I remember all the bells were ringing, and all the people were singing....

Fido
So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

Oh, yes - I have that song on my iPod. I also have her Diamonds and Rust album -

Hey, Bill--

Our group plays that song nearly every weekend, but, unlike Ms Baez, we get the lyrics right!

I need to apologize; my source was wrong. The rocking chair was made in Montgomery, Alabama.

If anyone gets this right, I may consider going to the Concrete Park with Joe and Gene: Upon his return to Maryland in 1869, where did Dr. Mudd spend his first night of freedom?

Barnum"s Hotel. We're leaving at 9:00 AM Monday after the conference. See you then. I'll bring you some cheese for the ride.

I know this isn't the right answer, Laurie, but I can't resist!

THE TRAPPE!

RE: Assassination Trivia
Jim - Frankie Mudd would have killed him! Wishful thinking.

Joseph - Oh ***** (er fudge)! How did you know that so quickly. I just learned it today. Luckily I did not put it under Stump the Yankee. You're going to need to bring some Jack Daniels in order to get me inside that Concrete Park. Wait a minute - Gene is going on this trip also, and I believe that he comes from a state known for its smooth bourbon.

I thought it ironic that Mudd would spend that night at the Barnum's City Hotel where much of the early secessionist protests and later Booth plans were hatched.

Of course you did, but where did you find it so quickly? Please don't tell me Ed's book on His Name Is Still Mudd, which I love and is now out-of-print.
