I pushed the wrong button and there's no turning back. This blog delves into the mind of a Wisconsin wild woman (by day a newspaper reporter) at the half-century mark, keeping hippie dreams alive. It always comes back to the same quest for Neil Young, so don't let my wayward musings fool you. Rust never sleeps.

People, how could I resist.??????????
The Rust List, which is the biggest Neil Young Internet community with a cast of thousands, invited "Rusties" to pose a New Year's Resolution for Neil.
How, tell me how to just keep quiet, not be a fool for the man. "Stop acting 14," I tell myself.
Alas, it's a hopeless cause. Roll your eyes all you want, I can't see you!
Re:1a. Re: New Years resolutions for Neil
Neil, who has been wondering about his soul mate in the back of his mind for some 40 years now....
you know the one....the girl he dreams about but has never met...
the girl he sings all the songs about but could not find ... so he settled for Pegi... (aka Peg-eye)...
not saying she ain't nice, but there's still this girl stuck in Neil's head... wild and freaky hair, blue eyes, slightly overweight, one discolored tooth in the front, spills things daily...the image is stuck in his head...
One night he's playing Milwaukee, a warm summer night on Lake Michigan...
There's a full moon, a soft breeze coming off the lake, it's one of his favorite spots....
He's always energized in Milwaukee, feels these wild, crazy vibes but doesn't know why...
Suddenly he sees a face in the audience, a face he never saw before because she never had front row seats before... but this time she does.....
His fingers freeze about the strings and for a brief second lightning courses through him...
His breath won't come, his eyes are locked on the face....
of
the
girl
from
his
dreams...............
