    @ Trivia
    I dont really know but I would venture to guess it has to do with syringes? Or small scooters? I caught you knockin' at my cellar door I love you, baby, can I have some more Ooh, ooh, the damage done. I hit the city and I lost my band I watched the needle take another man Gone, gone, the damage done. I sing the song because I love the man I know that some of you don't understand Milk-blood to keep from running out. I've seen the needle and the damage done A little part of it in everyone But every junkie's like a settin' sun.

    Marley has always been sublime....not a bad song in the catalog.... Mr Peter MacIntosh is no slouch either as you pointed out earlier in this journey.....why do they have to die too soon? If it's love that you're running from There is no hiding place Just your problems, no one else's problems Could just have to face If you just put your hand in mine We're gonna lay all our troubles behind We're gonna walk and don't look back Gonna walk and don't look back Now if your first love has let you down There's something can be done Don't you have your faith in love Remembering what been gone So if you just put your hand in mine We're gonna lay all our troubles behind Gonna walk and don't look back We're gonna walk and don't look back If you just put your hand in mine We're gonna lay all our troubles behind We're gonna walk and don't look back Gonna walk and don't look back Places behind you There to remind you If your first love have broke your heart There's something can be done Don't have your faith in love Remembering what's been gone But if you just put your hand in mine We're gonna lay all our troubles behind Gonna walk and don't look back We're gonna walk and don't look back

    it's a measure, but I ain't gonna say of what. Stir it up is one of my all-time favorites. Ranks in one of my top-10 sexy songs (as long as we're on topic.) Your recipe, darlin', is so tasty! food references in music are sexy, 99.99% of the time. The other .01% is reserved for Weird Al.

    @stirring it up?????
    An obscure little ditty....and yes the women are smarter...smarter than the man in every way..... I treat you like a woman So treat me like a man I took you to a better place And helped you understand So don't squeeze me like toothpaste Like putty in your hands I'm gonna go away, I'm gonna blow away A woman is a woman And a man is just a fool It takes all of the heartaches And life can be so cruel Who's gonna be there when the morning comes? Head on the pillow, smiling at me I get up and make the coffee It must be love, it must be love Who's gonna be there when the morning comes? Head on the pillow, smiling at me I get up and make the coffee It must be love, it must be love I treat you like a woman So treat me like a man I took you to a better place And helped you understand Trivia question: What is the significance (referential meaning) of the band name 10cc????

    goodbye, stranger
    I was walkin' down the streetConcentratin' on truckin' right I heard a dark voice beside of me And I looked round in a state of fright I saw four faces one mad A brother from the gutter They looked me up and down a bit And turned to each other I say I don't like cricket oh no I love it I don't like cricket no no I love it Don't you walk thru' my words You got to show some respect Don't you walk thru' my words 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet. Well he looked down at my silver chain He said I'll give you one dollar I said you've got to be jokin' man It was a present from me mother He said I like it I want it I'll take it off your hands And you'll be sorry you crossed me You'd better understand that you're alone A long way from home. And I say I don't like reggae no no I love it I don't like regaae I love it Don't you cramp me style Don't you queer me pitch Don't you walk thru' my words 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet. I hurried back to the swimming pool Sinkin' Pena Calarda I heard a dark voice beside me say Would you like something harder She said I've got it you want it My harvest is the best And it you try it you'll like it And whollow in a Dreadlock Holyday. And I say Don't like Jamaica oh no I love her Don't like Jamaica oh no I love her oh yea Don't you walk thru' her words You got to show some respect Don't you walk thru' her words 'Cause you ain't heard her out yet. I don't like cricket I love it Dreadlock Holiday I don't like reggae I love it Dreadlock Holiday Don't like Jamaica I love her Dreadlock Holiday.

Totes has a point... My life has been lived in the moment for a while now....about 2 years... This merry band of strangers have been brought together by a cultural phenomenon and will convene for but a second in our virtual lives... I am happy to support and contribute ideas for a website...if asked Unfortunately I am unlikely to use it as well... But....I do understand that some people need living testaments and memorials and others like me are fine with the faded memories....they are almost always better than the real thing. Irrespective of personal preferences ...our collective thanks go to geohelpingtobuildamemorialforSunshinedaydreamersastheyseefitmeister After all we all have our own paths to follow... someone set me straight on that just about a month ago.... And I'm so lost down mine there ain't no going back! thanks George...hope you're feeling the love... :-)

Well said rrrrrgrrrrr. As much as these memories will live on and be a part me, it's all forward motion. The scrapbook idea is very nice though. I guess the SSDDer mission statement needs to be revised now. Contact the Poobah, we need chase this wabbit down the hole and create an IT department! The pill mother gave me didn't do anything at all. Tap, tap. Dammit, is this thing on? Where's Alice, I think she'll know. Hey Alice!

Amen to that, and amen to Totem, I don't know nothin about no website. Whose dumb/clever idea was that? Actually, the URLs were procured so no scum bag would grab them and try to scalp bootleg tshirts or something. What about that back 40 acre spread down by the river we were planning on getting for an annual pic-a-nic? Who's in charge of that? And what about the go-fund me kickstarter campaign to fund indigent sunshiners? And the Daydreamers? The house band? we gotta have a place to practice, if we existed, which we don't, but I play a mean air-guitar, and keep knocking into my monitor here. What about the pies? We need more pies. And Ice Cream. And cobbler...a big old dutch oven full of peach cobbler, plenty of cinnamon and maybe a sassafras stick or three. Anyone got 40 acres we can have? maybe with a river, you know, one that we can listen to as it sings sweet songs to rock our souls...and our canoes...gotta have canoes... Gonna be a nice pic-a-nic... Have a great day everyone... geomusemeister

All of matter is just very very very very very very condensed energy - no one has ever been here ever, but still there are albums and memories, faded and clear, and every once in an while a service is born from an idea and sometimes it helps... nothing born out of nothing and that's become everything. We are all in the story. Some will be on the site or in the non-profit, and it's all just right.

I note that 1) you have been on-board this forum bus since the last decade, and 2) you scored a single sweet Saturday suite ducat in a clever way, and 3) you know the magic handshake and posted on our friendly pic-a-nic board, and 4) it looks like you may already a sunshine daydreamer of the finest caliber and be in Chicago for that celebratory weekend, and last, but not least, 5) you probably do know how the songs go. Noting also that rgrgrrrgr hit the brakes long enough for you to hop on board and you got a nod from him... We welcome you to our friendly group of travelers...it appears all you have to do is PM one of us and you may find yourself taking it to the next level as it were, for we need to get you specific information...like tshirt, meet-ups, etc...for that we need your all important email address. Grab a seat, buckle up, say hi, but watch out, if you raise your hand, rgrgrgrrr may ask you to brive da dus... Good to know you! geonotthepoobahmeister

Went to Oriole Park tonight to see my birds play, and what had been a peaceful demonstration against our local death by cop episode, escalated into a bottle/stone throwing riot right outside the stadium. My first thought was "i hope nothing like this happens in Chicago" Ive GOT to get my head more into the now. I love my city. I believe we we can find justice without tearing it down.. probably just naive. mmmbop bop bop madswan needs more Ghandi.
