So true... it's a shame he's gone.  Even Stuart misses him, and announced 
he'd seen him in NY last autumn.  Waiting by the rink in Central Park with 
his skates, no doubt.  He was probably arrested for staring a little too 
closely at schoolgirls passing in their uniforms.  JD, not Stuart.  I think.  
We thought that might have been JD talking to Evan Dando up in the balcony at 
the Supper Club show, but he disappeared when Evan was thrown out into the 
street so we didn't get a chance to say hello and ask him to come back to the 
list.  He might have gone off with that kid from ET.

>I'm sure I'm forgetting someone. Oh well, no matter.

You did neglect Samuel Pepys.  He was an epic poster for awhile, remember? 
... although it was kind of boring to have to sift through ALL the details of 
his daily life sometimes,  especially when he'd forget to translate that 
awful shorthand of his.  I admit to keeping a strong finger on the delete key 
when I'd open one of his sometimes. God, it was like a diary or something.  
The gossipy bits were always pretty amusing tho' and his account of the 
Stuart Restoration was right on-topic.  Wasn't it him that always bid us 
goodnight in such a sweet, twee fashion?

Trying to shoot down Jefferson Dirigible, eh?  You wanna step out back?  Ah 
Tim, "feed your head."  You know, speaking of reggae (or what passes for it) 
I saw the Marley family at the last Woodstock revival thingie last year... 
they opened for Ten Years After.   Alvin Lee looked like he'd taken to drink 
-- and suddenly "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" seemed so.... dirty.  They 
also supported whats-her-name, the gypsy one from Fleetwood Mac.  Ava Gabor?  
no, that's not it....
