You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them. - Ray Bradbury
I am a native eastern Oregonian, and have lived here 50 of my 62 years. I left at 20, but was back by age 32 to be near my parents to help them in times of need. I don't fit in politically here because I view things from a decidedly left wing perspective... but that's o.k. because I love the people, I love the area and for the most part I like living here. I enjoy family time, listening to music, reading books, traveling, bird watching, hiking, backpacking, watching movies, keeping up on politics, watching sports, sitting at the computer so much I get sores on my ass, and playing music... if you need a band for your party or celebration, let me know; I play keyboards and sing for a rock and roll band, and we do mostly "classic rock". (I also like to play guitar and bass and other instruments, but those are for my private enjoyment only!) I am mainly an agnostic/skeptic, but would consider myself spiritual. I work in schools and in clinical settings as a speech/language therapist. It is enjoyable work and it pays some of the bills. I have a rather unpredictable sense of humor, which can get me in trouble at times, but hey, is life worth living without laughter? I think not!

Hello Snave, It looks like the Dodgers are trying to get back in this thing. Most of the experts have overlooked them. Lately, the team with the best record,i.e., the Cards, meets an early demise. When the Mariners won-what was it?- 111, didn't they make a first-round exit?
Look for the Braves to beat the Rocket Man tomorrow. Russ Ortiz is going for the Bravos. He was battered-lots of homers allowed-late in the season and wasn't expected to take a turn in the rotation. Redemption time, eh?
I didn't notice til tonite that you replied to my Beatles foray. Sexy Sadie and Helter Skelter should have been added to my list. And in hindsight, you can add "You Never Give Me Your Money," and "With A Little Help From My Friends." And how could I have forgotten "Revolution?"
It's hard to rank the tunes. I love 'em all. But the White Album was always my personal favorite.
Thanks for responding to my posts. And all the way from Seattle. FAA, v.c.
