    AND: it will be solar powered! OK, cool, add the video, too. this is why I opened up the product development to the 'committee' here, I can't think up, (let alone remember) everything. I'm barely rebemering my own blood type these days, as it tends to be Johnny Red, 80 proof. RH factor NEGATIVE. I do think, if I consider this from a very prudent business point of view, that the sub-woofer, multi-speaker, thing must be an option. I learned on the road, people do not want a 'pack' of stickers, they usually want to choose one at a time. I went to the WharfRaton School of Business in Hell's Kitchen, youngest graduate at age 11. I learned during my internship. People want options. oh, scratch resistant surface, a vairety of colours, tie-dye of various shapes and forms, various dead logos and trademarks, available. or, as I would choose for my Deadhead Shuffle: basic black, the only tiny little trademark for me, would be THIS: peace.

    shall we call this, uhhh, (cough, cough) a pipe dream?? ( -; I certainly hope not. OK, if you boys tell me this is technically possible, well get up on that wagon! we're going up north to put the word in the streets. I know a guy, who knows a guy, who knows a guy who is a close personal friend of Steve Jobs' personal trainer. ( -; I got the name, and watch for the upcoming manufacture and release of...................... big drum roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! **** The Deadhead Shuffle (loud cheers and roars of applause echo through the land) ( -; now who will deal with Rhino to get them to release the rights to all of the stuff in the vault? peace.

    50 TB hard drives?
    Probably not by Christmas 2008, but I'd be surprised if you didn't see them by Christmas 2010. Plenty of 1 TB drives on the market already. Now if Intel can just get Tesla's electrical power broadcasting thing actually functioning, bye bye to the battery toting mule as well... Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

    ya know CCj, this can be done! the capacity amount isn't a problem, the shows plus all video(u forgot that,ccj) can be done( even throw on kesey's bus TRIP) and the headphones are a cinch, docking and shuffle already done, hey how about the worlds smallest external LOUD speakers with subwoofer that fit in the back where the battery was! ...because the battery pack would need a mule to carry it around for you : ) and u know what happens if the horse won't pull....

    What I really want
    what I really want is a 50,000 GB hard drive type i-pod type cigarrette pack sized contraption that plays the highest quality flac/shn (or whatever is the best) digital music, that includes EVERY SINGLE SECOND of every show, every acid test, every last tiny bit of tape of the good o'l grateful dead, EVER recorded, it must have docking capability, AND I want it to have noise reduction head phones. ( -; AND I want it by Christmas! ok, just to keep everybody happy, my dream i-pod can have a shuffle feature for the people who like compliations. hows about that? ( -; peace. another quick pop in here.

    thank you, thank you very much. just a quick pop in, mom since I got some decently speeded inet access for a few days. won't be "back" til fall. the real credit for the love post goes to the songwriters and the folks who run the lyric website, http://www3.clearlight.com/~acsa/intro.htm as far as I can tell, this is the only time the grateful dead sang the word "mom" in the Merle Haggard cover: "Dear old daddy, rest his soul, left my mom a heavy load She tried so very hard to fill his shoes Working hours without rest, wanted me to have the best She tried to raise me right but I refused" love and peace.

thanks for the potato song again - Dark HalR, just had some great ones for supper. Just shared the song with my wife. But actually I live in Washington which is now the onion state. Am about 30 miles from the Idaho border. But we do grow yummy potatoes here. Ate my Washington potato with Washington onions. The Walla Walla sweet onion was designated our state vegetable in 2007. The potato growers wanted it to be the potato and the potato and onion farmer's lobbies each lobbied at the state house to have their vegetables made the official state vegetable. It was a close call but the Walla Walla sweet won. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

the thought of potato farmers and onion farmers duking it out in the state house for the right to be state vegetable. So funny it brings tears to my eyes! heheh

bytheby, hal. giving credit where it is due, the title, "Dark Hal R" was an original idea come up by the Badger. hope your wife dug it. meanwhile, since i only got re-runs left inside of me here, I'll do a bit of one-up-manship with the badger: Cosmic Badger Cosmic Badger what's up with you You travel so far, that's what you do To 'WhereverthefuckitisStan' you flew Go on home, Mrs Badger's calling you Cooking up a pot of badger stew Light the fire -- put it under you Out the window a Great Tit flew Go on home, Mrs Badger's calling you Now you have just one more chance We all wanna see the Badger dance Trippin out and in a trance Poke my eyes, with a lance Meeting you in an airport bar Looking at the sky we see Dark Star Drinking beers all during the day My ears are clogged, 'what did you say?' You said you're a badger or are you a skunk Don't really know but there's a funk Is it you or is it me? Don't know, but CC's gotta pee CC Joe, the cops are on to you You are taking so damn long in the loo What you got there in your hand? What comes out is dry like sand You're feeling that 'itch' aren't you? Your old lady knows what you wanna do Poor old CC, please don't feel blue Turning her back she's just stalling you Stalling you Stalling you Stalling you Stalling you Maybe later, she says with a sigh Old CC is starting to cry No worries, mate. She's joking with you Get in bed, she says to you Get in bed, she'll be kind to you Get in bed, she'll be kind to you Get in bed, she'll be kind to you KIND TO YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually Gee, I didn't know Jimi received Washington sainthood? Everyday I eat my favorite apple, the Gala, your state fruit. My habanerro chili contains your state vegetable: a Walla Walla onion. Odds say that the goldfinch will fly over the banana slug, though.

I was just referring to the virtual food fight occuring in this blog. Oh and by the way, I prefer the term "referring" as in you get high through the kindness of a stranger rather than the one where you point at someone. What would Willie Do?

between the farmers at Farm Aid. I would want to have apples, peaches and corn on the cob, maybe a few melons. Would be very hard for the rice and wheat farmers to win in a food fight with their grains. But maybe then the wheat farmers would start chasing everyone around with those giant tractors and combines. What Would Wille Do?

I meant pissed as in perturbed that people would be fighting at his show, I doubt Willie gets "pissed" as in drunk anymore. Hal R,'s post really cracked me up. All you really need...

*** "I had a hard run" back when I was about 14/15, I ran the NYC marathon... way too hung over from partying the night before, got to the Staten Island side of the Verrazzano Narrows Bridge really late, sparking up to take the edge off... anyways, immediately after the race started I was the last of the runners. It was frigging embarrassing, I was literally fucking LAST coming off the 59th Street bridge, heading up First Ave, all through the Bronx, back down, and into Central Park, I was frigging last. Most of the crowd was actually cheering me on really loudly and supportively, yelling 'yo tie dye go!!' This guy in front of me, second to last, was making fun of me the whole way through the last few miles. With the finish line in sight, this mook says to me: "Hey kid, how does it feel to be last?" . I says: "You want to know?" and I dropped out. ( -; peace. (jojo the fish era)
