    Furthur selection criteria
    Any significance around the fact that all of the first names of all the "Furthur" boys not named "Bob" or "Phil" begin with the letter "J"? Theories, please...

    I found this over at Lossless
    I'm looking to raise $800 to replace a speaker that was stolen from the KPFA performance studio. I believe this is a speaker that was originally donated by the Jerry Garcia estate. Regular listeners to Dead to the World have heard many great music broadcasts from that studio, and we have Grandpa Banana and his band coming in this week. KPFA is struggling (as are we all, I know) so it will be hard to find the money to replace this important piece of the studio. That's why I am asking for help here. You can send a check to KPFA, 1929 Martin Luther King Jr Way, Berkeley CA 94704, or Paypal to David@trufun.com with a note stating that it is for KPFA. I know we can make this happen. Thanks to all for reading this. someone found this on David`s facebook page . figure I`ll post it here also. KPFA could use the help as well as any public broadcasting radio or television station.

    Quack, Quack, Quack - Go Ducks!
    I will be rooting for the Oregon Ducks, whose homefield is Autzen Stadium in Eugene, in the Rose Bowl! Now that I've my credit cards all paid off I should go see Furthur on new years eve, then head down to the Rose Bowl and see the Ducks, then head down to Baja and have a margaritta with a senoritta in Rosarita. But it would really suck if Furthur played FOTD, the Ducks lost, and I got mugged in Mexico, I think I'll just stay home. It's been a good year, why push it. I saw more shows this year,3, than I have since the mid-80's, wrote more songs this year than I ever have in my life,(you all inspire me), and had a couple nice road trips where, on one, I saw a ton of new country I've not seen before. Plus, I had my last beer on the 9th of this month, smoked my last bowl on the 24th, and am hoping to have my last cig tomorrow. I hope in the coming year I can get my act together and start playing some gigs. I wish you all a happy and healthy new year. Peace. Let there be songs, to fill the air

    the torrent of saliva emanating from bob's mouth. he wasn't actually spitting, but wow....i don't know how he could actually sing with the amount of liquid he was producing. the only visual i can think of that compares is sweat pouring off of someone during an extremely strenuous workout, and that still doesn't really compare. we used to get close enough to almost lean on the edge of the stage at the kaiser convention center in oakland and had a clear view of bob, just a few feet away.

just gotta be in the right frame of mind, and post whatever you want: "When the bowl was finished Johnny said Hey man, that stuff was great But fill your lungs with some of this And prepare to vegetate" ( -: and the other video version for the same tune: everybody sing along: The devil went to jamaica by David Allen Coe The devil went to Jamaica He was looking to sell some weed He was doin' fine They were standin' in line It was excellent weed indeed When he came across a young man Who was likewise peddling pot And the devil slid down the beach to the kid And said boy let me tell you what I guess you kind of figured I'm a reefer head of course And after all this time I guess that I'm a conniseur of sorts Now your stuff smells okay But this could tranquilize a horse I'll bet a million in cash against your stash Cause I think mines better than yours The boy said my names Johnny And you ain't smoked nothing yet One hit of this grass will kick your ass You got yourself a bet Johnny roll a ball of hash And make sure it's the bomb Cause the devils got the kind of stuff they smoked in Vietnam You'll get a million smack-a-roo's in cash if you can cope But if you can't the devil gets your dope The devil packed a bong With a little Acapulco Gold And resin flew from his finger tips As he fired up his bowl He filled that chamber all the way And he took a mighty hit And as they passed it back and forth It gave them both a coughing fit (coughing) When the bowl was finished Johnny said Hey man, that stuff was great But fill your lungs with some of this And prepare to vegetate Cannibis Sativa, Sweet Maryjane The devils in the backyard frying his brain Zig-Zag filled with the diggity-dank Hold on tight it will hit you like a tank The devil nodded off Because he knew that he was stoned And he asked if he could by an ounce Of the stuff that Johnny owned Johnny said, Devil just come on back If you ever wanna catch a buzz I done told you once You son of a bitch Mine's the best there ever was And they fired up doobies one by one Ain't gonna stop until the bag is done Green as a bullfrog Sticky as glue Granny do you get high, yes I do by David Allen Coe ( -: peace.

An ever so typical, rich woman from Hollywoodland purchased the last remaining woodlands in the Malibu hills, intending to level the forest and build a big mansion. There was a really large, very old tree on one of the highest points in the tract. She wanted a good view of her newly purchased land so she started to climb the big tree. As she neared the top she slipped and slid down the tree to the ground and got a lot of splinters in her crotch. In considerable pain, she hurried to the nearest emergincy room. The only doctor available happened to be an old deadhead. She told him how she had bought a big piece of land and then how she got all the splinters. The doctor listened to her story with great patience and then told her to go into the examining room and he would see if he could help her. She sat and sat and waited and waited for morre than 6 hours before the doctor reapeared. The angry rich woman demanded, What took you so long??!!! The deadhead doc smiled and then told her, "Well, it took some time to get permits from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Manegement before I can remove old-growth timber from a recreational area."

my favorite of his is You Never Even Call Me By My Name, which is actually Steve Goodman's if the lyrics are to be believed, but just like he says it's the perfect country song! "I was drunk the day that Mama got out of prison..."

