You know neither of us watch or look at our wedding stuff. It was just terrible. The marriage is a bit fucked now too, but that's normal after all these years.. But that day was the usual fuck up. It can never live up to expectations.. And others trying to stick the boot in didn't help. And they did. But I didn't pay for it and didn't want the fuss. But my bride did (the fuss bit). And we wanted each other. So Hey Ho!

So Hey Ho! Our wedding was not without mishap. The worst idea we had was cooking the food for the reception the night before at our studio apt with a friend. Bad idea. After shoveling a bunch of coke in his nose the next morning, our friend put out an amazing array of good food the next day, it all worked out I guess. Very little we cooked the night before was great, and we got about 3 hours sleep. Always a good idea before a big event.

When I was young, my drug of choice was sugar, in its various insidious forms. What I loved the most was candy from Chinatown. Candied ginger, coconut and melon. You had to go there to get it and I prodded my grandparents to make the trip across town. You can get candied ginger pretty easily these days. I have not seen candied melon for 50 years, it may still exist. It was wonderful and juicy. Candied coconut was the least of the three.

Were Simon and Garfunkle doing Gallagher cosplay?

Reorganizing some of the cds. XTC has been relocated to a more accessible place and other adjustments continue. Hours of fun.
I have 15 cds by The Chameleons UK. Impressive considering they only put out 4 studio albums (the rest being live shows, radio broadcasts, demos etc.)

Can you explain to us Americans what the fuck a paid holiday is?

Err... Statutory paid holidays? Paid public holidays? You receive a regular day's wages on those days; and if you must work, you receive time-and-a-half or double time. What -- you don't have those in Ohio?

The mall I work at is under new ownership, so I didn't have to work on Easter for the first time in a decade. We have never gotten time-and-a-half for Easter. Fucking bullshit.
