Squash and Nightly, in one stroke you've swept the rarities sweeps. the shel stuff is downloading as we speak. i just check in on a sat morn before going to work and you two are at it, digging up tasty bones from the great back yard of music history. the song about the chick who won't take the garbage out was always a favorite of my kids, who are now in their late 20s. nightfly, if you're ever up in CT, i'll wash your car. squash, could i repay you in russell crowe rarities? old broken telephones, the hotel clerk's tooth chip, stuff like that? thanks, guys..........

I'm pretty sure tooth chips won't get through quarantine down here

But I could be tempted with a car wash as drought imposed water restrictions means I can't use the hose - only a bucket

.
A post script to the Ned Kelly stuff - who do you think was the composer for the film? Yep, one Shel Silverstein

I was thinking the same thing..Squash has proven the old adage
life is a circle and sometimes it's very funny as well..
