Incidentally, somebody wanted to know if Janis Joplin would ever come by with the holding company.
Uh, I, I, I don't know.

There's a dog gone busy, but if ever they do, they know
the door is wide open.
We'd love to have him.
This is a song, of course, by Big Brother and
the holding company, Peace of My Heart.
