    Right now I am listening to Manhattan Center, NYC 5-APR-71.  At the
    beginning part there is a humorous part - Bobby says "Ok everybody
    might try moving back ya know cause then people up here wont' get
    crushed and secondly you people up in the sound room have got to put
    more bottom on these monitors or I am going to kill."  Then Pigpen says
    - "The baby faced killer".
    
    -Jerry

One of my friends tried that on Neil Young.  He lives about 10 miles from
me in La Honda.  Anyways, they delivered a pizza and some beers over, and
a woman opened the door, took the beers and left the pizza 8-).

    Man I wuz definitely dancin' in the driver's seat this morning.  I
    put a 50W power amp in my car last night, and so I had to road test it
    this morning on the way in.  Played Sampson and Delilah from MSG last
    year and watched the rear view mirror vibrate to the bass line, and no
    distortion from the speakers !!!
    
    And you wouldn't BELIEVE what Drumz sounds like ... ;^) ;^)

Shawn

    me too :-)

    The RECORDS notes has something similar, except they use just the first
    lines of the songs. But it would be fun to be able to use lyrics from
    anywhere in the song.
    
    Would this be for anyone's songs or just the Dead? It would be more of
    a challenge not knowing if some line was by M.C. Hammer or Theresa
    Brewer.
    
    Similarly, since the jeopardy topic is dead, I propose to open it to
    other topics. Still staying with music-related, but not necessarily
    Dead-related. We're full of enough trivia to keep it going forever.

	Standing on The Moon   
	(Hunter,Garcia)

	Standing on the moon, I got no cobweb on my shoe
	Standing on the moon, I'm feeling so alone and blue
	I see the Gulf of Mexico as tiny as a tear
	the coast of California must be somewhere over here, over here.

	Standing on the Moon, I see the battle rage below,
	Standing on the moon, I see the soldiers come and go
	There's a metal flag beside me someone planted long ago
	Old Glory standing stiffly, crimson, white and indigo, indigo

	Standing on the moon, there's a shadow on the sun
	Standing on the moon, the stars go fading one by one
	I hear the cry of victory, another of defeat
	A scrap of age old lullaby down some forgotten street.

	Standing on the moon, where talk is cheap and vision true
	Standing on the moon, but I would rather be with you
	Somewhere in San Franciso on a back porch in July,
	Just looking up at heaven at this crescent in the sky, in the sky.

	I see all of Southeast Asia, I can see El Salvador	
	I hear the cry of victory, and the other songs of war.
	Its like a mighty melody that rings down from the sky
	Standing here upon the moon I watch it all roll by, all roll by, all roll by

	Standing on the moon, with nothing left to do
	A lovely view of heaven but I'd rather be with you
	A lovely view of heaven but I'd rather be with you, be with you, be with you...

    Don'tcha just love it when ya get a tape and find something really good
    and totally unexpected on it.  Well, this morning I heard JGB doin' a
    super version of Mystery Train, from 11-23-77 (Waterbury CT).  It came
    as philler on a tape I've had for a few weeks and finally got around to
    listening to.  Some o' the best damn Jerry I have EVER heard ... ;^) 
    I'd be intensely interested in gettin' ahold of the rest of the show!
    
    ... Bobbb (who's ears are still a-ringin')
    

    re .-1
    
    yeah!!!! Mystery Train!!!!
    
    One of my all-time favorite songs. THe only version I  have is the one
    from the Keystone record from about '73. I second the notion of
    getting that tape!

    "just say 'no' to 'mystery train'!"  :^) :^) :^)
    
    
    i was listening to BOS this morning on the way in and got a chuckle
    when the DJ said,"every so often you have one of those days when
    someone call in and says they want to hear some Grateful Dead...
    
    	then another one calls in for the Grateful Dead...
    
    		and ANOTHER one calls in...
    
    			and ANOTHER ONE calls in!
    
    				and it feels like the Grateful Dead psychic
    network is going full speed that morning!!!  so when we come back from
    these commercials, we'll play the most requested dead song of the
    morning..."
    
    after the commercials he announced that "the most requested song by the
    Dead this morning is on this album...." 
    
    		and they played Touch of Grey...  but by then i was at work
    so i couldn't listen to the whole thing....  made me smile though!
    
    the Grateful Dead Psychic Network (tm)....  :^) :^) :^)
    
    funny how i just happened to be thinking "i wish the radio would play
    some Dead for me today...  but then again, it would probably be Casey
    or Truckin'..."
    
    					da ve

    It's a sad state of affairs when the most requested Dead song
    is Touch of Grey. :-/

The DJ's LIE :) They say that "it's the most req'd song" but they really
mean to say "this is the one that fits our programming style".

