Safe travels, Tommy! For road music, nothing beats the Allmans' "Jessica." And when I read, "I could hear the robot talking, in a friendly female voice, but I couldn’t quite hear what she was saying … probably 'Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated. Be careful of wet spots' or something like that," I cracked right up.
Re: old dogs..My 15 year old spaniel Doodle sleeps about 22 or 23 hours a day now, she's blind and deaf, but still in there. I have to wake her up for evening walkies now. We go, but slowly . Every morning and evening I whisper "don't go yet." She still wakes me up for morning walkies. Am I the only one who kisses her dog in the mouth?
Thank you for making me pause in my day to listen to Ramblin Man. When I was a hippy living with 6 friends we blew out our house speakers listening to that album. Sparks flew. Perfect. Aloha from Hawaii.
