Good Morning Oh Kee Pa (Part 1)

Non-Phish General
#2001

^Please be careful on your bike. A really good friend just got banged up pretty badly during a long ride in the Arizon hillside.

Tough Monday morning here in NJ. But we had very nice weekend. Lots of family love; got to take my grandson to his soccer game on Saturday morning, where I watched him bring the ball down methodically past a couple of defenders and score against the lone goalie. His team lost the game but I couldn’t believe how good he’s gotten under his father’s training.

Sat down on Friday night with our oldest granddaughter who’s messing up in school, and her mother, the one who’s dating the guy we all can’t stand. Their relationship is in distress, and Livy’s schoolwork is just one of the symptoms of a messed-up home life. So I had to get down to a brutally honest level with them both, and made a commitment to both of them if they were willing to work at correcting their behaviors, that Marie and I would help to make sure they’re communicating with one another better.

And yesterday was a beautiful day in NJ and in the afternoon Marie and I picked up some lunch and brought it to the state park where our eldest daughter was married ten years ago to the weekend. We walked through the woods together, saw a family of deer cross our path several yards ahead, and generally has a soul-recharging time walkiing among the Autumn leaves.

Just have to get through this week because from the 31st until the 12th, we’ll be on vacation. Not really going anywhere, just hanging out to winterize the back yard, see David Byrne, visit my brother in NY, and play in the city with an old friend.

Hope everyone has a good day here on the OKP.

Morning everyone.

I really don’t like Mondays.

And where is the f-ing sun?!?!?

I don’t know what I hate more, the fact that it is pitch black on the way to work right now, or that in less than a week, the sun will be setting around 5:30, which begins what I think is the most depressing 4 months of the year.

oh well.

have a breezey sleazey one

Gmorning dudes. I slept most of the weekend. That never happens to me, and I wasn’t feeling sick or nothin. Who knows.

Friday I played a high energy gig, and everyone was all happy. > Sleep > Sunday afternoon I had the best disc golfing trip in a long while … pizza … did some painting. Today is sunny and not too bad for a Monday so far.

Good morning all ye dudes, may it be a grand day in your brains.

You bet, I am a safe rider, never ride under any influence or anything… It was a bout 55 degrees so the wife and I hit some scenic areas around the area and enjoyed the last ride of the year, I think!

Hope the OKP is well and all is good this morning!!!

Morning all. Cold and rainy in NJ today and I love it. Wish I could stay home and snuggle in and just play video games, watch old movies and listen to some tunes. But somewhere along the way, somebody told me I was a grownup and grownups don’t do that. They go to work. Drats!

The only reason to be pissed at the rain is that it prevented the Phillies from putting the Rays away last night. They stopped the game in the 6th at 2-2, and they have to finish it today sometime. Hope it doesn’t break their momentum, something that has always been key in any playoff game.

Have a great day my friends, and let’s not forget that it’s almost time for the Great Pumpkin, Charley Brown.

Actually, that reminds me that I’m meeting a long time Phish friend for lunch tomorrow at a restaurant called Charley Brown’s. Heather took Marie and I under her wing when we first started going to shows, and helped Marie relax with some of the things that she was most apprehensive about. Heather is the person that runs the 4th of July Kazoo band in Ocean Grove, and she just typifies what’s best about your basic Phish fan.

^I hear ya Bill!! I wanted to just stay in bed this morning. Cold, windy, rainy here in the D.

Good Morning, I am ready for this election to be over. I think we have a clear winner and I am so sick of hearing about this in all forms of media!!

Anyway, it’s been an interesting run of politics, but enough.

Morning OKP! Happy to have this site to hang at. At which to hang, rather.

I’m all hopped up on 3/13/92 again. I listened to it pretty attentively on Sunday to and from the disc golf course, and hot dang on a griddle. It’s good to have camaraderie at the OKP today.

May your minds enjoy these next several hours as wondrous time well spent, o ye merry men and women! o ye! mofos! yeah!!

Easy day today. At my home office this morning, lunch with an old Phish friend, and an afternoon meeting that I’m in control of.

Weather is chilly but nice today, and as I pulled into the parking lot just before sunrise, a buck with an incredible rack was just finishing up feeding on the shrubs on the side of the building. He moved out of the way as I approached, but at his own sweet time. Definitely in charge of the situation. A magnificent animal, and a great way to start the day.

#2015

Good day for me so far! So good day to you!

Coffee, one o’ them fruit & nut granola bars, workload’s somewhat reasonable. The house was a happy one this morning. Office is mellow. Weather looks confused.

#2016

Had a really good day yesterday mostly because of lunch. I love talking with people who love Phish about Phish.

Only today and half a day tomorrow to go before being off for ten days. I can do this with one hand tied behind my back.

Have a great day y’all.

Morning all.

Busy day today, but mostly for fun. Clean up my desk this morning and turn my ‘Out of Office Assistant’ on to discourage excessive emails for the next ten days. Leave here at noon to stop at the home office to get my standin up to speed in case of emergencies while I’m gone. A haircut next. A stop at the grocery store and then home by two.

Making chile and fresh chicken soup for dinner tonight, with fresh biscuits and corn muffins for the family who will be coming by around seven after they trick or treat in their own neighborhoods. I’m making one dish meals so they can chow down quickly and intermittently as they go back out into our neighborhood for goodies at night.

So, I’ll be home in time for the local trick or treaters, and I usually like to put on some sort of disguise, but two years ago I scared my own grandkids to tears and Marie won’t let me do that anymore. And after I found this great hood that made you appear as if you had no face at all. Well, anyway I’ll be blasting the scary music from a CD I bought last year.

So boo careful out there tonight, and have a great Halloween.
