Hurricane Wilma Backlash

Y'all should try this, it's so good. Our local Publix was out of all meat but turkey, so for the birthday supper we had turkey-in-the-bag.
After you've tasted the turkey, you can sample the backlash going on locally about early Wilma-whining.

My best present? A Duane Allman Anthology CD that my nephew downloaded, and my mother-in-law CD-Stomped with "Happy Birthday" and "Sky Dog Lives On!"

He sure does. We especially remember Duane on this day, the 34th anniversary of his death:

UPDATE
I see Boudicca's already summed up the whine-fest nicely.

I think you know by now that I love and admire Duane Allman. And continue to mourn his passing and probably always will. But what I like to do is remember his birthday, as I do that of a few others I so miss in my present lifetime (Gram Parsons, November 5, for instance, also my parents', my best friend since gone, a few others).

Something about the birthday for us all...it's really a big thank you to God for making such beautiful people. You included, you know, Donnah. ~;-D

Hahaha, I had to read this part of Boudicca's whine twice:

"I fed the kids breakfast and told them the freezer and refer were not to be opened until dinner."

The 'refer'? The REFER? Oh, THAT refer. ha...

Oh, excuse...I meant, "Boudicca's comments about the whine-fest," not "Boudicca's whine," sorry.

I share in her irritation, all of it. Just glad today that everyone's (hopefully) now alright, no more hurricanes this week. Everyone, be well, enjoy what remains of this day...listening to "In Memory of Elizabeth Reid" as I write this. Wail on, FREE BIRD.

donnah, you rule. thanks for the link. i almost feel like a net-citizen. i'd have left it up longer if i knew.

friday at rehearsal with the local twits, i steered all the jams to allman-esque riffs and played my heart out for the young man that drove that train for himself and all of us.