Karma?!? You all know I’m a sucker for betting the kids over music, sometimes making them cry on the basketball court( beaten by a Girl ~ a Mom no less), and gloating over the occasional board game. Everyone has finally settled and I’m relaxing in my room, reading The Green Mile. Feeling rather parched ( thank you Noodle! ) I head into the kitchen for a glass of tea~ or should I say cup, seeing as how there’s a shortage of glasses at our house. The only light is coming from the fish tank. Out of nowhere there’s a stabbing, blinding pain radiating from my right foot. Feet that I’ve sworn could walk over hot coals without breaking a sweat; thanks to my grocery store motto. For a few seconds I thought I was going to black out & crash into the aforementioned tank. Hopping on my remaining reliable foot I look down & spot the upright red man on the rug. It all comes back to me in a flash: I heartily knock Kramer’s green man back to start and I can hear myself chanting “SORRY! Victory is mine!” ARGGGH!! I sit down on the floor to make sure there’s no gaping hole in my foot as I wearily eye the red devil. I hurl him in the vicinity of the trash can, miss and mumble a few choice words under my breath. I make it to the fridge and although the tea is welcome, it just doesn’t seem as sweet as before. Waking up this morning, karma far from my mind I plant both feet on the floor and the pain comes flooding back. I’ve stepped on my share of kid toys and that damn Sorry piece was worse than the dreaded Lego and matchbox car put together. So, if your in a similar situation, don’t let the Power of beating your kids go to your head, because it can surely come back to haunt you. I’m starting a petition that all games with choking hazard warnings should also alert the unsuspecting game enthusiast of Stone Bruise Dangers….. Hex on YOU Parker Brothers!! I've missed ya'll !!!! PEACE rider

Mighty fine folks here :) Thank you all kindly! In much need of catching up, fer sher. CB: I believe we've had a Lego discussion before & I've been wondering how your 3D Jerry Masterpiece was going... My regards to Mrs.Badger & Badger Dog as well. CCJ: Ha ha! Lovin the ikur update esp. your "rider foot fetish" line, what a Trip!! Johnman: You have me rollin with Gunboats! I'll never think of Kramer's Clodhoppers the same again. He out -shoed ( if that's a word ?)me sometime back & we are nose to nose at the moment. I've never tried to send someone to their room while looking up at them, so wish me Luck! Gigi: Miss you too, hope you had a lovely birthday with Rat Dog. Who could ask for more ?? Noonie: Those old school green army men are No Joke indeed!! HalR: Feels kind of foolish sprawling over a fake mouse, does it not ?? We now have 3 cats, the youngest being Sparta who will NOT stay off the drapes.

Johman, I think he knows what he is talking about. THIS IS WHAT JEFF FOXWORTHY HAS TO SAY ABOUT LIVING IN Washington! If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance and they don't work there, you live in Washington. If you've worn shorts, sandals and a parka at the same time, you live in Washington. If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed the wrong number, you live in Washington. If you measure distance in hours, you live in Washington. If you know several people who have hit a deer more than once, you live in Washington. If you have switched from 'heat' to 'A/C' and back again in the same day, you live in Washington. If you install security lights on your house and garage but leave both doors unlocked, you live in Washington If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching, you live in Central, Southern or Eastern Washington. If you design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a 2 layers of clothes or under a raincoat, you live in Washington. If driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow and ice, you live in Washington. If you know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter, and road construction, you live in Washington. If you feel guilty throwing aluminum cans or paper in the trash, you live in Washington. If you know more than 10 ways to order coffee, you live in Washington. If you know more people who own boats than air conditioners, you live in Washington. If you stand on a deserted corner in the rain waiting for the "Walk" signal, you live in Washington. If you consider that if it has no snow or has not recently erupted, it is not a real mountain, you live in Washington. If you can taste the difference between Starbucks, Seattle's Best, and Dutch Bros, you live in Washington. If you know the difference between Chinook, Coho and Sockeye salmon, you live in Washington. If you know how to pronounce Sequim, Puyallup, Abiqua, Issaquah, Oregon, Umpqua, Yakima and Willamette, you live in Washington. If you consider swimming an indoor sport, you live in Washington. If you can tell the difference between Japanese, Chinese and Thai food, you live in Washington. If you never go camping without waterproof matches and a poncho, you live in Washington. If you have actually used your mountain bike on a mountain, you live in Washington. If you think people who use umbrellas are either wimps or tourists, you live in Washington. If you buy new sunglasses every year, because you can't find the old ones after such a long time, you live in Washington. If you actually understand these jokes and forward them to all your Washington friends, you live or have lived in Washington. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

If you can barbeque and do yard work in a rain drizzle, you might be in western Washington. If you live near one of the world's largest nuclear weapon arsenals, you are in western WA. and one of my favorites> If you enjoy a tall glass of Whoop Pass, you might be in Washington!
