    What free idea said "it's not a downer to listen..." Also it sounds like you got some stuff to get out, and we certainly don't mind listening. Hang in there Chubsib, take it day by day, and perhaps come back here from time to time, where people are kind. Is at least one more guy here who knows first hand what you've been through in Irak. He's still there, so perhaps you can hook up with writing to him here? Peace and inner strength to you Chubsib,and lots and lots of good vibes. ********************************** Don't part with your illusions.

    I haven't posted here ever before... used to hang out back in the 90's in a chat called "710 Ashbury", and haven't had the time since about 98', so a lot to say but will try and keep it short... haven't seen a show since Phoenix 94, just kinda faded away after Uncle Jerry went to play that great gig in the sky. Much has happened in my life since then. Kinda drifted in and out of the rainbow family for a few years, then joined the machine and became a heavy equipment operator of all things. That took me out to Reno and into a union and... well I'll save that for later, but, it eventually took me to Iraq working for a company out of Houston called KBR. It is truely amazing for me to look back at it all and see just how far I have strayed from who I really am in the name of the almighty dollar. I spent more time living in a warzone listening to Jerry and Bobby and Phil then I had until rescently since my last show. I'm home now and definitely scrambled in the head. Because I was a civilian contractor, there are no benefits available for counseling, no one will hire me, and I am so deep in debt, I can't even see the sun anymore. I only sleep 2 to 3 hours at a time and only 4 or 5 times a week. I keep my doors locked and have been living my life infront of my computer trying to get out of my head... but, I found a couple of my old cd's cleaning the house the other day and I have been back on the bus. I feel, just from the music, that the hole that war has left in me is slowly, very slowly, starting to close. I've been home for over a year and more than half my friends don't even know I'm home. Honestly, just so I know it myself, I'm not living this way out of fear, more, I feel that this is my pennance of sorts... I have created my own cell... I have nothing but love for all mankind, but the images trapped in my head still won't go away, so, I guess I'm askin for nothin but love... I could really use some good vibes and words of encouragement to know, weather you all agree with war, the war, or anything related to that whole scene, I'm still alive and its never too late. Sorry for the downer. Thanks for reading my vent, and if anyone cares to, feel free to drop me a private message or post a responce. Thanks again and, from what is left of my heart, never let go of the music.Chubs I be.

Mona spoke to him. He is doing physical therapy, and walking a bit even, though with a walker. If I understood correctly, Mona also said that his physical therapist is a member of this site, amazing coincidence, eh? ********************************** Clothes make the man.

Here's some more good news; my sister-in-law is doing well and firmly on the road to recovery. She still has some surgery ahead but my wife and I spent some time with her today and things are going very well after some early perils that were too unbelievable to describe. Hopefully we'll all be able to laugh about it one day. I hope everyone is doing well and for those struggling; my prayers are with you. Hello to TL and welcome mrhead. Thanks again everyone!

My dear friend and ex boss in Spain just called me this morning with the devastating news that his father died last Wednesday. I had the pleasure of knowing Senor Rey, and am truly saddened by this news. He was such a cheerful, peaceful man, with kind smiling eyes. I used to run into him in the street in Sevilla, from time to time, and he always had a kind word, or would insist on carrying my groceries home with me. Jose, his mother, and younger brother are devastated; and Jose told me that his father died in his arms. He said that the loss has not fully sunk in yet-for example he almost phoned to check on his father this morning. Jose and I spoke for a very long time today, and his deep sadness was striking me very hard. I have a very clear visual image of Senor Rey, and am feeling very fortunate that I had the opportunity to know such a fine person. Jose's younger brother has MS, his mother is devastated, and Jose is assuming the role of head of the family now. He needs our love and support vibes, in order to be able to handle processing his father's death, managing the details of the estate, running his business, and getting through his loss. He told me that his family has been somewhat comforted by the outpouring of support from friends, aquaintances, and former co-workers, and that there were nearly 500 people at the funeral, from all over Spain. Friends, please help me with sending strength and peace and recovery vibes to my beloved friend and his family. It is very strange, as working for him down in Spain was sometimes very very tough, but the fact that Jose had been trying to reach me here in the States, (he tried to call my cell phone several times) so soon after his father's death has reminded me of what is really important-our personal bond is deeper than any professional stress. And to have heard the loss in his voice is breaking my heart. Adios y paz Senor Rey, una persona muy especial. Te vayas nos falta. ********************************** Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge. Mark Twain

"We have the technology"....don't know why this flashes me back to the Bionic Man/Woman tv daze (well of course I know why), but my wife is about to have knee replacement surgery. I think that I'm freaking more about it than she is -- can't shake the idea that they are going to CUT THE "OLD" KNEE (which is to say, her real one) OUT...and if something doesn't go quite right, it's not like they can put the old one back in, can they? Her recovery will be tougher than it could be -- she's had to stop taking the meds that have been keeping her arthritis at bay, won't be able to re-start for a month after the surgery. This will make the re-habbing on the knee all that more difficult, but she's stubborn and tougher than she looks, so I'm confident all will go well. Extra healing vibes request to help through this...thanks all!
