LIPS THAT TOUCH LIQUOR.

Settin' the pace.


Liquor the lips and thy secret shall be known. The trick would seem to be -- liquor the rest of the body, instead. Imagine that -- a cold heart and some warm hands. Taken on face value, there is little difference, afterall, between a Metrobus and a Succubus. A deeper examination reveals that one never comes on time, while the other only comes at night. Whereas the Porcubus is leaving, right now, for the Congressional District, HA-HOOGA. Listen to Charles Mingus and fly Aer Lingus Lingus Lingus Lingus Lingus, and, dern it, don your Porcupine Hat, gnat. "Talk about the greats" someone always wants to talk about the "greats" as if it's a condition. Comin' down from the grates, "Jimmy's in there, comin' down from the grates," and he is, in there, in the closet, sleeping on his feet. Eights, of course, are one rotation away from infinity. Or, if you've got a particular kind of eight, then, infinicky. O, Bored Walk of my Water Front, O, Boardwalk of my Moist Facade, HA-HOOGA. A furlough, Jack, is an economic readjustment, not the foxpiece worn round the ankles, and a furlong is a horse-race discrepancy. Rankle, ankle, angle, wrangle. Don't know 'bout you, but I need a nip just for everyday tongue-twisters, and other twisters, I need to reach out and touch liquor, since its spirits are distal, still, a distillation, dot, dot, dot, in the Northern Sky.

Being an onion? A junior? "Gina" -- you really ought to slow down and spellcheck. Agh. The "indecent"? The Incident? Agh. Yes it is your real name. And you eat chicken wraps in Cleveland, on the Crooked River. ------------------BA

What I want: a Great Stout. As in, Catherine the Great Stout. And I ain't gonna pour it down no grate, either.

You can't get the grates from STOUT except if you neglect -- separately -- citrus. If one is one with the citrus in advance then STOUT will not grate but great. -------BA

A junior. You all are crazy. But for adults youre not bad. GINA!

I find citrus grounding, especially when served avec tequila. The whole thing is very of the earth. Put a grate over it and weep. But Gina's right: this ain't no world for juniors. Juniors don't even get their choice of citrus.

High school is like assuming different aliases, it would seem esp. 11th and 12th grade. You're Gina, Jr. and then you're Gina, Sr. Unless you're not Gina, but you're still Jr. and Sr. As for citrus, well, it's an economy, is what it is. No citrus, no economy. Plenty of scurvy, thus, and therefore, making citrus as necessary as STOUT. No citrus no STOUT and seeing as STOUT is the goal then citrus must be tended to, gently, with soothing voice. ----------BA
