TigerLilly suggested this one after GypsySoul thought she deserved an Iron Bladder Award, or some such, for superhuman endurance as reported in the Bathroom Break topic. So nominate your pals for silly awards here. Silly but kind awards...

C.C. Joe

better hurry back to us, otherwise cosmicbadger will have booted him out of the "best wise-cracker" position. At least their styles are so different that we can have TWO posters keeping us highly amused. Or some of us anyhow!

Golden Nugget Award

To Hal R. I suspect that that is what izzy is referring to in her "storyteller of the year" nomination, and NOT the Zippy the Pinhead story (which was very well told too), but... Just in case will put up the Golden Nugget nomination for your lovely tale in the tapers' section. Was soo good that two mentions don't hurt. Perhaps Bob's fetish for repeating himself is contageous :-) Seems to have infected the tapers' section anyhow.

Thank you for the Storyteller of the year award

Thanks izzie and marye. I will place this honor on the top of my resume. I also want to thank our three cats, Mondo, Junior and Bliss for truly helping me understand what David Gans was talking about. Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.) Walt Whitman-Song of Myself

A serious award for Richard Thompson

http://www.richardthompson-music.com/catch_of_the_day.asp?id=1350 And I was listening to 'Pour Down Like SIlver' when I saw this on Eurotraders. So what's it like to become part of the establishment RT? Did you tell the Queen you would meet her on the ledge?

yeah

I'm sure mixed emotions are involved, but it's pretty cool just the same!

RT

I thought he looked pretty pleased about the whole affair. Good for him, not bad for a California dude, by way of London, England. So...I ordered his new Live at BBC box from Universal in the UK. Received a shipping notification on 6/14, hasn't arrived yet. CB, how long should I wait before I start getting nervous? No idea what a typical overseas delivery would be, and no tracking info either...

Christmas in July?

Is that a nuclear war, and a coronation of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ?An outstanding halo will prove it to all.

RT

Gratefaldean - in my experience of sending vines, shipping to the US normally takes 10 -14 days so you should get it soon.....hope you do anyway. I have not ordered 'Live at the BBC' yet, but I should do.. Does Thompson live in California now? I had no idea. Anyway he does indeed looks pleased to get some recognition from his home country. Good for him; he is right up there with the best of them..

definitely!

one suspects this was not on his mind back in the day. Or any other time either. But it's well deserved and it's a treat to see. (And folks, if RT comes to your town and you have not seen him, check him out, and not just because the Queen likes him now!)

Arise Sir Alex

Congratulations to Alex Allan on his knighthood. Officially it is for his public service including as the UK Chairman of the Joint Intelligence Committee. But we know it is for his services as a Deadhead, prioprietor of the Grateful Dead Lyric And Song Finder (www.whitegum.com) and author of sleeve notes for the Europe 72 Set.

heh
