Thanks Dan- that's what I thought. I respect your knowledge of baseball.

Glad to see you are uninformed in all aspects of baseball, not just the use of performance enhancing drugs. That's not a nice thing to say. Regarding Pedro Martinez- he is definitely one of the dominant pitchers in his era. I'm very interested in how he does this year since he's lost some off his fastball- I think he will do well based on his experience.

I hope I'm reading you wrong- but the best that I have seen is Seaver. That's my judgement. No one can answer the best of all time. A more appropriate question is who do you believe is the best in your lifetime.

Dan- I'm not a Clemens fan, believe me....at least 4 years I thought he was taking something.....after throwing that bat at Piazza that sealed it for me for not liking him. I know people in the game- primarily in the minors- and believe me- Clemens and others are the tip of the iceberg.....and frankly- if I was in Triple A and needed a little something to get to the majors- I'd probably take something to get me to the next level. Here are 2 names I was surprised not to hear with steroids and HGH: Javy Lopez- his last year with Atlanta coming back from injury before signing with the Orioles, and Bret Boone- from an all-star to out of baseball in 2 years. But just my opinion......

The one I emulated when I was a kid was Tom Seaver- I subscribed to the theory that power is in the legs- so I built my legs up to add speed and reduce the stress on my arm. The only pitcher I would pay money to watch pitch a game is Greg Maddux- because he's a thinking pitcher and he gets batters out not with speed but with location and movement. To me- he is the best I have seen.

I gave up caring about this a few weeks ago.

It's cloudy here and started snowing a little while ago...

I recently discovered this site- I'm having a blast going through it- listening to concerts that I wish I could see in the 70s and 80s......I listened to Thin Lizzy from the Tower Theatre in Philly and I recognized some songs were on the "Live and Dangerous" LP. The Chicago concerts are great- and the Genesis shows are awesome! The big question: is there a way to save them on my computer and have them recorded on CD?? (Was that out loud??) Other than those I can download, of course.....I'd love to play them in my car for my long drives into work. drives.

I found the thread- I messed up my search parameters: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...31276&st=90 No need to rehash old info........

LCD or Plasma?? I watch lots of sports- and I'd like to avoid the blurring I get watching basketball fast breaks on the 19 inch LCD I bought a year ago. The max size I can fit is 42 inches. Also- I have Directv and the local channels aren't HD- they will be later this year (I hope) so I'm stuck watching conventional on the new TV. What do you have??

My wife and I are attempting to simplify our lives- more into appreciating what we have versus what we don't have. The only time we've been overseas was to Ireland in 2000. Traveling there and speaking to the people made us realize how we can control the speed of our lives and not let it control us. We've been trying to do that ever since then. We're working on it....

My wife finished watching an episode on 60 minutes about Denmark and came away quite impressed.....and she said- let's move there....or at least visit!!

Okay, but let's not let the jocks off scot free. The whole issue doesn't take root without their greed. Agreed......a very good point I overlooked.

Crocuses are up and some daffodils are ready to bloom. My honeybees were bringing in pollen last week when it was in the 70s.

My vote is #4: They both will be charged with perjury! I listened on XM while driving long distances for my job and I couldn't tell what Congressmen and women were talking- but Burton was terrible......Imagine, ruining the reputation of the greatest living pitcher!.......that was a disgrace. Baseball is like the Mafia- you take a vow of Omerta......no snitching......or you're a RAT. I blame Bud Selig, and the players union for this mess.

Just looked up this box set on Ebay- I'm shocked at the prices! I got mine from yourmusic.com.........the set's been riding in my car beneath the seat for a few weeks....gotta go find it!

I have it- called Portraits. It came with an outer cover box and a booklet with Dan commenting on all the songs, plus discography and a biography. I enjoy his music.

Mine shipped today!

I want to develop a website for a group where I can choose templates, add pictures and text, add pages that can be linked, and other general things. I don't know html and I'd like it to be easy to create and update on a regular basis. What would you recommend? I probably going to host it with ICDSoft but I'm open to other hosting companies. Thanks for reading this and commenting! Mike

I'm excited about it! I enjoy the '77 Dead and I don't own any shows other than the Dick's Picks. I haven't downloaded anything- I just entered the realm of DSL since it became available a month ago. Here's something weird: I entered the Garcia website- they're still advertising 15% off Holiday sale, plus advertising the Pure Jerry Vol 7 (Hampton, VA) but the 15% discount doesn't apply in your checkout and I can't find Vol 7 anywhere on the site to purchase it.

Well that's weird....I went to buy RT Vol 2 and it gave me a USPS option (6-12 days) for 2.20. I chose that option and ordered it. Perhaps people complained.

Welcome to the thread! Start from page 1- you'll be at it awhile- fascinating reading though! I'm learning alot!

That's nutso. I thought $12 to Oz was bad, but $10 to Virginia? I think once you log in and go to the checkout you get the different shipping options. I only paid 4.60. I hear its has "THE Sugaree" on it. I think what's going on is the closer you are to Rhino (in CA) the cheaper the shipping. It's UPS? Lon- what was your shipping cost? You're about halfway between CA and Virginia. I'm going to put a few fake addresses to see if the shipping changes depending on where you are. The current Garcia shop (and former GD shop) is in Crozet, VA about an hours drive for me- and shipping for items is the same as if it was going to CA.

Went to pre-order Road Trios Vol 2.....cheapest shipping was 9.99......I'm going to rethink the pre-ordering.

Great game. Possibly the best game I've ever seen. I'm an Eagles fan but I'm glad for the Giants and their fans. I'll always root for the NFC in the Super Bowl. But it also would've been nice to see an undefeated season- which is pretty remarkable in this day and age. Such parity in the NFL! Anyway- good for the Giants- they deserved it.
