5th grade for me, those were some great B ball days. The kids for the Lakers, the old man cheering for the Celtics. Generational battle. Not so much like that now, but still looking forward to it. Hope the Celtics stay awake for all 4 quarters. I haven't kept up on Bball much, usually just watch the playoffs. How is Kobe better than Jordan?

Any of the above is powerful stuff. There is definite power in messing with body fluids. We gathered 3 gallons of urine at our party a couple weeks ago, and boiled it over the fire. It was grrrrrrrrrooosssss. Ended up looking like antifreeze.

Me too. Like a Nirvana cover? That song is the best. I love it.

Here is an excellent source for seed from around the world that has adapted to the midwest climate, although they have customers nationwide. There is a ton of info in their forum, as well. http://rareseeds.com/ If you are in the Northeast this is a company that fights the power. Their artwork and slam on Monsanto et al. is refreshing. http://www.fedcoseeds.com/ Someone mentioned garlic, yeah I am going to try that as well. Half the education of gardening seems to be learning that it is a year round experience.

I don't know that we can all agree on all of it. I do appreciate oceanman's offer to have a drink and have a little discourse at the next show if the planets should align. I must admit Wilco is the only band I have picked up on in the last few years. Most of my favs are dead or too old to sing. We just get psyched to see Wilco. I don't think I'll apologize for anything we did, I might seek out the wild bunch the next time I go to make sure we are all in the same vibe. And to the dude who said I can't come to Tulsa, was that not a good f'n show? I can't remember a more lively crowd/band inter -
I think it sounds like Rod Stewart. Sometimes that is good, sometimes it is cum belly stomach pump.

Uh, yeah, I was kindof watching the show, not talking to fans or security, which itself could be considered a distraction. Isn't that what the root problem is, a distraction from your connection to the band? I apologize for assuming that you desire a clean recording. Not being a smartass, I really mean it. As for rude, it was an misunderstanding between 4 people. Tweedy said, hey chill, that was it. Were there any other problems after that? -
That son of a bitch is dead, too. I respect his burial method Utah's wish was to not be embalmed and laid to rest in a plain, hand made wooden coffin to expedite his return to the earth, which we will honor.

The shrieking occured during one song and it was for Patmylump not for hatin on neighbors. Maybe this about ownership of a recording to add to your history/archive proof of existence. Tweedy looked down and said chill due to the fracas, not the screaming. What is going to happen when the Rage fans meet the Wilco fans at some festivals this summer? -
We had a fellow in our small town that embodied the Seeger persona, even looked a lot like him. It was truly sad to see him go. These people are dying breed. Johnny Cash, rip. I almost wish others like Dylan and Willie would croak to get it over with. I fear the future when I think of the loss of these people and others like them. Who else protests the man? Rappers do it consistently, but their message is so common its become marginalized. Rage had its run. Bruce has some time left, that's good. Fogerty too. Neil. Eddie Vedder tries but after watching Charlie Rose w/ Sean Penn I determined

What happened Friday did not warrant face punching and removal by security, it was a couple of brushes from arm to arm. We are aware of 'those' people although, that is still part of a show sometimes and doesn't mean 'that' person is evil or should be executed or that the drink is to blame, merely a contributing factor. Shit, maybe you were going through some things that made you want to let loose when you were 'that' guy. We are all water and dna, etc. have some compassion. -
I just finished watching the documentary and thought this was worth sharing to the Vietcong But the overarching theme is his unique approach to music. For Seeger, music is a tool to bring people together, and that, as much as the singing, is the point. As we see him leaving the stage of Carnegie Hall at the end of a concert when he was 84, he says in voiceover,

I thought he was referring to Gilbert Godfried or whatever his name is. They guy is unnerving. -
Hybrid bikes are probably the best choice. Road bike diameter wheels, but a little fatter on the tire for safety, comfort. Mount bike geometry and bars for comfort. Pretty affordable..300- 1300. The entry level bike (300) will do what you need. Here is an example, though most bike companies are virtually the same at this price point. http://www.konaworld.com/08_dew_w.htm http://www.fisherbikes.com/bike/series/path

I say that in jest as my wife and friend of mine love his grandstanding. I, however, am in love with Jay the sloth and his dangling smokes. -

Rationalization is another term for our perception of the situation. As I reflect upon events, I see it through my lens. Now if I am subconsciously altering my perception to protect my ego then you could call that rationalization, as it is a protective mechanism. Many stoners can rationalize days, months, away. The discussion of why we attend rock concerts used to be universal. We seek meaning through a group experience. We intend to get lost in the moment as the performers manipulate our senses. Perhaps the new crowd, which I am evidently not assimilated to, desires an individual grasp of a -

I'm all for the middle ground, herein lies the problem...the statues and the dancers aren't finding it. I am also thinking getting drunk has different effects for each individual. For instance, I am a German, I get jolly and dance, my wife is Scottish, she gets evil. I am starting to believe the drink will soon follow the stoge in terms of regulation if the VietCong had their way. The particular incidents I have been referring to are us moving around a bit, I really wouldn't call it dancing, then ever so slightly brushing up against someone and I am being totally honest about this. I thin -

Like their other albums they have their place for the times of your life. About a month ago SBS was my personal Jesus. I think I am in moratorium now with the talk of a new album. Still jonesin for the SBS tour video.

My dad was into that shit during the Clinton years, which hopefully will remain in the past. That shit drove me insane. Continued w/ the onset of O'Reilly, even bought us kids his book, which my sister, embarrasingly traded into a bookstore. She is still upset about that. Thankfully, he now watches the other grandstander, Olbermann.

Point taken. Now I can only see Wilco in KC and ? Anyone else drunk haters? Hey, shit, some folk have few chances to have fun, to let loose. I keep thinking back to the good old days when people got rowdy at shows. To me the good old days are the 90's. I really have not been to many shows in the last 8 years or so. When I first began to attend Wilco shows in 06 I loved the crowd contagion. It seems lately things are becoming possessive. Like in Lawrence, some douchebag buffoon claimed he owned a spot on the lawn because he was there since 6.30. Come on. You can't expect to own a 3' diameter sp -

We all apologize for trying to show Wilco that we love them. I was part of the troublesome entourage. After the show we discussed our situation w/ the band and they seem to understand what happened and were cool about it. I suppose we'll avoid the poopy venues...sticking closer to the 'uncouth' venues, e.g. KC, Tulsa, you know, where the hicks and cowboys roam. I seem to recall Jeff emphasizing how great those crowds were and hey, we were there, yelling, screaming, having a good whisky soaked time. And, more for me than you, this is my last post and look at this mutha board. There are some coo -

Or Jesus, etc. The crowd kind of melts together like hippy lovers when its played. It's also pretty mellow so the old folks won't be too put off by it, although they still long for some Frankie or Nat King Cole. -

Rockin. We were glad to pitch in for the wedding fund and help w/ the Wilco orientation. I'll have to ask the other 'apostles' what song to play. This is a really important decision, you know. Yeah, Hermann was great. We intended to recover by sipping wine but ending getting sloshed at the beer tent while dancing to polka. Yeah, we danced our arses off there, as well.
