I think the word of the Sandstress Bender got out to the Whole World, and must have included some Dickhead. Such things are hard to avoid. Clancy, we've a 1039.

For those of you who haven't heard yet, Charlie is now sipping martini's with Jeff, Mary Dell, & Annis, amongst other friends and family! As Pammie put it so perfectly, he's probably holding court telling them all how much he has missed them the past few years. God Bless you Pam & Carrie and family! Charlie will be greatly missed AND now he is talking about all of us with Moosie!!

A Rotten Post! Now who's shocked? For those who didn't know - URotty shaved his beard for his latest play in Ketchikan; it's the first time his chin has seen air in 25 years. And!! I have photos of him playing the Insurance Agent in "You Can't Take It With You". Black suit, skinny tie, mustache. If you can use these pictures to a Malicious advantage, and only if it's malicious, send money.

Hey Carrie - I loved your posting! At first I thought you were writing about the Aries crowd!!!!! There is a band called the Dark Star Orchestra (DSO) that recreates Grateful Dead shows in their entirety. They do an amazing job and sound "just like the Dead". Check out their website and listen a bit, you actually believe it's Jerry and the boys playing. They are going to be in Seattle May 15th at the Showbox - bring some friends down and come play with us. Nappy and I are going, I think Hare is in, and various other Deadheads! I went to see them in Seattle when Moosie was still with us, (I think Bender stayed with him that night....yeah, thats right, when I got their the next morning the recycble bin was full!!!)Anyhow,I played the tape of the show for your dad and he was shocked it wasn't Jerry!

Sorry RG - it's the late winter doldrums of work and repairing the property from the winter. Was a hard winter, or the property was weak, or maybe I put off a few things - it's all come back to bite me in the termination of the lower intestine. This year Audrey is looking at colleges to attend, and it appears we're takeing the Spring Break to head to AZ and look at Tucson. If we don't make Aeries - well, back to stories about the property. Love to all.

Okay this is a little long, but I thought you all would like to hear it. I came across this in the CD booklet of a Dead CD I recently bought..."In 1965 a Bay area wild bunch burst forth onto the music scene. Beginning as The Warlocks, the Grateful Dead would evolve into one of our most significant rock bands-a genuine contribution to American pop culture. The Dead started off as psychedelic saddle tramps, scruffy and somewhat intimidating. In reality, their motives were pure and sweet. They were gentle and at one with their fans. The Grateful Dead were an artistic and social endeavor extending through a fan base that became a worldwide network, trading tapes and swapping stories. Some even quit their jobs to follow the Dead on the road. The fact that this band played at the pyramids in Egypt is a testament to their adventurous spirit, not to mention a feat of global and spiritual diplomacy...There were many high points on the Dead trail. For myself and millions of fans, we seemed to be living for the next concert. It was a colorful, electric, mind-altering world. Just the band's name conjured up something gothic and mysterious. It was a blessing and a curse. To radio programmers, The Dead sounded gruesome, but for the "dedicated" it meant a trip down the Golden Road, one paved with good intentions and the vibe of the late '60s, early '70s. Their biker-mod look evolved into everyman's persona. It was your pals up there onstage-they knew us and played their asses off..." -James Austin

Just so you all know, the Tofanelli sisters went on a junket to Jekyll Island, Georgia, last week. Met in DC on Feb 21st (Bug and Carla got there a few days before) - hooked up with Page (who lives there) and Dani (who was interviewing there) and had a great dinner including PC's sister Colleen and daughter Erin. Then flew to Jacksonville and drove north to Jekyll (the scene of two spring breaks when in Bronxville High School back in the mid '60's, thus the venue selection) for four days. Great rounds of golf (our dad would have been so pleased), some tennis, and lots of martinis, wine, and beer. We did all FOM's proud. First time ever we've done a trip like this - just the three of us. Carla organized everything. Bug and I showed up. Hope we can do it again. And add the Mooseketeers! Love to all...as Aries XXXVI looms!!!

