Burnt, Fried, and Set Aside

While walking past the McDonald's at Vanderbilt Hospital, I overheard a middle-aged lady talking to an elderly woman with a walker.

Younger lady: "How 'bout McDonald's?"
Elderly lady: "Naw. If you eat there, you have to sit down twice."

The New Phonebooks Are Here!

I just looked my name up in the white pages & found that I am listed as
Gerald R & R Hager.

It wasn't someone else, it was me; had my address & everything. I gotta find out who I know at the phone company & buy them a beer.

A Nashville Legend Passes

Sideways House photo by Eartha KitschUsually, people fall asleep listening to stories about other people's pets. But, then again, not that many pet credentials include 'National Recording Artist'. BB really was a session musician. His work can be heard on Tom Mason's Where Shadows Fall & the upcoming Joe Nolan album Blue Turns Black. I dog-shit you not.

Unfortunately, his last work will be released posthumously. Yesterday, we had to have him put down. He was a great friend over the last 12 years. He loved being buried in leaves & snow, having a shop-vac run over his fur, & eating walnuts. I took to him because he didn't mind the smell of my cigar. In his declining years, he was perhaps a little less affectionate, but still, the most patient dog I've ever known.

I never got him that male-symbol ID tag, but I think he had a little more class than that.

For those of you who knew him, I thought you'd like to know. For those of you who didn't, here are a few pictures of him in the studio.
