Special Announcement from Will Dockery:

http://www.reverbnation.com/willdockery

Actually, let me give a special thanks to *all* my friends who joined
me onstage at Hogbottom & made the show such a winner, since it was an
ensemble effect & not just any one person that made it all work in the
end, as we know...

Christy Cabaron-Fowler for capturing the audacious & iconic images we
are left with, Patricia Suddeth (tamborine & vocals), Don White
(guitar), Basil Fitzpatrick (guitar), Henry Foster Conley (who stepped
in at the last minute on guitar), Sandy Madaris (vocals), Derundo
Jenkins (drums) & Doug Conley (bass), John Phillips (accordian &
sailor pipe), Geno Woolfolk (flute & keys) & Dana Dodd (tomborine &
vocals) each one of you contributed something crucial to the poetics &
sound of *whatever* I call the fellow travellers & comrades who join
me at various moments in the Zeitgeist.

Thank you *all*, & Live Long & Prosper, my Friends.

news:a4ca4aeb-df90-4457...@e15g2000vbt.googlegroups.com...Where
all did you post this "thank you", Will? How many of those
people will read your "thank you" in the places where you post it?
That may be difficult to determine exactly, so let's limit it to here.
How many of the people you mean to thank will actually read and feel
sufficiently thanked for their efforts in your behalf? Why does this
look and feel more like a promotion, like you're thanking yourself
here for all of the wonderful work you do, as well as thanking
yourself for all the wonderful friends you have. Again, this thank you
looks like all your others. It's all about thanking YOU, not anybody
else. It makes you look even more desperate than you already are.

LOL.

"... marijuana use is associated with addiction,
respiratory disease, and cognitive impairment."


Then why are cigarettes still legal? And why
are Ann, Rush and Bill not wearing muzzles?

Maybe the Prez gotta little drain bramaged himself
when he smoked "dope" back in the day. It didn't
stop him from getting erected, but it dumbed
him down just enough so that he can't
think strait.

And for Heaven's,
Please do "contact" the White House!
