I seem to remember a "guru" thing we'd do....pulling into half-assed lotus position and giving a peace sign while jumpin' up and in. I'll go with that.

A hippie boogie band channeling Howlin' Wolf, with a flatpicking solo.

I see there's a pool party in progress! I just ate so will have to wait a half hour before joining. I'll just sit here under the umbrella and apply sun block liberally.