I believe this...
bob

    On the other hand guys, it IS the most commercially popular tune they
    ever did, and there ARE a lot of people who like that tune who ain't
    Deadheads (and who listen to pop music radio).
    
    Besides, can ya imagine WZLX or some other pop station playin'
    something like H/S/F or Terrapin ???  Nahhhhh ... me neither ...
    
    ... Bobbb
    

    ToG is a great pop song.  I did once hear WAAF (heavy metal station
    targeted at pubescent boys) play "Dark Star" from "Live Dead" once. 
    During the lunch hour, too.  I couldn't believe my ears.
    
    I heard John Wesley Harding on WBCN last night - hey, he's got
    something!  Anyone who wrote a song about his friend doing coke while
    watching Live Aid (one section parodied the tune, something like "We own
    the world/We're selfish bastards"), is OK by me.
    
    Jamie

BOS does play more Jerry songs than any other radio station.  I've heard
Sugaree, the Wheel, bird song, etc every now and then.

ZLX, well, they'll either play Truckin, KC Jones or Uncle John's Band.  That
station is the top 40 station of older music.. same crap, everyday.

re: dead on WBOS

Funny you should mention that.  Last week on the way to work I heard Alabama
Getaway on WBOS!  That surprised me.  I don't hear that song on the radio as
much as I used to.

adam

Oh yeah, and another thing.  A few days ago on WHJY (Providence, RI station), I
heard a parody of the RI banking fiasco to the tune of US Blues!  They had some
cover band play a faithful rendition of the song, with different words.  I
think they called it the Rhode Island State Blues.

I don't remember the words but it was pretty funny.

(For those of you who don't know, the Governor of RI had to shut down all the
credit unions in RI for some reason.  This pissed off a lot of depositors who
had their money frozen.  I'm not sure what the present situation is).

adam

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that most folks can relate
to that "I will survive" theme first thing in the morning to get them
through the day 8-) (and for some people, through life 8-/)

peace,
t!ng

    I CAN'T TAKE IT!  I gave up on the mundane pop radio stations that play
    the same ole poop day after day, like ZLX, BCN, etc.  Can't take it no
    mo!  I've been listening to WICN, 90.5 public radio station in Wooster
    on the way to work every morning. They have a show called "A Tasteful
    Blend" every morning.  It's jazz and I like it. You also get NPR news,
    which can be quite informative.  And the most important thing: I
    haven't heard the same song twice and I've been listening for about 3
    weeks now!  They have a dj that's usually on Monday, maybe even Tuesday
    mornings that's really spaced out.  He sounds like one of those beat-nik
    jazz types.  :^) 
    
    Gosh, sometimes I feel like I wanna give up on the rock scene, well,
    not really give up, just give it a damn good break.  There's more to
    life than dead music and rock, and once realizing that fact (which I do
    occasionally but not for this extended period of time) it makes me feel
    good.  I don't know, guess you gotta be there.  Anybody ever feel this
    way?

>    There's more to

    I recently found a rather offbeat station that uses the call
    letters WFNX out of Beantown. They play some rilly weird stuff
    most of the time. I now have my alarm clock tuned to this sta
    which has taken getting used to due to the usually softer tunes
    they play resulting in me wanting to listen for longer periods.
    I just wish it would come in a bit clearer :^)
    
    peace,Andy

re:  dave irons

sThis file has seen a similar discussion before.  I say stations like
ZLX stagnate the mind.  Why would you ever need to change the dial or
the type of music you play when you can just put it on good ole 100.7
and listen to the same songs by the same artists over and over....
If I hear PINBALL WIZARD one more time why I'm gonna ... :) :) :)

Yeah Andy,  now your gettin' there :) FNX is out of Lynn (close enough)
and they shake it up.  

For more alternatives -

Listen to WBRU out of Providence if you are lucky enough to get it,
	  WMDK out of NH - they can mix the old with the new in a way that 
	       doesn't make you feel like you've just heard that same show 
	       yesterday.
	  WERS out of Boston - they play a variety and have a reggae show on 
	       on workday eves from 5 to 7 or so.  

including those -  there are alot more on the left end of the dial but 
I can't remember em all.

re: Dave Clark - 

You got a new node huh! 
:)

    RE WFNX ...
    
