Hungry

Hamachi's call-to-arms left me a little hurt, and a little thoughtful.

I suppose it's easy to let things go beyond your grasp sometimes.

To leak the soul and spirit out of something beautiful by overdoing it.

I rode home, howling drunk, starved and debased, and attacked this thing in a way that it was meant to be done;

Loaded and shirtless with a can of cheap beer, sweating at 3-o-clock on a Tuesday morning.

Keith Richards onetime said, "I wasn't lookin' real good, but I was feelin' real well."

    sardines evoke an image of a serious bukowski impersonation where tins and cans pill up with reckless abandon just to do it all over again the next day. i think you found the true spirit of salts.

    You were howling drunk but you still had the good sense to take a fine picture before you scarfed? Good work. Have you ever tried subbing out the saltines for matzo? You can break them into various long lines where you can stack 2 or 3 sardines in succession on each piece. Add some PEPPER PLANT brand California style hot pepper sauce and you'll have the holy trinity & do that PBR justice.

    I'll trade you a bottle of Ardvaark for a jar of your "PEPPER PLANT".

    Done?


    Cool.

    Deal. I need to go to San Luis Obispo to get some more. I'm down to one more bottle. Next month.

    Wow. Nice cans.

    And I mean that.

    When do we get a review?

    My momma doesn't usually allow me to drink beer on school nights so I have to wait until I get the pass. I'm liking your review formula that includes a hot sauce and a tasty alcoholic beverage. I'll try to find something worthy. You guys have the taste for exotic.
