Hippie Fest 2009

Big FUN at Hippie Fest 2009 at "The Fred" in Peachtree City. Sure I could have paid to see Sir Paul McCartney from a distance, but I chose to see "The Turtles" up close and personal. Security removed me moments after this photo was snapped. That's Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman. Also at Hippie Fest: Brewer & Shipley ... Joey Molland of Badfinger ... Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels ... and Chuck Negron of Three Dog Night.

My lovely wife Janet pulled out her old bell-bottom jeans for the occasion.

Happy 21st Mere!

Our youngest daughter turned 21 on Friday and we took her to the "Temptations" concert at Chastain where she had herself an adult beverage. Whooo-hooo!

Rain Rain

Rain, Rain, what a pain …
On the weekend, quite insane …
Come back Monday when I’m down …
Don’t matter then if I drown …
The sun is what we want to see …
Make it so, let it be …
Then again, the drought is gone …
Cost me nothing for my lawn …
Rain, Rain, do your thing …
I am happy for what you bring.

Obama's Health Plan?

Little known proposals in the Obama Health Plan ...

(Thanks to Bill for finding this. I think.)

Brady (our Welsh Corgi) is out of surgery at the Vets office. Clean teeth, and the fatty tumor has been removed. He's doing great. Will pick him up later. I've already scheduled to have the fatty tumor around my waist removed. Not looking forward to recovery in the metal cage though. On the plus side, I guess it will get me ready for the new Obama health plan.

Tank you berry much ...

Spent most of the day on the phone with various Dell reps who seemed just as interested in extending the warranty as fixing my daughter's computer. Finally, went to Costco and bought a different brand computer. Stopped on the way home for some Lamb Curry. Don't know why I was craving that?

The Spinners

Saturday night at "The Fred" in Peachtree City.

Gordon Waller of Peter and Gordon died July 16 in Connecticut. This announcement is on the Peter and Gordon MySpace page:

"We are deeply saddened to report that some time after 8:00 p.m. last night east coast time, Gordon Waller went into cardiac arrest and was taken to the emergency room. Despite intensive efforts on his behalf by hospital personnel, Gordon passed away early this morning. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers."

"Peter & Gordon" appeared May 9th in McDonough as part of the "Sounds of the 60's ... British Invasion" concert. Click here for the True Oldies slide show of that concert.

The other Cyrus

Billy Ray stopped by the station Wednesday and sang a few songs in the conference room. Really nice guy.
