    When it rains, it pours. Glad you are back. Too bad about all of this. I am sure you are a stronger person after this. Adversity can make us stronger, so even the darkness can bring out the light in us. Take care my friend. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.

    Critter is Back, Dejected but here
    Unreal...I just got back from county jail. I missed the whole tour, my family (you), the Boyz, almost lost my true love, and my mother went into the hospital. Could be TMI, but I don't care. Sherrif's On My Trail... May 1st, get pulled over for my license plate light being out...Had a warrant from Cook County for not paying $110 for a prior DUI 2003....they take me to jail in DuPage County (Illinois). As we are driving cop says do you know you have a warrant in California from 1996 (my drug years)? I said Yes, I've been arrested before and they never do anything about it because it's so small. Spend the night in jail, next morning I get my bail hearing...judge asks can you come up with the bail, looking at my girlfriend and mom in the courtroom, I said yes (he doesn't appoint me a lawyer). An hour later they let me have my clothes back and possessions while I'm in the "holding cell" because I was bailed out. I can see my mom/girlfriend in the window paying the bail. Waited for another 30 minutes, then the officer comes and says come with me, and takes me to where they put the orange jumpsuit on....What? You have a hold in California...I said I've been arrested here in DuPage 2 times before and they have never said they were going to extradite me for a misdemeanor. Well we can't do anything about that he says and they put me in jail. The Grass is always greener either side of the hill.... Seriously? So I'm in jail waiting for Monday so they release the hold when they figure it out...this is Monday May 3rd mind you...so the worst thing happens. My mom goes Manic (Severe Bi-Polar Manic Depression to the delusional style) and goes into the hospital (because the police 5150'd her) Sunday. I've been taking care of her for 10 years for this while my only other sibling is in California and usually I'm there to help. Busted down in New Orleans (Chicago).... So the only one who could bail me out is in the mental ward....by this time my true love hates me because I lied and didn't tell her about my warrant. Since I have no lawyer appointed I can't speak to anyone. You can't call cell phones from jail....boy I wish. Usually I can help the Doctors with my mom's medicine and state and give them info on how to get her out of there in at most a week. Well, they take her off Abilfy and totally screw up her meds....this leads to her being in the ward for 24 days....I didn't know anything except for what my Dad told me....you deserve this. Finally I have my court date, and they let me go for time served (we're talking 3 days, I spent 31 days!) So I'm in jail for a month for what I should have been in for only 3 days because I wasn't appointed a lawyer and didn't have access to my money the very little I have. Rich Man Stepped On My Poor Head.... I'm still the same man I've been when I left the rich. Of course, my father wouldn't help me out, why? because I am not a snob, giving into the arrogance of money. I won't tell you that when you have money, you can pay off the system, because you can. You can even get out of murder (OJ Simpson), but I'm still happy I didn't and haven't ever gave in to that mentality. There are good rich people, just a minute few. Most people would think that because I grew up that way I would have gave in and gotten out of jail. NO WAY. I Need A Miracle.... So imagine this, you've been dying to see the one band that makes you smile, smile, smile since January 1st, 2009....and your tickets are sitting in your drawer at home....and your in jail. I was dying while I was in there Tuesday May 4th, looking out a barred window thinking about what are they playing? At least I could have miracled someone>what a waste...I was mad at not seeing them, but at least I could have given them away. Second day, I had tickets, (and the opportunity for luxery box seats), yet again, couldn't do anything for anyone. It was killing me. $400 worth of tickets down the drain..... They Love Each Other.... Luckily I'd told my true love (Trish) where the tickets were before. She had given Tues. to her little brother....Life Changing Experience for the 21 yr. old so I'm told by more than one. The next day he talks her into going (first shows for both, except when I took Trish to Ratdog) and they couldn't believe the love. Both of them had been listening to the band for awhile but never experienced a live show with the Dead! Since I've been out, my True Love has forgiven me for not telling her the total truth about everything (not totally but she understands). Let it Grow.... Hopefully this long winded story has told you that I've screwed up alot in my life....yet I've truly been a better person for being honest and letting it out. I'm still paying for the crap in the past...so be it....I changed along time ago, but I still have to pay the terriff! Obviously this is a long story, but I had to be truthful to you all. I missed my favorite band. I love you all. ~love~ Canyon Critter _____________________________________________ Will you come with me?

