The Ozark Mountain Daredevils – If You Want To Get To Heaven (Ya Gotta Raise A Little Hell).
What’s on your mind?
zed?
yup — ya got the zed dosido. how ya doing?
Oh, OK. I went downstairs to Spence’s place to see if I could airlift peeps outta the poppy fields…but I can’t tell if that’s where they’re hanging out at the moment.
i think some stayed on jane’s post and did not head over to spencer’s.
hey, what are the odds of getting the “refresh comments” button back?
talk about raisin’ hell! daring Lincoln to filibuster, bwahahaa! sheesh, I wish I had a thimble of Jane’s courage.
Evening Suz!
i know the tech crew has been working on fixing any glitches that come up after the major overhaul. not sure where that is on the list — but i know backstage folks really want it back also. we lost the more comments on our backstage pages when it went away :(
hey newton — how’s the bay area tonight?
Hey guys! Gots a kitty.
Evening, Suz and fellow lln denizens…! ;-)
I’d watch the Daredevils, but I’m listening to a really cool rendition of Rachmaninoff’s 2nd with Lang Lang, Valery Gergiev and the Maryinsky Orchestra. Pretty awesome.
ooooohhhhh gotta picture mary mcc?
Oh, that’s cool knowing the techies want it back. that means it will happen!
aloha ct — how’s the mt tonight?
hey et — i’m getting some of your cold air tonight. how ya doing?
MM, saw the pic earlier and am way jealous. I love kitties but hubby is superdeeduper allergic.
fingers and toes crossed is all i can do — besides, of course, wait :)
hi everybody, now we got a party going!
Just the one I showed the other night. Here it is again.
Cool and Clear with some 5-15 mph gusts… Not too shabby… Another gorgeous sunset, natch…! ;-)
ooooohhh what a forking cutie mary i musta missed it when ya posted it.
Hi newt. brrrr. I’m cold tonight. I got my blankie wrapped around me. Did you guys see the link to the WTF blanket earlier today? I think it was loohoo’s link. funny.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h05ZQ7WHw8Y
I sat here and watched Miss Jane on Rachel’s show tonight. That’s how the BA is tonight. Some appearance.
Remember Al Wynn.
Ooh… Pretty Kitty…! 8-)
Tucker is under our bed. It is really low so the doggies cannot investigate with abandon. Suki was really upset earlier because Tucker was under the daybed in her special little place. She fills it with socks and dog bones. Suki whined until we moved Tucker in the other room.
[formerly KellyCDenver]
SNOW HERE! ’bout an inch now, maybe 12-14 by Thersday night!
hehehehehe the d’s are gonna hate those 3 words
i watched the rerun at 8pm just to see her dare lincoln again.
It is chilly out here. Not snow cold though.
hey kelly — timberline lodge up on mt hood got 20″ — sun they had zero snow on the ground.
Hi Kelly! Denver snow is real snow. My california girl is in CT now and everyone asks her if she knows what snow is. LOL.
The woman has balls. Rather, that woman has ovaries and brains.
Mary McC – where’s that kitteh pic? And have you not a poem or other wild wordiness?
[Formerly KellyCDenver]
Nice to see you, CT.;)
Hey Newton, Suz, everyone.
hey margot — how’s ohio tonight?
What! Have you been born again?
Kittah Picture
clank clank clank!
Damnit, where’s that piano-playin fool?!?
hi margot
Did we talk about this before? I used to live in both The Dalles and Hood River; worked the whole time at the Hood River Inn. Left in ’92.
hey sunny — how ya doing?
you’ve mentioned that you were in oregon but not in that much detail. the other night starbuck and i were talking about timberline and hood.
My better half is having her third knee surgery in the morrow, I truly hope it’ll be the last one… Next time it’ll be a knee replacement…!
Hiya All,
I’m having problems staying here — but seems ok now. Kelly Canfield, welcome as you.
Here is a poem about my computer.
