Weed and work are a bad mix for me. I've got some sore muscles from a long hike yesterday. Let's see what this beer does... the Argento set's already working wonders. And I'll save you all the embarrassment of reporting on any erections.

It's OK not to be a Dead head.
Don't hate it myself, but would never choose to play it.

The quintessential american band apparently.

Sally, I've never been anti-GD per se. Just never understood the fervor. Getting there though. Slowly. Jeff C's show helped. And I'm pretty jealous about that Uriah Heep show!

I mean, this sounds nice. But I’m going to explore them more thoroughly one day. I did that with Steely Dan and suddenly really appreciate them. It took listening is all.
