I'm pooped? Aren't we all as we dissolve? Hope you had a nice weekend. Mine lasted a fortnight. Let's prance look askance then dance till the ants in your pants go to France. Attention: newly registered Str8 Sounds Free Monthly Lyrics Club member, this is your Welcome Message. Get all your 12 friends to join today. We guarantee you'll regret, I mean not forget, it. Also: listen to anti-phallo-fascist "More Sex" for an uplifting repressive euphoria! Patriotically Correct in every Dada aspect, no defect! Reminder: "Anarchist in the Head Shop" is a true story of a Saturday stroll to downtown, distributing hard to inflict free Str8 Sounds CDs.
