a few days ago i got a nifty package in the mail from my friend erin. the wonders inside were:

• a sesame street pillow case
  
• a modern english tour t-shirt from 1984
  
• life lessons from the bradys by anthony rubino jr. (pocket book)

the modern english t-shirt is a large, but still doesn't fit me, either i've gotten rather fat, it's shrunken quite a bit, or a large was much smaller in 1984. i was never able to see modern english live, though they were one of my favourites from the 80s. the brady book has lots of advice to give such as:

saying "pork chops and applesauce" in the voice of humphrey bogart can be a lot of fun. give it a try. you know you want to.

if you're going to an unfamiliar tiki cave in hawaii to return a cursed idol, leave a trail of popcorn so people can find you in the unlikely event that you're held hostage by vincent price.

ah, yes. definately advice worth heeding.
