All I want to say about yesterday's hellish trip to a neurology office


My poor mom was at the neurologist's yesterday. It was terrible. No one is any worse, though. Just the trip itself. Call any of my friends I bothered about this yesterday for details; I'm too wiped out to type it all out.


BUT!:



Don [closing WebMD magazine in waiting room]: "Can I ask you
something?"

Me: "Sure..?"

D: "What's a 'Facebook'?"

Me: "What's a Facebook...well, do you know what a web site is?"

D: "No."

Meanwhile, in Minnesota:


Hmm...

RLPC, Week 1, part 4

Back in 2005, I and this* junkie friend of mine went to Chicago to see Mike. For some reason we had this stuffed dog with us, and called it "B." Found it Saturday as I was de-crapping the Volvo pre-disposal (more tomorrow on this, gentle reader) and brought to Recording Rooms. Promptly re-christened Dunt. So here we have the Dunt/Gassett Band:

















* went with the full Caulfield here. Sorry.

RLPC, Week 1, Part 3

Ian justifies his lunch!
















Duke/Dan/Dutch snags some carbs for the first time since his accident!
















"Why did this have to happen to me?" ponders an annoyed/bespooked/saddened/put-upon Commandant Derl:


RLPC, Week 1, Part 2

Look! It's one of those uber-hackneyed shots of gear strewn about. All that's missing is Todd Rundgren in cranberry hip-huggers and DICK DENY [an anagram!] on the kick drum.

Rock LP construction week 1, part 1

Here's where all the woodshedding has been taking place...the Alvarez is the one where Morgan and I went in the car with my dad to buy it at Ace and my dad did not know we were high as frig? We also had a plastic beetle with us that made a high-pitched chirping noise, which was unhearable to Don in the face of his howitzer-assisted nerve deafness. Morgan kept saying "It knows! It knows!"


Anyway, that guitar.

Telecaster in purple and white = GO [VAN BUREN] KNIGHTS!


"I can see Ohio, Columbus"

Speaking of the brain-damaged Picci, she thought she was eating some mesclun greens on Friday but accidentally ate mescaline.

First she said she was "in a Whole Foods."

When were you ever in a Whole Foods?

"When ah lived in Columbus..." [woozy pause]

???

Aftermath/day after:
