Was that last DING post of yers a not so subtle hint or somethin?

Given our newfound fortune and fame, Bernie-Office Warrior, has approved an extended, new and improved BerryBudget!!! Think it should include some quality hops like adult malted chilled beverages. I feel a case of Anchor comin on . . . . . AWEIGH!!!!!! ;-)

This kinda catches my eye . . .

Gee, will there ever be any time for just fallin asleep in a chair?

Yeah. All that and HowdyVille. ;-)

"People talk about the mythic elements in the "Star Wars" saga, but that usually amounts to hot air from Ph.Ds who used to play with action figures as children."

Can't help it, got me a digital copy of Richard N Mimi Farina's best stuff, just last week, at the used bin cd store.

There's too much to tawk abooot no one wants to hear about folk singers from 1965, but hossess n hossettes, there's this ONE cut. It's total electric, and full a drums, and Bruce Langhorn just rips up note (dang, edit here, it was Grady Martin leadin this affair )Joan Baez fav player he was) the liner notes say, KILLER lead git) after note with lead work as a rhythm player, and Mimi is ROCK STAR LEGEND screamin the vocals . . . . the drummer is ON it, and all over it, this tune rocks.

Ya know, them two, never wrote down their music. There's no tabs. N even THIS digital cd, isn't in the same tune, song to song. NO WAY to play along, cept to tune to each song, real pain.

Anyhoots, I digress.

Morgan The Pirate. I SWEAR, if you hear it, you'll smile,and flip, and wanna shake yer booty. Ok, it's NOT a 4/4 dance tune, but, man, I swear, it rocks n rolls n stirs my heart.

Loud. Electric. Drums. Mimi. Go figger, huh. N go lissen, if ya kin find it. I'll bring it to Howdy.

Morgan The Pirate.

Killer tune.
