Just a note to say that Mr. Tom Waits is 56 today, so you know... have some bourbon while listening to Rain Dogs.

Or just get on with your daily life as you normally would, as is your wont.

Thanks for providing an excuse I mean a thoroughly sound reason for starting earlier today.

OK, Bozack and I just did shots.  Tom Waits is the only person who could make me drink on the internet.

Exactly.. Tom Waits is the only person who I would write a post about Birthday-wise on the Internet... well, barring myself maybe (March 15th... gifts in the form of money and nubile young ladies please)...

So yeah... after work... it's Bourbon time for my main man Waits.

I sure hope cachaça counts as bourbon-ey enough... not that it matters *now*, anyway, but

Hell no it doesn't.. dammit boy you're never gonna get the gravel voice with that claptrap.

Get thee to a crappy gas station and buy a fifth of Old Crow.  Then when you've damaged your taste buds enough you've proven yourself worthy of the Knob Creek.

(Note: Back in college I was poor and actually drank Old Crow on a fairly regular basis.  I was later heartened by the fact that William S Burroughs apparently loved the stuff, as if that made it better.  I can say this though.. after about 6 months of regular Old Crow brain soakings later it tends to not taste so bad... strange, but true.)

My friends and I were split one time and watching a Star Search type program. It was muted while the Raindogs cd played through the stereo. We soon began laughing like crazy because the mannerisms and facial expressions of the performers on screen started mimicking Tom Waits' words  exactly. On the instrumental part of "Cemetery Polka", a lone woman in the audience was shown laughing and clapping like crazy. It was perfect - too perfect. Our jubilance turned to fear, and we spent the rest of the night cuddled together on the couch, terrified.

I have a bottle of Fleischmann's Prefered blended whiskey lying around, so I took a swig of that. Now I should probably gather up some coffee grounds, roll it into a cig using old newsprint and smoke it since I usually don't have tobacco lying around. Too bad I shaved yesterday.

Next year for Tom Waits' birthday I'll probably fly to Hong Kong, Shanghai or Singapore, where I will pass out drunk and get kidnapped by pirates.

I have indeed pounded back some cheap bourbon as of right now.. and luckily I am off work tomorrow!  WOoo HOO...

God's Away on Business is playing right now.. I have the whole discography queued up...  am I insane?  Quite likely, but for this reason I am not.

My typing is always impeccable.. even when drunken.

If anybody comes to pay me a visit, I'll take you to see where they make Old Crow.  And Knob Creek.  

Or Blanton's, Wild Turkey, Makers Mark, Jim Beam or what have you.

This offer does not apply to B or B.  They can go see the Old Forester distillery on their own.

I had Knob Creek; andalucia had some sort of brandy crap, because she wasn't tough enough for the ol' Southern Comfort (my gay porno name, coincidentally). It ain't bourbon, but it's gettin' closer.

Sorry, I didn't mean to grag.. it just happens.. or wait.. is the present tense form gragg.


Furthermore, I have gotten even further plastered here people.. this is necessary.

And AW.. does that mean I can pay a visit AND get free bourbon.. cause.. man.. I'm totally there already.