(I don’t know if I have posted it already.)
Volume
Volume spills from my fingertips.
Characters, spliced and renewed,
make new sounds heard only in the secrets of my mind.
With the conviction of the imprisoned
I build new words.
The sun moves east to west
across the diagonal of the roof and
half the day the sun is in my eyes.
It only seems to be a linear, electric dimension.
From the box, from the soup,
I can draw more sounds
and,
sometimes,
an occasional fish
oh double crap ct.. sending her warm postive fast healing thoughts dood
hey ce — what kinda problems?
Third time on the small knee? Yikes.
Yes!
I asked and was granted to be fully me here at FDL. In the commenting systems of kos, haloscan, disqus and now FDL I am all Kelly Canfield now.
Was important to me to get all unified and out. Might as well say what I mean in the person that I am.
Doesn’t work for everybody to shed anonymity, but it does for me. Keeps me real. Been a journey too.
*standing on chair clapping*
Thank you very much. (Elvis impression)
Oh, best wishes for MsCT. My knees are a bitch, too.
Thank you! What problems though?
Chris!
Suz, kind of rainy and chilly here, trees look beautiful though.
I’m great tonight. Been chatting up one of the sane members of my wing-nut branch.
Reported “everybody” was pissed at Saxby. Tough beans – tooo late.
black velvet
Everything seems fine now, but after I logged on, and seemed ready to read, I had the white screen (like three times in a row). Ok now — how are you?
Weee!
That’s teriff!
I don’t know if I’m happier with “soup”, “builds new words” or “occasional fish”
LOVE IT!
musta had a hiccup in your isp or something cause its been fine for me tonight. its chilly 42 outside and raining off and on.
All I have left are the heavy ones. Anyone want a heavy one?
Fixed, I think, Kelly.
i’m game mary mcc
Margot!
Most beautiful autumn ever. The colors have been so, so wonderful.
Sweet dreams, all.
ooooh that is sweet fatster
Big decision — good for you!
Oh wait. I found the poem I wrote to Ron when I asked him to move in with me.
An Invitation
No more can I wake alone in the pink cast of dawn,
I entreat you, Ronald Thomas Bednar, to take leave of your landlord
in San Rafaelias,
give no countenance to your deposit or
I will give force and wrent my own garments in despair.
Thirty days of note, thirty days of long wait, thirty days of notice to
the man who has taken your fortune in exchange for small spaces
and noisy illumination.
Come again to my house in the little burg of Sonoma to live until
fate smiles upon us and the plot is sold for copious amounts of gold
or the tax man forges his name on the deed to this quaint property.
Come to Sonoma where the figs are open and tasty,
the green quince wait to be picked and cooked into pies unspeakable.
Come to Sonoma where wanders from afar and townsfolk alike revel
at the town square (some say it is a rectangle)
and we have to offer
Della Santina, The Swiss Hotel and that wayward Cafe Lahaye.
Do not dally in Marin, that place of stuffy, new age concoctions but
come to my abode, come into my heart and home. Make me
no more a widow but a new, sweet blushing bride
Wow, great. Thanks for this!
*sigh* that is wonderful mary
You are a stunningly talented woman.
Ahh, you may hate this, but you are operatic!
Suffer this link: It’s beautiful, at least to listen to
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpxXlhTP8os
It’s upside down to your poem, but, woa! take a moment to listen
kelly where were ya sun nite? i featured liberace
oh my. Thank you. I should come here more often.
Beautiful, Mary, just beautiful!
Perfect call on the opera clip, Kelly. I love that entire scene…
Hi, Suz, Hi, Pups
FunnyWheelieDiva
Heh… Flattery will get ya everywhere, eh…? ;-)
Btw, nice works…!
hey funny — how’s seattle tonight?
I know nothing about opera, except that I LOVE it! We saw La Boheme in Vienna. Loved, loved it.
conscratchulations!
Lovely.mmmmmm..
