====================================
Greetings Folks,
Scenario Number One
It's Tuesday, May 20, 2003, which can only mean one thing: cardboard
recycling gets
picked up tomorrow morning, not glass. For the love of God, do I have to
keep reminding you?
It's frustrating. Ten years of this kind of thing. For once, I wish you'd do
something
without me having to explain it to you fifty times. Is it that hard to smoke
out on the
porch, or put your cup in the dishwasher? You know, the whole experience
would be better for
me if you gargled before getting into bed. And in case you're wondering,
there is no
laundry fairy. When you step out of your tighty-whities and leave them on
the bathroom floor,
I pick them up, not some brain-dead pixie. I didn't sign on to be your
mother...Don't
even get me started on your mother. She really did a number on you. Where do
you think
you're going? Oh, really? Fine. Just go. Really, I could care less. Go watch
the game at
Jimmy's. No wonder he doesn't break your balls, he's a bigger asshole than
you...I'll take HBO
over you any day: the conversation is better. Coward.
Scenario Number Two
It's Tuesday, May 20, 2003, which can only mean one thing: Ashmont Records
releases
Pernice Brothers Yours, Mine and Ours today. Perhaps the greatest positive
effect of the
release is as follows: Nine months from today, a bumper crop of
love-children, a baby-booming
new wave will spring forth to save the Social Security system. They will
have first names
like Monahan and Pinkerton and Stein. They will be as gentle and firm as
Superman's
father. They will always look good, and do even better. You might not live
to see them come
completely into their own, but what you do see will be enough. That nagging
something or
other that dogs your every step will seem laughable post-YMO. All of your
policies will be
mature and your soufflés timed perfectly. You will have a new appreciation
for just about
everything. And should you encounter the odd speed bump in the road (which
may or may not
happen), you'll learn from it. You'll learn like no one has ever learned
before. But
you'll remai
n humble, never forgetting what things used to be like.
-JP, Brooklyn
