like martha..these are good things...


actually she seems like a bit of a tyrant and a big old bitch but...she's gotten rich being that way so....good on her.
i just wanted to lay a couple of things on ya. good things. things to consider as you raom around town looking for mr. goodbar or whatever it is you're looking for. or nothing.
i've mentioned the lemonaide at anona on main but it deserves a mention again as do the brownies and pumpkin tarts. tornack almost had a meltdown when he ate the brownie there.
the new silver jews cd is excellent if you don't listen too closely or maybe even better that way. i really like it and listen to it almost every day. as do i the new greg dulli album. the former afghan whigs and current twilight singers frontman delivers a new album, amber headlights, that are actually songs he shelved a while back. he had a rough period there, friends dying, drinking, drugs and ...shit, it sounds like some of my friends' lives..maybe they should put out albums. anyhow, the opening track is a killer. the death from above 1979 remix album is sure to make you happy as well...and for those of you in a retro mood you can always check out the new wilco live album. i say retro because a double live album just spells 70's...
the eggs florentine at the grove on denman is always a good choice for those of you who dig eggs and lots of sauce. i was thinking of the grove yesterday because xmas is coming and i have breakfast there every xmas morning, feel free to join me. mark it on your day planner now...
i have to say i hate the coffee at the bean around the world but, the tuna diablo at the main street location is a tastey treat and when you're finished there you can pop across the street to the flower factory and buy someone you like a bunch...or two.
the flower factory is incidently, the home of my first ever art display. i put one of my aluminum blockheads in the window there during a show thing they had there. it generated no interest but it was there. so there.
ok..that's enough for now...

soon...the all new "ask garn" portion of this blog...
details to follow.
