Many people approach me and ask the following question. Saf, what's better than a Pearl Jam concert?

My reply. A second Pearl Jam concert.
Yesterday, I actually had an encounter with a Mike McCready imposter.
His wife said I was the 4th person he fooled that morning. Very convincing. Turns out he's some dude from Greensburg. Reminded me of when I met Phil Lesh at a '94 Deer Creek show out in the parking lot. The real bass player from the Grateful Dead.
Lesh's denials were persistent. "I swear, I'm not him. I get this all the time. Yada yada yada."
My final reply... "Alright man, why don't you just go and wave to the wind ?!?"

| Let's give today's Orange Prolapse Award to the politically charged PJ frontman... Eddie Vedder. |
| Night #2 awaits! Until Eddie Vedder (chapter 18) honors my suggestion, the Dumps will continue. Unabated! |
| A Power T-Dump on Penn Ave. Why is Nicky's Thay closed on Sunday? We want apps! Specifically Thai Toasts. Also known as Thay Toasts. That's assuming you're originally from Martial County, WV. |
| Step out of the Dump... and into the light. |
| This Dump's BANANAS! B-A-N-A-N-A Anna's! Andy Bunghole Bridge. |
| Gotta love that fly. Oh, to be a fly on a Trump Dump. Such an insectuous honor. |

A disgrace is, his wife’s face is
First Lady who me must defend
Euro-hated, his wife’s face is
First Lady who me must defend
Asshole gaped is, his wife’s face is
First Lady who me must defend
Wasted Reprise
Pearl Jam
I have faced it, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
Having tasted, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
I escaped it, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
I've always liked the Life Wasted reprise. The song has a poignant essence.
