Is This Interesting?
Thoughts/feelings that just might not matter:

Another Fourth of July has come and gone, friends. I spent it in true American cloudy-day fashion, joining my girlfriend at the mall for some pizza, clothes-shopping, and the latest Michael Moore film. [It’s great. Amazing. Go see it. I’m a big fan.] We ate Sonic corn dogs and hot dogs, we got eaten alive by mosquitoes, we chatted with old friends, we drank a variety of beer, and we watched the City’s fireworks display from my normally quiet little street, which had turned into Party City and Explosion Town.

Now it’s over, and I’m back here at American Money Team. I could complain, but my fear is that any utterance or typeface of that sort would come across as hollow, an ejaculation of sand from the mouth of a sloth who just can’t tell when he’s comfortable and content.

Anywayz, I’ll perform tonight with Matt the Electrician at Café Mundi.

“But it’s Thursday! You guys usually rock my world on Wednesday!”

Hey, I’m just as confused as you are, but you’ve got to trust me on this one.

“Trust you? How do I know this is even Southpaw typing and not some highly-paid marketing team?”

Because I’m poor. And I like to think I have a distinct, individual voice on paper or screen.

“Oh, you mean like ‘an endless bray of pointless jocosity’?

Uh, I don’t know what that means, but sure, something like that.

“Ok, so you’re playing tonight at Café Mundi?”

Yes, yes.

“And one more question: Chimney-Butt says what?”

What?

“You’re a Chimney-Butt.”

Who told you?

Freshly-picked quotes from the ol’ reference collection:

You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating the very phrases which our founding fathers used in the struggle for independence.
