Christ ya know it aint' easy

I hate the holidays.

I bought a 18pack case of Budweiser (yes-I am Long Island white trash) on Friday and finished it by Saturday night.

I bought some DVD's (Every Mad Max movie, escape from new york, the punisher), I watched the Jets lose, I watched the beer vanish. I watched my life become even more pathetic.

I bought lots of new kitchen equipment...expensive knives, cutting boards, spices, gray salt from the French coast....I immerse myself in cooking...and eating...and drinking..and eating more. For the first time in my life I can pinch an inch. My six pack is fading because of all the 18pack $10.99 per case on sale at Waldbaum's.

Next think ya know I'll start watching Nascar.

[Tom]

and when ya coming home Cutch??

I am going through serious Pape withdrawals.

[martino]

but snake plisskin always helps, never hurts. same with bud.

and when you have a good collection of kitchen knives all you need is some friends over for good cooking.

McCutcheon is flying back to NYC on the 28th, late he said. I was gonna agree to come up on the 29th for the New Year but I just can't right now. I did, however, join a new gym so I can get rid of the inch that can be pinched.

They have one of those budget carriers (independence air) flying out of our nearby airport now so flights up to DC & NYC are quite cheap ... $150 to NYC thru JFK. So I'll likely come up within the next couple of months pending enough folks will have enough time off to do some things. I don't wanna wander around the city while everyone is working.

[mccutcheon]

I fly home tomorrow. I can't wait to be back in NYC and get back on the wagon and hang with Tom and email flirt with Luna (something I can only do in Manhattan for some reason- it is her giggle I think and not the fact my email only works in that city) but right now I have a Kyle on the couch and it's time to make a new fire. Last night some people got a few inches pinched. Not me, I was very well behaved and was too busy cookin' all night long. Fondue was great! Fondue for all! Fondue for Tom and Luna! They could both use some melted cheese. You know how it is with the very beautiful people. You want to make sure they are human just like us.

[Tom]

Thanks for the hospitality last night MC. I was too stoned to get rowdy drunk, which was a good thing. Take care.

[Sloth]

NASCAR is a censored word, yeah.

[bfj]

yes mc, thanks for the hospitality. I'm learning slowly what happened to about four hours of my life that I'm missing. and i've got terrible bruises and my hip ain't feeling so well. Very sorry if i caused any trouble or made to much noise and that kyle... clever guy, hiding my shoe and trying to kiss my lady friend...

[Tom]

***** is a censored word, yeah.

An ode to NASCAR

Oh...
You corporate sponsored
blue collar bud drinking
viagra popping
MACHINE.

Spin those wheels
burn that rubber
SUCK me in
to your fast hard world

OH!
But what is this?
I am forbidden
to bite your gasoline laden
piece of fruit.

Because of one man
who took..the pleasure away.
One censoring SLOTHERING mother
mother of all fuckers

Slothers-
oh the injustice.
oh the inhumanity
You take..you take
and you ask for far too much

Give me back my NASCAR.
Give me back my dignity.
Give me back those SIX letters
that make up the word

OF ALL WORDS
The letters of LIFE

The spice must flow.
The dream must return.

[Tom]

Hey Martino-

It all comes down to Snake.

I watched it last night..

and then afterwards watched Elizabeth (Cate Blanchett is SO great in this movie..)

I am a man of extremes...It could be Dolph Lundgren one minute, and Voltaire the next

Hey! you got your chocolate in my peanut butter!
