Well that was fun - wish I could have been here for more of it, but my lunch was calling me.
My link merged right into Thank Christ for the Bomb. Maybe I'll keep-a-listenin'.
Thanks, everyone! Always a pleasure. I'll keep dropping by when able.

Groundhog trivia:
I grew up in Ohio in farm country. Groundhogs were knicknamed "whistle pigs". Partly because they would stand up on their hind legs and whistle very loudly to communicate and partly because they can eat their weight in crops many times over. Farmers hate them. My Dad used to hunt them. I would never harm an animal, but I do sympathize with the farmers.

Incredible in many ways - your experience, his playing, such a low turnout for a master - like Kath, I too am on the envious side.

If you feel the need to go gator tippin', load up on Gatorade before you start.
