Return to Luby's

Wow. Texas. Waco. I wanted to take a picture that captures the essence of Waco so here it is.

That's the parking lot of Luby's, which was not as good as I remembered it to be. Here's some hope for the future, my 78 year old great aunt Minnie Fay, who has lived in Waco her whole life proudly proclaimed herself to be a lifelong Republican who is going to vote for Barack Obama in the next election.

I'm back! Hope I didn't offend any young thriftsters with that last post. I worried about that over the weekend. You screen whatever on whatever you want. Well, not old Le Tigre shirts, please.

Ganglians play a show at Funcastle tomorrow. Joshua Ploeg is doing food pickups the next three weeks. I'd post his thing but I don't think he wants me to.

My go away party is Saturday right after the Ninja Baby Shower. Show up, eat BBQ, and get a head start for 2nd Saturday. There's is at 2pm, mine starts after so uh... 5pm?

The Lizards might be playing that night at Javalounge, and Jay is going to be playing his Japanese banjo after the baby shower.

That's at Bill and Karen's house. If you don't know where that is, email me and I'll give you their address. Anyone and everyone is invited. Yup.

Waco! Did you eat a burger at Health Camp?

Health camp? Never heard of it. There was devastation in the community there lately because the Chat N' Chew closed down. Also, my Uncle Leo told me about some BBQ place in a barn in the middle of a cornfield, but I didn't have a car so I wasn't able to go.

After these shows I will be heading up thru Oregon,Washington and hopefully British Columbia.At the last show I do-- I will be auctioning my homemade sanshin off.It's made from a tin can and block of wood.I made it myself and stays in tune--well sort of...

Waco! Yea, my whole family is there and many a summer (hot, hot summers) were spent there.

You missed the Dr.Pepper bottling factory? It's a pretty neat place to go.
