Location: Evansville,IN | I thought something was a bit strange Sunday evening along the Audubon Parkway in Ky. I was headed West, and seen an English doubledecker bus headed East.
I wasn't sure about the occupants, until we passed each other, but those ears gave them away. :D |

It is, in fact a federal crime, to use Llama's as road barriers and to employ non-union Llamas as muscians for any publically held event. |

Location: Midland, MI | I'm surprised that nobody mentioned that old chestnut, 'Squeezebox.' Being as I can't be at the OFC get together this year (Agent Jeff Fowler filed for a restraining order, I guess), I've done my part by providing lyrics for you all to use:
----------OFC Squeezebox----------
Llama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
And when WMoody comes home
He never gets no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Llama's got a squeeze box
cliff never sleeps at night
Well W2's kids don't eat
And Moody can't sleep
There's no escape from the music
In the whole damn street
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Llama's got a squeeze box
Bailey never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out
She's playing all night
And the music's all tight
Llama's got a squeeze box
Schroeder never sleeps at night
She goes, squeeze me, come on and squeeze me
Come on, Phil, tease me like you do
I'm so in love with you
Llama's got a squeeze box
Alpep never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Llama's got a squeeze box
StpehenT28 never sleeps at night |

I'm impressed. Your song is great. This song has to be put on the Ovation DVD. It really makes me wish that I could make this year's tour. I'm trying to make it but my schedule may not allow it. |

How I thought of another song for you to work on.
"The Llama Sleeps Tonight"
An openning verse could be:
In Cliff's house, In Cliff's house
The llama sleeps tonight.
You can take it from here. |

Location: Midland, MI | Sorry, Phil, but I'll have to opt for another classic...Paul McCartney's 'Llama on the run'
-----Llamas on the run-----
Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever,
Never seeing no one nice again like you,
llamas you, llamas you.
If I ever get out of here,
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity.
All I need is to post all day
If I ever get out of here.
Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash as we fell into the sun,
And the first one said to the second one there I hope you’re having fun.
llamas on the run, llamas on the run.
And alpep man and samova sam were searching every one
For the llamas on the run, llamas on the run, llamas on the run, llamas on the run
Well, the private eye (moody) drew a heavy sigh seeing no one else had come,
And cliff was crying in the village square for the llamas on the run.
llamas on the run, llamas on the run.
And the Woody man, bailey and sam, were searching every one
For the llamas on the run, llamas on the run, llamas on the run, llamas on the run
Well, the night was falling as New Hartford's world began to settle down.
In the town they're searching for us every where, but we never will be found.
llamas on the run, llamas on the run
And the county judge, who held a grudge
Will search for evermore
For the llamas on the run, llamas on the run, llamas on the run, llamas on the run
------------
Or, maybe Zappa's ever popular 'Yo Llama':
----- Yo Llama -----
Maybe you should stay with yo llama
She could do your laundry n cook for you
Maybe you should stay with yo llama
Youre really kinda stupid n ugly too
(verse repeats)
You aint really made for bein out in the street
Aint much hope for a fool like you
cause if you play the game, you will get beat
Maybe you should stay with yo llama
She could do your laundry n cook for you
Maybe you should stay with yo llama
Youre really kinda stupid n ugly too
And
You should never smoke in pajamas
You might start a fire n burn yer face
Maybe youll return to managua
You could go unnoticed in such a place |

Howzabout an ole Merle Haggard tune: "Llama Tried"

Doing life without parole
No one could steer me right
But Llama tried,Llama tried
She tried to raise me better
But her pleading I denied
That leaves only me to blame 'cause
Llama tried..... |

Seems like people think "Out West" is anywhere past the Rockies and it's not far from one place to another. |

I cant help but note that so far in this discussion, no one has mis spelled the word "lama."
Apparently, everyone knows the three types of "lama."
1- the "one L " lama,(tibetan monk)
2-the "two L" llama, (S.American mammal)
3- the "three L" lama, (a heck of a big fire.) |

I have found that New Yorkers especially are geographically challenged. I have many stories, but this isn't the place for them. I thought that maybe New Yorkers never saw the same maps that we do, but when I've been in New York the weather reports showed the whole country, just like they do here.
Willard, where did you live in Idaho? You and I are reversed. I was born in Wisconsin and moved to Idaho. You went the other direction. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I'm surprised you knew where the Midwest is, Cliff. I had a New Yorker ask whether there were any States between Michigan and Idaho and which direction Idaho was from Seattle.
Another thought we had a blackout over the whole Western US because he couldn't see any street lights. Several don't believe that there are actually places where one city limit doesn't meet another city limit. Then there are the New York cab drivers that can't find the New York Life building even when I gave them an address.
I could go on and on. |

A hotel doorman asked me if he could call me a cab and I told him that's why I was walking in the first place. It was a nice day and I didn't have too much luggage. They aren't as scary as the cabbies in Italy. They seemed to be Italian. |

You really do go against the grain. You are only the second person I have heard of that moved back to the Midwest from Sandpoint. The first was a guy who left Boise to move to Sandpoint in 1978, just after I moved here from Iowa. A few years later I go back to Iowa to visit the old law school and there he is teaching. Didn't recognize him cause he got all cleaned up. Only recognized the name, Paul Papak. |

We came back for a few reasons. The schools in Bonner County, ID are the pits. They go in and out of accreditation from one year to the next and we didn't want our kids to end up spelling like me. Also, my Mom and Dad were getting pretty old and we thought it might be nice to be able to spend some time with them. I sure do miss the mountains and lakes you can drink from. |
