Sorry Kimberly. That wasn't cool, laying that on you.

Enjoy that crazy woman's music.

Ha ha, they also bonded over lame Dave Matthews. Ha ha ha ha ha! Sorry Dave Matthews fans. It's not for me, that stuff.

"but sparrow and the tinman bonded over her."

Chalk it up 2 "cold welding" or "vacuum sintering" and you'll be okay...

hey, that's one of my ol' pepper logs - 6" diameter x 18" long, built 2 last 4 hours (and I AIN'T seeking immediate medical help if I'm right and it does!!).

For weaver, if she's reading here (I hope she is!):

Tonio K., "Living Doll"

"She was looking good
She was a beautiful girl
From a tenth generation American dream world.
To look at her you'd never guess
That she could hurt so bad in such a beautiful dress

'Cause

1. She had the perfect smile
2. She'd been the perfect child
3. She looked as if she had it all

She was a living doll!

She'd been looking around for a new situation
Beyond sex and short-term stimulation.
'Cause everyone she'd ever known
Had treated her like something they owned,

So

1. She played the little girl
2. She was afraid of the whole wide world
3. She felt so helpless and so small

She was a living doll!

She'd never been given a minute of love
Unless she met the conditions.
And it made her so mad that her heart froze up
And the pain turned into a prison.

It was a miracle when she came to life
When true love cut through the pain like a knife.
Now when the coast is clear and the past is buried
Who knows - she might even get married.

1. She kinda met this guy
2. He ain't perfect but he's alright
3. Now she can't wait for him to call
4. He kinda likes her too
5. She ain't perfect but he says she'll do
6. He keeps her picture on the wall

'Cause he thinks she's a living doll!"

Gray is juust barely here... workin' on Time of the Preacher a bit... too tired to accomplish much, and playing bar chords on my dad's '63 Martin (frets by the nut are worn down to NOTHING) is giving me hand cramps. Need to toughen up there.

Hiya Binder.

What can I say? There's not much room on this here ole' log. My butt's gotten bigger sittin' around eating Marshmellows!

Surly, huh? I think you're handling things beautifully. Surly you may feel but who wouldn't after your interaction with the Righteous Hypocritical ILs tonight? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> You're a good guy, Binder.

Love the music tonight, 2Long, but can't say I've ever heard it. What kind is it?

Bring along your telescope? I need a new star to wish on.

Tonio K could be a little raw at times. Heck, a lot raw!

I only had one of his albums (vinyl, sometime in the early 80's). I've never heard that song, and I hope it's as beautiful as it reads, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's not.

One of my favorites of his, ...if i can find it on the internet, was "Futt Futt Futt". Very silly!

Gray, you wimp. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

You talked them into playing it, then? (TotP)

You guys looked like you were having a good time last night. I was around but didn't want to barge in on your boys-only club. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

So I just skulked around in the dark behind the bushes and listened to you y'all say "Underwear", lol. Or was that JLS?

And someone was shrieking like a shrew. . . (grin)

Play s'more (ha ha) 2long, I like that Tonio K.

Is there any beer left? Beer is an excellent source of alcohol!

I'm going to cope through beer....an oft underrated strategy. I'm not an alcoholic you see....alcoholics go to meetings. And those meetings are for quitters!!

Howzabout a can this time....the caps are playing havoc with these "soft hands". (quoting the met....never mind)

I found it!!! HAH!!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Sing along with me, friends!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

"FUTT FUTT FUTT" -Tonio K.

This one is for Mr. Schwitters
This one is for kurt.
E toqto to tkagoqdi
Exuaigemaeo koqta merz

This one's got a snappy chorus
You can sing along
See, there is beauty even in the garbage
Sing the garbage song

You just go:

Futt futt futt
Futt futt futt
Bah!
I am stupid

Futt futt futt
Futt futt futt
Bah!
I am stupid

Futt futt futt
Futt futt futt
Yes
I am stupid

Futt futt futt futt
Futt futt futt futt
Futt futt futt futt
Futt futt futt futt

This one has no doubt confused you.
You are maybe hurt?
Do not let this life abuse you
You are not so worthless:

(A) You're an integral and valuable
Part of some master plan, or

(B) Clearly as important as a dirtclod
Or that can

Sing it out now:

Futt futt futt
Futt futt futt
Bah!
I am stupid

Futt futt futt
Futt futt futt
Bah!
I am stupid

Futt futt futt
Futt futt futt
Yes
I am stupid

Futt futt futt futt
Futt futt futt futt
Futt futt futt futt
Futt futt futt futt

[Innovator in the art of collage, part-time composer, and full-time poet/archaeologist Kurt Schwitters petitioned for something he referred to as the Merz Stage. This was to be, conservatively, life enacted before a paying audience. Nothing much would happen on stage; everything would (sooner or later) happen on stage. Among the things Kurt wrote into the "soundtrack" of his play were sewing machines singing and an organ that played the notes futt, futt, and futt.]

