When you are engulfed in flames
All rules had their exceptions, but the way I came to see things, they generally went like this: Kools and Newports were for black people and lower-class whites. Camels were for procrastinators, those who wrote bad poetry, and those who put off writing bad poetry. Merits were for sex addicts, Salems were for alcoholics, and Mores were for people who considered themselves to be outrageous but really weren't.
Swing batter batter
In minor league baseball, there are a lot of foul balls and candied nuts, particularly pecans which are the general favorite at this stadium. About mid-game, we caught a ball but then everyone yelled "give it to the kid," so we did. I think that kid left the game with six balls tonight. Punk.

This is what you shall do
This is what you shall do: Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul; and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body…
- Walt Whitman
Your benefactor is someone
who has helped you
who supports you
who believes in you
whom you feel grateful towards
whom your appreciation easily flows toward
Happy Mother's Day, mom!
Cinco de Mayo
This weekend is the Cinco de Mayo festival in Denver.
To be honest, the food was the best part. It was walking through the hundreds of ugly people that was almost unbearable. There was also a woman who could not pronounce "bratwurst" so instead she kept asking for a "broadway." Sorry hunny, you gotta go to NY for that.
