morning thoughts

[wickedflea]

Hey, does anyone have a copy of the Playboy from last month or so that had an article on Hunter S. Thompson? Would you be willing to part with it? You can even tear out the centerfold if it's a sticking point. In fact, if it's, um, a sticking point, then I really don't want it.

Dammit. The organist at some baseball game I was watching this weekend was playing the Violent Femmes (?!?), so now I have "Raisin in the Sun" in my head. It could've at least been "Add it Up."

I'm back at work. I should've taken a picture of myself this morning--I hadn't bothered to shave in about ten days, so I had a totally stylin', patchy, 16-year-old redneck beard goin' on. If I hadn't had a haircut recently, I would've looked like the Unabomber's neglected manchild.

Health-food stores always amaze me. How do the hippies afford to eat? You can't get a jar or a box or a bottle of anything in one of those places for less than about $7.50. I mean, I guess they save by not buying soap, but damn.

Goddamn hippies and their unbleached coffee filters and smelly pits.

Did you get the Rolling Stone issue with the massive Thompson tribute in it? I'm sure you did. I think I spent about three hours reading it cover to cover. And I think I accidentally left it at my old apartment in California. Still, great issue, get it if you haven't.

Yep, I got that one! Excellent read, and I'm going to try to keep mine in good condition.

Egad, I just realized that I wrote, "You can even tear out the sticking point." What I MEANT to write was, "You can even tear out the centerfold if it's a sticking point." Would have made the joke that followed make a lot more sense, huh?

I understood what you meant, and I'm sure everyone else did too. I think "Tear out the sticking point" is funny. Also a good name for an album. Every page in a used Playboy tends to be a sticking point that should be torn out anyway. And burned.

Heh. Heh.

Nope, didn't see.

And soap? Still cheap, hippies. Two words: DR. BRONNER'S. Biodegradable, and you'll smell minty-fresh!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, what a slip that was. Raisin in the Sun, indeed.

I stopped going to a health food store around here because they kept raising their prices. Also, I wondered how long some of their frozen foods have been sitting there. I remember seeing pumpkin ice cream 6 months after Christmas. (It's only made from Halloween through New Year's or so.)
