LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.

[DUCKMARX]

Ok - I just talked with Cafe Press, which is the same company that Concept2 partners with for its products. I will be glad to email you the photo that I used to make the design. And btw, this weekend Cafe Press has a special using the Prez1 promo code that pretty much pays for shipping costs.

I changed the layout to fit the dimension restrictions at Cafe Press:

Thanks, AJ. Nice work there!

Is it just my screen, or is the boat with AJ and Karyn on board, the only one where everyone is rowing in synch!? ...

My hometown It's been nearly 20-years since I lived in Tucson and yet I can close my eyes and be right back in that blindingly gorgeous desert. SIGH...

Ok Ron, write the lyrics. I do not know if you should use K2 or Jan in the lyrics.

... To the tune of the Allmann Brothers' "Ramblin Man"

I'm on my way to Tucson in the morning,
Leaving out of Denver, don't you see.
They're always having a good time out in the desert, Lord
And Gila Monsters think the world of me.

Lord I was born a rowin' man, yeah
Trying to keep on Erging and doin' the best I can.

When it's time for leaving,
I hope you understand,
That I was born a rowin' man.

I think that your "Ramblin Jan" sounds better, to music ...

Da Do Ron Ron

Some of y'all might actually remember this little dity from 1979; I do not. Because I was two years old

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n-APb0XcCI

No one wants to go down to Tucson in the summer
So this time the boss chose me
I've been sort of restless yes he thought it might help if
I got away from my wife and family

There's been no other woman since the mother of my children
And in each and every way she's a lady
Now there's one that I'll remember a sultry night we spent together
And she satisfied the love inside of me

(Chorus)
Go on and send me down to Tucson and I'll get the job done
And call up the one whose love is free
She may be easy and I love my lady
But the lady don't satisfy the love inside of me

I know my lady's not to blame cause they raised her prime and proper
While another takes her pleasures where she can
The one in Tucson she don't hide it and when she gets excited
She makes you feel your every inch a man

But if I could have a wish that I knew would be granted
Don't you know that one wish would be
Just to lay beside my lady and she'd be the kind of lady
To satisfy the love inside of me

Go on and send me down to Tucson and I'll get the job done
And call up the one whose love is free
She may be easy and I love my lady
But the lady don't satisfy the love inside of me

Go on and send me down to Tucson and I'll get the job done
Go on and send me down to Tucson and I'll get the job done

Nothing quite like a twangy little ballad about adultery to start you off on the right foot

Best,
Eric

I am almost speechless at the way this team can surprise! I will have to print this series of commentary out and save it. I totally did not expect this train of thoughts when I finally connected up to the wireless network here in Tucson. And Boog - can say that I'd not heard that ballad before. I am definitely a Nomad...it's what happens when you grow up as an Army brat. I am in Tucson for the week to help my 82 year old Mom while she gets cataract surgery. She still lives independently, as long as I come take care of some of the chore list every couple of months. I tell her to stay independent for as long as she can...

Thanks for the fun songs - and apologies for the delay in postings. Sometimes you just have to do what you can do and not worry about the rest of it.

Don't know about looking for any gila monsters - I'd say that I'm on the lookout for roadrunners....beep beep..

LOL, for me personally, Mel Tillis and Send me down to Tucson is not nearly quite as memorable as Glen Campbell's 1968 hit Wichita Lineman, if but for it's "jazz flute-esque" instrumental between each verse

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qoymGCDYzU
Performed live on The Smothers Brothers Show

And just to fly in the face of the notion that I'm a total hayseed living in the deep south, I am also a huge fan of jazz and... Heavy metal

Best,
Eric