Kristinacatfish & Johnman, Oroboros Aunt, Hawkeye, Gigi's Dave &Chubsib -don't fly away,Steve O and mom, PK, and for anyone who needs strength and light to see you through. Cosmetic organic sesame oil (not for cookies & cake :) helps the joints and organs. Rub TOWARD THE HEART for soreness (kidneys, calves..). When you're sad rub on the heart area of spine.

Am going to paste part of an e mail from my mother, that I just found 2 minutes ago. "Hi. Did you hear about David's girlfriend's father dying this weekend and David discovering this when he went to get him for breakfast. This was David's 40th Birthday weekend." David is my brother. Please, friends, send my brother vibes for shock and mourning, and while you're at it, a couple to my mother to help her gain sensitivity. Am cold all over, shocked for my brother, and with the tone that my mother WROTE me this news. ********************************** It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

My youngest sister (53yrs) passed away unexpectly about two weeks ago. She leaves an older step-daughter and a young son, 16. Their father passed away about a year and a half ago. We are overwhelmed by this loss. I never posted in this forum before but I always read it. All of you are good hearted people. I come to this site because of the joy and peace it generates. All of you are an anchor to me, even in the best of times. I thank you all for letting me be in such endlessly "kind" company.

My heartfelt sympathy to you and yours. Wellbeams to deal with the sadness that surrounds your family at this time. May gentle times and kind hearts prevail as everyone struggles to make sense and connect but may not always seem to say it 'right'. Rene, I gave your get well message to pk, and I am hopeful that such healing can return ("the wheel is turning and you can't slow it down") to help your family tenfold. You are the heart of our deadnet family and although the intensity of your passion at times may seem a burden, it is at that core where we all do connect. Take care, Tim The Truth is realized in an instant, the act is practiced step by step.

I am disheartened to hear of your loss too. Just remember that your tag says it all, go to the Docks of The City and feel the warmness that surrounds you (especially the people that love you in here). May you get through this hard time not without the waves, but the strength to let the pillars of your dock stay firm throughout all those waves!

docks of the city said: >I come to this site because of the joy >and peace it generates >All of you are an anchor to me, >even in the best of times. >I thank you all for letting me be >in such endlessly "kind" company. docks of the city, that is a beautiful sentiment. I feel the same way. This beautiful place in ourselves is also the source of our strength. I will keep your sister in thought, in this place of shining light. Eyes of the World Right outside this lazy summer home You ain't got time to call your soul a critic, no Right outside the lazy gate Of winter's summer home Wondering where the nuthatch winter's Wings a mile long Just carried the bird away Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world But the heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now discover that you are the song that the morning brings But the heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own There comes a redeemer and he slowly, too, fades away And there follows his wagon behind him that's loaded with clay And the seeds that were silent all burst into bloom and decay And night comes so quiet, its close on the heels of the day Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world But the heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now discover that you are the song that the morning brings But the heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own Sometimes we live no particular way but our own And sometimes we visit your country and live in your home Sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world But the heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now discover that you are the song that the morning brings But the heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own Eyes Of The World Lyrics By: Robert Hunter

I wish to thank all of you for your warm words. I have a couple of standout memories of my sister that are sustaining me. One is from when she was 11, we took her with us, her three older sisters. to the Human Be-In in Golden Gate Park. We dressed her up in vibrant red Mexican pancho that belonged to me, and homemade beads. She wore the same outfit to her first Fillmore concert, perhaps the same year. It was a sunday afternoon show and the Mothers of Invention played. She laughted in the strobe. I can see her now. I talked to her son about an hour ago and he is listening to the Beatles. and so it goes........... Peace & Music, down by the docks of the city.
