Now that I have broadband, I've been surfing...

Remember, when I did my Post for "Blogging Against Disablism Day"? ...I wrote about a dream I'd had where difficulty walking was part of a larger motif of imagination and self-idenity.

Anyway, in the set-up of that dream I outlined trying to get into a small meeting house where there was to be a party in my honor.

What I did not mention in that post was that the meeting house in question was the Beacon Sloop Club. I can't sleep, again, tonight this morning, and I got homesick for it... So, on a whim, I put "Beacon Sloop Club" in YouTube's search window.

And I found a video of a party being held there in someone's honor -- for Pete Seeger's 90th Birthday.

So now, you can see the inside of the building I talked about being in my dreams -- and what a party there is kind of like:



Lyrics, as far as I can make them out:

"...Come look what Pete has done:
gone one more time around the sun:
Ninety Times around the sun --
Happy Birthday -- let's have fun!
Everybody look what Pete has done:
Gone ninety times around the sun!
(???) Billion miles around the sun!
Everybody look what Pete Seeger has done:
Gone (???) Billion Miles around the sun!
(...Reprieve)
[Bum-ba-ba Boom Boom
Boom, Boom!]"
