Product Details

From an adult perspective, this tape is amazing. The playing is superb and intelligent, the lyrics are sincere, heartfelt, and often pull-your-leg funny. Grisman and Garcia play with and off each other beautifully.
The musical skill here is extremely high, but feels unforced and simple.
For example, listen to the song "Arkansas Traveller" about an encounter between a city slicker and a country bumpkin:
Slicker: Well, hello stranger.
Bumpkin: Why, hello stranger!
Slicker: Yer corn looks awful little and yeller.
Bumpkin: I planted the little and yeller kind.
[cue duet]
Listen to the banjo and mandolin duet of turkey in the straw; the playing is quite intricate and beautiful.
What's right about this tape: it entertains and engages without once stooping to dull playing or insincere, tired singing. Unlike Raffi, for example, this tape never feels like an act.
Recommended for any kid. Also, any adult who likes good acoustic or folk guitar. This is a tape I play all the time, whether or not kids are around.
* Please, no hate mail from all 15 of you adult Raffi fans. I know the lyrics to Baby Beluga and I'm not afraid to use them.
This album features the bluegrass, twangy sound that Garcia and Grisman became known for. It's really no different there. But unlike just about all their other albums, this one you can sing along really loud and have a blast doing it. Good stuff.
I have a theory about kids and banjo music: I have yet to find a child who doesn't respond positively to it, and I think it's because it's rhythmic, quiet and silly at the same time. People who associate him primarily with his endless Grateful Dead guitar jams may not know that Jerry Garcia was a very skilled banjo picker. David Grisman's mandolin adds harmony and a faraway soulful sound, a perfect combination for the traditional songs on this album.
While you're at it, check out other Grisman/Garcia CD's for equally excellent music and production ('Shady Grove', 'The Pizza Tapes'), or Woody Guthrie's classic 'Songs to Grow On', perhaps the greatest children's album ever.
It was originally given to me by a friend that REALLY didn't like folk music and bought it because Garcia's name was on it. What a great album to get!! All the songs are SUPER tastefully done, but as the title implies, adults will enjoy these tunes as much as anyone!
Really groovin' little disc!

One year after ATF agents attempted to serve a search warrant at the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, the final chapter in the saga was being written in San Antonio.
Several of Branch Davidian cult leader David Koresh's followers were tried on murder, attempted murder and weapons charges in federal court in San Antonio.
Four of were found not guilty, including Clive Doyle.
"Branch Davidians are not anti-government and not anti-law enforcement," Doyle said after the trial. "I'm sorry that those four agents are dead."
Four agents from the federal government's Alcohol, Firearms and Tobacco agency were killed in an exchange of gunfire with Koresh and his followers on Feb. 28, 1993.
That began a 51-day siege that ended when the Branch Davidian compound burned to the ground after the government fired tear gas canisters into the compound.
Koresh and 75 of his followers died.
The trial in San Antonio ended in February 1994 with no murder or attempted murder convictions.
Six Koresh followers were found guilty of voluntary manslaughter and weapons possession charges.
4 agents killed in Branch Davidian raid honored
Many of the federal agents involved in the botched raid on the Branch Davidians compound have gathered in Waco to remember the four agents killed 20 years ago.
The U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives held a private ceremony Thursday to honor agents Conway LeBleu, Todd McKeehan, Robert John Williams and Steven Willis. They died in the Feb. 28, 1993, gun battle that erupted when agents raided the compound of the religious group suspected of stockpiling weapons. Six members of the group also died.
ATF spokeswoman Franceska Perot said ATF acting director B. Todd Jones spoke at the ceremony. Relatives of Willis and Williams attended as well.

