Bob My Boy,

You're absolutely right!  Now that you mention it, I do recall you & Lieuen
coming in my pad hitting me with all this whacko shit & me scribbling it
down.  On future trips we augmented the list of contributors & eventually
pared it down to the funniest ones for GN.  Dang__I should have remembered
The Pelican as our source of inspiration as I was Ranger "exchange editor"
about this time & it was one of my favs of the whole national crop.  Every
thing comes from some where, right?  My problem is remembering WHERE.

See??  I knew if I mentioned/didn't mention you enuff in my aimless
meandering rants I'd lure you out of your lair!!  And some of you other
folks too.  Well, I'll have to store your input for future reference.  Can't
expect me to keep "updating" my series of rants to perfection, can you??
Hell, ol' Jon's delete-button finger is already stiff, calloused & out of
joint as it is.  Gosh Jon, that's crushing news because I dutifully save ALL
your posts as Pearls of Wisdom...

One Pearl, telebob, was mention that You had dreamed up that immortal phrase
"set yor chickens free."  THAT I  didn't know.  Gilbert?  How bout OW & the
36/39 Flavors?  That yor brainchild too??  Few of us at the time ever
recorded how these funny things originated; we were too busy living it...

Bob, were you at that Rolling Stone formation meeting?  Before yor time, eh?
Chet would know where the name-idea came from, but he ain't on the List. jjj
