Uncle Mitchy Boo Boo

July 14th, 2008 @ 19:54
Posted by: Jimmie

Mitch and family and friends were down at Guadalupe State park and he jumped off a rock into the river. Unfortunately he jumped onto another rock under the water and broke two bones in one of his legs. He was in the hospital all night and will stay for surgery tomorrow. Pins and screws and setting off alarms at the airport are definitely in his future. He’s staying at the posh Metropolitan Methodist Hospital on McCullough Avenue. Hillary writes, “If you are in San Antonio, visiting hours are 9 A.M. - 8:30 P.M. The hospital website has a place where you can email patients or send ‘virtual flowers’ or ‘cheer-cards’ online.
Their phone number is 210-757-2200 and he is currently in room 528 awaiting surgery.”
Ouch.

My wish for my little brother; fast healing, good meds and food from the outside.

    Wishing you all the “Get Well” energy you need to heal quickly. I broke the long bone in my right foot about a year ago in a similar wingless maneuver.

    You would think we would learn wouldn’t you?

    The thought of a such a serious break is just terrible. So sorry for Mitch because I know it’s going to be a hassle.

    I talked to him earilier and he sounded surprisingly fine. He said not to worry.

    Jim talked to Hillary for a long time and she said the pin is going to go from his knee all the way down to the ankle. It’s a big deal.

    • Lån Penge : Nice layout.. well done m8 «link»
    • DAP : I mean AIC - I just can't keep that straight: Art Institute of Chicago. But it will answer to Chicago Art Institute. :wink:
    • DAP : Chicago was great. The convention had a good turnout and almost all of my sessions were relevant and helpful. I only had a little free time but I did get to go to the CAI again and I went on an architectural boat cruise.I'll post pics soon.
    • John : We was fishing and didn't get to see it but sure glad you did. How was Chicago?
    • DAP : I read the Steve Earle/Warren Zevon chat just in time! Great song - I can't believe WZ has been gone for 5 years already. Didn't you love Steve's Loteria guitar strap?
    • Art : "More like one hundredth of one percent... I'm starvin' here! .........signed, The Spammers Union of Ukraine.
    • John : That's spam, Mom. They send thousand of comments out to random blogs hoping that that one tenth of one percent will click on it and buy something at their website. Pretty rotten, huh? I'm going to delete it.
    • Ann/mom : What does that say?Who is doing the Hoodia gordonii diet? Also I thought it was decided not to use numbers but names on the live shoutbox,what happened? Mom
    • Ann/mom : I need to know where Dr. Haley is so will you call grandma A (system let me use the nn) Deirdre has
    • John : The cooler, drier weather today sure was nice
    • John : ATTN: Deirdre in Chicago! Glenn emailed a link with this blurb... "Tune into David Letterman on Friday, September 5 when Dave welcomes Steve Earle. Steve will commemorate the fifth year anniversary of Warren Zevon's passing by performing the song "Reconsider Me"." I know you're a fan of both those guys.
    • John : Wow. Didn't know that. Maybe we deserve more credit in the Mac world. I notice it says "Nobody who has a Whipple is ever quite the same". Jimmie could probably verify that. :oops:
    • Art : Small World. For all you Mac fanatics like me, did you know that The Whipple Procedure saved Steve Jobs's life? «link»
    • Guest_1215 : Oh heck I dunno....just never fished since I was a kid. I guess I got spoiled with people giving me fish and selling the stuff for a pretty cheap price. I did get all busy and homeschooled both of our daughters and they're now in their twenties, both married and in their own homes. I think I need to rediscover myself and what really matters. Fishing in a quiet place is indeed like a vitamin for the soul.
    • MF : John,you posted the vid? Thats funny! And hats off to miss Jimmie, an angel of peace in a sea of drunken frats! :evil: :mrgreen:
    • John : If you weren't in Hunter, Texas last night you missed it. Walking into Riley's is always like a Twilight Zone trip back to the 30's but last night was particularly entertaining. We took video so we can prove it!
