why "quash" instead of "squash?"

Because they mean different things, and in this case "quash" is the correct word.

I could use a nap today.

Believe me, I appreciated it.

Oh fuck.  You just gave me some bad flashbacks

I don't know I think Wilco with that lineup could have made a lot more real good operas.  Stiratt has that nice high tenor which could have been employed in some ass-kicking arias -- put him into a blond Brunhilde style wig and you're off and running.  Tweedy could have been the baritone hero, and Bennett with his low bass could have been the evil Svengali like genius trying to steal Brunhilde from Tweedy.  Coomer, Bach, Johnston, and Egan as a sort of Chorus commenting on the action?

Oh, he used the word correctly. I just wanted D.C. to come in and define "pompous" for us.

one thing that's kinda tiresome (to me) about the Bennett/Coomer argument is the assumption that if those guys had stayed in the band it would have cranked out another half dozen opera of equal (or better) quality to Being There or Summerteeth.  

 

because, see, you never know.

Where's that Dick Ctionary guy when you need him?

Today we had more budget meeting. I will drink beer later.

How is that relationship going now?

I passed him while he was waiting at the elevator today and I wished him a pleasant trip.

I am wearing styling product in my hair today.

Has NoJ had his thread-creating privileges revoked?

Whoops.

I saw the Harlem Globetrotters play a basketball game against the New Jersey Generals at Vanderbilt circa 1983.

I have moved on to the Jay Bennett solo catalog.

If you are burned out on Wilco than you should post on another board!

People have been putting peanuts in Coke for probably close to 100 years. Nobody puts peanuts in Pepsi but fucking hipsters and carpetbaggers.

I've heard some people put peanuts in their Pepsi. Two things wrong with that. 1) Pepsi sucks. 2) It's wrong.

You're making that up.

Yeah you either love them or hate them.  But southern style, cajun, boiled peanuts are heavenly.  

Is there another kind of boiled peanut?

Is this a remake of one of those old Ask Wookies threads?

Please don't invoke wookies.

Boiled peanuts are nasty.

Disclaimer: It has been at least 25 years since I have tasted a boiled peanut.

It was a wedding present and I'm not a hipster so I didn't exchange it at Goodwill for a shitty one.

I only have a fancy crockpot.
