    Man, I can remember watching those roasts late night as a youngster and DON was THE man of the hour. His fast hitting jokes was by far the best, loved those roasts. One of the best ones was when they roasted Richard Pryor.

    Been listening to a lot of these guys lately:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phvKAm_v5og

    4:40 the chords sound strickingly like the in hiding intro.
    David Byrne, one cool and quiet guy. In '83 when Talking Heads came to Hampton and played with half of the Hampton Coliseum set up. Little did I know that was rounding out to be their last tour together and only the first or second show of that tour. Then he and I think it was his tour managers came to Denny's where I worked graveyard during school and sat in my section. His Order was simple house salad with wine. Later I told him I loved the show of which he didn't seem to believe me so I opened my uniform Superman style to reveal my sleeveless Speaking In Tongues yellow tour shirt. They got a kick out of that and that's when I asked if he could sign one of my order tickets. He gladly signed it and added my name without asking me and then left a nice nice tip. I easily made rent that month. :smile:

    Peace

    As it heats up here in S Florida what a beautiful day. My WWII patients wife birthday is today as she turns 81 he's 91. For the last month he appeared to be going down hill in getting weak in his legs, well today while waking him up then informing him it was his wife's birthday. He seemed to snap to attention by standing on his own, cracking jokes, signed a bday card I got for her and ate cake and edible arrangement fruit like it was going out of style. His wife said this was THE BEST GIFT Bob could've given her....with him being so strong today.

    He made my day, with his lively behavior today. Anyway, feeling good slipped in some old U2 from the War album on my way home. Then came across one of my top 10 U2 songs......

    It's a good day a real good day and only a week away from PJ's return to S. Florida.

    Beer me Please!!!! Just got done working a Chicago Public School teachers rally/protest who are evidently partnering up W/ those wonderful BLM buffoons. I couldn't get over how easy it was for the BLM element to torpedo this massive rally and turn it into a , "We Hate the Police Protest" w/ the support of many of the teachers. Ironically my Mother was a teacher that passed away 2 years ago to the day. It would have been quite the show if my Mom was there to witness teachers running down the middle of state street acting like lawless savages, banging on Cars, blocking Lake Shore Drive traffic for an hour infuriating people just trying to get home to their families on a Friday , and of course throwing shit a the Police. I tell ya, she would have literally schooled any of these educators of young minds….on the bright side, at least 6 people got locked up and if they work for CPS they will be Fired if felony charges are approved.

    Anyhow, 6 days till I am on a Beach in Fort Lauderdale and Miami, and rocking out to PJ at night… Give me another Beer Please…Cheers Mom

    The Train is a place to chill out, not rant. Maybe take this somewhere else on AMT. There's plenty of room out there.

    Perhaps you are right, I tend to get that way drinking beer. I guess I will go to the jukebox and throw in one of the best songs ever written by Gun N Roses to chill out. Here is One in a Million…..

    Musky, sorry about your mom. More than seven years since my dad passed and it continues to hit me in so many ways, guess it always will? (and if so, so be it), so I get how raw it can still feel at the two-year mark.

    There's something kind of comforting in combining grief and celebration of life.

    You got that right pal, just another Day in Chicago….

    I can't wait to get to some of that hot weather. It has been snowing off and on all day here today, had to cancel my Golf game which really pissed me off since i rarely have a Dayoff on a Sat. I was going to drink all day on the course and take all my buddies $…oh well

    Can't wait till the Tailgate in the beautiful FLA Sun…Alight, Alight, Alight

    Goddamn low talkers!

    I'm watching a doc on PBS called Animal Reunions but it's more about the bonds animals have with us, us with them. Gorillas, cheetah and her babies, elephants.

    Absolutely blowing me away and honestly, has brought me sweet tears and several blowings of the nose.