    • John : How can you live on an Island and not fish? You need a fishing pole and an Amphicar.
    • Guest_2590 : John, I asked hubby & he has fished 3 or 4 times here in our 14+yrs. He said most of the people we know do deep sea fishing from boats but there are a couple of piers that are used.
    • MF : congrats Evan on your marching band success! youll be suprised to find out youll be good at most whatever you try 8-)
    • MF : John, you gotta bring miss Jimmie more often, she rocks and is blessed for she is a peace maker.... :mrgreen:
    • Guest_2590 : We have two avocado trees, several banana, some that are the apple banana variety, a tangerine tree, miniature guava and one huge lychee tree that's a ton of shade and great fruit come the end of June. I'll hush for now and go find some breakfast around here....it's noon now. My tea cup runneth dry. Cool that you have one still in high school, or are they both? I gotta read back. Y'all take care.
    • Guest_2590 : I dig eating salmon the most, the teriyaki flavor is my fav. and smoked salmon the other that I like a lot. Had a coconut tree when we bought this place but it was tween 30 and 40ft. high, not even safe to mow under cuz you couldn't hear if the things were about to fall, so....we had it chopped down, sorry to say.
    • Guest_2590 : I do know that neighbors seem to always take small boats out so I don't know if any stand and use poles like we did growing up but I really will ask and find out.
    • Guest_2590 : John, I'll ask hubby since I have not fished since I was a child in Texas, at lake Austin in fact. (Lived in Austin for ten years before moving to Kirby in the last sixties, and living there 13yrs.)
    • John : Evan marched in the marching band in his first High School football game this weekend. New Braunfels Canyon Cougars vs. Pflugerville. Friday Night Lights in Texas is serious business. Our daughter Casey was a Canyon Cougar Cheerleader so we've made our contribution to the gridiron here over the years. Evan sez he expects the best part will be the craziness on the midnight bus rides back from little neighboring Texas cities. Triumphantly back after booming them with some massive tuba.
    • John : Funny how even back in the 60's the price of milk was the barometer for how expensive Hawaii was. Ain't no cows, ain't no wheat fields. But I think I could go on the coconut and fish diet. My question (of course) would be how's the fishing? Are there any shallow bays to fish Texas trout and redfish style? If we ever come visit we'll bring a couple of gallons of milk. 8-)
    • Guest_1215 : Wow, midnight here and five AM for y'all right now. I'll hush, I Hope you and Jimmie are having a good weekend, and I'll peek back in when I'm sitting with a giant cup of tea. Bless y'all and huggz.
    • Guest_1215 : I'll hush for now. I am sorry if I sound like I can't appreciate the good things about the islands. It's just that we were sent here for three years approx...and are in our 15th. LOL.
    • Guest_1215 : Milk is now eight bucks a gallon when not on sale, except in walmart. However, they will not allow any "super walmarts" here cuz I guess they don't want to allow them to run the local grocers out of business.
    • Guest_1215 : I can tell ya right before I turn this machine off and crash, that my favorite Roman Meal bread now costs about 5.79 off base. (we are retired military)
    • Guest_1215 : Howdy again, John, uh, you do know that you just invited someone with a big mouth to talk a lot, don'tcha? LOL.... I can tell you right now that I am one homesick, native Texan and the ONLY reason we live in this obnoxiously expensive place is hubby's job is here. Should I come back here sometimes and type right where I am now....and just "think aloud" a brainstorm on Oahu, for y'all? or anyone got any questions?
    • Guest_461 : «link»
    • Ann : Son, you do understand that I am being very good, right?
    • John : I know you and Jimmie are emailing each other, I just wanted to tell you that an oddly high number of people who read this blog have connections of one kind or another to Hawaii. Anything posted here about the Islands would be read with great interest so please always feel free.