    I kinda figured they must be somewhere up in the North Shore or along
    the coast, 'cause I can pick 'em up better on the boat stereo than on
    my car stereo.  They play some nice jazz on Sunday AM ... last year we
    used to tune them in on the way out to the starting area (off the coast
    of Marblehead) ... 
    
    ... Bob
    

>re: Dave Clark - 
>
>You got a new node huh! 

Yeah :^) ... couldn't believe the name wasn't taken ....

    
    for another morning alternative try WCUW 91.3 out of worcester...
    
    the signal isn't as strong as WICN (i agree dave, "a tasteful blend"
    is a cool morning show) so sometimes it's harder to get...
    
    WCUW's moring show is "the alternative alarm clock"...  if you are
    looking for something really off-beat to open your eyes in the a.m.
    check it out...  EVERYTHING is fair game-folk to jazz to rock to punk
    to god-knows-what...
    
    and 'CUW is also the home of Andy's Grateful Radio show...  tune it in
    and support community radio!!!

	I hear ya and have done the same thing!   I only listen to the
	lower left hand part of the dial now (if I [have to] listen to radio),
	and WICN is one of the stations along with WCUW when I can get it
	and WGBH.  Jazz and classical and news, plus surprises on WCUW.
	
	There's a DJ on WICN on I think monday or tues mornings whose voice
	I _immediately_ recognized.  He works at a place who is putting new
	heads into one of my home decks and volunteers as a DJ at ICN.
	He was impressed when I called the audio place about my deck and
	asked him if he was a dj ;-)  Maybe he'll play that '55/'56 Miles Davis
	w/ Coltrane tape I dubbed for him.  If you hear it lemme know ;-)

When you can determine the name of a song within the first few seconds, you
know you've been listening to your commercial radio station too long.  I
pretty much do not listen;  when I do, it's brief, typically when I'm just
about home or fumbling for a tape.  Sometimes, when I have no tapes and
get to the snapping point w/ the radio, I just listen to the rattles and hum
from my beater, er, car.

One thing that really gets me pissed.  Where I work out, they have a radio
they play for everyone.  The people that work there are young, like, in
high school.  Every time I'm there, it is on WAAF -- the station for teeny
boppers (at least that is the majority of their listener base).  They play
some heavy shit music on that station that just gives me a headache.  
Sometimes I'll ask if they would change it, and sometimes I get crap back
from Joe Teeny Bopper, then I just ask who is the customer...

Just say no to BS commercial radio.  It's like the TV:  BrainWashing!

    name of the song before the band even finishes tuning up ???

    in the morning ... they always play just what I want to hear ... ;^)

That is a different story.  GD is a hobby for me :-).  The amount of music
available to radio stations vs. the amount they play is such a small
percentage.  This is the thing I have a problem with.  How many different
songs have the Boyz released on various albums of the years?  And, how
many different ones do you hear on the radio?  Small percentage.
    
>    Anyway, as someone once said in GRATEFUL_OLD, I just tune in to WTAPE

that was me who said that.  i love WTAPE !

    I might listen to music radio about 2% of the time (92.1 in
    peterborough) and the rest of the time talk radio or WTAPE..and I spend 
    3hrs per day in the car....the only thing I've been trying to do is
    not play my DEAD tapes because I get concerened over the effect a car 
    deck will have on them soooo lots of time I make tapes of tapes or 
    such.....can't stand most music radio cept sometimes late at night
    on a long drive you can find a good jazz station
    
    rich

I mostly listen to talk radio when not listening to WTAPE.  But even talk
radio is starting to pi$$ me off.  I ventured into FM a few days ago and
got out real quick..lately if I want to listen to music and I don't have 
any tapes with me I'll listen to WOKQ (country music).

	Well,.. if being able to determine the song within the first few notes
	played is a sign of having listened to a lot of tapes,...

		THEN

	Being able to name a song before they finish tuning up must be a sign
	of having been to lots of shows....

    WBRU in Providence is a good station. I live in RI so I can get it
    good.  It's Brown University's station, or supported by Brown, or
    whatever.  Anyway, Brown students are the dj's.  Back in the late 70's,
    during the disco daze, they played all the "underground" (at the time)
    rock that turned the disco fire to ashes.  It was a very low power
    station back then; it was hard to get on the other side of Providence!
    They played stuff like the Talking Heads, etc.  We owe a lot to
    stations like this for killing the disco daze!  All the ole time
    rockers, looking for a breath of fresh air, would tune this station in.
    
