    every thing can be put to music
    my problem is that when i sing out a line or two i can't help but dance a little...so there i am at work and were just chit-chatting about where we are from then my co worker said i was born in arizona..well i couldn't help but to ask rasied in a lions den?..so i start tapping my feet and bobing my head next thing i know everyone is looking at me as if i had two heads...i just can't sit still when i hear good tunes even when it is in my head... let your life proceed by its own design

    Not just Dead music
    I was in a meeting last week at work, and someone said the phrase "no scour, no dry" a couple of times in a row. I'm not sure exactly what possessed me, but I started singing "No scour no dry" to the tune of "No Woman No Cry"....subvocally, I thought, but I guess maybe louder than I thought. My boss looked at me for a second and said, "Bob Marley, right?" We all had a good laugh...and I was impressed that I was singing well enough for someone, anyone to recognize the melody.

    I tend to say some off the wall things, as you've all gathered I'm sure ,but..... Do ya'll ever feel like you belt out a GD lyric, or line daily ?? It just comes to mind so often for me & I think : Man some folks in the Dead family would sure know where I was coming from. Even if it's cheezy nonsense. It's mainly The Dead & Arlo for me, when I said " TYPICAL CASE OF AMERICAN CASE OF BLIND JUSTICE" to my ( then) new boss at the Courthouse, I felt like an idiot, but I HAD to say it :) PEACE

Hey folks,I am heading out tomorrow to go raft the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon for 16 days. Time to shift into the geological time zone. Back in mid July. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

Hal R The river so white, the mountain so red...happy rafting on the great Colorado. There's an Arapahoe Indian saying..."you'll always come back" so no need to be sad once you've returned :) Johnman DEFINITELY sending galaxies of healing light and warmth to you...and to Johnman and CCS geez I know you hate the sesame oil idea (Jman) BUT organic sesame oil -cosmetic/not to eat doesn't really smell/can get at a Whole Foods (bronze cap). It really helps sore shoulders, joints.rub in affected area w/ knuckles towards the heart.Camphor, menthol etc STUFF can be too heating/organic sesame oil is neutral and calming/honest ;) Big thanks to the May 11th link to the LA show, petewilgoren (grate interview, behind the scenes, opener etc) I'm in LA...didn't go but listened and threaded online and what a moment! Wharf Rat ..the excitement you could feel...all of LA in an octopus garden with Wharf Rat tentacles LOL L

The drive from Yosemite to Tahoe is spectacular-I was there once in early June and it snowed really heavy in the mountains. Being from miami it was kind of freaky and cold !!!Saw the String Cheese Incident at Harrahs And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

Get rid of an earworm song? Yesterday, YESTERDAY I listened to Diana Krall's "Quiet Nights", and hanging in there near the end of the album, catching me unawares, was a cover the of BeeGees' "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart." I've never liked the BeeGees, grew to loathe them during the disco era, but Krall does this very nice cover and suddenly I've got the BeeGee's version in my head and it won't go away!! ARRRGHH!!

What have I done??? TL, you're probably in big trouble, because I've read that these things infect women more than men, and music lovers more than the general populace. Two strikes against you. So sorry!!

Way better advice than I got from one of my "friends": I got a message to get to you on this. I think the way to get the song out of your head will happen when all the lights go out in Massachusetts… and I’m not just starting a joke here. Perhaps this is just jive talking. But this one seems to be be like antibiotic-resistant staph, no killing the sucker. Right now I'm stuck at work, no streaming allowed on my computer, no music to listen to, just trapped inside my head with frakkin' song. Does DP 24 come in pill form?

Focus, my man, focus! Just keep chanting to yourself: Some folks trust to reason, others trust to might. I don't trust to nothing, but I know it come out right." That should cure you of your current bout of Saturday Night Disease. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

You've talked me down, the demon song has vanished. Or at least given way to Joe Cocker's "Hitchcock Railway." Don't know why it was that song, just glad it was something I like. Happy Friday!
