Hey, lemme tell ya – I just hit Budget Music & Video for their Record Store Day leftovers. No respect, I tell ya, no respect at all for these procrastinators, but that’s exactly what I am! Found some real beauties in there – reminds me of my first store, before the Tall & Fat shops. Started selling records outta my father’s trunk. Two sizes: broken and slightly broken!
But hey, speaking of fat – you gotta try this Chicago Italian Beef over at Magic City Hoagies. When I was growing up in the Bronx, we had a sandwich like this, but the guy making it looked so sad, the beef started crying! Not here though – these guys know what they’re doing. Medium rare beef, sweet peppers, the whole works.
And for you readers out there (yeah, I read now – I’m in college!), Main Street Books has 15% off calendars today. Perfect timing – I needed something to keep track of all my economics homework. Last time I was this busy counting numbers, I was checking my alimony payments!
Got a guess at today’s celebrity writer? It’s Rodney Dangerfield’s older-than-average freshman from the movie “Back to School” Thornton Melon