    I listen to the station at times; most of the time when I need to look
    for a new band to entertain myself.  I discovered The Smith's there,
    which turned into my second favorite group!  I discovered U2 there,
    REM, Smithereens way before these groups were close to popularity.
    Currently, I don't listen to the station anymore, not because the
    station sucks, probably because I don't like the new music that's
    coming out recently, recently meaning this year only.

      2.  Does anybody who's got this wanna talk trade ???
    
    All I've got is the philler that includes the above two songs.  If the
    rest of the show is as good as that, I gotta have it ...
    
    								... Bobbb
    

    
    All Deadbase II says is *with horns  :-)
    
    Maybe III or IV has more info but I don't have it here.
    
    

    
    Deadbase IV lists it aas *with Martin Fiero and Joe Ellis on horns.
    Sounds sweet....
    
    Happy Cheese-

I wondered if it was TOP m'self, but I dunno.

	I think the Tower of Power horn section played quite a bit
	with the dead during '73, especially on WRS.  Whether Martin
	Fiero, etc are part of TOP I don't know.  Do great quality
	tapes of these WRS shows exist ?   I for 1 would love to get
	some!   Hmm Martin Fiero, I think he played Sax/flute with Legion
	of Mary in '74...

Listened to 7-2-88 Oxford on the way to work today...had a fun time listening
to that again.






Jim

    
    
    Hey! I listened to that (7-2-88) yesterday! Neato!
    
    Steve-O
    

    Sittin' here in my office with 3 decks runnin' ... listening to Friday
    night's show (set 2).  My boss came in just as they were breakin' from
    Space to Watchtower ... I handed him the headphones and watched him
    smile ... ;^)
    
    ... Bob
    

	Bob, how do the tapes sound???

    They sound very nice.  The first couple of minutes of "Shakedown" on
    9-22 is a little screwed up (saturation, and one channel cuts out for a
    couple of minutes), and there's a bit of saturation on "Sugar Mags",
    but other than that they're "A" quality tapes.
    
    Listened to set 1, 9-22 on the way in.  I envy those of you who were at
    that show ... sounds like a real keeper ... ;^)
    
    ... Bob
    

THE best version of Dancin that I have ever heard (5-19-77 ... Fox Theatre,
Atlanta) then again I have only heard a handful but this one was still HOT.

It took me all the way in, plus a couple of minutes in the parking lot,
dancin in my seat.  :-)

Yesterday I listened to a Peter Rowan tape that I recieved in trade from 
Sean Oconnor from the tape tree, thanks Sean!

	There is a version of "Land Of The Navajo" on there that must be 
>25 minutes!  Grate tunes....


Kevin

>THE best version of Dancin that I have ever heard (5-19-77 ... Fox Theatre,

	Pfeh.  O Ye of too few Early Dancin's..

	Lisa, seriously. Try a -Good- *loud* listen to the Dancin' from the
Harpur College show (5-2-70). :-) There are many even better ones, I've only
just begun to collect 'em.  :-) 

	Actually, I think I've gone off about Dancin's before in here (I think).
Basically, I've always considered the tune to be the "indicator tune" of how
the Dead's sound has metamorphized over the years; listen to a 1970 Dancin, a
1973 Dancin, a 1977 Dancin, a 1983 Dancin, and a recent Dancin' and you can
really hear the changes in the band. Yeah, the Fox Theatre tape was an awesome 
show, but MAN! Can you say DISCO????    Pfeh.   :-)

Fog_who_ranks_Dancin'_as_one_of_his_top_five_favorite_dead_cover's,_even_in_the_
"Disco_Donna"_years.

Oh right Fog, we talked about this last week ... thanks for the reminder.
I'll give the Harpur College Dancin a good listenen when I get home.

I've got a disco dancin' from x-x-76 (Warshington DC) which is one of my 
favorites (poor sound quality tape, but it has a special significance).

RE:  DANCIN'

yeah, and listen to one from Cape Cod (10-27-79) for a good one too!
We used to have a note for fave versions and I always put that in ...
actually it's the whole dancin'>franklin's thing that gets me.

    >>yeah, and listen to one from Cape Cod (10-27-79) for a good one too!
    
    Gee, what a coincidence ... I just got this tape in the mail yesterday

So Bobbbb,

what did you think - providing of course that I had the date right ...

?
the other one    

Definitely the best Dancin's came from the very early 70s.  Nice, long, acidic
jammin'....

ahh...

    I've been listening to my latest tape aquisition - Knot Live - on the
    way in the last few mornings!  I was sick the last time Slipknot 
    played at the Whitehorse so Mark got the tape for me - came in 
    one morning and it was sitting on my chair!  Nice way to start
    the day.
    
