past with nothin' to recall I've got my life to live and I don't need you at all The roller-coaster ride we took is nearly at an end I bought my ticket with my tears, that's all I'm gonna spend And I think it's gonna be all right Yeah, the worst is over now The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball Oh, oh, oh I think it's gonna be all right Yeah, the worst is over now The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

    Hey Now, Happy Friday
    Good morning beautiful people, glad to have everyone aboard this makeshift raft. I got a song it ain't got no melody... I'm gonna sing it to my friends. Will it go round in circles?

    Play a song for me
    Coffee's on...Friday morning sun coming up...Just me and the pups rocking this morning... Hey ! Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to Hey ! Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels To be wanderin' I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way I promise to go under it.

    Geeky you are indeed correct, once you are part of it you can't go back. We are a unique breed. Kind, tolerant, accepting. The spirit of Jerry is still alive and well.... As long as we allow it to be so..... As Neil said.... First time I heard "Lie A Rolling Stone" I felt that magic and took it home Gave it a twist and made it mine But nothing was as good as the very first time Poetry rollin' off his tongue Like Hank Williams chewin' bubble gum Askin me "how does it feel?" Rollin down the road in a dream of mine Two lane tour through a state of mind. Singin in the place where I first saw Roy Playin that place gave me so much joy Flash bulbs poppin' at the stage door Brand new song with familiar chords All the time lookin for somethin' new Walkin with the devil on a twisted road Listenin to the Dead on the radio That old time music esed to soothe my soul If I ever get home I'm gonna let the good times roll Coffee is on.....

    For me there will never be anything like FTW. The music was amazing! The stadium was lit as if from an eternal flame. But as I ponder my experience I only remember the music as it relates to the people. Thousands swaying to Ripple in perfect time. SDD family all around me. Teaching me about the music. Sharing the vibe. Becoming family... Althea hugs and high fives! Locking eyes with Chuck walking up the stairs then they start playing Built to Last... Listening to the music. Sharing the vibe. Family all around me. I want to thank each and every one of you.. For sharing the music For sharing your time For catching my tears For sharing my joys I think I'm a Dead Head I know I miss Jerry I love you all!

    CRACK THE SKY????? holy cow
    I thought I was the only one in the world anymore who had even HEARD of them. I can remember their being at a campus event in a venue that generally had bad cover bands who butchered the stones and other popular rock acts of the time. We did not know what to make of these guys, except they were different, and good! I don't recall specifics, as that was long ago...

Can't speak for Kris, never met the man......but grew up in Queens, had beers with Joey and their second drummer Marky Bell aka Ramone at CBGB after Tommy left....low maintenance....and chill....did not take themselves seriously at all. In my mind there is no cage match Katniss.... All Gods children sing in the choir, some sing low and some sing higher.... Let's all beat on the brat with a baseball bat with Sunday morning coming down..... I miss Joey, Johnny and Tommy beddie bye Boze time here..... It's a Blitzkrieg Bop....

Even if the pretty b*tch does have me dragging flats of plants in & out the damn garage. I'm patient for July; I love Spring with her lilacs, sugar-magnolias, green-grass perfume and a driveway overflowing with the spoils of one's greenhouse hunts. Life's too short to wish it away.

I was told June 10th or thereabouts by GDTSTOO in early March shortly after the TM debacle...they "wanted people to have tickets in hand by mid June" but it's all assumption until one of us gets them

I'd expect them to send out SC tickets first. But then again ticketing hasn't gone exactly as expected so far...

Mayor Klangstone needs to release all his e-mails to the public and give full-disclosure of shady dealings at the Klangstone Foundation. We never have heard anymore about the 75 missing tickets.

As Mayor I have only one request from you. Don't wear the hot pants. They didn't go over so well last time. Mr. Haney's ex got just a little bit too excited and the town meeting REALLY got out of hand as a result. We don't want that again, so please...no hot pants. Another election already???? Man time is accelerating at an alarming rate...
