  1. UT QB stopped by his own man. (Blocker on the other side had something to do with it, but still…)
  2. I spent my NYE with a bottle of bourbon, a fine cigar, and the Grateful Dead Movie. It had been a while since I watched it. Man, it still holds up. Start-to-finish it’s a masterpiece. As you may know, I’m a Bob Weir fan. That he has a hot daughter is just a nice distraction. She seems pretty cool and well balanced and apparently has a seat on the bus. She’s posted other pics from school and on vacation. And from being on tour. Check out her dad in this one. Bobby rules. And so does Monet. Apparently one of her efforts on tour is giving miracles, and about this one she wrote: β€œFeaturing the moment of the very last Miracle given out for the @deadandcompany Final Tour, to a very nice man named Photon.” Anyway, and please excuse my lengthy preamble before finally getting to the point of my post, I was reminded last night of a moment you might have missed in the GD movie. It’s where they’re setting up the stage and the Wall of Sound and planning/tuning. You get some spacey tune-up licks from Jerry, some Phil messing with his amps, then Bobby, then Betty Cantor-Jackson (of Betty-boards fame) nursing her baby during the interview, and then the unforgettable moment of Phil (who appears to me to be high as hell but what do I know?) improvising with the camera feedback. That part with Phil is the anchor. That’s the memorable takeaway. But did you notice the part where Bobby was playing Sage & Spirit and how he was picking it with both his pick and his middle finger? For reference, from 1975’s Blues for Allah: So much of what Bobby does can go unnoticed if you’re not paying attention. Another example that I’ve been meaning to mention but haven’t gotten around to it is this from Providence 6/28/74 (keeping with the β€˜74 motif). Did you ever notice Bobby playing the theme of Heaven Help the Fool near the end of a very fine Spanish Jam? Again for reference (if you don’t own this album, you should): Heaven Help the Fool is such a great song. It’s a shame the Dead only played it as an instrumental. I mean, I get it, they’re not Dead-ish lyrics, but it’s an awesome song. I’m sure I’ve posted this before but, again, just for reference.
  3. Happy New Year from Monet Weir. She posted a bunch of photos reflecting on the past year. Here are a few that stood out.
  4. β€œOkay, tell them to bring some.”
  5. No. It’s gay when a guy has sex with another guy. That’s it.
  6. This is essentially true. https://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/trump-monthly-jobs-numbers-sean-spicer-235936
  7. Send that terrorist cunt to Gitmo.
  8. OMFG I can’t take any more of Beth Mowins. I’m out. Jesus, she’s awful.
  9. I’ll bet she’ll change her tune after she visits the Magic Kingdom. You can get her a puppy later.
  10. Use that opportunity to strike up a conversation. β€œHey, pal, where ya goin’ in such a hurry?”
  11. And Giuliani still insists he has proof and got sued again.
  12. This can’t be stated often enough.
  13. Oregon was two of them, both a lot bigger than beating Utah.
  14. Do you really think your guys can’t push the QB over the line from a yard out? I see vastly overmatched teams succeed at doing that all the time and these two teams look fairly evenly matched. I don’t get it.
  15. Nice stop. I say go for it. Fucking sneak, man! Wtf?!?!
