A good job he didn't check the fourth patient:

Then pray us let that it may come,
(As it will for a' that come,)
That Sense  o'er a' the earth and worth,
Shall the gree that bear doon in the wids.
For a' that, an' a' that,
for a' that an' that an this an' th'other.
Where's that moose an a' that?

He was suffering from terrible burns!

Howdy All,

Hearkening back to a side discussion about favourite dance music in the "Most Irritating Pop Songs" topic.....  I found my copy of "Deeper Shades of Hooj" (Mark, it wasn't Vol 2 or 3 after all, but the original.... I thought that the Vol 2 I downloaded didn't sound like what I was remembering? :o).  I am absolutely stoked.  Got it on loud in my headphones at the moment while typing this.  SO cool to be listening to it again.  I have definitely missed it.  ;D 8)

So..... I'm so happy at present.  It is also the end of 4 days of hell at work with holiday shopping in the nursery, with the next 3 days off..... always a good reason to celebrate!  ;)  Tired (very) but happy.  The music definitely helps.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Cheers.

In case there are any Richard Thompson fans following this thread (and I know you are out there), RT released an album of new material the other day.  The twist this time is that the album was recorded live during a mini-tour of the west coast of the US last February, at five different venues from Seattle to San Francisco.  My luck is that one of the shows was right here in Eugene, at a small community arts center, and I was able to attend.  It was a great show, and he was playing with an excellent four-piece backing band, so the album is worth checking out if you are a Richard Thompson fan.

It's a long time since we had this Richard Thompson discussion but............... I've just got his latest album "Electric" and it is out of this world!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've heard one or two songs from the new RT album on our local community radio station, I'll have to check out the entire album.
