Asshole
by Dr. Pants on Jun.28, 2006, under Life and the Universe
About 12 years ago I was an asshole to my dear friend Joe. I was a REAL asshole. I mean, it was certifiable asshole in nature. I stuck him with all kinds of shit, bills and explanations…. Then, in a stroke of pure idiocy, I fucked him over again. My ex assaulted him. I sided with her.
I sit here with that thought today. I feel bad about it. I wish it never happened. I wish I could take it back. He was a great friend to me.
So do we talk? Yeah, we still talk.. but it’s not the same.
I have few regrets in my life.. but the ones I do have are dooozies..
Joe, my friend, I am sorry……

Hey Eric,
Yola Tengo is coming to Shea’s in July. I thought of you, cause you turned me on to them.

Yo Dude,
Thanks for the post, it’s all good at this point in our lives. Best not to carry too much baggage into the future. I was just in Buffalo/Canada for about a week. Visited with Jesse Zeuful, with Brad & Joe after Thursday in the square, at his new bar - club Diablo (www.clubdiablo.com). He’s doing really well (apparently Harper does carpentry work around the place)… great to see those guys flourishing in that city. Then we went on to the Essex where the mood was not as welcoming. Sadly it appears we’ve been forgotten in that place (well, it has been almost 15 years). I guess Mackie is the manager now. They had this big collage of old photos but not one of you. It was wild to be back but just confirms the adage that you can’t go home again…which is best, my liver couldn’t take it.
DEUCE HERE!

Well, you know, I am a thoughtful kind of guy. I reflect upon the past often.

Ah yes to be young and drunk as the First Idiot again! When I’m sorry, it’s generally for not being asshole enough to bring on the bomb. BTW, if you need membership in the Asshole Anti-Defamation League, let me know. I still have plenty of membership cards. That’s MR. Asshole to you.
So Pants, I got here from a comment you made in 2004 to a post about the Justice Dept refusing to release information because it would result in the end of the world. Imagine that. Looks like the war on the freedom of information act continues in the NOMF.
BTW, Google has just about completely banned Uncommon Sense from their engine. The maroons.

I thought Europe didn’t go on vacation until August. WTF?

I understand Beirut used to be lovely this time of year. Now, even Condi Rice has a hard time shopping for shoes there.

I’m still winning and the NOMF is still reeling in the sheaves.

I’m really sorry about all the mean things I said about Martin back in the day, which only made the poor Dino sore.

Dr.Pantabulous…….
Where have you been of late. Scouring Norwegian flea markets and roller rinks in search of the meaning of life? It’s all relative dear boy. Come back to the surface and reveal your newest incarnation devoid of all past references. C’mon… display once more your inner self and share your cerebral wares for all to gleam and awe over.

I guess Norway is just too great a place to force one out on the disinformation frontage road.
