Indeed she was, Eccles!  I, myself, have never had one - but I believe I will tomorrow.  It appears to be the rage.

As for Cincinnati, some great thoughts, Eccles.  It seems so random that it could just be anywhere other than here - meaning outside of our world - or at least, our world of understanding.   Or as you suggested, but its name is irrelevant.  All Shaun seems to remember about it is that "there were some good ones".

Continuing on that thought... John and Link in Ep 10:

Link: If you are the end, then I am near you?
John: Yes, Link


Can anyone explain this line to me?  ( I think, somehow, it speaks to what Cincinnati is)

Waxon, is that Pink Floyd, eh? No, no, no, no quitters, no receding, a leave of absence is OK. Everyone, please, don't forget to check in, don't get us all worried.

No, no it  was just a joke.  This is me checking in.  

(and stopping by for a night cap)

Hi ZFan! 

Sorry,.... I was receding.   8)

is there anybody out there?
just nod if you can hear me
is there anyone at home?

(Blink)

Both of you!  

  :D   Now thats keeping a positive light on things!

Waxon, what is your summer drink of choice? Mine is Limoncello  martini on the rocks. Last call for summer concession, place your orders!

My preference is not based on time of year but where I am drinking it   ;)

That being said - I just have draft.  (Later when I get home I might just have a little Irish Whiskey)

BTW, Can you imagine what a stranger might think if you approached them on the beach and said "Score?"?  8)

what we sometimes need is a warm body that can give a hug or go sit under a tree and drink wine.

Who couldn't use that!  I have two little warm bodies that are pretty good at hugs, but wouldn't last 3 seconds under that tree.  As for them drinking wine - well, believe me, I am tempted sometimes!

Anyway, glad you are back, Skor.   Gin and tonic coming right up! 

(Might have some bad weather coming your way.  Hope it moves back out to sea.)

Chat!  Great to hear from you.  I have been thinking about you - and wham! here you are.  You just keep that window open, honey, we wouldn't want Zippy to break his beak!  Come here as often as you can - and stay as long as you like.  We got some good vibes here - and that's a commodity these days.

Welcome home, Skor.  Another injury free trip!  You're on a roll!  I think Ramon is tending bar - your drink should be right up (he just went back to the kitchen to get an order of figs for the Captain).  ;)

I'll take a pint of Guiness  :P

Make that 2.  And a large coffee, please.

Hey Patrick, Ray, Rhonda!

Can I buy you all a beer?

Looks fine to me, but don't be afraid to change anything you want or do a completely different letter.  You know I won't be offended. 

Great scenes and great music, Captain!  Thank you. 

Please write more when you can. 

"There's a parade this afternoon down at the pier for Shaun and John. 3:30, 4-o'clock. Don't be no-shows. You're in it."


Dear __________,

Blah, blah, blah, blah blah blah blah... we're talking we're talking. You're listening, now you're listening. Look at the bears for a second. Look at the bear, look at the bear.  That's good. Hey, you wearin' them clothes to the parade?

"The end is near."  OK, so the end has come and gone, but fortunately we are still here!  

JFC.net cordially invites you to our On-Line Parade – celebrating the 3rd anniversary of the Stinkweed parade.  And, yes, you're in it (we hope!)  We need your ideas, pictures, videos, comments and anything else you may wish to contribute.   Our parade also celebrates the friendships, fun and intellectual exchange we enjoyed on the bulletin boards that once brought us together as we sought to understand the story, "John from Cincinnati" – which was so mysteriously intriguing and cancelled so abruptly.  

What lines from the show do you still think of or use in conversations?  

Have you turned on your radio and heard a song that takes your imagination back to Imperial Beach, CA?

Do you sometimes think of some of the many efforts to save the show – and laugh to yourself in amazement that you would follow or even be a part of such an endeavor?  

Truly, John, his father, his father's father and the many characters we so intimately befriended in our hearts, touched our lives in a special way.   Now we can revisit some old friends, and some old feelings in another creative endeavor by JFC.net.

The line and circle are big.  On the wall, the line and circle are huge.  Come to the parade and let the wave lift you up!

Sincerely,

Great to see you, Ray!  I trust you are well. Word on the streets is we are going to have a parade!  (What you're wearing will be fine).  The stinkweed girls will be there... ;)
