If you wanna improvise, play jazz.

Jerry's dead.

Phish sucks.

Get a job.

You had me dude until you brought that worthless band into it.

Fine working man songs?

What job did that junkie Jerry Garcia ever have?

Oh, that's right. He was the head of a corporation that ruthlessly
prosecuted any infringement upon any licensing rights that were potentially
profitable, but amateur tapes were OK.

Fine working man songs?

Check out "Just Like Darts" from the first Real Kids record.

I reread "Entropy" at the bar tonight. On with it please? I'll go back to
lurking 'til "Secret Integration". I promise no more anti-Bush diatribes.
