I had a dream last night in which I learned the secret to permanent happiness.
The solution was complicated and confusing to me at first, but I eventually learned and understood it. Its main components were food chemistry and advanced math. I realized that I had a masterful grasp of the concept and that I could write a book to share the secret with the entire world.

When I woke up, I remembered no details whatsoever of the secret.

Fuck.

1. I once dreamed
that Uncle Tupelo had gotten back together but were still fighting and they gave a concert where they channeled their rage at each other into the music. It was the best show I've never been to.

2. They probably gave that concert in real life at some point.
Imagine if you'd dreamed it before it happened.

;)

6. Yeah, Alton Brown makes biscuits and explains the mysteries of the universe.
I don't know -- I don't trust that guy any farther than I can throw his thinning, spiky hair.

9. Don't trust him how? Like, you think he's going to swindle your bank account info?
Or you don't think he can really make biscuits in a cast iron dutch oven with briquettes?

10. He's one step removed from Vince the Sham-Wow guy.
I smell pretension from him like I would smell burned, spiky hair.

11. Is there anyone on TV that doesn't smell like that?

12. Andrew Zimmern
But I blame only the lack of hair.

13. Ooo, I hate him.
I mean hate in a TV sense, not in a real sense. He's like the gross-out kid in junior high who eats bugs and frogs to get attention. Being a vegetarian and watching him is bad enough, but I watched him eat the beating heart of a frog they skinned on camera once, and never watched again. I draw the line at live animal mutilations.

4. Most of us already know that secret.
We can't tell you, though. We have to draw the line somewhere. Sorry.

5. Dammit! I was all the way there in the dream.
You're alienating me because I woke up? Excuuuuuse me!

Again: Fuck!

Don't wake up. :)