Ok and hello to all FOMs out there lurking in the ether. I've got a news flash from the Hare household. Some of you have heard this bombshell - probably most have not. After several years of thinking we were "done" after having our 2 boys, we recently thought, "ah, what the heck, let's shoot for 1 more and maybe we'll get a girl to mix things up." Well, low and behold - Presto - Laura's pregnant. But that's not all! We are talking TWINS!!! So we are apparently going to skip #3 and immediately double the number of Rugrats in residence. Laura is only about 11 weeks along, so we've got a ways to go but so far, everything looks good and we are on track for mass chaos come August/September. No info yet on whether we're talking about boys or girls ... but if I were a betting man (and I have been know to be one on occasion), I'd bet the house on 2 more boys.... We are actively looking for names - Rotty is already on the short list in honor of our boys' "favorite uncle" - but we'd accept additional suggestions. One thing I know for sure - we need a new car.... Still trying to figure out exactly how this happened - but let it be a lesson to all you out there - IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU! Be afraid, be very afraid....

Hi FOMS, Just a short recap of the annual Older, Sandstress, Louise, and Bug get together (alas, Bug was sick and could not make it--we missed her!). A raucous time doing Thursday night at the boat at Shelter Island, Friday junking it in OB (the Chenilles were born there!), picking up the Older and then to Ocean Beach for great lobster and fish tacos and margaritas and wine and wine and wine and wine. Back to the boat for bracelets, candles, Fifi, Moose headcovers, bathrobes and sweatshirts and WINE and WINE and WINE. Saturday morning out on the bay with the hair of the dog and breakfast and soaking up the So Cal sun before heading out to do a gig at Casa Del Zorro. The Chenilles will probably not be invited back!. Then burgers at Carlee's and off to Charlie's condo. Sunday golf at BSCC (no wind, Aries people!-a gorgeous day) where the Older had her best game ever and (with Moose's help?) sank a very difficult lots of break uphill putt. It was evident that Sandstress had been listening to Muni's good golfing advice cuz she was hitting the heck out of the ball. Moose also helped Louise win the overall putting (thanks, Moose, won $3.50 and paid $27.00 in the bar!!!). A few other memories: a stolen bottle of hotsauce, a new way to put on lipstick, and a "poodle fix" for the Older. Thanks, Older and Sandstress for an unforgettable few days, and keep the green light on! Louise

Hey Jeff, I'm thinking you still check in here once in a while. Got a favor to ask. My Dad's about to leave through that same door that you took - the Crap in the lungs for him. If you wouldn't mind, maybe you could meet him on that side. His name's Lou. Been a golfer for 50 years or so, and a fun guy. I hope you can show him around a bit, read a few putts for him until he gets a feel for the greens. He'd love to hear you pick a little, too. Maybe "Fishin' Blues" - he'd like that. Thanks, man.

Oh no! PC on the DL? That's horrid news! When can we expect him back in the starting lineup? PC is far too valuable to be on the sidelines for long! Hope the leg recovers nicely, PC (skiing-related leg injuries ... been there, done that...). Enjoy the rest (and sympathy) while you can!!!

Okay all you FOM's and Aries-Wannabes, I want to set the record straight: I thought the cop was a prostitutue.....No wait, wrong charge: There is absolutely no truth to the rumor that the combined stress of the holidays past and the Pre-Aries planning forced PC to take that tumble while skiing in Jackson Hole. He didn't see that creek bed. Honest. So send your best wishes his way while he laughs his way merrily through recuperation in the Heartland, Dubuque, away from the lonesome plains of I-O-WAY. At least that's his version of the "incident." Personally, I think he just couldn't take another Aries planning session. The wimp. Patient and leg are doing fine, thanks to good doctors and even better drugs. I just spoke with him on the phone, and promised to start spreading malicious rumors. Consider it done!!

Twas the night before Christmas and under the spruce not a creature was stirring not even the Moose. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care in hopes that the spirit of Jeff would be there. The caddies were nestled all snug in their sheds with visions of painted golf balls in their heads. And Ma in her do-rag and I in my (Dodger's) cap sat down by the window for a pre-Christmas rap. When what to my wondering eyes should appear but a green Volvo wagon creeping up in first gear. With a spry impish driver it pulled to the curb. I knew in a moment it must be St. Herb. More rapid than eagles his (golf) coursers they came and he whistled and shouted each shot by its name. "On slicer, on dicer, on bogey, on par. On birdie, on divot, on 19th Hole bar." His droll little mouth was drawn up in a grin and I was so grateful he chose to come in. He was cheerful and chatty, a right jolly old elf and I smiled 'cause he looked so much like his old self. Was I scheming or dreaming? Just who was that guy? Was it just wishful thinking? Did he really stop by? I poured us an eggnog and stifled my doubt, letting funny fond memories of Jeff float about. Laying a finger aside of his nose, he said, "You're my pal, but, man, work on your prose." A wink of his eye and a twist of his hair soon gave me to know Jeff would always be there. Amen. r, c, and a USA - Thursday, January 03, 2002 at 13:39:52 (EST)

