86. I can smell honeysuckle in w. asheville when I ride my People to work.

1. My mom’s favorite band is Red Hot Chili Peppers. And I have her copy of Woodstock soundtrack.

It is espresso, not expresso.

It is between you and me, not between you and I.

Driver License is singular, not plural. (Is NC the only state where a driver’s license is referred to as “them”? )

Hey, whoever can do this: please remove the word Warden from The Truck Parked At Pritchard Park.

No matter what it denotes. What it connotes is more important.

Oh, and the sculpture is too shiny.

  • bun e carlos is a great drummer
  • the packaging on gum has become obscenely elaborate. Have you ever opened a pack of Stride gum?
  • I disbelieve the Go-Gos actually intended for their international, multi-million dollar band name to indicate a possesive (and in the wrong place):
  • A.P.C has the Best Fish-n-Chips.
  • the bacon @ Sunny Point is better than most anywhere else.
  • the everything but bacon is better @ Stony Knob, far as brunch goes.
  • jazz violin is as romantic a sound as one may hear, save certain piano compositions. And by romantic we all mean sorrowful, do we not?
  • the 99 cent menu thing is a great way to fill one’s maw with silencers.
  • I will continue to eat 99 cent menu, occasionally, as I always have, because it is too goddamn hard to spend 30-90 minutes cooking, 20 minutes planning, and 20-60 minutes shopping, and – Oh!- 3X the cost, to go get shit at Greenlife (or Ingles) and cook it up. (Oh! 25 minutes cleaning!)
  • I am pissy
  • I am sweet
  • the cost for my new scooter is way less than I am paying for gas per month right now.
  • there are too many cops in north Asheville. There is no reason for north Asheville to be swimming with police.
  • the “news” has too little news and too much canned punditry
  • what is up with 900 different kinds of water?
  • Bon Scott was one of the greatest rock and roll singers known to mankind
  • I am making toaster oven freedom fries and look forward to tomorrow. thanks for listenin’ !