    • Guest_2590 : PS....LOL am I a dingbat or what? I just looked again at the memorial page and not only are we both there, all of us I mean, but our entries are next to each other! Wow, yes a huge coincidence. Gotta get away from this puter...almost six PM here... Karen~
    • Guest_2590 : No, what a trip! I didn't find Jimmie's name there...even missed it now but am rushed at the moment, but Jimmie emailed me today, woo ho and I think she's so cool for taking the time to do so since we weren't personal friends in school or anything...very gracious of her. Anyway, wow so we both knew Leif, too?? I was simply surfing the net and saw the name Webb, remembered Jimmie, the unique soul she was way back and this unique name, put her name in its entirety, to the search engine and fou
    • Jimmie : That's a WILD coincidence.
    • John : Karen, she's at work she'll be home tonight. Find your and her names down the page at this «link» and tell me that's not a coincidence. Was that part of how you found Jimmie?
    • Guest_2590 : Jimmie, I think by the photos I can tell it's really you! this will blow your mind....this is Karen Stewart-Teeter of your old class, LOL. I'm at «email» if you wish to say howdy. I hope you do. Blessings and huggz~ K.
    • Guest_2590 : Does Jimmie Bell Webb of the Judson class of '75 post here??
    • John Whipple Sr. : Yesterday was a "Bad air day" according to the News & Weather. Today should be better! :(
    • John : they're saying this will be the worst allergy season in years. I don't know about the rest of you guys but it feels that way to me. Sufferin'.
    • guest_5872 : oh... prono. I get it! I'm lost on the rest. I do know that klaatu barada nikto is from The Day The Earth Stood Still. :mrgreen:
    • DAP : My Русскй is pretty academic so I’m not that familiar with slang. However, пοрно is a pretty direct alliteration. All you have to know is that what looks like pi is “peh”, “o” is still o, what looks like a lowercase “p” is “err” and that small capital H is “en”.
    • John : Yeah, I figured it was spam. I followed your lead and Googled up a translator site and it seems to say "see a naked breast". Hugh Hefner here has missed the fact that there's no link or way to take anybody back to his site. Another example of Russian failure to grok capitalism. "My American friends I said See A Naked Breast! now when will my rubles arrive?!?"
    • MF : Actually John you might wish to delete that. They said some very nasty stuff about the female body and what not. I looked it up. hope no one here knows any Rusky :cry:
    • MF : It seems you have a new eastern block friend
    • MF : That's Russian. OCHIN PREEYATNA товарищ.
    • Alcotoenlisee : шанцев фото , голая грудь арины шараповой , ананасик порно
    • Art : that's still against the law in most Texas counties so I will retract. I no longer seek your cat's paw in marriage.... but don't despair, the guy from Turkey may still be interested.
    • John Whipple Sr. : either your bar bill is too high. . . .or you just proposed to my cat :D
    • John Whipple Sr. : I'm not too sure what you said. . .
    • Art : I'm not sure what to say. Try this: Klaatu barada nikto! :lol:
    • John : I have to assume that that last comment is spam... what language is that? Or maybe somebody is trying to comunicate with us. 8-)

    • Guest_4849 : Thank you Casey and Sean for the FANTASTIC queso with HOMEmade chili! worth the ten hour drive! :D
    • Tyler Archer : Yeeees- Dr. Haley- that would be the best option- I'll let her know its been decided then :) Happy first day of school those going back today! (or starting)
    • DAP : But we all get special dispensation to call her Dr. Haley, right? ;-) There must have been a strong desire for chili in the air tonight - I made Daddy's enchiladas for dinner. Thank goodness they're too time-consuming to make very often . . .
    • Tyler Archer : I think Dr. Archer is prettier- but oh-well
    • John : Dr. Swift!! People will expect a very speedy exam! Yeah, Mike.... Casey and Sean are coming with homemade chili con queso. I'm choppin' up some onions and bringing some Frito's to make little bowls of Frito Pie. I know it's raining but Queso Con Chili will make everybody's trip worthwhile.
