Hangovers: Just as fun at 36 as they were at 18. Fuck. Flew home this morning, and wanted to strangle a little kid who wouldn’t shut the fuck up, or sit still, a row over from me. Something like that.

Got “kinda hammered” last night at the Wu-Tang singing group show.

SOME PROOF: “DDC vs. RZA! We tight!”

I checked with the online Wu-Tang Name Generator, just to be official: Aaron Draplin = “Lazy-Assed Destroyer.” Got a good ring to it.

Nice guy. Gonna watch Ghostdog and think about him. Ninjas and shit.

WHEN YOU BOIL IT DOWN: Here’s the main thing I got from Denver: Jeff Baker turned me on to opening bananas from the bottom end, instead of using the stem thing at the top. “That’s how gorillas do it.”

And that just might’ve been the coolest thing I’ve heard/learned all of January. Thanks Baker, you gorilla.

That photo of you and the RZA is pretty much the best thing ever.

My pops was part of the society that helped out Koko, the big old gorilla that could do sign language. He took me up to the camp that housed her.

I was a kid at the time. I brought a bunch of bananas for her. She opened them from the bottom, as your buddy says…..but then she ate the goddamn peels first!
