  1. According to Associated Press writer David Bauder, Tuesday ,11/21/06, is the release date set for a brand new Beatles album. It will be titled,simply,"Love". This project is the work of Giles Martin who is the son of George Martin. It was recorded primarily at Abbey Road Studios. The album melds and mixes familiar Beatles tunes. Here is an example: "Strawberry Fields" combined with "Hello,Goodbye","Baby You're A Rich Man","Penny Lane" and "Piggies". It all sounds pretty unlikely but the project is said to be endorsed by both remaining Beatles as well as the two widows. I think I'll reserve my judgement until I hear it.
  2. Socks------- To the best of my knowledge, ALL puppies require serious "paper work"!
  3. Jonny--------Though the black bears tend to be less aggressive than the brown bears(of which the grizzly is a member) they can also be quite dangerous. A sow defending her cubs is not something you would ever want to encounter. In northeast Ohio/northwest PA., local communities have been known to ban bird feeders as the feed attracts black bears. Unlike brown bears, black bears have the ability to climb so that compounds the danger. WG---------Glad to hear that all were OK in your latest incident. As to GVT. profits, in many locales, the proceeds from hunting and fishing licenses go into funds that benefit conservation measures and thereby benefit both the wildlife and the human population as well.

    Very early on, there was a band called "Knox County Band". The name was derived from their home base in Knox County Ohio. Dean was a guitar player in this group if my memory serves me correctly. PPL was,in a convoluted sense , a mutation of this group. "Ellenwood's Garden" is (as I recall) a tip of the hat to Deans' influence. Vince Gill was also somehow connected to this bunch of young hopefuls as I believe that he too was from the same area. It's been a lot of years since all this happened so my recollections may not be accurate. Jerry Douglas(Dobro Player ,Supreme) was from an area somewhat to the north.(Youngstown, Ohio)

    Pure Prairie League once did a song called "Ellenwoods' Garden". Why does that name ring a bell? :)

    ChattyK.---------Perhaps that has EVERYTHING to do with what is being said! (Not the "knowing stuff " part)

    Many thanks dmiller-------This is perhaps one of the greatest blues albums ever released. This is one of those projects where you completely forget about technique and become lost in the raw emotion that was captured. As a side note(Perhaps of interest to T-Bone and Chas.): The bass player on this one is Donald"Duck"Dunn who paid the bills by playing for Booker T and The MG's but is perhaps best known as the bass player for "The Blues Brothers". Muddy's slide work is like a measuring stick for future bottleneck players. Sam Lay and Buddy Miles are still out working though I'm not sure of "Duck"s' current status. Thanks again for posting that pic.

    dmiller--------Nope. It's the one where God is stretching out his hand trom above down to man. On the cover, God more closely resembles Muddy Waters while Man resembles Paul Butterfield( with Butter wearing his trademark shades) I do like the one you posted,however, and can see where that one could also make a great album cover.

    Oh, how I envy you, Chatty one. If only I had the strength to part with cd's. I hang on to just about everything with the thought that "someday I'll learn that riff." Of course I never do because I'm not a riff copier kind of guy. Recently I once again lost track of my current copy of "Electric Mud", which is Muddy Waters' attempt at psychodelic music. It's one of my all time favorites next to another Muddy album called "Fathers and Sons". It has some really steller guitar work by Mike Bloomfield not to mention the harp work of Paul Butterfield. I haven't seen any posts from keyboard players here but to any who are looking in, I recommend this same album for some of Otis Spann's best and most soulful tickling of the ivory. Lots of other greats on here too,hence the title "Fathers and Sons". Oh, I forgot to mention that the album cover is a take-off on the famous Michaelangelo painting that depicts God reaching down to man. I don't know how to post that sort of thing but it is pretty cool if you can get a glimpse of it somewhere.
  11. I'm gonna leave here walkin', partner, 'cause I'm pawnshop bound. I need some money in my pocket 'cause I feel like I'm sinkin' down. Sorry, just foolin' around while we're waiting for Pawnbroker That's from "Pawnshop Bound" by Wm. Clarke Mr. Pawn, Pawn Pawnin' broker I need to talk to you I have a hard time When my little rent comes due.
  12. Air conditioners predate WWI and Coke derived its' name from one of its' more notorious ingredients,cocaine. How old must I be to know silly trivia like that?
  13. Putting all PFAL references aside for a moment, may I point out that in biological studies there is a theory that is refered to as the "lock and key theory". This theory is based on genetics and has no connection to any biblical references. IMO, VPW simply restated it to serve his purpose. Elephant +Rhino?------Elephino!

