I'm gonna drink beer!

Today I was in the liquor store, having a look for some beer for the women at tonight's little get together (we men seem to be whisk(e)y drinkers. I noticed a second section of "Canadian" beers, and went over and what did I find. The gluten-free beer from Quebec that I'd been pestering the LCBO about!

For the first time in something like eight years, I'm going to drink lager.

For a long time I was very bitter that the people who controlled the means of anybody ever hearing my songs were never gonna play them. They only favored music that I specifically and particularly hated, and I wanted them dead. Suddenly, there was another avenue. I started hearing my stuff coming out of bars and then it started to happen little by little -- a movie song here or a TV ad there.
