"do another track it will sound crazy" Yes, yes it will...

F/S

"Eleven dead and a bucket with a head"

Not sure if it was the psychotropic augmentation, lack of sleep or maybe the second hand air-horn huff but the F/S set at the bowling alley Saturday was the most entertaining thing i've seen in awhile, certainly cementing into my head, a special place for this band. Their current rendition of retard hoedown was spectacular. At one point, I went to say something to Jenny and she was replaced with an old woman, complete with teased hair and bi-focals, laughing hysterically at Larry's dances. Then Terry played a solo.

I came home and listened to the record again, Jungle Music alone is worth the price of admission. I would post some kind of link but I am too lazy, you'll just have to go find this one yourself. Warning, listening to the F/S is likely to cause your IQ to drop. Ignorance may just be bliss.

Homemade Tomato Sauce #2 (Still way better than the jar)

Pint of cherry or grape tomatoes
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1/3 kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
2 tblsp olive oil
red wine

Heat the oil, toss in the garlic, saute gently on medium or lower, add the tomatoes and olives. Cook for 7 mins or so, smash half the tomatoes with a potato masher (BEWARE THEY WILL SQUIRT YOU IN THE FACE). Add the wine and cook for a few more mins.

I covered chicken with this but you can have it on pasta, bread, whateves... tasty! Time to chill and watch the daily show...good night. :)
