I rated that photo high as it goes. I'd give it six stars, one for each.
Take me back to Indio...

More cowbell, please."

Leave them cows alone!
er ... teacher - leave them cows alone!
All in all, we don't need no education. Thought control, likewise I'm sure.

"I sure wish Sky were here." THE SUJUNCTIVE IN ACTION! TV used to be so...literary, literal, loveable.
Like Sky's niece, Peggy.
Is there a magazine called Arizona Flyways?
How much WERE bus tickets to the naval base at Sammy Eggo from AZ in the fifties if one were to seek asylum from the depredations of greedy hay farmers?
Will Sky return in time to nail the bad guys?

This is a comment by ovaljimmy over on the Youtube
In very early 70's RJE was usually 30/45 min. late to his performance's. That would give me & my buddy's time to get good and trashed. We would go out for a toke & in for a drink. We would go out for a drink and in for a toke. Then RJE would come flyin' in on a little higher level and fill the Ash Grove with the best acoustic sound our ears ever heard. He'd walk the audience, stop at our tables and play in our faces. And nobody cared what time it was.
Must be someone out there who can empathize.

Where's Sky, Penny? He shoulda been here by now.
Ominous.
My mom, Mommyness.
This is her with her hair as closte to its natural shade as it ever was in the seventies.
Shasta is so old it has white hair.
Crater Lake is just blown away at how young Shasta looks.
Same as it ever was...
[Click to View YouTube Video]This is not my natural hair color. This is not my beautiful mountain. This is not the blue. All my money's gone.
I sometimes ask now, where has it gone, this lifetime?

We will remember the Trojan Cowboy, Troy McClueless, shill for shoddy, shameless shyster, and someone's blue-eyed angel child.
RIP.

I must have woken up with something other than bullfrogs on my mind.
I woke late and only got this type of scene on the fifth floor fire escape.
{Choose picture}Then I posted like a {generally clean but homely simile};
& then, when it came time to relax and get out on my bike for a change,
I noticed the dust on the bookcase , and before I knew what I did,
I decided to vacuum the carpet and mop the tile and dust the bathtub.
But before it all began, I must have sung a little song.

Or maybe two.

señor? señor?
Can you tell me where we're headin'
Mariposa County or Darmageddon?
Seems like I been down this way before
Is there any truth in that, señor?
It is not true, as has been alleged, that Las Cuatro Milpas is a tatoo parlor. It is rumoured that not only a shirt and shoes, but also a hat are required for service. Which service, the Navy man, we're talkin' San Diego here.

Is it their first 3-hour tour?
Are they here to rock the boat?
Willie Mays played center field.
His number was never number 4.
Carl William Mays (November 12, 1891 – April 4, 1971) was a right-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball from 1915 to 1929. He is primarily remembered for throwing the beanball that killed Ray Chapman of the Cleveland Indians on August 16, 1920. Chapman became the only major league player to die as a direct result of an on-field injury. He finished his career as one of the New York Giant Apples.
Don't call him Chappie.
Willie Howard Mays, Jr. (born May 6, 1931), nicknamed "The Say Hey Kid" is a retired American professional baseball player who spent the majority of his Major League Baseball (MLB) career as a center fielder with the New York and San Francisco Giants before finishing with the New York Mets. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1979 in his first year of eligibility. Mays' number 24 is retired by the San Francisco Giant Sloths.
Call him like neebee might (will sooner or later): 'Say Hey, Kid. There, there, everyone strikes out....'
Though both wore baseball cleats professionally, CARL is the one history remembers as eventually using a pair on a failed (obviously) winter attempt on Mt. WA in 1921.
Amaizing faces in the (admittedly old) news.
