It's a list of SOME former twi musicians, etc. Not all. Ramblin Dan isn't on the list... I'd bet there are others also (who I do not know).

I spent about 6 months in Biloxi... oh, about 34 years ago... (turned 19 while I was there)... but I suspect things don't look much now like they did when I was there....

It IS just a little bit of a consolation... and let's hope HE thinks running for senator is a laughing matter. If he were more along the lines of Bill Bradley, I'd be a little less nervous about his political aspirations. Frankly, I think he likes to express his views, but doubt he'll want to put in the amount of work being a senator will require... especially while his kids are still young. He's always been a bit of a maverick when it comes to speaking out on baseball labor issues. btw, hiway and mstar... if you guys would lend some support over in wRonG's latest tirade about guns I would appreciate it! ;)

Thanks for the link.... but GEE THANKS :blink: for reminding me... I find his political views disturbing.

Yes, Mstar... I do see what you mean about Red Sox fans... Perhaps Schilling will belong in The Hall (of Fame) simply for the fact that he provided a large part of the team leadership that took the Sox over the top of "the curse"! Not that Schilling was a slacker before that... I mean, HEY... WS 2001 CO-MVP! ;)

"Crazy"! I can hear Patsy Cline singing about it now...

As I was the one who first posted it on this thread, let me clarify that it's an exclamation, NOT a literal attribution of credit. I believe the collective "soul" of America, pretty much in unison, regardless of individual beliefs, shares in this heartache, as you expressed.

This man apparently did NOT acquire the weapons LEGALLY. So, there's AT LEAST one other party that must share some responsibility, as the crimes committed in illegally conveying those weapons makes the person, at minimum, an accessory BEFORE the fact... and depending on Virginia state law, may make the weapons provider also legally responsible for felony murder.

Yeah, Beckett got the win... How many people show up for that early of a game?????????? Box score at cbs.sportsline.com says attendance was 35,424. But do THAT many actually show up? I know the Dbacks do (or at least they used to) count all season tickets as having attended, even if no one shows up for a given seat.

Thank God!

It must have stopped raining... as cbs.sportsline.com shows the game now being in the 5th inning... with the Sox enjoying a substantial lead. :blink:

Yeah... I too thought it was pretty cool with Aaron and Frank Robinson there... and no, I didn't hear the chants about Bonds. Jon Miller and Joe Morgan had Rachel Robinson (Jackie's widow) in the broadcast booth with them for a few innings... as well as Hammerin Hank and Frank R (one at a time)... and maybe a couple more folks. I was busy and didn't see the entire game.

HEY!! Welcome back bro! Good to see you! ----------- Yeah, Oakspear, I thought I remembered you saying something like that before...

I don't think so.... since income tax season is wrapping up, it's more like a day of mourning, however! Tonight marks the return of Gonzo. Luis Gonzales, newly of the Dodgers, will patrol left field dressed in Blue instead of his former purple colors (or Dbacks' new color scheme, Sedona Red and Sonoran Sand). Apparently Gonzo's doing well for LA, and will probably be greeted warmly by the Arizona fans tonight.

If I'm not mistaken, the ARE a few GSers here who have some connection with wicca... I recall at least two, but would rather not suggest them by name, in case I would be incorrect.... I've NOT known any wiccans in real life... and I'd be reluctant to personally look into wicca, even though I've heard similar things about wiccans being peaceful, non-aggressive types.

Will that game be televised...nationally?

Great story there Simon. Hiway! I just realized a little while ago that the game you are at (NOW) is the Sunday Night Game of the Week on ESPN. It's also THE Jackie Robinson memorial celebration, or whatever they're calling it. We should have asked where you expect to be sitting! Anyway, the tribute to JR was very classy and very emotional. Not that his was the only voice, but listening to Vin Scully during that tribute, I realized how much his (Vin's) voice is a tonic, or sort of like a medicine to my soul.

Likeaneagle... thanks for posting that link! :)

Well, ya know those chocolate covered "raisins" you bought at the movies the other day... ;) just kidding

Ffffffffft! ( :blink: ) btw, P-Mosh is correct... mergers and acquisitions. :) Sudo... if Groucho asks you to pull his finger.... well, nevermind!

Keep us posted! Has there been any print media coverage of this problem?

I'm pretty sure the situation Simon described was a high school varsity baseball game... I believe his son is a HS senior.

That would be the Lysterine brand mouthwash. This item has been marketed as a product to help kids see where they need to do a better job brushing...

Very much so! :) I wouldn't PERSONALLY call him "yummier" or even "yummy"... but he's no doubt always had girls/women get "mushy" with him. I also knew him to have a great degree of personal integrity... And he's obviously been an "adventurer" far more than I ever would consider doing/being.

Yes... he was a L.E.A.D. instructor. he was into rock climbing and had the ropes and caribeeners and things before he went in the corpse... I think he might have been in the 12th... I forget exactly... Just over 26 years ago now... he and I and two others (also in twi) went hiking and camping in the Grand Canyon. It was a great time... The day before we left for that trip, we all went to the Fiesta Bowl to watch Penn St and Ohio St play. Dan is a Penn St alum. I forget who won that game. Anyway, I got to thinking about that trip right about the time of the 25th anniversary of the trip... so, I googled Dan and found him. We've chatted on the phone just a little... He taught 6th grade at a public school in Phoenix before going in res in the way corpse...
