    well, I haven't been to that part of the world for decades so I'm sure it's changed a bit, but do the Waterford factory tour for molten glass etc. at its finest. I was sad to discover that circa 1978 at least the prices in their gift shop were no bargain, but these days who knows. As I recall Cork itself has some very nice architecture and a pretty good culture scene. And of course take the train to Dublin, which is a stunningly good music town unless something has changed radically.

    Naming RIghts?

    "Slipknot" is a mystery featuring County Sheriff Gavin Pruitt, Deadhead. Set the year before Jerry Garcia's death, "Slipknot" takes place in picturesque rural Washington, and revolves around the murder of a politically prominent environmentalist - who was going to decide whether a local forest is logged or not. The future of the local logging industry is dependent upon the decision - but so are the lives of the wildlife within the forest. Gavin must figure out who the killer is, all the while quoting classic Grateful Dead songs, taking up jamming sessions, and dealing with his daughter's new "hippie" boyfriend. For a free book contact Laura at msclement@yahoo.com Peace, Gigi

    also really good!
    The Rack Shack? Or maybe, if you also wanted to also do food and hire statuesque waitresses you could call it The Barbie Cue Pit. thanks, man, these are also really good! in Vegas, the Rack Shack would go over well, for those that remember the Rat Pack... I also really dig the Barbie Cue Pit, that is grate. thanks for the suggestions. you know, I was actually looking to put in a secret dead 'homage' or a secret dead reference in the name, which is why I asked here. but, all ideas are most gratefully appreciated and I thank you. peace.

    thanks deadicated!!
    thanks deadicated!! in a private message deadicated suggested "The Scratch" I dig that name! thankx! I got plenty of calls coming up to see if this will really happen and where. might be La La Land or Las Vegas which will be a minefield of licenses and red tape but would be cool. might just be a parlour inside a casino, working that angle, too; then the gambling licenses will be there already. got some contacts out that way, and a few people who owe me favors. depends on if/how I'll put it together, and how much cash the people actually throw my way. I got a 'mass market' idear in mind, but that would definately get me some boos and hisses from this crowd. though the franchise rights alone would make a fortune if it got off the ground. '( -; $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$  ( either LA or Vegas will be mass market type joints no matter what, this is, after all a 'business' I'd rather make it a snmokey dark place for real players, but those join\ts dont make too much money, but I'm getting too old to keep being a road player. don't know if I'm ready to 'settle down' just yet, and if I can get it up and running, might not really want to 'work' there... oh the trials and tribulations.

    question of the day?????
    after a very successful run on the tables, I am bucks up!! one of my, ummm, how shall I say, one of my 'backers' has been pusing me to front a pool hall, I'm a pushover... so probably might do so. the question of the day, what to name the joint?? I have always dreamed of having a pool hall with a simple name, like 'Joe C. Boss' Place' or simply 'CC's Pool Hall' and my 'proper name 'Jose Carlos Calio Hernandez Leal Delgado Sanz Fernández Luna Eduardo García Galván Los Muertos Agradecidos' Pool Hall is simply too damn long... but now, given the freedom to do whatever I want, what would be you advice about a name for the pool hall?? peace.

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!
