I went in person to vote last Friday. I trust Illinois with a mail-in ballot like I trust gas station sushi.

no because the income at the Open Class level is pennies

Thank you, Chief.

SEMPER FI.

All I can say is "Commandants Own" & 29 Palms.

I was 14, the second youngest kid in the corps, and knew that at some point there was going to be an "initiation", but no one would give me any details, which only served to gradually heighten the anxiety. The head "Initiator" was a bass drummer who was about 20, built like an NFL linebacker. One day, after a Sunday rehearsal, someone said, "It's on", and I was led into his basement by a few other vets. There was a wooden chair in the center of the room, over which a naked light bulb swayed. I had seen enough WWII movies to anticipate some form of torture. Not a word was spoken, but it was obvious I was to sit in the chair. They all went behind a curtain, about 10 ft in front of me. I was sweating. I became conscious of a strangely familiar scratching sound then suddenly, the highest, loudest notes I had ever heard emanated from two speakers on either side of me. The next 2 minutes constituted an audio experience I had not imagined possible. Then, silence. The "Initiator" approached, leaned in close, smiled and said one word: "Maynard". I learned later it was "Ole!" from Ferguson's album, "Maynard '61", and swore I'd walk on hot coals for these guys if they would teach me how to play like that. Some initiation. Positively life-changing.

I was but it wasn’t mean. Just fun stuff.

We Californians are ordered to stay home except to go to an essential job or to shop for essential needs. So me and Stephan work from home and decided to go to the Love Shack by SPARC a Recreational Marijuana Dispensary for some much needed do well goodies, then stopped at the Jug Shop Liquor Store for wine and spirits. Once home we filled out our third mail-in ballot, enjoying some Chinese Hunan and Mandarin offerings from Kung Food carry out.

Yet if they don't send that email, folks will complain that the DCI office is not doing anything. They are literally in a lose/lose situation. Z

I loved BK's show from 2006. It was so dark - I think the best of their dark period. I miss dark BK. Can't find the full thing on video although Soundcloud.com has the audio.

Please don't hurt your neck on the account of DCP.

She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!