    • Guest_1742 : John, is Casey coming today with her boyfriend and his Nachos?
    • Tyler Archer : my sister is engaged- so in a few months you wont get to see Dr. Archer- you'll have to see Dr. Swift instead
    • John : well Brad is so cool, he'll cruise over this rough patch. His performances on the YouTube sight are the best of anybody's. Where he's talking about inviting us is Krause Springs.
    • MF : John, heard from Brad. He is not singing "keep on the sunny side" yet, but is doing better, and looking forward to the hoot at billion springs. Guess big G told you about the Casbeers craziness :???:
    • John : you're right... the under arm deodorant and allergy medication sectors of the economy must be booming.
    • MF : Humidity?it's not so bad, the mold farmers are really happy at any rate. under arm deodorant sales are through the roof, thus stimulating the economy :wink:
    • Art : Hey, what happened to the iPod music player? It no workee for the last coupla days. :(
    • guest_5873 : yes, send HELP to TEXAS! a dehumidifier. or better yet some scuba gear!!!!
    • Jimmie : it's 90% humidity out there
    • John : I've been out and around. Came back to the house to meet Jimmie for lunch, getting ready to head out again. Glenn and I are going to end up tonight at Sunny Sauceda's band practice not far from you there in Converse. Gonna teach those Tejano boys a couple of Americana originals. Call me if you need me to bring you anything.
    • John Whipple Sr. : I wonder where my son is at? :roll:
    • Ann : Sometimes things happen on this computer that drives me crazy--But today my wonderful son came & fixed my problems. Having him here was so wonderful,but he's very busy so this was such a special thing he did for me. He is always so helpful. I am a very spoiled mother & I know & appreciate it.
    • Guest_4685 : Jerry Springer quote of the day:
    • John : yep, Evan needs some more DV tapes. Each week he's been trying to fit four hours of show on two hours of tape. :wink: He seems to be really interested in continuing to do it so we'll have to get him a fresh pack.
    • michael f : Big John I would like to contribute to the Evan Whipple digital tape fund so we can get John's greatest hits on the airwaves!
    • John : glad you made it without having to swim Mom. I talked to Deirdre, she said they spent six hours taking advantage of the tax-free weekend.
    • ann/mom : Son, I went to Penny's and had to walk through a lot of water, it was pouring. I waited & waited but then just braved it. The rain is great. yes, Casey would make it big, she is a magnificent writer also. MY song is so beautiful.
    • guest_5873 : that's one of many things i miss about texas
    • guest_5734 : yes... big thunderstorms just started here in San Antonio!!! 8O
    • John : they say it's going to rain for four days - that'll be good. It rained all around us last night a dramatic Texas thunderstorm flashing behind rolling clouds, it was very 3D. We wanted a view so we had diner on the high balcony at the River Pub and watched the lightning show over the San Marcos River. Very much worth the effort. Be on the lookout for classic Texas thunderstorms this week, it's the season.
    • Tyler Archer : Dr. Haley Archer moves back to San Antonio- if you need your eyes checked she'll be in the Medical Center till Christmas :D
    • michael F : See if you can exercise some pull and get more Casey and Miss Jimmie and the rest of the clan, out at the whiskey shack!
    • michael F : The one I played in the court yard on your cool little Nashville tuned guitar
    • John : which song?
    • Michael F : that song is not original on youtube captain John...it's by the Memphis Jug Band circa 1920
    • John : Mike, I hadn't heard of that guy. I'll email him and see if he's a Whipple - he might just live near Whipple Creek. He makes a Triple 0 that looks really cool.
    • Michael F : I knew your family was super cool but now you guys are building guitars?! www.whipplecreekguitars.com «link»
    • John : Mom, it was great to have you at Riley's, it was a nice visit. Everybody else needs to try to get out there - it's a real taste of Texas.
