A: Have you ever really looked at your hand?

A: Cantwell told us we were suffering from a hypeness deficiency. Neill is apparently still working on some sort of poultice that restores it.

A: Have you ever Vined one of those things?

A: What would I tell it?
Q: Why did you turn down the offer to play drums in Turkeyleg?
A: If you’re going to go that heavy with the low end, then three basses seems like a paltry amount. I told them I’d only do it if they got two more.

A: Tzadziki?
