anyone?




This one's really a mystery to me. It was found on the street in Chicago, on the day when Dean's grocery store burned down and Kaki was in town. We had just picked up a replacement guitar for her show in the MRammerMobile, and there was a huge plume of smoke in the neighborhood. We decided to investigate on foot and found this on the sidewalk. Just like that - a ziploc bag, with a crumpled piece of brown paper in it, and just one word: CRUSH.

Speaking of Kaki, I had this bizarre dream the other night where I was in a college-style cafeteria, as though it was being shot for a Wes Anderson film: all lit with deep goldenrod and dark blue and diner-like polished chrome. No one was there to eat yet, but the people working there had the food out. Kaki was behind the counter wearing her hip glasses and one of those fast-food-style paper hats. She was serving deep-fried fish sandwich squares with long, silver tongs, holding up the fish and yelling, "Fish! Fresh Fish!" heavy with sarcasm. Maybe it's because I saw Barton Fink recently?

I think either I'm sleeping too little or too much...
