Mama was at the show. Her second Stone's concert. Told me they played for 2-1/2 hours. She said it was killer!! It was after all The Rolling Stones. Live!!!

Well, if we leave it alone, maybe it'll just go away on its own, who knows?!

Don't like to hear this about you, rustystud, but sometimes a hospital is the right place to be. You think yourself well in there, and keep in mind there are plenty of us here thinking you well to get out of there soon. God bless you, Man!

Tell you what, it works for me!

Hard not to like Dr. Seuss. He did some propaganda writing during WWII also if I remember right (if I find it I'll post it). For the record, I worked sales and marketing for J.A. Jones Construction for a good stretch of my career and they fed us a LOT of sales books (part of the program)...

You might have something there, M813rc, reading is its own reward, pick whatever YOU like! Here's a selfie I took of me reading a new book I started the other day: - It must be a mystery novel because hard as I try I STILL can't figure it out

That place was a hotbed of ingenuity, for sure. Brings to mind some of the great quotes of Thomas Alva Edison (Inventor). Here's one: - "There is always a better way. Find it."

That's not "under-appreciation", Mr. marchplumber, you gave it a shot and it plain was not your cup of tea. Some people think old Melville talks too much. I get that. Likely the key is always to "go for what you like". That way you never get disappointed!

Not much luck... But if you want Civil War photos, they're LOADED.

It is little known, but the U.S. Library of Congress holds a pretty remarkable collection of photography, and for the cost of reproduction you can get a print of anything in the collection. Wonder if they have some shots of your SR-71 you might want? http://www.loc.gov/pictures/

I have read that book 4 times, always find something new. The plan is one more reading, after that I call it quits (back to "Goodnight, Moon"!).

I got a cure: - When things get bad, I just go for a little ride!

So, CARMAN and me got together over lunch and afterwards I checked out his little buggy out in the lot: - A right fine compact roadster, don't you all think?

Mr. Tracer, you are ON to something right there!! Let's you and me make it a business. We can use the net profits to cover our popcorn expenses. What do you think?!!

It IS quite a book, isn't it? Aye..."The Whale", by Melville...arghhhh. And of all those many pages, the single sentence that boils ALL of it down to the essence might just be this: - "From beneath his slouched hat Ahab dropped a tear into the sea; nor did all the Pacific contain such wealth...

That's fun. It's great! Thanks, Chappie!!

You bet. Private Message on the way!

For sure, yessir, that's a fine mandolin melody! Led Zeppelin had a few good mando tunes, too. You know "Going to California"?!

Everybody leaves TOWN when I play... Wow. That's a beaut! Is that a Gibson?!!

I have discovered also that I have NO musical talent, either! But why let small details get in the way of any endeavor, right?!
