Now that you mention it, Kendall, I have been sick as a dog since 3am this morning. And Janie is home sick with sad stomach ills.

I have unfortunate and considerable knowledge about food poisoning, and just assumed that it was the horrible Taco Bell food we had on the way home. Based on when I got sick, I'd say that if it came from Ramblewood it wasn't food poisoning, but could well have been a virus we passed among us.

CHANGE OF SUBJECT

Re the FSGW and Mudcat: I don't think I've ever had as much fun singing as I did Saturday and Sunday nights in the dining hall. I would surely not like to see footage, as I'm sure I was carried away by pure joy (not whiskey ;) and, like Amos, could not vouch for my personal comportment. But the best part was observing people come and join in NOT AT ALL based on who was there, where they came from, but just based on what the hell was being sung, or shouted, or strummed. Both nights were wonderful melanges of anything that could be called 'folk' by any dictionary, sung by the best 'folk' I've ever kept company with.

Anyone who says otherwise was at a different Getaway than I was.
