Sonic Youth Gossip - post comething completely irrelevant!

In 1975:
1. You could buy an airline ticket and fly without ever showing an ID.
2. You could buy cough syrup without showing an ID.
3. You could buy and sell gold coins without showing an ID
4. You could buy a gun without showing an ID
5. You could pull as much cash out of your bank account without the bank filing a report with the government.
6. You could get a job without having to prove you were an American.
7. You could buy cigarettes without showing an ID
8. You could have a phone conversation without the government knowing who you called and who called you.
9. You could open a stock brokerage account without having to explain where the money came from.
10. You could open a Swiss bank account with ease. All Swiss banks were willing and happy to open accounts for Americans.

that last one always gets me. I can deposit checks galore without any ID asked of me, but when I deposit as little as $20 they scan my Driver's license through their machine.

Spent the past four days with my dad, brother and best friend in Central Texas on a golf trip. It was our 15th year doing this and our third year at our current location.

Yesterday, we stumbled across the neatest town: Fayetteville, Texas

Lunch was so good at Joe's Place, we went back for dinner last night. First time I ever had Chicken Fried Rib-eye! They have some massive antiques weekend going on and people were coming in from all around.

If you're taking beta blockers and a valium chances are its you ;)

But that's ok, we're all human and therefore all allowed to be the crazy one from time to time, Lord knows I've had my share of family function wrecking outbursts and moments where I'm very clearly not in my right mind.

Same here, but it's what this place is known for and our waitress swore by it. It was so tender, you could cut it with a fork and was one of my best chicken fried experiences EVER!

However, NOTHING about it made you think you were eating a rib-eye.

In NO WAY related, the Kansas City Royals play their first postseason baseball in 20 something years.

They host the Oakland A's and I look for KC to win.

Oakland's biggest fan turns 60 today:

How do they teach the chickens to fry a steak, and how many of them does it take to pick up such a big one?
I've been completely mind-boggled over this for the last couple of days
