Top 5 Things He’s Fucking Thankful for (Except for Being Unable to Turn in a Column for the First Time, EVER)
1. Dr. Fawaz Kaba, the corneal specialist who saved my right eye this past January.
2. The post-op nursing staff who didn’t take my extremely violent awakening from anesthesia personally.
3. My ma and ma-in-law, brothermen Art, Jeff, Todd, David, and Jai for helping me out and always having my back during life’s occasional shitstorms, such as these.
4. Computer / electronic equipment that play back music, audio books, and movies.
5. And last, but most certainly not least, my continuing-to-amaze-me wife Yvonne. If life is a burrito, she is definitely the top shelf tortilla that keeps everything together and safe, and I love her beyond words for that.

Five Things That Were Already Underlined in My Copy of Dee Dee Ramone’s Autobiography, Poison Heart
1. On being in a rehabilitation center: “That was fucked up. They also made me play volleyball. It was a nightmare.”
2. On quitting the Ramones: “By then I was having a lot of fantasies about jobs […] so I could quit the Ramones. Like being a doorman or a candy store owner, or having a hot dog stand.”
3. About living by an old graveyard: “Once I went down there to get a loose brick and a dead person’s hand fell out of the hole where the brick had been […] the hand was all bone, but a gold and diamond ring was on its finger […] it must’ve been worth two and a half carats […] the money I got for it at the pawn shop kept me in dope and hostess cupcakes for months.”
4. On Joey the Artist: “Once Joey bought some fruit and vegetables at the grocery store and used them to do a painting. He churned them in the blender and painted with them—you could either look at the painting or eat it.
5. On End of the Century: “I still have no idea how [Phil Spector and the Ramones] finished End of the Century, or who actually played bass on it.”

In Light of Hearing That the Master of Disaster, Duane Peters, Is M.I.A. After Being Released from L.A.’s “TwinTowers” without Money, Shoes, or Wallet, I Offer the Following List in Tribute. Be Well, D.P.
1. The lyrics to “Warstoryville”ought to, one day, be in an anthology of poetry or a high school history text book.
2. The way we treat mental health issues, chemical dependence, and prisoners in this country, in this world, is seriously fucked.

Yvonne Drazan
Top 5 Easy Yet Yummy Recipes I Found in the Blogosphere
All Tested by Yours Truly and Come with the Designated Dale Seal of Approval!
1. “Million Dollar Spaghetti” from madefrompinterist.net. Layers of noodles, butter, a cream cheese/sour cream/cottage cheese mixture, and ground beef spaghetti sauce. Crazy decadent, but amazing!
2. “Green Sauce” from the-girl-who-ate-everything.com. Apparently a knock off of an avocado dip they have at a Texas eatery call Casa Ole. I would mainline it if I could.
3. “Korean Beef over Rice” from jcocina.com. I’m sure there is nothing authentic Korean about this stuff, but it’s so damn easy to make and it’s great comfort food.
4. “Bacon Cheeseburger Puffs” from plainchicken.com. Bacon, Bisquick, cheese, and ground beef... Do I really need to tell explain why this is great?
5. “Basic No Knead Bread” from frugallivingnw.com. If bread baking intimidates you, this is a good place to start. Once you make it you’ll wonder why you never tried making homemade bread before. Crunchy, chewy, airy... Fuckin’ awesome!
