"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

So is Dirt the opening theme song? We were wondering if it's two tunes that are layered or if it's just one that was digitally altered with both tunes in it (the Everly Brothers "Dream"). Not sure that I'm saying it right but my husband thought the Every Brothers mix was a separate track and I thought it was one tune mashed up.

Sausage barn is like a sausage parm, but 1) it's big--really really big--you can ride a horse drawn carriage right into it. 2) people eat sausage barns, but nobody actually enjoys eating them 3) absolutely no electricity in the sausage barn! sausage conducts electricity even when dried out! 4) dried cabbage is a south Massachusetts thing, and they use it only for the doors

I have hummus, pita chips, and carrots for lunch during the work week. It's just simple and convenient that I don't have to think about it. Plus I don't have to queue up at the microwave oven or anything.

I do indulge myself with cookies for an afternoon snack either Tate's or Lenny & Larry's.
