Lonesome Bets came over to see what was going on. I told her, (in the kitchen), to take it easy on Ginge and she just looked at me like I had no idea about women whatsoever. It was noon and we were drinking heavily at that point. It was raining. There was fuck all else to do.

Soon, Tall Paul and Bernie showed up - everybody behavin' themselves nicely but then, I had just finished introducing Lucille. We all sat around on the porch couch and watched the people go by. Some of the other local geniuses would come and go all afternoon. Even Jacko Barker stopped in to chew on some ankles. At one point my bathroom was so full of strangers I had to take a leak off the back deck.
