I have two tickets for four days at Falcon Ridge. My friend and I are big fans of all the music, but she broke her foot so we won't be able to go. If anyone is interested in purchasing them ($70 each, no camping) please contact me off list.

I'll see your your title and raise you some lyrics. I'll call it: Transit: Can You Hear Me Now? The merge from I-80 was hectic, that9s what they said The five o9clock news tonight warned alert level9s red They honked and changed lanes, squealed with glee To the bad music on their cds While the kids in the back seat ignored them "This will never be me." Somewhere near Paterson, missed the exit for Wayne The all-news station reported Britney9s drinking again. There9s a van from St. Agnes's church And a nun who is left in the lurch By the side of the road, her habit nowhere to be found They all hit the gas pedal, moved to the third lane Explorers and Tahoes, sometimes an Escalade I can go faster and farther than you To my condo in the country, it9s got quite a country view. And so they drove on, checking their phones Like reality t.v., all skin and no bones Why has no one called me? I9m Important, how can this be? Their hubris tricked them to the Delaware Water Gap How had it happened? They were all still in motion Free minutes, nights free, some other promotion? My ringtone9s unique as a new PATH train token New Jersey9s got cell towers, are they all broken? I9ve still got 9 months left on my contract There9s no coverage here, I want my deposit back I swear I9ve got friends, I swear I9ve got family How can it be that they can9t get in touch with me? They followed their GPS, tried to keep focus Seems like ages ago they passed through Ho-Ho-Kus The damn highway leading them, this way and that way, Is it true that they stopped to pee in Piscataway? Sister Maria changed the tire all on her own No On-Star, no cellphone, did it all by herself, all alone. "Technology is all good and well for those who can9t think for themselves. I9ve no time for that - I9ve got somewhere to be." She entered the prison - there were her children Blue collar criminals, some of whom could9ve been Soaring like swallows returned to Capistrano But they all dreamed of being like Tony Soprano "You9ve been sentenced, you9ve been condemned You9re still better off then the rest of those other men Tied to their pagers, tied to their cell phones No where to escape, no place to be on their own." They cried for their juries, like Abel for Cain They thanked the Good Lord that they9re finally out of range Of MCI, Sprint, Verizon and Zeta-Jones In their pocket a quarter to use the ol9 pay phone ------------------------------ End of shindell-list-digest V6 #142 ***********************************