Hey boy! How are you?
Some serious F*ckery going on in Afghanistan…
hey pun – how’s the east bay tonight?
NO! Really?
Had the viking neighbors over Sunday! Between them and me partner [Christopher/belch] there was no way I waz getting online.
I curse them for depriving me of Liberace thread! Damn them!
[brb - I'll check it out]
Gotta catch up comments, But This Is MY Fav Ozarks.
KPIG music all the way, huh Suz. *G*
hey Suz and mary, just passing through. real windy tonight.
Oh horrible, this I haven’t read about. We have to leave. Now.
hey larue — but of course :)
Heh, you crusty old fart…! What’s shaking…? ;-)
damp and chilly. finally caved and turned on some heat today.
Makes teh kitteh snuggly, though.
FWDiva
larue — that linkie is no good :(
tonight token walked outside, stopped, look at me as if to say you are outta your fucking mind its too cold out tere, and turned around and walked back inside.
I’ve noticed a trend the GOP thinks we are scared of them yes I know Self Delusion Projection. But how do we prove this?
Evening Very cool poem Mary.
Sounds like the Public Option is going to stay into the medical bill. I keep signing petitions and sending letters. Thanks to FDL for the great campaign.
hey things — how ya doing tonight?
hey bb — how’s the bay tonight?
Winter is coming! And I like hearing about Token.
Aloha, Pun Meister…! Long time…
Btw, I hope this didn’t affect ya…!
Well, duh, fur-people are often WAY more smart than skin peopl are.
Just saying.
Yeah, Jorma and Da Plane.
Good times.
Buster hasn’t gotten to that point quite yet.
Which means he’s got dirty paws when he comes back inside. Or, he pokes his nose out and then gives me a look…as though it’s my fault it’s raining.
Wouldn’t trade the little guy for anything, though.
How’s them toofers?
FWDiva
After all we Lefty bloggers and me specifically I know have said this about them for years. The GOP never responded before because they controlled everything so why bother to respond now? Why because they are weak?
We are still weak so how can we prove the GOP fears us beyond a mere he said she said thing?
yikes
bailey is handling the cold better than token.
toofers are better :) jaw opens all the way now and barely is sore
Aren’t ya glad ya left Cali…? ;-)
Mary, you gots words.
Good one’s.
Awesome.
*bowstoyourwows*
oh yeah (said in best ferris bueller voice)
I love that.
Doing Fine Suz Your Dog is right to cold!
Now then why do I think the GOP fears us? Perhaps because every Science goes against what they want to believe?
Besides mah booty? *G*
Ooh yeah I’m shakin’ in my footie jammies, here.
Pfft, not.
i’m still looking for a utube to laura love’s mahbootay
evening, firepups
hey ppd — how’s the south south bay tonight?
Hey there, you nut! Just to make clear, I’m formerly KellyCDenver in previous comments/posts.
Anybody here hear about how Mile’s Davis wife Betty, has re-released a 1970′s album?
Love her!
Ok, let’s try this. My Fav Ozarks.
And I NEVER knew it was them Doing THIS!
Go figger! Total pop.
good thanks — how’s everything up north, Suz?
Everyone on your late night threads appreciates music.
That’s some scary shit, when parts start to fall offa new build. Wow.
first is a classic and so is the second… surprised ya didn’t know that was them.
i picked this one simply cause it’s been a hell raising kinda day.
woops..that was to larue
Tucker finally came out from under the bed and Suki promptly chased back. Geez. Now Suki can’t figure out what she did wrong.
cooling off — snow in the mts and a bite to the night air i’ve not felt since spring.
Hate that song. Laura Love is fine at times, and then . . . *poof*, she’s gone to . . somewhere. Oh well, different folks and strokes . . .
