			This is a wonderful image. He keeps changing color! I love the YinYang or the Ferd or whatever it is that he is pointing to, cool! "Cam-ooooo!" (As in Camus?) The backgrounds to DB are getting better and better! I just read some "Camooo" ("Absurde Man") - you got it doooowwnn! A neat essay I thought, actually.
			Oh I thought being called a deadhead was very funny!!!! I certainly know enough of them and Ed is turning into a kinda deadhead - he likes the music at any rate. Living in San Francisco for so long just gets me giggling and being a deadhead!! I tend to think of Morticia Addams clipping the blooms off of her roses and then throwing the blooms away when I am working in the garden!!!! (HOW did she walk in that dress??)
			Yep, no matter which choice you end up making it is overwhelming. That's why I enjoyed "Absurde Man" - he makes it clear that the choice ain't fun! "Being or Existence" - what's overwhelming about that one is that "Being" means so many different things, pathways, roads, whatever, ("He has work to do") and Existence doesn't mean much. There are so many ways of "Being"!!!! That's what makes people interesting!
			Yah, the Dead can put me to sleep. But I like their early stuff too and (as deadhead fans around the world shudder as one) I really liked "I Will Get By" ("I Will Survive") - the angst of the tail-end of the BabyBoom child/adult! You know I love the Airplane, I like **energy** in my tunes.
			Oh, and sunflowers are a natural in this state, they grow everywhere as volunteers, along the roads, etc. None of mine were "planted", they all come up by themselves from the bird feeders. I have never had so many sunflowers before moving here! This state is one of the biggest producers of sunflowers bird seeds and seed for sunflower oil!
			You nailed it re the soldiers, tom . . . I totally agree
		fotocomolegusta	psycodelic!
		MIKEDONAHUE	what in the heck are you smoking Tom :)
		tanddjohnson	Hello Tom. DuckBoy is moving right along. I hope you have a great weekend. I think it might rain here. I hope.
			LOL at Las Vegas Ducks!!! :D That should be Asian Bird Flu, silly, West Nile affects horses and people! (ick) Tell DB to LOOK OUT!
		candyruth	..and the wind cries DuckBoy...go, DB, go - find this Sara Tootsya, or Saya Nara, or, like, whatever - just be true to your inner duck, yeah, be true to your school.
