today is tgiving-eve

Today is Thanksgiving Eve. I hope everyone has done their stomach expansion excercises to maximize turkey intake — for the vegetarians enjoy your Furkey.

I caught a They Might Be Giants documentary on Sundance last night: “Gigantic: A Tale of Two Johns”. In my pre-teen/early teen years I was a big fan — but I listened more to the tune than the meaning of the lyrics — On the surface, “Birdhouse in Your Soul” sounded like it was about something very deep and profound, really it’s just about a night-light. Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch… Dave Eggers interview in the flick, made me appreciate their songwriting tenfold.

Short entry today — have a fine holiday weekend, folks. We’ll see you back here Monday AM.
