Once I was at a stopsign in Portland and the girl in the car behind me actually got out of her car to come up to my car and tell me how much she liked the Sonic Youth sticker. There's a true fan for you. My favorite sticker spotted in Austin - "WHAT WOULD G.G. ALLIN DO?"

Back in the late '90s, before I owned a car, I sometimes thought that I'd like to combine Phish, Skinny Puppy and RH stickers on one bumper. Just to be different, y'know. But when I eventually got a car I never bothered with any bumper stickers, except for one "Kerry-Edwards 2004," for all the good it did. Now I have a new (used) car and I'm thinking of a selection of religiously themed stickers, like maybe a Cthulhu fish and a WWBD: http://www.cafepress.com/scifimom.133567257 - --Chris ______________________________________________________________________ Christopher Gross On the Internet, nobody knows I'm a dog. chrisg@gwu.edu ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2007 12:11:23 -0500 From: Dolph Chaney Subject: FREE DOWNLOAD: my first album RIPPLES (1993) Hi all: I've made my first solo album RIPPLES available as a free download (14 256kbps mp3 files, tidied up in a 91MB zip file).

Never owned a Henley solo record (and damn sure can't be bothered to look it up), but my long-battered memory seems to recall that it was (although I doubt if I've heard it in 20+ years) sumthin' closer to "You Haven't Been Drinking Enough."

(or something like that.)
