Waaaa
I was merrily shopping and getting into the christmas scene. I joyfully got in my car and backed right into someone's car, waaaa I did damage to it and mine car too, it really sucks and the guy was a big jackass and called the cops even though I stayed and gave him my name and #, his car was so beat up anyway it had been sideswipes down both sides, and hit on every corner ,now that I hit the only good part of his car.He should of let a nice girl like me go, but NO he went on a rampage of how his car always gets hit and how he is sick of people! So now I get to pay to have this iditots bomb fixed!! Merry Christmas to me :(

"Corpulent Caboose Joe"
a la "New Potato Caboose"
Lyrics: Bobby Petersen
Music: Phil Lesh
Last leaf fallen, bare earth where green was born
Above my doorknob, two eagles hang against a cloud
Sun comes up blood red
Wind yells among the stone
All graceful instruments are known
When the windows all are broken
And your love's become a toothless crone
When the voices of the storm sound
Like a crowd
Winter morning breaks, you're all alone
The eyes are blind
Blue visions are all a seer can own
And touching makes the flesh to cry out loud
This ground on which the seed of love is sown
All graceful instruments are known
peace.
Grate band too....
New Potato Caboose in the Washington DC area. I saw them years ago in Philly.
I read a piece this morning about
a virtual game that's extremely popular. Avatars; and some chic actually made a million $$ real currency on the game. Second Life or something like that.Any one here have an Alter-ego-Avatar?
I'm keeping the kids away from that one, just for the fact I know nothing about it, for that matter, is it even a kids game?
I could always google it. he he
Second Life
I have some friends who are really seriously into it. I personally don't see the appeal, but I'm not at all the target market, I don't think. I'm a text kinda girl and all that animated avatar stuff is way too much work!
I tend to concur with your keeping the kids out. Yes, I think a lot of the media hype about predators lurking behind every virtual bush on the Internet is overblown and driven by various agendas I don't support at all. But STILL.
But Still...
Well said! I guess I'm really out of the loop, but where does real money come into play?
Cass enjoys Nick.com & neo pets, which I'm cool with.
Kramer really likes an online game called ruenscape(sp?). I was a little leary at first,but we keep the computer in the dining room and they each get and hour a day. They can split that up between video games or computer time. Before we put a limit on it, things got a bit out of hand. Now we have a chart made up, bc we got really sick of one of them saying "he's had his time, she's had her time"......
What a trip! Never a dull moment
PEACE
I think...
and I hope some Second Lifer will come along to correct me, you charge various enhancements on your credit card and people offer virtual environment-enhancing goods and services to make your online home just exactly perfect, for which of course they charge money. (If you believe the aforementioned media hype, commercial cybersex is quite the industry, for example.)
Now me, I'd go YOU WANT REAL MONEY FOR SOMETHING THAT ONLY EXISTS IN SECOND LIFE??? ARE YOU INSANE???
But hey, I'm 60.
That is too Wild
Its your sense, not your age, bc you are Right ON! I don't get it. Well, I know there are plenty of things I dont get.
Here's one that 's bugging me: Cassidy is 8 yrs old. All of her little friends have gotten cell phones for Christmas. Well now, she's got her panties in a wad ~thanks nannie for that gem~
& I told her she can use our telephone whenever she likes. If she were a latchkey kid or a driver perhaps, but 8.
Get REAL - just trying to pacify those damn kids, that's what I think
Hells bells!
Second LiIfe
Is that for real? Wish I would have thought of it, you get money for nothing. Well the very positive aspect to me seems to be that maybe people would spend their money on virtual stuff and will stop buying all this real stuff and overloading our planet with junk and garbage.

