,in all honesty, I wanted to go down and submitt some more 'Nerdy Names',..
we were playing in the sun yesterday,..
my mind wandered, wondered,..
met up with some more Nerds,
somewhere,
where ever that 'place' is(?),..
the mind wanders...

,but!
it's not everyday you scribe your 500th's.
Actually, I've been contemplating it for three days now...
My Partner,.. "life support unit",.. Monika, said,
"Ahh your 500th,.. use it to apolgise for your past 499!"

I see it like this:
for me, a Post is,.. Personal Online Self-Therapy.
I can come, write, frustrate, dream, scratch, labber,...
when I write,.. I'm quiet,..
maybe seven other 'Street interested',.. 'Magic interested',....will read it,..
smirk,.. maybe smile,.. maybe drop their own thought.., dream, frustration

To talk about the Knowledge I've pulled out of the Café,
would be superfluous(!).,,
here, on the Sidewalk Shuffle,.. the experience,.. the in-experience,.. the thoughts,.. Great!
(When Kosmo released his 'Tails of the Streets', co-conspirateer Danny Hustle told me,
"Read the Sidewalk Shuffle,.. it's ALL in their.")
Learning 'Coins' from Marion Boykins(!),..
what an honour...

,but I don't want to talk about the 500,000 I've read,..
Someone once said, "So-and-so has written SO many Post!??!,.. Why?"
my Answer, They probably needed it.
My 499, I can surely say,.
"YOU surely didn't need 'em as much as I!"

,so,.. for my 500th,
I'd just like to say,
"Thanks for the space,.
the 14 open ears.
And,... yeah,.
thanks for yours.

give it easy,
Gallagher Hayes

Hey Gallagher! I always enjoy reading your comments on life on the road--and life in general!

See you "down the road"!

You have a very high signal to noise ratio, I look forward to your posts.

Happy "Anniversary" Mr. Hayes. You truly are one in a billion.

Looking forward to the next 500 posts.

My hope is that you continue to post. I'd also like to hear Monika's side of some of your stories!
