Date: Sun, 25 Sep 2005 17:35:41 -0400 I hate to wear socks! That's why I have not worn them all summer (less laundry to do also). ; ) My feet have never felt better. Socks make my feet sweat! Then the athletes foot sets in. Is it the shoe that makes your foot sweat or is it the sock? Sure the sock is supposed to absorbed the sweat, but isn't that putting your feet in a dank setting? Thus making your feet into prunes? I think I have nice feet. So I have been told. Just for example, white cotton socks with sneakers, is that a sweat factory waiting to happen? Isn't cotton a natural fabric? I love a good sock and a good sneaker but together, watch out. Maybe I gotta stay away from sneakers? I'm not a sweaty person, but the constraints of a shoe on my feet does not seem to healthy? Man I love summer. Hell, if I lived in California or Hawaii, I'd never have to wear socks year round. Maybe one day. booie.......... ps. I love my Teva's : ) My feet feet thank me every day. I have a different pair of Teva's to wear every day for a week.

As I handed them the j, "thanks, duuuuuuude," they managed to scream in between bites of 'schoom. And then there was silence. Utter and complete silence. Geraldine saved the day. And night.

Gotta agree ... was a night of good music. High points for me: Mickey and Billy are a great rhythm section when they sync up, and it was most excellent to see them go at it together once again. David Nelson--a class act if there ever was one. Low points: Melvin Seals and his tribute band from hell. Trey Anastasio and the Ratdog drummer (I think), slaughtering "Eyes of the World"--get a metronome or something, guys. (First time I have seen Anastasio ... strikes me as having great chops and zero ideas). This was the summer concert that I had been missing.

Date: 25 Sep 2005 18:37:09 -0700 I think McCain has very little chance in the Republican primaries. He's pretty widely viewed as a loose cannon and not a team player, and in the Republican party being a team player is a big deal. A lot of Republicans just wouldn't think a McCain win would be worth the effort and they'd be right because McCain would have a very moderate bipartisan cabinet. The Right believes at this point that they have a lock on the hearts and minds of America and they are not the kind who change their minds or accept compromise very well. After Bush's second term they're not going to be hungry for the white house, while the left will be famished and much more willing to solidify behind someone like Richardson. If Richardson ran againt McCain it would be a tough race that McCain would eventually win, IMHO; but if McCain got the nomination it would only be over the dead bodies of most of the party's ideological elite. ------------------------------ Subject: RIP Craig Potter From: Sherry Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2005 01:38:23 GMT A friend of mine died Thursday night.
