john cage reads from “mureau”, an “i ching determined mix of letters, syllables, words, phrases and sentences from the journals of thoreau” concerning music.

this is joe, he volunteered at the store one day while his mom ran errands, and when he left all the action figures were arranged such that they were either fighting or humping or standing with their hands outstretched touching each other directly and exactly on the tips of their noses. anyway, joe’s really into aloe, so i got a case of this aloe drink, which is good, and you can decide that it’s refreshing, but it has thick wads of aloe floating in it, and not many people allow the ideas “refreshing” and “chunky” to cohabitate a thought. but joe liked it, i like it. if you want some we have most of a case of it, it’s a dollar a can, the going rate.

tom was a friend of ours, an artist, a teacher, an anti-war activist, and a million other things. in 1968 he was arrested for walking into a draft office and setting fire to all the records. i only met him last year, but we had a good time at pizza hut that one time, and he tried to volunteer at the shop but schedules never worked out. almost every time i saw him i think, he was wearing two hats, which is cool. tom passed away in his sleep a few days ago. he was 68 years old. scott wrote a really good obit here. you are missed, tom!

sam works at the store every friday. this action figure isn’t for sale, but his new comic book “pizza wizard” is, so swing on by!

quint didn’t know it, but he was our employee of the month for last november. he comes in every week to sift and aerate the matchbox cars while his dad spouts aphorisms like “if you don’t know a knot, tie a lot” and “you should always get the right tool for the job, but any tool is potentially a hammer”. hey matt, can you get me a picture for the wall?
