    thought for the day
    I was sitting around in deep contemplation, in the haze of cheap red wine... going back to the hippies, yippies, and up to the generation X type drop-outs, burn-outs and so on and so forth. kids with dreads hanging and posing... that type. it always seemed to me, that a lot (not all) a lot of those folks were running 'from' something. and it always was that deadheads were always running 'to' something. (especially the music, the shows, the life) just a thought for the day. ( -; peace.

    Funny story. Sounds like Wakeman was a little overblown with self importance, something I always felt when I heard his music. I lean more towards McCoy Tyner when it comes to amazing keyboards. He doesn't need all that stuff to cart around. Next time you vacuum let us know and we can pour on the abuse to make you feel at home if you wish.

    In answer to your question about cell phones in Europe. It depends on whether you have a dual band or tri band phone. A tri band will work here, but a U.S. dual band will probably not. Your network, most likely will not work though. IF your phone works, could always buy a pre-paid sim card in Ireland. If have other questions on this, just ask-know quite some about traveling w/cell phones! :-)********************************** Don't part with your illusions.

    I love his 7 words act. ive considered playing it during my radio show, but put it out of mind. Life on the road would be tough I imagine. He died of heart failure. I imagine his heart wasnt helped by lots of eating fast food on the road or late nights in comedy clubs.on a better note, ive found a great new hangout. lots of deadhead stuff and GD stuff. LOTS of dead head Brown U college students. great place called the kind connection oon thayer street in providence. managed to restock my incense after my dad confiscated my old stuff. also, does anyone know if regular cell phones work in europe? Peace, The Kid p.s. if ur intested in my radio show, ive got a session up on our website, wbvc.pomfretschool.org dont put www before it or it wont work. click on the ADD hour link.

I think there is obviously some confusion here, maybe an example of someone taking over another's account and posting as them... it was the Badger in them hot pink short shorts (his usual attire) shouting out Voulez-vous coucher avec moi? can we really fault him for that? everyone needs to earn a living, 'specially if your marmalade business wasn't all that successful. walking from village to village, hawking his marmalade, he came to be know as: 'Lady Marmalade' ********* very glad you two had a nice time, and hope you gave each other a big hug from us.

Only TL knows that he really does exist and is not just a virtual being existing on the internet. Until that time he will remain painted as TL described him in the Bermuda shorts, black socks and loafers. Oh and Buddy if you are asking CB to do it and show his face, well.................. That is such a cool castle and landscape, unreal to me really, just as the Rockies that I know must seem alien to others.

Open the photo in a photoeditor, resize it to make it around 4cm wide and save Open www.imageshack.us Browse for the photo Click the resize image box and select ‘Optimise without resizing’ from the menu next to it Click ‘Start Upload’ When uploaded scroll down the page and look for the ‘Hotlink for Websites’ box (its nearly at the bottom of the page) Click on the text in that box, copy and then paste into your comment box in Deadnet Click ‘preview comment’ to see if it works Add text before or after Post comment hmmm I could be making a big mistake .....

"Deadhead Housewives" the usual, spats between husbands and wives about who smoked up the last of the stash... who forgot the tickets on the kitchen table after arriving at the show... how all the white 'Haynes' jockey shorts are now all pink because somebody mixed the loads with the tie dyes... you know, the usual stuff. peace.

Since Docks had wanted to hear more about lunch, I will tell the full menu now. But first I think I must mention the pizza I had on Saturday night in Toulouse. Pizza topped with slices of duck, potatos, creme fraîche, parsley, and cheese. I was sceptical, at first, of this southewestern French style of pizza, but boy was it good!!!!!!!! Ok, now for Sunday lunch menu with Marc and CB: I ate: Course 1:soup morrocain-which was kind of like minestrone, but with chick peas in it. VERY yummy! Course 2: OK OK know was NOT pc, and animal abuse, but went with the adventurous eating local thing, and ate foie gras, on slices of toast, with home made fig jam. GASP GASP-sorry abused ducks and all vegetarians reading this. Course 3: was the big plate of crevettes that Badger was so kind to show you already. Were not as good as Spanish gambas, and I suspect they had been frozen. Marc at the confit de canard, (duck leg) and I am thinking perhaps I should have eaten that instead. Oh well-still finished my plate of shrimp. Course 4: was the cheese plate, several different kinds. ate some chevre and don't remember what other kind. Course 5: creme brulée. I was stuffed to the gills, by this point, and ate only bout half of the dessert. But boy was it good :) Good thing we had a long walk through Najac after that meal!!! ********************************** Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.

I did not eat the foie gras, but had walnut and roquefort salad instead. It was delicious as was the 'confit de canard'.

He tells the truth :) I thought about that alternative, but don't like roquefort, so... (excuses excuses) again sorry abused ducks. ********************************** Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society. Mark Twain

badger, you got a bannana in your pocket or are you just glad to be with Tiger Lilly? ooops, did that slip out? no, I will not throw in yet another tired, OLD joke... I'll keep using it till I lose it... but seriously folks... got a bum hip, and my 'break' shoulder (pool break) and wrist ache more and more -- that I have learned to deal with. but when more and more of my body is covered with camphor, menthol, and methyl salicylate rub i get bummed out.

From the continuing adventures of TL and CB (I love the pics). I saw Elvis Costello on Sunday night, the country/bluegrass Elvis, whose band included at least a couple of guys I've run into before -- Jerry Douglas on dobro and Jim Lauderdale on guitar and harmony vox. Elvis and Jim duetted on "Friend of the Devil" to my delight and eliciting a rousing ovation from the crowd. Not to let the opportunity pass by, Elvis immediately commented that if we stuck around for the "late set, we'll be doing 'Dark Star.'" Alas, it didn't happen, but it was one many very funny asides from the stage that night. Excellent show!

and i asked the priest (father seamus lafferty, with an accent as thick as his name) for blessings as i'm gettin' my hip replaced on monday, so he does the full annointing with oils, and i caught a familiar scent........patchouli!!....who'd of thought. small world

Good luck on your surgery...nothing like a little patchouli to kick the blessing in the right direction. My wife's getting close to a knee replacement (it does suck to get old!) and if your hip works out well then we may give pre-op patchouli a try. Hang in there.
