I think HEY PORTER was the first johnny cash song i heard. Why bring this up now? b/c my amtrak trip is rite around the veritable corner. Loaded up my ipod with the Streets, Neutral Milk Hotel, Tone Loc, and shit, couldnt find my Coney Island Baby cd Don Ciccone gave me. It's here somewhere but i cant find it dammit.
Amtrak tip: bring your own food. I once peeked in at the kitchen on amtrak...it wasnt air-conditioned, and the kitchen employees were sweating like crazy. AND they looked disgruntled. Not good. Look at your amtrak travel as an opportunity to shed a few pounds. Couldnt hurt, right? And bring your own water...believe it or not,sometimes they run out. One thing they DONT run out of is alcohol...i think the amtrak travelers would turn murderous if that happened. Happy Hour starts at about 2:30-3:00 pm, and when it's announced, there is a mad stampede for the bar car. The good thing about that is, since everyone starts drinking so early, they pass out shortly after they've had their dinner, so it's pretty quiet the rest of the night.
ok, gotta go finish packing. bye yall. (Hi Rich!! love ya!)
