Dark Was the Night by Blind Willie Johnson is one of Ry Cooder's favorites. He has often said he warms up half an hour just to loosen up enough to play the song. Blind Willie Johnson's composition, Dark Was The Night--Cold Was The Ground, was included on a golden record that was sent in the Voyager space probe. The hymn from which Blind Willie Johnson's derived this song comes from the story about Christ...his suffering, pain & crucifixion.

A rival cheese shop is not a problem.
Our limited knowledge precludes The Advice and Cheese Shop from dispensing advice (always for free, no charge) on motorcycles
And advice on pickles? You'll find no better anywhere!
Polski wyrob, as we say.
And now we must catch the plane, boss.

This was no dream, just my imagination and a bit from a Largo tale:
about crazy south american sh-t like a seaside villa destroyed by a giant shark
or my imagining two neighboring volcanoes,
both in eruption and seeming to be having a contest to see who can destroy the most villages;
and the rise and fall of Amazon flood waters,
normal but crazy to outlanders;
and the annual migration of the chick-a-bees
and the fiesta of the chick-a-boom boxes,
both occurring annually in a region in the remote northern corner of Bolivia,
and which provide a backdrop for the eruptions of the two local volcanoes,
both of which endanger several villages and roads in the area.
Go tell it to the mountains.
Let the seas hear of it.
Spread the tale among the trees of the forests
and among the beasts you encounter there.
You could even tell your mama.[Click to View YouTube Video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qd8WeWHrOGE

It's not a 40 year old orchid by any means.
The geranium is akin to a humble field stone.
Everyplace but not noticeable to the unaware.

de Sadie
I was standing on the corner, reading the bill
When up stepped the sheriff from Thomasville
He said, young man, ain't your name Brown?
Remember the night you shot Sadie down?

Take this down and get it out to Brown out on Hemlock Road, say it's from Turner, Otay?.
I remember him on Otay Road in nineteen fifty-six
A faggy little leather boy with a smaller piece of schtick
Keith Richards refused to play on this track because of the onscreen sex between Mick and Anita. Stones recorded and early version but Keith sabotaged it.
Ry did it better

"So remember who you say you are and keep your noses clean
Boys will be boys and play with toys so be strong with your beast
Oh Rosie dear, don'tcha think it's queer so stop me if you please
The baby is dead, my lady said, "You gentlemen, why, you all work for me""

Anybody able to ID this location?
That is a transverse section of a 20 month chicken embryo cochlea
White are cilia
Red and green nerves
Who cares
Deaf people
Chickens regenerate damaged hearing cilia
Researchers are pursuing several approaches to get this to happen in humans who appear to be just about the only ones who cannot regenerate naturally

Llelmbert Doma? Es Llembert Doma!
On second thought, maybe not.
Marianne Faithful was anything but.
Did Brian care?
Does this Brian care?
Maybe. I'm still undecided after all this time. Can you believe it?
Looney's Tunes on Thursday Afternoons *
A joint enterprise of Flames LLC and James Brown Entertainment
Spinning out of the fog in a tight spiral, our hero lands, throws out the mail sack,
turns into the wind, and speeds down the runway and off into the clouds.
Sprinting to the white canvas satchel, Page Goy Bog grabs the mail and runs off to the duty officer in the squadron's HQ.
He salutes, sets the bag on the desk, is saluted in return, and is dismissed.
The captain, smoothing his walrus, gives it a morsel of crab and then takes out a sealed envelope addressed to the unit.
He takes out the paper inside. It is a circular.
It reads:
anyone ever fainted after you've given him that hard stare?
do women wilt when you turn on your charm?
will a wink and your knowing smile make a misbehaving child do as you say?
do guard dogs sniff you and instantly become your friend?
if the answer to these is "NO" then you may be in need of...
ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT!!!!
ADAPTITUDE (ta-da!) is here and it'll do you fine
it's made from McGuffin and it tastes divine
most any time and any place
you'll wear a grin upon your face
it'll please your mom and please your dad
they'll be so happy and won't be mad
in any crowd you can party down
you'll be smiling like a circus clown
ADAPTITUDE available without prescription
at legal outlets in most places
Made in Merced with a lot of love
Two flavors available--Love Not War, and Beyond Furthur
* “If you want a messenger boy, call Western Union.”
—Running back Joe Don Looney, to head coach Harry Gilmer
after Gilmer asked him to send in a play from the sidelines
during what would be among Looney’s final moments as a Detroit Lion

Zembekiko Hour
There is a broadcast channel in Fresno which puts out tapes of old Greek TV shows that I used to watch with John, especially on Saturday evening.
There was an affiliation with the Noor Network, as you can see on the logo on the wall.
Το ζεϊμπέκικο της Ευδοκίας Φώτης Μεταξόπουλος Στην υγειά μας 25 3 17
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjqNjnJ2mY0
This same gang of mostly entertainers sit around and watch people dance and sing in the Greek way.
They'll throw flowers at the dance performers.
Allen Steck may have learned this zembekiko in Berkeley by going to AshCanOzzy. It's a short hop down Uni to SPB.

Or say what?
I can't decide which to say.
