“When Billy Blake asked Lazarus how come he lay down on his left side and his right side so long and eat dung, he (Lazarus) said, “The desire to raise man’s perception to the infinite,” or some such. // Like Joh Prine says, the Lord works in mysterious ways. // I say thanks to David Kent, and Marty for the mood and the mix, and to Mike, Sammy, Jerry, Lee, Gary, Terry, Billy, Sherlie, Rita, Clydie, Byron, Allen, Jack for the music, and to Teddy Jack Eddie and the mayor for helping me learn to fall in slow motion and make my own salad. // Yours in sport, Casi Demento”.
