    kids today use the word schnockered

    I did have a habit of going to local shows in small clubs in Minneapolis...

    Some of those folks have some attire, I tell you what.

    And now you're getting glasses too. Make sure you get the thick black (or white!) frames. :)

    The folks writing fortunes for fortune cookies these days are phoning it in. This was my "fortune" : "Truth. Can you handle the truth?"

    Really?

    Perhaps what I said wasn't quite accurate, though it could have easily turned into one

    Anyway, I'm about halfway across the street, in the crosswalk...

    This dick just drives through it as I'm walking... I screamed "FUCKING EXCUSE ME"

    Well, he heard it, pulled around to where I was parked...

    Then he's like "So did you think I was going to hit you?"

    "Yeah asshole, it was pretty fucking close."

    "You're a big guy, I think I could see you." (Like that was my point, you don't fucking plow through a cross walk as people are walking it. Lots of little kids with their mothers and that sort of shit at the grocery store)

    So I just said... "well, fuck you too."


    And that was that. I was a little sad he didn't step out of his car. I probably could have agitated him more, but what's the point?

    that`s good that cooler heads prevailed, it`s really not worth it

    I have been there many times with strangers, and no assault charges yet because cooler heads prevailed :D

    My new assistant at work is so talkative. For every word coming out of my mouth, she's got a story back to tell me. Which is interrupted by phones, job, people coming in and out but still told at the end. I am literally afraid to utter a word, not to hear anymore of those stories. And she's only 24 years old.
    What's your part, who you are?

    2012: Arras, Berlin 1-2
    2013: Sao Paulo, Buenos Aires
    2014: Milano, Trieste, Vienna, Berlin
    2016: NY MSG 1

    Cav must have used all of his energy for our trip last weekend. He is lying in bed with a bad cold now. My chicken soup didn't help last night :(
    I'm having shots of apple cider vinegar several times a day ( :sick: ) and pop vitamin c pills hoping it doesn't get to me :|
    We need to be fit for next weekend!!!

    That sucks. :( But at least it's between shows for you guys. Don't forget the echinacea!! That combined with the Vit C can help. :)
