Thank you very much for posting that link Chuck ... I am still devastated ... and I never even met Skip in person ... but I will treasure his "cyber" friendship forever ...

Thinking of Skip and family every day.
With peace to all

"Is that a real poncho or is that a Sears poncho?"

I wrote this about 15 years ago, and I could not think of another way to honor Skip's memory.
The really old timers will recognize all of the references.
RIP Skipper.
Captskip (sung to Billy Joel's Captain Jack)
Christmas Day and you're hammocking around
Sherry's tired of you wearing her nightgown
You'd not like to find a worm in your cuervo gold
Or so we're told
So you go to the store in your really tight jeans
And lustfully stare at the hardwood beams
It's like some new home-decorating magazine
and you're in style
But Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
And take you to the digital island
Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
Just a little push on play and you'll be smiling
La da da, oh yeah yeah
Your long-lost twin sister Kenny is on a date
And you just sit home and contemplate
That zoom zoom zoom is gonna come but do you really hate
That fhocking sound
So you stood on the corner in your old disco clothes
And you looked so dainty with the mustache neath your nose
But still the desert dust is getting in your Bose
Don't forgot what wire is ground
But Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
And take you to the digital island
Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
Just a little push on play and you'll be smiling
La da da, oh yeah yeah
So you decided to take a bath today
You got your mini disc and your cafe ole
Ah, but there's no place for you to sashay
On the newly laid harwood floor
You've got nothing brand new but everything's cool
They've just found the missing master tape on its spool
And you guess you won't be wearing any disco jewels
Those you abhor
But Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
And take you to the digital island
Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
Just a little push on play and you'll be smiling
La da da, oh yeah yeah
So you play your new audio cd and you pave your lot
And you meet your Swiss friends out where it's hot
Oh, but still you ache for communal showers--Sherry says not
It was wrong
And if you can't buy that the analog world is so dead
And why you've got to keep in style, no more Ampeg
Well, you're fifty-six and so must convert to book of red
for a cleaner song
But Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
And take you to the digital island
Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
Just a little push on play and you'll be smiling
Yeah, Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight
Yeah, Captskip will get you hi-fi tonight

"Is that a real poncho or is that a Sears poncho?"

listening to another Capt. Skipper show today.

I thought it most appropriate on Veteran's Day to thank Skip for his service in Vietnam and to remember a very special man on this day. And, it was because of his service to country and how his men responded to him, that all of us became to know him as, Captain Skipper.
Skip, as many do, I miss you so much, each and every day.

Hoping Skip and Dan are in some deep discussion about music with each other tonight.

Thanks for posting 71. Always good times with Skip and Dan. While we all carry on, things aren't quite the same without either of them. Peaceful thoughts to all their family, friends, and loved ones. "Rock N' Roll will never die."
