spaced out and stout-mouthed

played accessory to a crime the other day when our neighbor "dinky" came by with a baby seal in the back of his pickup and was looking for some herring to feed it. i couldn't really say no even though i thought he was kinda fucked up for taking it. it had apparently been stranded past the tide line at a fairly substantial low and, although it was almost certainly a goner, he decided to take it home as a "pet" and now it's surely a goner. poor thing was scared as hell in the scratched up bed beside a spare tire, some old line, and a handful of rusty bolts. and aggresive too. those little fuckers have some burly claws. it seemed as though it should still be feeding on momma's milk so i'm not too sure that the fish i donated did any good. probably for the best.

on another (and final work related) note, i fired the chump carpenter. think i'm stuck with the crazy cook, however.

if you're looking for something to do in Anchorage this sunday(5 June), swing by Cuddy park for what has apparently been dubbed the Anchorage Festival of Unpopular Music. don't know the complete line up but los gran torinos will appear (unfortunately, without our sax player) along with eu vusahm, fats tunamelt, spitshine, chicago 8, flying falcons, and more. also, Food Not Bombs will be there to provide, well, food. i think stubby's crack company's mobile zine library will be there as well. the whole thing is free, outside and (somewhat) family friendly. yeah, i get a vacation and now i get to stress out over this show. . .

so, i had no idea that colorado springs is the "evangelical vatican" . . . a very interesting article in Harper's about a christian wacko that speaks with W. once a week. came upon this one via (worth scrolling down for the commentary)

be sure to watch the trailer for The Guatemalan Handshake. yeah, that's bonnie will oldham there.

listening to:

mornings: skinner pilot-this parking lot is being videotaped, minutemen-ballot results
evenings w/ headphones and nips from the flask: the foreign press-demos and sketches
to lull me to sleep: lau nau-kuutarha
