things the bastard saw at the hardcore show

meeting up with one's old friends somehow always becomes an opportunity to play catch up.

technology makes that possibility more interesting because one can use their phones, digital cameras, or even tattoos to better explain,

how your kid's doing these days,

how you let your hair grown in for a year and you bleached it,


that hammerhead shark you caught last summer,

what the weather is going to be like this weekend,


the can of bud light and clamato that matty aces saw at the bodega he buys beer from.


yes beer and clamato. for those who are not familiar with clamato, it is an awful creation made of tomato and clam juice. some brave souls use it to make a gross sounding bloody mary. others use it,

well

because they like it in their beer (shudder).


you know, they also make tortilla chips that are flavored with the stuff (shudder). i saw other things too but, i'll get to that later.
