I had an organic bison burger in Burlington, VT once. It was actually really good.

There's always The Beer Festival too,,,

good lineup of tunes, I must say. And there's bound to be SOMETHING to drink...

ha!

Sex Drugs and Cocoa Puffs by Chuck Klosterman

I've actually heard a lot of good things about this novel. I think I'm going to pick it up in the near future.

Here's a list of books that I've read this summer so far that i've found to be really interesting:

1)"Sophie's World" (I just started reading it today and really couldn't put it down) - it's an easy read and fairly entertaining about the history of philosophy.

2)"The Eternal Lightness of Being" - Milan Kundera: another entertaining story, an existentialist one at that. Brilliantly written.

3) Though it's not fiction, I read Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring" (it came out in 1962). This book started a huge environmentalist movement in the United States. It's pretty revolutionary

4)"The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nightime" - a really light, easy read as well...through the eyes of a boy who falls somewhere on the lines of Autism Spectrum Disorder. This is another one I just couldn't put down.

5) "On A Cold Road" - Dave Bidini. He's the guitar player for the Rheostatics...it's about the bands' first Canadian tour opening for the hip, and essentially a history of Canadian Rock in general. Lots of commentary by Rick Emmet and Goddo. It was appropriate as I started reading it when we were on the road with Little Feat.

If you want more info on any of these I'd be happy to chat about it - happy reading.

9/11 Higher Ground - Burlington - This seems a high posibility

agreed.

though i tend to be referred to as "Booch" - I couldn't use it as my screename for this board. because of its uncanny similarity to the infamous brothers in question i had to change my screename to Boochawan. Tear.

Love

One of my favorite books of all time:

"A Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedey O'Toole. A pullitzer prize novel; brilliantly written, and absolutely hillarious. A real treat.

I can vouch for Afrodizz - I've seen them a few times in Montreal. Great stuff here.

I'm selling a pair of LP Aspire Congas (a quinto and a conga to be exact)...they look something like this:

They've been on the road with me and still sound great. Email me at booch@vanderpark.com if you're interested...

Peace