I do believe real men drink beer. . . or something a bit harder.

And too many of our Metro friends prefer imbibing in "Mixed Drinks". . .a la cosmopolitan, appletini, etc.

So I think you are safe. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

You do wear flannel shirts, right, Binder? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

By the way. . .what *is* this stuff?

Flannel shirts, long johns, a toque and sorel boots...that's what all us Canadians wear.

This stuff...if your are inquiring about the nectar of the gods with which we imbibe, is called Traditional Ale and is brewed by a local company called Big Rock, which, BTW, draws it's water from a mountain creek just west of my cabin.

I'm out...another. You should have one too, I start to look pretty darn good and my jokes get better with the more beer you consume.

"ALWAYS BELIEVED IN YOU" -Tonio K.

I was born in california
In the u.s.s. of a.
I was born in california
In the u.s.s. of a.
I was never supposed to know a moment of unhappiness in my life
Somehow it didn't work out that way

I was born back in the fifties
I was born and raised to win
I was born back in the fifties
I was born and raised to win
We had beaten back the darkness
Somehow the darkness snuck back in

I went lookin' for a lover
But i did not know the rules
I went lookin' for a lover
Like a young man's got to do
(But i did not know the rules)
I made six wrong turns and nearly died
The seventh time i made it through
(Now i'm gonna play the suburban blues)

If i ever get to heaven
Which i hope i'm gonna do
If i ever get to heaven
Which i'm pretty sure i'm gonna do
I'm gonna walk up to the boss man and say:
"I couldn't believe some of the things that went on down there
I couldn't believe some of the things i myself wound up involved in down there
I couldn't believe some of the things some of my friends wound up involved In down there, and finally convinced me to get involved in with them
I couldn't believe some of the things some of the people took down there and did down there
I couldn't believe some of the things i saw on television down there
But lord, i always believed in you"

Another? I would love another but I fear for the delicate constitution of my eardums if our beloved 2Long doesn't lower the boom. I will be having Futt! Futt! nightmares. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

If I'm going to have to listen to that all night, I need something stronger! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Where are my ear plugs???

:: slh retreating to her tent to rummage for something to cover ears. Ah-ha! -- a bra tied under the chin will work just peachy, the cups stuffed with socks and well-placed over the ears ::

Victoria would faint dead away. . . Beloved turquoise satin masterpiece crowning my cranium like a loony granny she-devil with shimmery blue horns. Hardly what ole Victoria had in mind.

Can we go fishing tomorrow? Maybe I can craft this puppy into a net of sorts! Man, I always wanted to be McGyver. . .

Goodnight all.

Okay, uh, so, now that I'm alone and sleepless again... I'll complain a little.

Every time I try to write songs they wind up being about my stupid wife.

Every time I feel lonesome it reminds me I've been cheated.

Sometimes, when I eat dinner by myself, I just wanna throw the plate across the room and leave the mess to dry up and turn nasty where it lands.

I see the couples on the street outside my house, so many of them, walking their dogs, walking their babies, or just strolling together, and it feels like I'll be alone forever.

Women here have told me I'll be snapped up quick. HA! I go out whenever I get the chance, and the band plays out often nowadays. I'm outgoing and approachable, yet I don't meet anyone new. Women out there are so damned guarded.

Will I remain so caught up in my own business that my thoughts are always turned inward?

Sparrow stretched this out just long enough so I'll be too tied up working on the house (a financial necessity) to do much of anything else this summer. Thanks, you thoughtless b***h. Thanks for being gutless, for holding out and stupidly hoping that I, the most principled and patient man you know, who told you in a clear, certain voice that I would not help you divorce me... thanks for expecting me of all people to get fed up and do your dirty work for you. Thanks for fighting so hard for all the cash you could get, so you can throw our money at that nasty little hunchbacked, pot-bellied pipsqueak you've shacked up with, leaving me in a season of servitude. That's two summers you've ruined for me.

Aaaaah, a little relief.

My isolation is deepening.

Glad my friend from CA is coming to stay with me this weekend.

I guess this is just a more frustrated version of what now?
