Been listening and watching last nite's Daily Show (with Huge Jack-man). BOS mshray's dad.

Mark's dad (a minister) was nicknamed "Sky Pilot" back in the day.
back in the day we'd just moved to Falls Church VA, after my bros & I were all born in San Mateo. We lived in a cottage on an acre+ of land, and the house had been added onto & modified in a rather slapdash fashion over the years. Among several anomalies it had a basement that had been dug out years later, which could only be accessed from outside. My dad decided that this would be a great place to let the church youthgroup set up their own coffee house (it was 1967 after all). They decorated it themselves, which meant black lights & day-glo paints. On the left hand (West) wall as you descended the steps was a life-size image of the Dead's Keep On Truckin' dude:
Facing you on the North wall was a floor-to-ceiling maze, with Saturn in the center, including a dead end that involved an actuall hole in the wall that was big enough to stick your thumb in, which had the notation "Here lies the body of Che." On the right hand was a depiction of the cover of Led Zeppelins' first album:
and on the rear (South) wall was a similar floor-to-ceiling copy of Jefferson Airplane's