    Yesterday, my daughter asked me who was "playing the great tunes" - 
    5 years old and she already has good taste in music :^) (Her
    current favorite song is Scarlet Begonia's - she likes the line
    "The sky was yellow and the sun was blue".
    
    Anyway, thanks again for the grate tape Mark!  This morning was one
    of those rare mornings when I was wishing my commute were longer
    rather than shorter!  Definitely wasn't driving in the "Fast Lane".

 I had a similar experience listening to Cassidy from 5-6-81





 Jum also psyched for SIS

    Well, I had an experience listening to all my car's rattles, creaks n
    groans this morning.  Something's wrong with my power amp, and so I
    hadda listen to road noises instead of my favorite station (WTAPE).

	Well, as ya'll may know, I dumped my Z28 (RIP) a while back and I'm
now the proud owner of an '86 Mustang GT.  It is dark green and in really
nice shape.  Deb and I took it camping this weekend and it worked out great
(while delivering and average 25 mpg).  this car really moves gracefully
in the mountains and on the higways...

	The stereo (stock) in this car is crappy though.  I have to dump it
an get something else.  Only problem is:  $$$$.  I just spent a load of $$
on getting the car and registering it ($300+ paid at the registry!)

	Anyone have the low-end Sony CD player in their car?  It is a hi-power
unit (10 W/CH) with an input for an external source (walkman).  Since I have
loads of CDs, this would be great... and, w/ the walkman input, I could listen
to tapes also......  any other suggestions that would fit the bill (CD and
tape in the same box)?

funny you mention this.... being a chevy person since i've had my license
(4 chevies), i was a bit hesitant to go w/ ford.  i went w/ it, and so far,
i'm happy.... the 86 GT is a nice car, but not quite as luxurious as the

anything else - i did change the plugs and oil, both easy tasks....

    Re: working on Fords
    
    	My experience so far has not shown my Ford to be any more difficult
    to work on than my GMs. It sucks, ya' buy new and don't expect to do
    work, but 100Kmi later it's not new any more. You got an engine,
    transmission and rear wheel drive right? Bolts still turn, same ratchet
    different socket. As a matter of fact, some times MY Ford is even
    easier to work on 'cause it's a truck and I don't have to jack it up 
    unless I'm taking a wheel off.
    
    	That remindes me, I should do my front wheel bearings soon.
    
    Good luck mon 
    Happy drivin'

    Oh yah, and since you don't have an auto, if you have to do anything
    that wants the radiator out of the way, you don't have to mess with
    those damn trasmission cooling lines!!! :-)

    Ford F-series trucks, circa 1970-80 were all easier to work on than the

re: Slash's Camaro

I dunno know there slashmon.  the GTs move out pretty good, and with that

many points did ya get for that doosey of a ticket you got heading to my
pad in concord that night????  for the first time, i'm actually below 15
points and i'm now enjoying an insurance credit!  i wonder how long this
will last???

re: workin' on cars

i may, at first, claim that chevies are easy to work on because i'm familiar
with them.... i definitely could do a clutch job on a chevy w/o the service
manual but i wouldn't attempt the job on a ford w/o one.  i'm going to
order the serv. manual - $35 ... an investment that is paid off the first
time you really use the manual to solve a problem.

Easy:  rev to 4000, dump the clutch, put it to the wood, and let the
positraction rearend with 60s for meat do the rest....  :-)

of course, w/ your juice-drive, you could simulate that by p[utting it in
neutral, revving the engine to 4-5k, and smacking the sucker into drive
(ouch!!!).... i had a friend that used to do this for fun with his '77
monte....

neutral drops:

Actually, that guy never once replaced the tranny until his car had over

auto tranny to the engine flywheel were in rough shape from all of those
neutral drops.

