    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

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

that our state dance is the square dance. I can just see it now, next time at the Gorge when the Dead play, thousands of Washington Deadheads square dancing away. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

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)
