(Speaking of all the ha-ha-has-! I was reading this thread and saw the milk bottle post but not the poster, and thought "That seems like thejab" and SURPRISE-! Well, I laughed. And that's all that matters.)

As I may or may have not splained to Miss 'Pea while fairly smashed at the Roy Kay Trio* CD release party at the Tractor last week (where, I must add, Miss 'Pea looked so fine one could only say "Fabulous!" if one was the sort to say that kinda thing. Which I ain't. But the wine in me is.), Spokane is a swell and weird city yet seems to lack anything particular of interest. My last visit there (two falls ago for mom's cancer surgery...She LIVED! And is doing Grrrrrreat-!) I poured over the town for any cool Chinese restaurants or something vaguely Tiki and came up empty. The one thing I can reccomend in Spokane is the Dicks drive in which is NOT like the Dick's in Seattle. Other than that just wander around and enjoy the weird vibe which gets you thinkin' "David Lynch should make a movie here."

*If yer at all a fan of well crafted basic classic straight forward country/rockabilly check out the Roy Kay Trio. Buy both their albums, 2002's "Wanderin' Mind" and the brand new "Knockin' Em Back". Muy excellent. And their really great live, if yer so damned lucky.