    • Tyler Archer : Its not raining by me :cry:
    • Jimmie : Wow. It's pouring down rain! Nice, nice, nice.
    • ann/mom : One more thing, Renee called me from Montana yesterday & was going out on a pontoon boat, having a wonderful time & says it is beautiful there. I am so thrilled that she has had this opportunity.
    • ann/mom : Evan is getting so tall. I'm so happy that Sean's injury has healed so well. By the way,Casey & Sean are such a wonderfull "couple".
    • ann/mom : My friend Shirley & I really enjoyed Rileys last night & I intend to go back when Sean makes his famous chili! Casey sang so beautiful I cried. Leslie is singing better & better,Glen plays guitar like no other,we all know Jimmie is the greatest.With all of that I like Rileys. :D
    • Guest_1880 : That would be most welcome...you whipples and extended whipples are the coolest...it was a mini Woodzie at Rileys.... :D
    • Casey Ann : You're welcome, next time Sean said he wants to make his famous chili con queso - 1st he makes the chilli which takes like 6 hours then he mixes in the queso - it is muy deliciouso ! Pardon my Spanish spelling....
    • Michael F : Thanks Casey for making that awsome stew! Miss Jimmie looked and sounded great!
    • Guest_2477 : Paparazzi John....
    • John : you are welcome, so glad to hear from you. I don't imagine you travel with your washtub bass but we'll have to round one up for next time you come. It doesn't take much to get Whippleworld together to play "old time music".
    • Guest_225 : Thanks Whipple world! After you posted the info about our band contest here in Virginia, we leaped up from 7th to 5th place in the voting! I credit it to the fine folks from Texas.Jan Dave's sister) :D
    • Guest_965 : hoorah miss Jimmie!
    • Jimmie : I feel SO good this morning! Have not taken any medication but have NO pain. Amazing. Promise I will still take it easy. Thanks for all the good wishes! :smile:
    • John : Jimmie's home and everything went perfectly.
    • John : Lots of people have been calling asking about the time so here it is for anybody who hasn't heard. Jimmie's going in today for her little procedure at 12:30 and the operation is at 2:00 so be thinking about her this afternoon! She's going to be fine, don't worry.
    • John : I made that poster for Mike... and he's happy about it. :smile:
    • Guest_2545 : John you are the bees knees and your family is so super awesome ( except for that one you keep locked up in the basement)
    • Guest_993 : God bless you miss Jimmie
    • John : I'm not sure what the autofill is. I don't think you need it.
    • ann/mom : The quilt Jimmie made for Elida was beautiful. Elida is a household name for our family and extended family and we all wish her the best. Yes, that Renee is out traveling but Randy is holding down that beautiful place with the gorgeus view, its in good hands. Love to all Mom
    • ann/mom : Son I am having a very hard time with this sidebar! What is autofill & should I use it?
    • John : I just talked to Mom and Renee's on her way to a 10 day vacation in Montana!! I'd just spoken to Renee the other day and she failed to mention her odessey. I left a message on her machine this afternoon thinking she'd be home. What's up with that? :lol:
    • John : Yeah, she's a great person. Casey, your Mom handmade a quilt for Elida's first baby - they always had a special connection. Elida and Jimmie and I did some trips together: New Mexico, the Valley, Las Vegas and they really enjoyed each other's company. I have 10 years of Elida stories and she has ten years on me.. we'll have plenty of time left in life to sit around and laugh at the funny parts. She came with AB to the Tejas party several months ago and it was very nice. I told her how much I missed her. One of her first questions was "where's Jimmie?" and they sat down a visited quite a while.
    • Casey Ann : I'm so happy for her too - she is such a wonderful person - always so kind and genuine when I met her.
    • John : Elida IS doing great and we are all very happy for her success.
