I have an idea. How about a bipartisan approach to fixing Obamacare? Hm? Anyone?

He does come across like Abe Simpson... but it was an entertaining old guy rant. Kids these days! -

Godwin's law invoked... You can fill in the blanks. Moving on... Here's what rankles me about health insurance in our country. The other day, my wife and I went to an out-of-network service provider. My wife is pregnant, and the service provider does labwork on blood samples to screen for various DNA and chromosome anomalies to give you a rough risk assessment of what health issues our baby might face, like Down syndrome, for example. Now, the cost to get this done, if run through our insurance, was estimated to be around $900. But, the crazy thing is, if we opted to just pay for it o

I think the plan is to keep cranking out the Betty boards shows.

Dave's 23 is 1/22/78. A Betty Cantor recording...

I had completely forgotten about this, and had assumed that this thing was dead, but I got an e-mail from Ticketmaster alerting me that there's new shows available for my ticket vouchers, of which I have 5 left. So, I got all excited to see what's out there. There's one show, and it's for "Bobby Bones & The Raging Idiots, Class of 2017" at House of Blues, on Sunday Aug 6. Jesus Fucking Christ. This is the kind of shit I would expect my mom to forward to me.

When you find out that you share an opinion with Steve Bannon... Yep, I too think that Paul Ryan is a limp dick motherfucker.

Some Rs have already come out to say they won't vote for something that doesn't repeal AND replace.

At one point during the flute solo, it sounds like someone's attempting a modem dial-up.

Was hoping to see that same trade but, for Verlander instead of Quintana, but his price tag is way too high, and he's a lot older than Quintana. Cubs gave up a lot, but I love when teams say "fuck it, let's win now."

That's probably right.

^ Do you think he would have released them voluntarily? If so, why wait until the threat of publication?

I don't get it. What's going on in that GIF?

I have nothing against John Mayer. His talent is obvious, but his playing does nothing for me. I caught just the tiniest bit of the 1st set live-thing on youtube last night: It was the Cassidy jam and all of Big Railroad Blues. Now, I am the biggest fan of BRR Blues, especially the one linked to below, which I've mentioned plenty of other times. The version last night was competent, but it certainly didn't have the joy that I can hear in the version below. And maybe that assessment of BRR Blues sums up how I feel about Dead & Co. It's fine. It's competent, it just doesn't get me going

5 Fave Songs from a Fave Band
Winston Legthigh replied to Passenger Sid's topic in Someone Else's Song
Jeez. Grateful Dead takeover... Dark Star Eyes of the World Estimated Prophet Bertha Scarlet B > Fire -
I agree. But it's also sad that he felt obliged - to the fans, to the Dead business "family" and everyone else whose income was derived from the Dead to keep the train going. Cherry Garcia is continually in our freezer (perhaps not as often as Chubby Hubby, the BEST B&J flavor, but CG is a close second...). Every time I put a pint of CG into my basket, I think about the fact that he contemplated a nice "retirement" fund of living off the ice cream money, and it makes me sad.

It's really sad. Just like the final "chapter" of the recent GD documentary, which focused on Jerry's decline and demise. The thing that he helped create, with the focus being fun and copious joy, turned into a thing that devoured him.
-
Your memory is right, pretty much. It's like Garcia is stuck in a loop that you know he's trying to play Wharf Rat, but it's not quite right. My 4 year old will kind of stutter, and repeat the same 2-3 words to the beginning of a sentence as he's trying to figure out the rest of what he's trying to say, and it eventually comes out, but it doesn't take the 6 minutes like the Dead were doing here. But then I can't figure out how they got it all to click in time for the waltz.
-
ouch. Just started listening to it now. I'm not quite sure what's going on there. It's not until they sing "the other half found me stumbling around drunk on burgundy wine", right before the time signature change into the waltz, that they find the groove, but is that Jerry's fault? Seems that the drummers weren't in sync with him. Regardless, it was frustrating to listen to.

Here's the Carla Bruni cover you never knew you wanted.

As soon as the dude listed Good Day Sunshine as their worst song, I knew I was in for a rough ride.
