Garbage Eater
I've eaten some of the strangest things
Since the time I became a man.
I've chewed on jars of old bent nails,
Used screws---once a garbage can.
Brass handles, melted candles,
Rubber erasers with Castrol chasers,
Broken 'biners, various cleaners,
Cross-country wax, green Kelty packs.
Their red packs make me sick,
And my steps get really quick.
I've gone that route before,
Won't go there any more.
What taste the best are old guitars
Prepared with broken Mason jars,
Or road maps found in old used cars,
Or jerky that was dried on Mars.
But the country's going to hell real soon,
We've been fooled by an orange buffoon.
I've made a switch to raw asparagiss,
Excuse me now, I need to piss.

One more Facebook ripoff, this from Rick Sylvester, who stole it from someone else, who likely couldn't name the source, but WTF, here it is.Of course, it's real easy to go to Rick's page and check it out, but you shall never prosper.

Photo actually not made in Hollywood, but Soho, London.Day In the Life.
He's turned into a fish-eater, too, now.
Whatever's next for our Alex?
The Mobil in Lee Vining?
going mainstream
means trading in the footholds for red carpets for some
means learning when not to wear hiking boots
means finding a steady job but not forsaking your passion
means a lot more, certainly, but the car pool is here

And you should all have something for your mantels.
Make a copy, go to Staples, find a frame. Winner!

Klay Thompson broke the single-game record for 3-pointers, finishing with 14 the other night and sported this jersey in a interview thereafter with Isaiah.

The true history of "420" — the global code for marijuana — started with a treasure map, five teenage boys, a rogue Coast Guardsman and a lucky connection with the Grateful Dead. And, of course, some bud.
Canna-sseurs worldwide have been celebrating April 20 (April 20 equals 420 in date form. Catch up, folks.) for decades, most of them not knowing why that date specifically was the chosen holiday for stoners.
Rumors started that 420 was originally a marijuana-related police code (even though it never was) or that it was somehow tied to Hitler's birthday (What?), but it turns out that there's a more likely, credible story out there.
A group of five men, who call themselves the Waldos, have made it their task every April to set the record straight.
"We had no idea we were making history, it was just an inside joke," said Dave Reddix, one of the Waldos.

Consisting of two wall-spanning wooden shelving units stacked with cassette tapes, the presentation looks like something you might have found at a college radio station in the 1980s, but it actually speaks to a music obsession far greater than that: each unit contains a wildly comprehensive (if still partial) collection of over 3,000 Grateful Dead bootleg tapes, recorded between the band’s founding in 1965 to its end with Jerry Garcia’s fatal heart attack in 1995.