    • Aztex : Wow Casey, Elida really seems to be struggling after already two #1 hits off the new album with Freddie, singing Selena songs with AB on the shootout and on every station and touring more that ever
    • Guest_461 : «link»
    • John : well, Evan did a good job and these first experiments show that we need more light and to somehow keep the mics from being overdriven. We had the two problems we kind of expected to have. We'll get usable video next time out.
    • MF : Sorry I missed Evan's debut Papparazi outing!
    • John : for Evan «link»
    • John : Deirdre and I were talking about it this morning. She'd like to do it Sunday and Monday the 10th and 11th. Problem is most people can't get off that Monday. Glenn, who's heading off to his camping gig says he'll let us know if he bakes to death this weekend. Evan has band camp early every Monday morning. It's amazing we've done as much as we have over the years as hard as it is to round up the Whippleworld campers at the same time.
    • MF : Captain John, will you be having the hoot next weekend? :arrow:
    • MF : white rabbits x3 it is.... :D
    • John : white rabbits, white rabbits, white rabbits. It's what Edna Webb said to say first thing on the first day of the month. Brings good luck.
    • Michael F : "The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it. "
    • John : Taylor's driving all over. I had the exact same thing with Casey so I know it's survivable but the daddy difficulty level for me in watching Taylor drive off down the street by himself is really high. He's a good driver but he's an inexperienced driver and it's deadly out there. Like with Casey, I have a big sense of pride in them doing it but for the first couple of months, it's hell.
    • John Whipple Sr. : The first person that tells a story using all 22 smiley s wins :-o
    • John Whipple Sr. : :?:always glad :D to learn 8O a thing :evil: or two :roll:but, don't worry :cry:I'm bright :idea:sometimes 8-)

    • Tyler Archer : Longest float ever! We floated for at 5 1/2 hours- my arms are gonna be super sore tomorrow
    • John : well done :P
    • Karen A : wanted to try it :evil:
    • Jimmie : to use the smileys it looks like you would drag them in but you just click on them and they pop in
    • Jimmie : what a great day for the river, Tyler. HAVE FUN!
    • Tyler Archer : Are there any good songs about floating down the Guadalupe? If not there should be cause I'm off to the river :D
    • John Whipple Sr. : I like the smiley thing'e. . .You can't get into much trouble. . .and if you do. . . they can only guess :wink: :wink:
    • John : it was in the 70's most of the day yesterday, now the sun is blazing again and it's a steam bath out there. The plants and the frogs are lovin' it.
    • Tyler Archer : I only took one detour home but Castle Hills always floods so its cool
    • John : not up here, I think we've had about an inch.... but from about half way to the border from here and south to Brownsville they were supposed to get 10 to 20 inches. That's an intense flood, the King's Ranch might be underwater.
    • Tyler Archer : uh oh flood? :???:
    • John Whipple Sr. : :lol:
    • John : yeah, a nice rain
    • Tyler Archer : its raining :D
    • John Whipple Sr. : :D :D

    • John : testing the new sidebar chat. :idea:
    • John : you guys been outside tonight? The hurricane is pushing sea air up here. Smells like Padre Island.
    • M. Fletcher : Thanks for the PA tips. I got it all ironed out, but the thing doesnt like my condenser mic, so ill just use two shure 57's. You guys were all great, and the cha-ching strum was a hit!
    • John : When it gets cooler I think Glenn may do it outside more. You would have loved last night, Taylor and Molly sang "Down To The River To Pray" - you could have joined in! Casey sang three original songs and was great. Jimmie sat there and knitted and got up to sing Steve Earle songs behind Brad. Kim parents were there, it was a big crowd. Kim's dad sang. It was a very nice night.
    • Taylor : It was fun singing with Molly!
    • Deirdre : How was Riley's last night? Can't wait until the weather is right for y'all to set up outside. . .
    • John : we're headin' up to Rileys. It's going to be a big night - Casey, Sean, Taylor, Molly, Jimmie... lots of family's coming. Come on up if you can.