Do you remember that episode of The Simpson's when Homer takes unfair advantage of an all-you-can-eat seafood restaurant, literally eating EVERYTHING until Captain Horatio McCallister kicks him out? Homer wasn't full so he goes to trial with his lawyer, claiming false advertising.
Well, that's actually happening in Wisconsin. Sort of. A 350 pound man named Bill Wisth is picketing with an illegible cardboard sign outside the restaurant because he was cut off after he ate 12 pieces of fish. He also has a longstanding tab with the restaurant, called Chuck's Place.
Wisth even called the police to complain that they didn't give him all he could eat, claiming it's false advertising. He won't stop picketing until the restaurant rethinks their policy, even though they offered him eight more pieces of fish to go.
I'm most impressed with the reporter Annie Scholz, who manages to keep her serious reporter face intact.

Recovery In Action
Where: Barnum Museum, 820 Main Street, Bridgeport
When: Thursday June 28 and Friday June 29
Back from the Brink! The Barnum Museum has been completely closed to the general public since January 2011 and the historic portion closed ever since the June 24, 2010 tornado hit Bridgeport. A unique exhibition called Recovery in Action will be presented on Thursdays and Fridays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the People's United Bank Gallery starting on April 26. Recovery in Action will allow visitors to gain insight into the complexities of a disaster recovery in a museum setting.
The Museum's collection of unique artifacts, including Tom Thumb's miniature carriages and P.T. Barnum's ornate furniture, will be among the many items on view. But instead of a traditional display, they will be shown in their "evacuation" spaces, where they were out loaded from the historic structure. Visitors will see how the Museum has devised a safe home for its collections while restoration of the historic building is underway. Although it will not be possible to take tours of the damaged building, visitors will often be able to observe a conservator at work on some of the artifacts that were damaged by the tornado, as well as see many items that have already received conservation treatments.
Visitors are asked to enter through the double doors at the back of the historic building, where it is connected to People's United Bank. The front doors are closed.

Portland, CT – July 7 and 8, 2012. It's back but in typical Brownstone style, it's better. The annual July party continues but this year it's even easier to grab the gang and head over to Brownstone for the day, evening or weekend.
"When families and friends are deciding where to go, we want Brownstone to be a no brainer" said Sean Hayes General Manager of Brownstone. "That's why this year we're offering a coupon for an all you can eat meal plan for $10.99, this is normally $24.95. We have special 2nd shift entry rates (after 4:00) on Saturday for folks that may have other plans during the day but still want to party at Brownstone and try night zip lining, movies and the beach party. And we've got discounts for any group of ten or more."
Old favorites return including the Top Dog Hot Dog eating contest. New features this year include free movie night, all you can eat meal plans for $10.99, volleyball and challenge course competitions and of course the newly introduced 2012 attractions round out an already amazing line up of fun and activity. New attractions include: increased ziplines (there are now 10) including triple racing lines, new beach area with volleyball, 2 new additional overhead wakeboard cables, 70' cargo net climb, expanded picnic areas, Guts & Glory obstacle course, new walking trails that lead to all activities within the park and a new cliff top picnic area with panoramic views of the park. Prizes will be awarded for the volleyball, Top Dog Hot Dog eating and Guts & Glory competitions.
Also new this year, every Saturday the park will remain open until 10 p.m. Guests can enjoy the free movie under the tent or try the thrill of night time ziplining. The "second shift" entry is now available from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturdays where guests save 25% on admission fees.

Los Angeles Mayor James K. Hahn, now into his third year in office and facing what is shaping up as a tough re-election bid, is not that kind of pol. He is friendly enough, but otherwise aloof and detached. When I've seen him at events, banquets and the like, he seems to prefer going only lightly noticed, a strange trait for the mayor of the second-largest city in the most populous state of the most powerful country on earth. Los Angeles, City of the Stars, has a mayor who shrugs off the spotlight.

As Chicago Fan has pointed out, the information on gun violence in the USA is not as strong as it should be because the NRA has been conducting a war on the facts. But just a little research on the matter by Slate and @GunDeaths has revealed the unbelievable size of the monster we face everyday in this country. An interactive map posted on Slate's site names 2,282 individuals who have been killed by guns since the Newtown massacre. This is just staggering. It's half of all American deaths during the entire Iraq War. That war lasted 8 years. Newtown happened two months ago. It's just boggles the mind like nothing else.
2,282 individuals who have been killed by guns since the Newtown massacre.How many slog posts about guns since the Newtown massacre?

