![]() Everyonce in a while when it's slow at work and I'm at a dead table, I get the chance to look around and just people watch. I noticed this kid (looked barely old enough to be allowed in a casino) wearing a t-shirt that I could've swore said Hotel California when I first glanced at it. But the closer he walked towards me I could see that it actually said Hotel Alcatraz. How I got Alcatraz and California mixed up, I don't know. It was close enough for me to get somewhat of an Eagles fix while I was at work.

![]() Hmmm, if that kid's shirt said Alcatraz on it you might have more problems than him just being underaged!

![]() Most of you here know that I live in a very small town, New Carlisle, Indiana. It is very proud of it's "historical" landmarks and the history of the town. They have commissioned an artist friend of ours to paint a couple mural's on either end of the small downtown area on the historical buildings. The one Sue is currently working on is right around the corner from me and I saw it over the weekend and she was painting a beautiful old building and the surroundings. I had to run to the store last night and as I rounded the corner she was adding the words above it "Hotel Ca...". On my way back home, I had to stop and find out what it was going to say. She informed me it is "Hotel Carlisle".
Oh well, I was having fun with it for a few minutes at least.

![]() Willie, it seems like nearly everytime I see something with the word "Hotel" written on it, my mind automatically thinks of Hotel California. I can't help it.
Yesterday I made a quick trip to Dallas with my cousin. On our way there and back we drove through Denton, TX and we passed by the the Univ. of North Texas and I couldn't help but reminisce about that absolutely wonderful and amazing day that I got to meet Don when he did the lecture about the Caddo Lake Institute. **SIGH**

![]() Well, PB, why in the world would you want to remember THAT???
![]() At my niece's graduation party Friday night, somebody asked if we were going to pull an allnighter. Do I need to tell any of you about the incredible places my mind wandered? ![]()

![]() OMG! I've just seen my first TV advert for Don's new 'best of' CD!!!! There's glimpses of him walking on a beach (at least I presume it's him - my mind was whirling!) in black trousers and a white shirt, and then a very nice picture of the front cover. Swoon! My heart's racing! (Sad, isn't it?)

![]() I got an Amazon alert for that as well Lou! Worth buying I'd say!
Willie! I only need to see 'Hotel.....' and thats enough to get me going!!D As some of you know we have been having a bit of a goldfish saga here at the moment. To cut a long story short I have had to buy goldfish for the children on several occasions this week. Everytime I buy them the guy writes 'GF €3.50' on the bag. Just seeing the GF sends my mind incredible places.......

![]() ![]() Now this is just pathetic...I saw a guy at work that had his right hand all bandaged up and I couldn't help but think about Timothy when he got bit by that dog a month or so ago. Even when I'm at work and should be focused on my job I've got Eagles on the brain.

![]() When I have seen the tour documentary of the last genesis tour this morning
I had to think immediately of Don Henleys song Come rain or come shine, because the name of documentary is Come rain or shine.
