[Mb-hair] Useful stuff maybe ... or simply musings...

[Michael Butler]

Same here, Dagmar,

Sun is out and I am listening to 3 hours of Beatles. We have a college
station nearby which every Sunday give us such a feast. Even Ringo singing a
song of John Lennon.

I miss the Hair theatrical discussions when Randy and others were holding
forth and really responding to questions and points brought up by various
friends. For instance Richard recently suggested to Katie to hit the
colleges. No one had mentioned that earlier

But friends are where it is at and I enjoy reading the personal messages of
those I have not seen as often as I like. It is so nice for the List to be
used as a bulletin board. I must say that long winded personal exchanges are
better privately off list.

It is nice to read Tioga Joe's ruminations about veterans. I hope I am not
offending when I bring political items to the List. I know if you are into
current affairs Civic List is the best. Frequently something is so important
I feel I should post it to Hair, the most political of musicals in this day
of moribund media.

Finally with all the spam we all have to tolerate, I can put up within the
hundred or so emails I receive daily some extraneous messages to cheer my
day.

Peace and Love,
Michael