Our inventory changes frequently so please check back soon or search. Some tires may be discontinued and not available.
Bridgestone Dueler A/T 695 LT265/70R17 Tire Specifications
This is the tire that handles tough road conditions without making you tough it out in the driver's seat. The on-road performance does not sacrifice mud and snow performance either. You have all-terrain capability, thanks to the bite of the tread design, along with technologies and compounds that work together to help deliver all the grip you'll ever need. Engineers have made the ride especially smooth and comfortable for you, even reducing the noise!
The TireTeam Difference
- We have over 200,000 new tires in stock. We do not sell 'seconds' or used tires.
- Orders received before 3pm EST M-F ship same day.
- Save on thousands of name brand and inexpensive tires when purchasing from a factory direct distributor.
- Interlocking tread notches helps deliver mud and snow traction.
- Round slanted grooves helps drainage to improve grip.
- 2-in-1 tread block design contributes to on-road stability and handling.
- Aggressive off-shoulder tread blocks adds extra bite in mud and snow.
- Open shoulder slots aids water evacuation for wet grip.
Please Note: Specifications of the Bridgestone Dueler A/T 695 tires shown above are listed to be as accurate as possible based on the information provided to us by Bridgestone tires.

Martyn Hazell outlines Dragons' Euro vision
10:20am Wednesday 7th August 2013 in Sport By Iwan Gabe Davies
NEWPORT Gwent Dragons chairman Martyn Hazell has outlined how qualifying for the Heineken Cup at the end of the coming season is the region's major objective.
The competition's future is in the balance and the Dragons chief hopes for an imminent compromise to keep the English and French in Europe's premier club tournament.
Hazell has also admitted that although season ticket sales are up on last year, the region has a difficult battle to be competitive in these harsh economic times.
But there has been much to cheer in recent months with the arrival of two popular coaches.
Director of rugby Lyn Jones and assistant Kingsley Jones, in charge of the forwards, are on board, while this week Toby Faletau signed a new deal.
The Wales and Lions star number eight has committed to the Dragons until May 2016.
It remains to be seen how a number of new signings, like veteran Wales scrum-half Richie Rees and hooker Rhys Thomas, will fare, as well as foreign imports such as Italy fly-half Kris Burton, Cheetahs lock Martin Muller, Pumas tighthead prop Francisco Nahuel Tetaz Chaparro from Stade Français, Fijian back-rower Netani Talei from Edinburgh and returning former favourite outside-half Jason Tovey who has left Cardiff Blues.
But there is an undeniable feel-good factor surrounding Rodney Parade at the moment.
Hazell is aiming for a mid-table league finish and a Heineken Cup spot next year, meaning they won't have to settle for the group stages of the inferior Amlin Challenge Cup, a tournament they again find themselves competing in for the coming campaign.
And while he admits there probably won't be any more signings for the coming season, Hazell thinks things are in place for the Dragons to achieve their short-term goals.
"We've pushed the boat out a bit (on new signings)," he said.
"We've got a fairly good squad now and we've put things in place – I'm optimistic.
"If we get half way up the table I'll be pleased. What we've got to do is get this Heineken Cup thing sorted. We're going into the new season with the competition not sorted out (for 2014/15). We hope to get into it for the season after next – that's our ambition.
"We've been out of the Heineken Cup for a couple of years now and let's hope we can get back into it. I hope we are going in the right direction."
On the challenging economic conditions, Hazell said: "We've sold a lot more season tickets than last year but season ticket sales, of course, are only a small proportion of your income.
"Sponsorship is what you want but we're in Newport and we are in a depression in Wales. It's not easy. People want to do it but they don't want to give any large sums, it's small sums.
"Financially we break even, so it's not too bad."

I arrived into Maui very late in the evening, and was a little nervous since I booked this condo on-line and wondered if the pictures were accurate. I was not disappointed at all. In fact, the pictures don't do the place justice! This condo is kept in immaculate condition. It's incredibly obvious that Frank and Sandy take great pride in... More