Notice to all FOM's: The third annual Moosehunt golf tournament was held on Sunday, December 14th, at the Mid Ocean Club. With sunny skies and 75 degrees, 7 foursomes took to the field in a scramble format. The victorious four were Brant, Carolyn, Stephen and Jim (Marini's Founders partner), with eight under par. It was a glorious day and Moose would have loved it. Lunch followed the golf, with speeches by Brian and Ricky (the organizer). Funds raised (about $1,700, I believe) will go to PALS, a Bermuda charity for cancer patients. GOOD STUFF!!! Seasons Greeting, all FOMs! Love, RG

If he's 20, and you're...I'm confused. Bday greetings to RG and Bender. Two of my favorite people. I'll have my students sing "Happy Birthday" to the both of you tomorrow. I can just see it "...happy birthday dear Rat Girl & Bender..." 8 year olds will believe anything you tell them. "Yes kids, she's called Rat girl because she looks like a real rat with a long tail and eats cheese and everything. And Bender is her evil side kick!" What fun! You two enjoy your golf this weekend. Think of me freezing up here.

Birthday greetings to RG and NBender from the RAINY Southwest! Hope you two have half as good a time as Sandstress and I did in July! Love, Louise

Oh my god! You GPNW-ers are just too much. Right now I'm finishing my Chef BoyAreDee can of Beef Ravioli - always been my closet favorite - as Bri has a board dinner tonight. But we'll party seriously this weekend, in NYC, while you guys are out golfing, with theCrahans and Marinis. Let's compare notes on Monday. HB to the Scorps (Bender, or course, and also Cullen, who on Oct 25th turned 20 - yikes )! And well done Louise in escaping some real bad danger. Love all you guys!! RG

Now how could she be 35 and still be a Senior in high school? I can't believe they can insult you like that Nancy. Why dont you come up here this weekend and we can make it a double birthday bash in beautiful North Bend. We'll get you some fake ID and sneak you into the bars. Happy Birthday!!!

38? I'd say it's more like 35! A great big HB to RG from everyone in the GPNW! Make sure the Can is extra-special-nice to you today, RG! You deserve it - today and always! We'll raise several glasses in your honor out at NBender's this weekend! And speaking of NBender, while you don't look as good as RG, B-day greetings off in your general direction as well! Remember, you're not so much getting older, just one step closer to shooting your age.... Louise, very glad to hear you were not touched by the fires. A bit too close for comfort, I'd say! Hope everyone is well....

Happy B'Day Rat Girl! Does she look 39? Hell no!! More like 38!! Great news Louise - you and John have been in a lot of thoughts and the topic of many a conversation here in the NW. Between Fabian and the San Diego fires our friends have been facing some serious tribulations. My advice - come to North Bend and play golf this Saturday.

Hi everyone, The warehouse escaped the fire, and so Moose's artwork and all of the memorabilia from his life were both saved. The fire burned right down to the building and then the wind changed direction and so all was saved. Might Moose have had a hand in that? Love, Louise

Hi everyone, I just wrote a lengthly report on the So Cal fire crisis and submitted it but guess it didn't make it in here. So here goes again: We are still here and wearing masks whenever we go outside. 1,600 homes and an area the size of Rhode Island has burned so far, but it is raining lightly today and containment of the fires is expected within a couple of days. We personally know quite a few people who lost their homes. A total tragedy. There is a community spirit alive though and lots of help out there for the people who lost everything. Moose's artwork and boxes of junque were in a warehouse in Lakeside (by Barona Indian Reservation). I am not sure it is still there and cannot get down to check it out because road is closed. This last few days has proved that life indeed is fragile and we must make every day on our trip count. Love, Louise

The problem has been tracked down and fixed. The Moose B. Free CyberCocktail Party is back on the air.

By the way, in digging through a stack of email that I have in my deadgolf folder, I ran across the email that marked the beginning of this web site.  It was entitled in Moose's oddly direct way "Uh Oh".   I don't think he would mind if I shared it now.

Al,
Bad news from my biopsy. Positive for throat carcinoma. I'm putting up a page on my site for those who may be concerned.