     You may remember hearing me whine about the whine my truck has been
making. I haven't fixed it yet, but I've acquired the necessary supplement 
to enable that repair and activity without disabling the rest of my life. 
I'm so far very pleased with my new driver's seat bolted firmly into the 
body of an '86 VW Scirocco. It still needs some stuff to make it complete,
but with the fuel consumption conservatively 50% better than a generous 
approximation of what the truck would get, the car might just pay for itself. 
     I need a sticker or two, I want the skeleton imitation of Maxell's 
poster, with the roses flying out of the speaker. The car is black and I 
think that sticker would be perfect for it. It needs a better stereo, one of 
which I own, but before I install that I need the speakers to make it sound 
good. Antenna could be used too, but what I really need is better access to 
my tapes. And I really want to install a cruise (anti-ticket) control as
it can easily get away from me, it'll hop quicker from from 70 to 80 in 
5th gear than my truck would/will. 
     Mechanically it's pretty sound and doesn't make too many of them. I 
didn't like a whirr I was hearing on Friday and clearly identified it as 
a wheel bearing. Replaced the rear wheel bearings on Saturday morning and
it is very quiet now. While I did the wheel bearings I found a bad wheel 
cylinder. Made a call to the parts store, hopped in my truck and drove up to
pick it up (this is a great reason to have a spare car). I also have to admit
to having a bad/weak syncro on 3rd gear, but the transmission is smooth and 
quiet beyond that, nothing like that Mitsubishi trash they put in Ford 
trucks. So, I double clutch 3rd gear and cure the symptom. When the truck 
is finished and I feel like a transmission expert maybe I'll think about 
rebuilding this tranny. 
     It's a neat little sports car! It's very tight and attached to the road.
I don't know that the speedometer is giving me correct MPH, but according 
to Adam's car (hey that's almost a pun) 70-75 really is 70-75. That morning 
my neighbor told me that 60-65 had been 55-60 on her speed gauge. So yesterday,
going home, I decided to press it a little from 495 N to Rte.20 west I drove
that ramp at 50, neat car! 
     I like to believe that I will not loose my cool in this as it just 
simply does not have the visibility that I do from my truck. I'm afraid
I can't be seen because my visibility is so reduced. I'm stretched out with 
my head about 3' off the ground, from my truck I was easily 5 to 5.5 feet 
off the ground. There is something to be said for being able to see what's 
happening a half mile up the road. But so far I really like my VW! I still
really like my truck, am happy that I no longer have to burn it out, but if
I'm going to drive something economical and it can be fun too, why not. 
     I also have to adjust to not being able to carry anything I want at 
any time. It won't fit my skis (or take my ski rack), my dinghy oars will 
be a trick, mountain bike I don't think so. But it's cool, I got a truck.


     Happy with my new driver's seat, and thrilled with the gas mileage!

This morning I listened to last year's Saturday Boston show ... second set

specifically Eyes of the World into the drums where Bruce wouldn't get off
stage.  Remember that Boston folk?  Wow!!  What an awesome memory ... what 
a great time.  I'm smiling all over, just like I was at the Garden last Sept.

    Yep,  I remember!  For me, that was one of the highlights!!
    
    I love that hot piano against those groovin' drums!!!

	my car's odometer turned over 100,000 miles on Saturday!
	I've put about 60,000 miles on it since October 1994.

	I never did give it a name yet - all my other cars have been
	20-25 years old - with so much character that they seemed like 
	they needed names right away.  This one, I just could never decide
	on one.

	I got this reliable and safe car when I was commuting 100 miles
	a day up&down Rt. 3 - happened to actually buy it during the
	'94 Boston run.

	That particular run, Bobby was playing a new guitar? that had
	this -very- distinctive sound to it - absolutely no problem
	picking him out of the mix.  This may have been the run where
	he started playing his acoustic every show too?  Both guitars
	were silver or grey-colored.  My car is silver/grey.  I was trying
	to find a name to connect the two, but couldn't come up with 
	anything.

	This past weekend, Gans' Grateful Dead Hour featured a second
	set from an '82 show and Bobby's guitarwork is right out there.
	Excellent.  In particular, after Eyes and before drumz, he stays
	around and jams with Mickey and Bill.  Very nice sample of his
	distinctive style.  I started visualizing the guitarwork - you
	can hear how he plays - a kinda long swoop down across the strings
	and then a quick turn back up - and it reminded me of the Nike symbol 
	;-)...
	so I'm thinking maybe I'll name my car Nikie - seems like a car name
	to me!  whattayathink?

Nikki conjures up all sorts of images to me.

how bout "swoosh"
:)

Nova is *still* hanging in there with nearly 138k ... mind you, 138k
"JC" miles is probably equal to about 200k of a normal person's miles!
the car just won't die... had a couple close brushes (head gastket last
winter, this winter was suspension and some misc engine probs), but
it still runs.... and, i upgraded the stereo last year so now it isn't
so bad to drive.  cheap too: excise tax, 21.50 /yr and insurance is $330
or so per year. 

appropriate note for me: I am now (well, not at this moment, I'm at my 
workstation but you know what I mean) doing the note title again.