They truly show no fear of us… Only one way will force the Repugs to realize that the Dems are really the party that holds all the reins…! Force Mitch McConnell, etal., to read from the DC Metro phonebook from the floor of the Senate…! Bring on those cots…! ;-)
bailey spent the first 30 days of token’s residency by staying up on top of things and only hitting the floor on that last leap before running out the front door. they eventually figured out their relationship.
You got a good cut, on the toobz. I was amazed to learn how far back they go, how many have gone thru the band, and that two have died, two founders.
hey there CT!
I dodged the bridge cable. quel mess! Some folks were trapped for four hours. Gonna be a horrible commute tomorrow, too. I don’t have to go into SF until Friday, so it should cleared up by then.
Bush had 8 years to change the economy his way he did Keynes is proved right he got us out of the Great Depression a Real World experience Chicago School Economics the Bush years proved wrong another Real World Experience.
Global Warming hey it is getting hotter as a kid I’m only 40 every year Christmas break my lake was frozen solid and we could skate across. In my 30′s big hole open water in the middle of the lake. That and the Canada Geese stopped going south for the winter they fished in open lakes they ate corn left over from the corn fields, corn fields uncovered by snow most of the time.
The army well Sun Tze would have a field day pointing out the mistakes Bush made but No country has ever benefited from a protracted war seems to sum it up.
The GOP wants its own desires their reasons change to meet those desires. We however are based in science they Fear us because we have Science on our side and they don’t even pretend too.
Can’t you take the ferry?
and there is always BART pun
I know I state the obvious but the GOP does need to be schooled.
They are asshole sore losers who don’t understand science so they don’t believe. Look at those dopes in the congress. These people actually make Bill Frist look awake.
Best of luck, Pun and all you Bay Area denizens….!
Fight or Flight is the reaction to Crisis I’m saying they fear a Crisis of belief but yes Force might be the only way to make them face it.
I’ll take a ferry to the highway
Then I’ll drive to a pontoon plane
I’ll take a plane to a taxi
And a taxi to a train
the bladder pressure musta got to token — he finally decided to brave the cold with that fur coat he noticed he was wearing
They don’t believe because they don’t want to because they desire they want things to stay the same, they want to go back to good old days that never were. Science depends on observation, experiments and logic.
The GOP want Yes Men.
Note for fashion-forward pups. Target is now stocking adult bunny suits. Pink onepiece jammies with attached bunny slippers.
oh geez — like the one’s ralphie had in a christmas story?
mary – quince-edentally, beautiful poem upstairs.
Don’t pay the ferryman…
lazy Louis welcomes the new fella
ferry cross the mersey
We need to govern effectively. They throw lots of roadblocks in the way. That’s where I’d like to attack them, in certain ways. Metaphorically speaking, of course.
One more, a heavy one. This is before Ron.
Definition of Handsome
Your physical self is bigger
than the lonely spirit you hide so well.
I see you in my dreams,
on the street,
sitting on the sidewalk in a chair
sunning yourself as you slip coffee
down your golden, nonstop throat,
in your big, blue, new truck
driving with your knees
as you fill the pipe of lost youth.
I see you everywhere,
floating down the steps of a friend’s house,
your wonderful shoulders leading the way
and that head of well tended hair
lending to you the definition of handsome.
I dream you pay for my smashed car
and know it means my heart.
It becomes mythical and complicated.
I start to layer you over my other life,
my other love.
The two of you merge
and I am in the biggest trouble ever.
I am forgetting your foot in my back,
your need to probe until the wound must be stitched
together by time and solitude
and your self hatred that bounces
off the hearts of women
and their children.
I dream of him and you;
one dead, the other never lived
and I know,
now,
that I can do anything alone.
Mountain, Ten Years After, Spirit.
Wailin. *G*
Can’t tell who’s who, but cat making like he’s playin a lap steel with git in a brace, is cookin!
Ok, Leslie on left, Alvin Lee blonde and sangin lead.
Gerry Marsden, and The Pacemakers. Wow. *G*
bad link again dood :(
That is how we prove them wrong. the next step. Right now I was trying to explain why they are afraid:)
orange tabbies are the best!
