I might have mentioned this before, so ignore me if I have, but...it wasn't until I was much older that I fully appreciated the subtle humor of 'The All Jug Band.' By then, Hee Haw was off the air. I wonder if it's on reruns anywhere...

Hey, at leastr Dolf got the Volks Wagon right but it probably wasn't the "KarmaGhia". Too Italian and I don't think he was getting along with El Duce at the time.

Thinking about it Bill, you did't borrow the roundback idea from poor ol' Dr. Porsche did ya?

Always liked the Porsche/VW shapes and such. Hard to get a cord of wood in them though!

I just got home and I can't believe what you guys have done to this! Who was that in Conn. Was her name Lisa?? Don't hear much from her lately. I'll bet she's had it with us all! I do like the Karmachanic thing though. John <>{

Karma is not what happens to you, it is the accumulatiom of past sins that will determine your chances of achieving Nirvana.

Al, for example, is due to find Nirvana in 20,173AD if the world still exists.

I, however, in fear of hampering my ascension, would never joke about such a serious subject.

I meditate as I play my Karmandolin and seriously consider whether banjo players are a form of life that must be preserved as one must avoid the death of a housefly. My answer appeared in a promotion for a CD club where "Nirvana" could be bought for sheer pennies if the seeker agreed to purchase 20 other CDs. I immediately subscribed and went out and eliminated 7 lousy banjo players and 2 slightly better Dobro annoyances.

There is nothing better than knowing that you have insured your entry into the great oneness by a simple transaction.

Al will never learn!

There is an old (that goes without saying, eh?) Yiddish saying:

Der mensch trakht un Gott lahkht

Man plans (thinks), and G-d laughs.

This is demonstrably true. To whit: Everytime I think I'm going to play my Ovation quite well, G-d laughs and I don't succeed. Perhaps I should learn something from this...

I kinda like these stream-of-consciousness threads. If it has spiralled out of control, blame it on Al for bringing up that "karma" word.

When my G-A-S and my ADHD catch up to the OFC it can be dangeraous. Take a bite from the "Karmal Apple" that Al tosses in and it's all she wrote.

I ask you, how can younot respond to a bad pun in the making?

I repeat one more time

You can achieve Nirvana with a simple purchase

How you achieve anything better, ask your mama

Bailey-

My mama said to stop hanging out here and I would achieve something better than Nirvana. I wonder what she meant.
