you really can't beat Floyd for just tuning out the rest of the world.

Wish You Were Here and Dark Side of the Moon are awesome for that.

 
^^^ My stepson heard me listening to Wish You Were Here. It has inspired him to learn to play it on his guitar.

I am glad there are times that I can supply a modicum of positive reinforcement in his life. :)

Floyd's one of my favorite all-time bands, but I'm too young to have seen them in concert. There was a cover band called "The Machine" based out of suburban NY that was as close to dead on as I've ever seen a tribute band. I used to see them regularly. They rocked!

 
FWIW: I'm pold enough that I saw Floyd during thier tour for the "Animals" album. It was pretty cloudy (indoors).

The Pink Floyd laser show at the Boston aquarium was a treat, also.

 
Bob and the Blonde

Bob, a handsome dude, walked into a sports bar

around 9:58 PM.

He sat down next to a blonde at the bar and stared

up at the TV.

The 10:00 PM news was coming on.

The news crew was covering a story of a man on a

ledge of a large building

preparing to jump.

The blonde looked at Bob and said, "Do you think

he'll jump?"

Bob says, "You know, I bet he'll jump. "

The blonde rep lied, "Well, I bet he won't."

Bob placed a $20 bill on the bar and said, "You're

on!"

Just as the blonde placed her money on the bar, the

guy on the ledge did a

swan dive off the building, falling to his death.

The blonde was very upset, but willingly handed her

$20 to Bob, saying,

"Fair's fair.

Here's your money."

Bob replied, "I can't take your money, I saw this

earlier on the 5 PM news

and so I knew he would jump."

The blond replied, "I did too; but I didn't think

he'd do it again."

 
A guy walks into the local welfare office to pick up his check.

He marched straight up to the counter and said, "Hi. You know,

I just HATE drawing welfare. I'd really rather have a job."

The social worker behind the counter said, "Your timing is excellent.

We just got a job opening from a very wealthy old man who wants a

chauffeur and bodyguard for his beautiful daughter. You'll have to

drive around in his Mercedes and he'll supply all of your clothes.

Because of the long hours, meals will be provided. You'll be expected to

escort the daughter on her overseas holiday trips and you will have to

satisfy her sexual urges. You'll be provided a two- bedroom apartment

above the garage. The salary is $200,000 a year."

The guy, wide-eyed, said, " You're bull****tin' me!"

The social worker said, "Yeah, w el l . . . you started it."
