Milford?
2 Apr2009
What the heck is going on in my home town?
First I read the local government passed a “no touching” law for all Milford schools and today I read a local pet shop has a rabbit with two noses. Are they mixing crack with the fluoride in your water systems? Have pod people invaded? The “no touching” law is just random government overkill. It seems lawyers are out to destroy the concept of childhood and boil down the first fourteen years of any child’s life to sitting in your house, in front of a TV or computer, bathing in anti-bacterial soap. Remember wrestling with your friends? Rolling down hills? Playing in the dirt? Scraping knees? Playing a pick-up game of football on a open field? Totally verboten today. Supervised “play dates” or nothing! If he touches you – we’ll sue! Don’t go out there – you’ll poke an eye out!!
No wonder kids are into drugs earlier these days – what else is there to do?
But the bunny with two noses – that’s scary…

Add this to the list of Milford crazieness: Dinosaur Jr played in Milford last night, at Daniel Street. It was weird to hear Lou Barlow tell ‘Milford’ to ‘Take it Easy,’ when bunch of kids who were trying to crowd surf got the crap kicked out of them by a bunch of thirty somethings in Misfits tshirts. Like i said, weird…

Wow. But which is weirder – that a fight broke out or that Dinosaur Jr. was playing in MILFORD?

OK…I will put this rumor to bed..I did not start the fight at Daniel Street last night. I don’t have a Misfits tee shirt. The “No Touching” thing came about because one student “Rochambeau’d” another during the school day (I know I spelled that wrong, but yopu know what it is if you watch South Park.) And it should have been “No Inappropriate Touching”, which should be obvious. After many complaints, they clarified that they did not mean such normal acts as a pat on the back, high-five, fist bump, etc. And Milford has always been alittle off, anyway. Or maybe I’m alittle off and Milford is normal. Anyway….

i think the fight was a reaction to the weirdness of seeing j. mascis playing with his blackberry while he was watching the opening band, who was amazing.

I believe I got Rochambeau’d quite often as a kid. Kind of every Tuesday…

So how was Dinosaur Jr.? It must have been really weird seeing them at Daniel St.
And the bunny? That’s what happens when you breed them to be sold. Don’t buy bunnies at pet stores, adopt them!
ok, off my soapbox.

But breeding bunnies to be eaten is fine, so go right ahead. hmmm….does a bunny with two noses taste better? In fact, do they twitch in the same direction or in opposite directions at the same time?…

Dinosaur was good, lots of old stuff. Their second song was Tarpit, the crowd seemed to get a little bit restless after that. Pretty standard set for them. It was strange seeing a legitimate band at Daniel Street however. The sound guys actually put in some effort this time and got the mix right which is what i thought was most amazing considering I have played there six times and all the shows were terrible specifically because of the sound.

Hey – I’m a big fan of having bunny on my plate (sorry Terry), but isn’t eating a bunny with two noses like eating a fish with four eyes?

so like eating a fish sandwich at McDonalds? Im pretty sure the fish they use are birthed in a lab without heads. Pretty sure…

I don’t know if a bunny with two noses tastes better, but he sure does smell better !!!!
