Wednesday's Cartoon Chuckle
The sad thing is that I'm so old I can actually imagine that happening. 😎
What's different? Then I dosed. Now I micro-dose. And there's still the occasional electric sangria festivities.
I try to avoid doctors. Too many frightening side effects. If it ain't broken don't fix it.
I remember having that phony "Go Ask Alice," book being assigned reading at my high school circa 1970. What a load of shit that was. About as stupid as Joe Friday's Blue Boy.
When I spent a short spell in Grand Rapids during 1974 the coolest hangout bar was called the White Rabbit. It wasn't exactly the Green Dragon but revolutionary nevertheless. If that revolution was for fun, fraternizing and foosball. And the best juke box selection in town. I've been told it's been gone for decades. But I transgress.
The real reason I'm here is to draw attention to the late Terry Reid.