    Tom Strange---------I can't really tell from the pic but it looks like that may be a diddly bow. A diddly bow is a one stringed guitar and people make them in all kinds of variations. I'm basing my guess on the fact that the pick-up is sideways and there are no visable tuning machines. Then again, maybe it's a shillaylee that floated over from another thread.
  15. I'm a bit pressed for time but let me just say this: Hmmmph!
  16. Jonny--------Thanks for the biographical info. I saw on the news recently that the fiasco with fresh spinach may have been caused by fecal matter from wild boars. There have been sighting of wild pigs in virtually all the lower 48 states. Wild geese present a similar problem in that areas that they frequent easily become contaminated with E-coli from their droppings. Black bears are constantly increasing in numbers and consequently becoming a danger. It's not too unusual to see coyote roadkill, but recently I saw one stand beside a busy road and wait for traffic to clear, much like you would expect of a domestic dog. I don't know what the answers are but I think we need to continue to search for them. Harp on, fellow bender.
  17. Jonny--------- If you will,consider : a.) The slang definition of Bozo b.) The meaning of "bus" as related to computers c.) They traveled into the future in a time machine Well, I think it will become apparent that they may have gleaned this material from the lost teachings of PFAL that were so calously dashed asunder on the cutting room floor. Don't mind me. I've been up for days shooting reds and yellows.
  18. Alas and alak(is that a real word?)-----Would that I could but reread and reread this rereadable thread with a view toward non-posthumously posting on its' potent(that's slang for "important") pertanence. Yea, if only I had the time. Oh wait. -----There it is at the bottom of my screen --------9:35PM Nevermind.
  19. I was in the memorial thread awhile ago and saw that an old friend,Paul C**per, had passed. I thought about the times a half dozen or so of the guys would meet at his house on Friday night to watch the weekly airing of B movies with a certain late nite host. Little Shop Of Horrors (the original) was always good for a good chuckle. The host would periodically interject sound effects( like an "ahoogah" horn as Buck Rogers rocket lifted off for atrip into space. Sometimes when an alien would have dialog, he would dub over "PAPPA OO MOW MOW". We tossed lines from Firesign Theatre back and forth and there was NEVER( an unspoken rule) any teaching, prayer, manifestations,etc. Just some guys eating pizza(ZA), drinking pepsi(SI) and totally unconcerned with anything outside that darkened room(THE BOUD./shortened from BOUDOIR ) It was all long before so much of the craziness set in.
  20. GarthP2000------------Sorry.I always thought he was playing off that line in "People Get Ready" by Curtis Mayfield where Curtis says "Don't need no ticket, you just thank The Lord." :(
  21. T.S. -------I trust that's not the same track the "Mystery Train" traverses.
  22. Seems to be a bit like forbidding the kids to eat chocolate then doesn't it? It's all been done before. The USSR and Nazi Germany being examples that come to mind. When you make a fruit "forbidden" it only becomes that much more desired."Jesus freaks out in the streets, sellin' tickets for goin'".(Tiny Dancer) Could it be it's merely the cost of admission that has him disgruntled?
  23. (but not for making acid)---------I wonder if that's where they got the line"I've got a real cool 'head', I'm makin' lots of 'bread'."?
  24. Added note: TWI says we can't know God by the five senses. What other avenues do we really have?When we witness a baby being born, when we hear its' first cry, when we feel the warmth of the morning sun on our faces,when we share a heartfelt embrace in times of pain or joy or taste the sweetness of freshly picked fruit or ,like one poster has noted, smell that incomparable aroma of a newborns' head, are we not using our five senses to commune with what God has wrought? Just some food for thought.
  25. Not only do I not believe it's a law, I simply don't believe it's true. TWI also taught SIT much was crucial to receiving revelation. I have cited on previous posts, incidents where I believe God spoke to people. In these examples, the parties involved either had limited experience with SIT or none at all. In fact, where does it state that the new birth is an absolute necessity? Consider this scenario:You share The Word regarding new birth with someone who is a natural man. They, of course, can't understand what you are talking about since (according to TWI) natural man can't understand anything of a spiritual nature. OOPS! I guess their fate has been sealed. Sure, I know that the scriptures say natural man can't understand spiritual matters but does that mean God can't find a way to talk to whomever He chooses?( slight digression, but Temple Lady pointed out to me that it is more a matter of our hearing than of God speaking.I believe she is correct) TWI was obsessed with laws alright but not the immutable variety that are beneficial to those who keep them.
