December ’95 Haiku Finalists
Here are the ten finalists of the December ’95 haiku contest. I put the names into a hat and drew three winners, who are highlighted in blue. Winners, send me your mailing address and I’ll get these out in time for the holiday. Thanks to all twenty-five people who entered a haiku! (I wanted to publish em all but thought it might be overkill!) Happy Holidays!

nice work poets. I would have voted for Wozniak

Oh ya, I just remembered. My dad had heart surgery 2 day’s before this show. He had 5 bypasses done. It was a trying experience at the time. That is why this show was so much more to me then it was in general. Sure it was just another Phish show, but tripping with that on my mind and Phish playing out of their mind I had no choice as yet to lose it. As weird as it sounds, it was losing it in a good way this night. As it normally was until it wasn’t, but that’s another story all together. Just like each and every other night that I thought I had gone too far yet to come back, I came back. Weird thing to remember for sure however. I vividly remember sitting there just steering at the lights and band and thinking to myself. Well you all have been there. You know the thought. Weird for sure. Love this show now however. This DWD is jamming.

I vote for Vape. Awesome job. Congrats to the winners.
Repost from bottom of last post..
The Drug War is a travesty. No argument from me. Camden still a shithole.
So A&E pulled a guy off Duck Dynasty for being a redneck… Isn’t that the show’s premise?
Papa Phil has been placed on indefinite hiatus for anti gay remarks.

I don’t get that shows appeal. Every single word is scripted and it’s not remotely interesting. Merica, I guess.
Wingsuit Chamonix Chute Remix Edit (feat. Low Altitude Driveby)
Morning All
Some birdies chirpin’ around these parts lately. Seems like the the band may have gotten some work done right after AC…but I think thats been it. Everyone is off doing their own solo projects right now. Can’t imagine there will be much time for practice if any.
Hope this run doesn’t arrive via USPS. If so hopefully Priority and not 1st Class.
Morning BBers…
…‘Free’ used to get weird
^ Best line of the bunch…

nice new sync of vid of 12.30.99 Mike’s to the LB05 sbd
that should be a good time @heady. can’t recall how long you are in the area, but if you find yourself in philly another night and want to grab a pint, let me know. calpain.brew at gheemahl
Merica indeed Bingos.
A&E (the Armaments and Explosives channel) is intolerant of intolerance?
I do hope that everyone in America quits watching the show, and they take it off the air.
Surely there is room for another “Real Housewives of …” out there.
(I know that is Bravo, but … A&E needs to step up their game. Too many of their shows have fat people in Cowboy hats. Or women in bikini tops riding horses)
what do you have against women in bikinis riding horses, MiA?
this here’s a free country, sir, and I’ll get pham b to stockpile all of the unregistered guns he can to defend a lady’s right to be televised while riding a horse sporting nothing but a bikini top if she so chooses, dang it!
Nice assortment of full length concert vids… rocking Femi Kuti at Central Park Summerstage now:

^^^hahaha! Rodeo Girls is going to go huge. A&E’s next blockbuster series.
What is this show with bikini clad women riding horses program you speak of. IMNTK thanks.