Unruly Late Night!
I love it when it’s all over the map!
me too (very big smile)
Fixed it. Geez . . . must be the biting cold here . . *G*
that’s a whole lotta shaking larue
I think when we are grounded in science we are not afraid. What reason do we have to fear when 8 years of Bush being wrong about everything has given us a great track record!
The pictures of the bay bridge are great. Most be really cold up there right now. Go CalTrans!
Lazy Louis is a great photo…
Reminds me greatly of a rabbit that was lounging in almost that same position years ago, munching on flowers. My mother said “Scat! Shoo!” And it lay there on its back with its legs crossed and chomped some more. We laughed.
Cwazy Wabbit.
And I’m still hearing Jorma and his git and Oh Good Shepard in my ears.
That was special.
there lies Peter Cottontail
munchin’ on the peas and kale…
Weeee!
If I could just concentrate a wee bit of attention to this dumb Chris De Burgh video, from WAY BACK in the ’90s, Just look and and watch and pay attention:
Don’t pay the ferry man until he get’s you to the other side
That’s um, Lieberman, ok? Get it, Sen. Dems??
ok, even the guys are horny now.
hey Larue
my grandfather once sold guitar(s?) to Jorma and Jack Cassidy, Hot Tuna years IIRC
Lieberman is f*cking Cerebus the three-headed dog, dude…
I’ve let you people off too easy, it’s time for some serious newgrass.
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wigjZ7ng_tc&feature=related“Duffey, Auldridge, Rosenthal, Eldridge, Grey.
Doing Herb Pederson’s classic, Wait A Minute.
St Mike On Reso, John Duffer lead and mando.
These guys were the schizz, baby.
tollbooth
Reid and Lieberman are like the frog and the scorpion. They are both going down.
There is a story there.
*blushing* I don’t know nuttin about Ralphie’s jammies.
Its a whopper.
larue some days it just don’t pay to get outta bed
Sure he is, I don’t disagree for a minute.
I also don’t believe in hell, and Lieberman can be dispatched in a NY, not Connecticut, minute. I think he’s that vulnerable.
Screw him.
We did warn both of the repeatedly.
I hope Hillary stays safe…
I’m sensing it might be something you need to tell or need to tell in person to someone and I think it might be deep the kind of deep water that scares swimmers.
bridge
It was a long time ago.
I gotta go night-night. But there’s a thing I think all Progressives should know, and be able to hum in their hearts; the end of Mahler’s 8th Symphony.
Forget the German, hear the English:
All that’s fleeting, is but an image
The inadequacy of Earth, here finds fulfillment
That which is ineffable, here, is done
The eternal feminine, points us upwards
Who are those babies?
nice. real nice.
g’nite kelly
We all got our stories without a tragedy or two we never appreciate what we really have.
Under the Bridge
*G*
under the boardwalk
Dang… What is going on in the land of the fruit, nuts, and flakes…?
Well… Kiss my grits…! ;-)
holy forking shit
Once I was eating at a restaurant in Sausalito called the Trident and Art Garfunkel walked in. It was 1975. I thought, “Do I know that guy?” “Did I go to school with that guy?” Then I realized who it was.
I saw that. What a dick weed.
Could this be a defining characteristic of the Lefty Bloggers a sense of loss a desire to make things better?
I have NO idea why!
Duffey, Auldridge, Rosenthal, Eldridge, Grey.
And to close it out, John Hartford, Hosting Mark O’Connor’s American Music Shop (the greatest music show ever), with the IBMA Winners of somewhere in the mid to late 90′s.
Rollin In My Sweet Baby’s Arms.
Dude sounds desperate.
yay — both worked :)
definitely payback to Tom Ammiano for his weak “You lie” and “kiss my gay ass” shouts a few weeks back
We used to hit The Trident from down the Peninsula in San Mateo in the mid 70′s by ferry (drive to The City) to do brunch and ramos fizzes!
