from the best play ever

PHIL
On the way out of Albany
we stopped at Joe's Eat All You Want restaurant ($1.50).
Just for dessert Steve Paxton had five pieces of pie.
I asked the cashier on the way out:
how do you manage to keep this place in business?
Most people, she said rather sadly,
don't eat as much as you people.
Near the Grand Canyon
we found a lodge in a meadow surrounded by a forest
near the north rim of the canyon.
We were so comfortable there.
Fireplaces and good food.
Steak, salad, and Irish whiskey.
North of Seattle
we stopped at a place in the middle of the forest
that advertised homemade pies.
Some of us had two pieces.
Blackberry.
While we were there, some other customers came in
and ordered pie.
"I'm sorry: we don't have any more."

Eat
in any municipal, state or national park is my advice.
Build fires: broil steaks or chickens
roast vegetables in foil with butter, salt, and pepper.
Fill a large wooden bowl with salad greens you've collected.
Heavy cream, lime, salt, and mushroom catsup,
olive oil, lemon juice, chives (or shallots),
potato salad,
corn on the cob,
ice cream with chocolate sauce
red raspberries.
Ginger ale and beer.
Dark beer.
A big kettle full of chili.
Peanut butter.
Dill pickles.
Rare roast beef, mustard on the side
smoked salmon and cream cheese
A sandwich of beef, ham, lettuce, tomato with Russian dressing.
Garlic.
Whenever anyone mentions they are going to put garlic in a dish
I always hope the cloves will be large.

Just....let it happen.

Erin and I opened a sister store to SlinkyCalhoun a few weeks ago-- where we're selling only Twin Peaks-themed items! The Great Northern was recently featured in the sweeeeeeet indie craft blog Extreme Craft. Here's the post. I can't resist the title.....this guy's as nerdy as we are.

Make a LOLcat!

My mom sent me this picture of the ever-adorable Slinky. It needs a LOLcaption. LOLcat-tion? DO IT.

Electric Crazy

Apparently the facilities manager for the Schenec School District is batshit insane and since being arrested on the 20th of February, has been shuttled around from jail to jail. He's nuts. They found this memo that he wrote to a newly-hired employee, and it is amazing. I hope this is big enough to read and enjoy.

Erin and I got tired of looking at our old store, so we made a new one, selling only Twin Peaks-themed stuff. Check it out! (After all...the owls are not what they seem.)