    • John : That's the goal. I have a little trouble because I'm, supposed to take care of some business in Wimberley that Saturday. But I'm working on that.
    • M. Fletcher : Capitan' John, are you camping at Glens river thing?
    • M. Fletcher : Miss Jimmie,you are awsome, and you can tell everyone Michael Fletcher said that...!!!
    • John : Yeah, we'll be at Rileys... come on. That'll be fun.
    • Casey : I typed my name and it showed me as Casey. =)
    • Casey : Dad are you going to Riley's tomorrow night? I want to actually play some of my own songs! Let me know if you aren't going so I can give my fingers a break.
    • John : it's misleading because it defaults to putting that guest_xxxx in the box, I wish it just left it blank because it looks like it's done it for some reason and that you're SUPPOSED to be this specific numbered guest. For those of you who get that impression, that's not the case - just type your first name over what's written in there. We have no idea what those numbers mean. It should come up blank and say "enter you name here" and that would end the confusion.
    • guest_5847 : Even when I type my name in it still shows up as guest. Is it something with the Mac or with not being logged in? ....coming out of the closet.... Art.
    • Jimmie : What I like is how I get to know someone through their comments, and if no name is given there can be none of that. If you take credit for what you say it gives others a chance to build a picture of who you are. Bonds and ties can grow. Relationships develop. I have found that this is a pretty safe place for me to be myself, and want to encourage all anony-mouses to give it a try!
    • John : YEAH! Be counted.
    • Renee : Mama and I are reading the comments and we agree that it's pretty lazy of people (not to mention, annoying) when they don't fill in their name and identify themselves.
    • John : That's great. I think "amazing" is the best word to describe the show. Seems like you guys have a lot of fun with it.
    • Dew & Celina : We now have a download link in the archives for people having problems accessing the embedded player in the archives.
    • Dew & Celina : The show is now archived on our station site at «link» in the Show Archive section. We really enjoyed it!
    • John : of course that was way back then Wordpress was first starting and you had to make your own but now there's thousands of great templates for free. There's site after site like this «link»
    • John : It was custom coded for us by a really smart guy named Uzyn in Singapore. Then the rest of us kept adding stuff to where it's now as full as the bed on the Beverley Hillbillies' pickup truck. I could probably give you template if you want it.
    • guest_3289 : what template are you using?
    • guest_3289 : I can't figure out how you get the header and all the little photo thumbnails to change every time you enter this blog. How do you do that? It's great.
    • John : I was telling ya... Quicktime is the most efficient stream. I don't like Quicktime for everything but sometimes you just can't beat it.
    • guest_5676 : I tried to get in the chat room but it took 5 minutes to type a letter.
    • guest_2056 : very sorry about Mitch being laid up. Hope your recovery is as speedy as possible!
    • John : Not readily available. Let's import them!!
    • guest_2056 : well... I've been listening and enjoying it tonight. Very homemade and that makes it very good. Loved Mitch, loved Glenn and Kim but I was really surprised by Cassell. Wow!! Are her record available in the United States??
    • John : I think Dew and Celina's thing is very authentic. One of the best aspects of Americana is the homemade and personal part. I just love it.
    • John : I'm using the Quicktime connection. The shoutcast thing seems to drag my connection down. Go here «link» and hit the second icon from the end.
    • guest_6847 : I've told several people who are listening. If the other links aren't working for you this might «link»
    • John : Dew and Celina.... We're listening to the broadcast right now. Sounds great.
    • Tyler : Jamba Juice finally opened up on Broadway and Hildebrand and I'm super excited- my new favorite place for lunch
    • guest_4551 : poor Mitch, at least his hands are ok, so he can strum away those blues. get well soon Mitch!
    • John : It's so much like poker night... we ought to get a game going while people play just so we can add gambling to the list of Sunday night vices. Bob The Harmonica Player sure was good.
