Slacker Thursday

Feh. It's snowing, I just learned that Ten Years After guitarist/singer Alvin Lee has died in a tragic accident with a watermelon truck, and I'm not feeling so good myself.



Regular posting -- including part II of our Scenes From an Italian Restaurant series -- resumes on the morrow, Tex Antoine permitting.

I had heard it was a 'kumquat truck'. Steve, get well, get well soon.....

In 1970, a friend of mine from the East Coast swore to me that he was the person who, from the back of the crowd at Woodstock, started that watermelon moving toward the stage in time for Alvin to hoist it in triumph. It was an era where no one made up shit, so I'm pretty sure it's true.