Sometimes a group of us would ride out cycle’s up there for same, then off to wine country.
Man, I loved that place!
One of the nephews is pushing me into indies. So this is Annie Clark. Dig that Zappa vibe.

hey emerson — how was your weekend?
*rollseyes*
lol
Ron worked at a bar right close to there but I didn’t know him for another twenty five years.
How much longer do ya’ll have to suffer the fool…? ;-)
must be gremlins in your tubes, larue
Too long. He has had so much work done his face looks like it is about to slide off and roll down his chest.
Best midnight. Think I need to go to bed. Good night ya’ll.
g’nite mary mcc
The very first time me and mine went to Berry Fest in ’01, we met a guy and his wife I’d been chattin with on their Website board.
Wasn’t till the end of the fest, I learnt he’d lived on Skyline Boulevard in the mid 70′s, and worked as a bartender at Bella Vista while I was waiting tables and cooking a few miles from there at Uncle John’s Cabin.
Bella Vista was where a few of us would hit after work, before going home down in San Mateo.
I drank at his bar.
I hear ya about them thangs.
*scratches head*
Grrreat! Perfect afternoon at Truchon Winery. Great dinner in Napa and then played til 3 am. Lounged Sunday and home that nite. Going to see Naomi Klein tomorrow night at Sonoma State. My younger sister was a professor there for years.
How was yours, Suz?

Spread some aloha to HoJo…! ;-)
i had a boyfriend in the late 90′s who started working at a company i had worked for — he started the same month i quit and we didn’t meet until 25 years later.

Sounds like you’re making great progress. How much more to go?
My wife’s doc set her up already with vico for tomorrow’s surgery… I’ll be a busy beaver catering to her every whim…! 8-) Not like I don’t anyways…! ;-)

stock up on ice packs. i always used 2 — one one top and one behind the knee
Emerson, that sounds wonderful. So glad Suz remembered to ask.
Whoa-you had alot of posts tonight. Jane really got people going tonight, huh? Saw the Rachel clip.
a busy thread — always a good thing. jane really got folks fired up with that appearance and smack down of lincoln.
Ooh, that reminds me now…! I had planned on picking up a few gel packs…! Looks like I’ll be a tad late getting to sleep in the morn after I get back home…
A Satisfied Mind
Hi Sunny! How are you? Any word on the car?
a bag or two of frozen peas works well also ct.
gram had such a great voice…

What I offer,again, is nothing,but the night,the nocturne (nottorno)
Nice, and great pix! My pal Richie named his son Gram after Parsons.
thanks kelly — i’ve got that favorited yanno :)
We’ve done what we can do in this Internet world; acknowledge each other.
I really wish it could be more, Suz. But it is, what it is.
the community support here at the lake has gotten me through some forking rough times kelly. we gotta take care of each other so that we can all continue to fight back tomorrow.
You’re doing great, girl! Think of the results. Guys paragliding into Oregon, coming by boat, swimming…
(laughing) and taking one look and jumping right back in the water to beat a hasty retreat
Not bloody likely!
OMG-check out Craig Ferguson’s opening!!
Wow…! This is some unprecedented sh*t…
Afghanistan is swirling down the drain and we need to get out as quickly as feasible…! A year, maybe two… Tops…! That’s a resignation letter from a FSO serving in Afghanistan…!
I’m great! Going with the flow.
Car is still in limbo, but mine is running.
Concur, agree, the Lake Support is really quite something!
When a commmunity wishes you well, how crazy is this, you get more well than you would have if you WERE’NT wished well!

Nice at the lake tonight, think I’ll swim home.
*splash*
Nite, Suz.
Dam, I knew it!!! Mermaids always go for the mechanics…
Aloha, Suz!
I thought the two songs with the same opening line (“If you want to get to heaven . . “) made a nice pair of musical bookends. You do nice work, ya know? Thnx.
