I realize that this is a bit late, or early, but apropos Coultondays past and future, I thought I would mention this:

@Colin and Angi: I’m just to your north in Robertson County. I’m worried about you and all the other residents of Nashville. Here’s hoping that the waters recede soon.

Colin – I think those of us in Nashville need a do over of this great holiday.

The floods certainly put a damper on my participation in the First of May Olympics. Guess my husband and I will have keep on training for next year’s event.

Well my first of May consisted of drowning here in the floods of Nashville. It was quite unfortunate, especially considering the actual devastation that occurred because of all this. Guys, spread the word. Things here in Nashville and the surrounding areas are NOT GOOD and very little is being done about it aside from the people of Nashville themselves.

In other news, there are Piranha swimming around loose in the flooded hallways of the Opry Mills Mall just next door to the Grand Ole Opry. lolz

Wish everyone agreed with you about celebrating May 1st non-violently. Some anarchists here in Santa Cruz decided to ruin it.

Is it okay to celebrate this holiday in solitude?

By: Charlotte

Damn JoCo… I bet you didn’t think that song could make someone cry… My late father greeted every May first singing 1st. of May 1st of May, out door fucking starts today… or at least as far as he could get before my mother elbowed him. (“first of May first of May, Out.. Ow! ) Thanks. Just wish I could send it to him

I didn’t mean to start a flame war, folks…it was all in jest…

Either relax and don’t take what you read on the Internet so seriously, or just get a life, fercryinoutloud…

Quite frankly, I know that it’s none of my business (or any of yours!) what Jonathan’s political views are…my comment was just a tongue-in-cheek thing…

Don’t make mountains out of molehills, folks!

So… Most ppl only go up to about 99 degrees f and you started cooking your pork butts on your girl yesterday …. I’m all for low and slow, but I don’t see it hitting safe internal temps before the sun starts to supernova or at least comes up with some fatal flarage. Pit grills is for pork, my Yankee friend.

In fairness to early commenters, the asterisk wasn’t there originally – I added it when it became clear I needed it. I’m sorry I said anything about the president, I forget evryone’s still so touchy.

Ser.iou.sly people! Can’t we just be friends today?

Today is a happy day, a day for doing things…with people…in places…

A day for merry bipartisanship…if you catch my drift

it is true that i was kind of *perky* over the date until i emailed my friend-in-joco-fandom a may day wish for ‘celebrations suitable to the occasion.’

when he broke my heart by replying ‘sounds like a curse,’ i knew i needed a new friend in joco-fandom.

so, step right up, folks! i will be taking offers until i receive an offer.

(if it helps, i’m going to the park later, and i could bring an ant-free blanket)

Hey Luther, I think the asterisk was inserted later for people like JoAnn and Brandon who don’t understand irony (btw, JoAnn, thanks so much for telling us what “TEA” stands for — I had NEVER heard that before*). And since when did JoCo “publish his political views”? It was just a joke, Luther.

Oh, how I love you, first of May!

I liked JoCo more when he didn’t publish his political views. At least he’s not preachy or put any kind of message in his songs.

Also the Asterisk wasn’t there at the start.

My birthday is May 1, so being able to grab a copy of this song live is an awesome present to myself.

Also…I saw you at Toads in New Haven, CT and you put on a great live show.

Looking forward to your return!

Wow, I noticed that too, Brandon. *Hands JoCo a nice cup of TEA* Should I be saying “Welcome to the party”?

JoCo said:
“This is a free country, or at least it was until Obama was elected”

Hmmm…is Obama no longer “pretty excellent so far”?

It’s still April here.

I can’t wait until morning (nothing’s better than a fresh scone with a cup of house blend).