Man,That IS a very positive way of looking at it! Very Impressive. Still, wierd game, but nice twist on it Hal R
PEACE
that's a thought...
I rarely set foot in a shopping mall, thank God, but had to over Christmas due to failing to shop online in a timely fashion. I am just appalled at the endless amounts of useless crapola and the constant pressure to buy it.
Don't know if you
saw my rant a while back, but shopping is not for me. It makes me sweat, even if I'm not spending money.I saw they now offer Decorative on your hip Pepper spray holders that will also carry you ipod (under new inventions on msn)
Crapola, great word!
I Suspect...

winner?

if only it were true that I saw 866 shows... so I still feel like a loser.
Bruiser
If I saw a show for every post that I have drawn
I could tell tall tales all night feelin' very keen
Don't you count the posts baby cause that really blows
And you know I'm only running from the cold
All the shirts in my closet ain't got no collars
And I ride all over this great wide land
You can reach out and pick up a four leaf clover
But I'll always win a game against THE MAN
Last fair hustle in the country, sweet Susie
Last fair hustle in the town
Put your gold money where your game is baby
Before you let me leave this old town
Don't you count the posts baby cause that really blows
Well I know almost nothing that you won't ever know
Don't chew gum or a piece of hard toffee
Gonna play with some suit and make'm feel woe
Everybody's dragging but this cue is mine
I can tell the 8 or 9 ball by the way they shine
Pot the 9 ball on a clean hard break
Well I got no chance of losing this time
Well I got no chance of losing this time

ok, kids
OK, kids.
it is just about that time for me to hit the road again because, I like to move it move it!
gotta get out of this cold rain and snow to where the suns so hot, the clouds so low, the eagles fill the sky
see y'all in a few months!
just remember:
"Don't shake the tree when the fruit ain't ripe
Singing yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Singing thank you, for a real good time"
love and peace.
oh, and LET'S GO GIANTS!!!!!!
Get Back Home, Where You Belong...
and don't you run off, no more, CCj! Happy Trails, man!

So many roads I tell you
New York to San Francisco
So many roads I know
All I want is one to take me home
From the high road to the low
So many roads I know
So many roads so many roads
From the land of the midnight sun
Where the ice blue roses grow
Along those roads of gold and silver snow
Howlin' wide or moaning low
So many roads I know
So many roads to ease my soul"

not exactly sure where to post this, but I'm pretty sure this is the right place. For all who dont know, I'm a sixth grader, and I promptly display that I'm a dead head...(writing about the dead in journal...wear shirts with "dancing deady bears") so she came up to me about 2 weeks ago and said that her boy friend was looking through his basement and found a box of dead live recordings. She snatched one out for me and gave it to me...here's the stuff written out on it (stuff in parenthesis are my comments):

JARHUNDERT HALLE
4/26/72 COMES A TIME
SUGAR MAGNOLIA
(appeared in capital on tape)
----------------------------------------
I'm not a real hard core dead head and only know a few of their songs, but they are my favorite band. The only song I know on it is sugar magnolia, and I dont know what the last part in capital means, with the second date and all...
I'm about to check the tapers section to get a better sense of the songs. Any suggestions as to which ones are real good would be greatly appreciated...I havnt listened to the tape yet because my parents are divorced, and I'm going to be with my mom for another week or two, and my mom doesnt have a tape player at her house...the only one I know of is in my dad's car (which is pretty old).
rightangles
you can look up the details of the two shows on your tape here on this site through 'SHOWS AND LYRICS', select the year of the show and click on the date. It should show the venue and setlist
JA(h)RHUNDERT HALLE is a concert hall in Germany where the Dead played on 4/26/72
You can buy an official CD of selections from that show if you like it, called '100 Year Hall'
I suggest you get your hands on some more of those tapes, but as to what is good and what is not....well that is of course entirely up to you!

Here's one for you....Cosmo the deadhead is at the end of his rope. He's broke, half a continent away from his folks and he needs to get home. All he has left is his dog, Astro. He spies a likely yuppie couple on the way to their Porsche. He says, "Excuse me, I'm broke and I want to sell my dog for bus money. He's special dog, he even talks! Ask him something." The man seems appalled, but the woman is itrigued. "Oh Dale, that would be so kewl! OK, doggie, what's your favorite dead song?" Astro barks "Wharf, wharf, wharf". The couple laugh at this and leave, without buying Astro, of course. Astro looks at Cosmo and says, "maybe I should have said Playin'?"
remember???
