“The beet is the most intense of vegetables. The radish, admittedly, is more feverish, but the fire of the radish is a cold fire, the fire of discontent not of passion. Tomatoes are lusty enough, yet there runs through tomatoes an undercurrent of frivolity. Beets are deadly serious.
Slavic peoples get their physical characteristics from potatoes, their smoldering inquietude from radishes, their seriousness from beets.
The beet is the melancholy vegetable, the one most willing to suffer. You can’t squeeze blood out of a turnip…
The beet is the murderer returned to the scene of the crime. The beet is what happens when the cherry finishes with the carrot. The beet is the ancient ancestor of the autumn moon, bearded, buried, all but fossilized; the dark green sails of the grounded moon-boat stitched with veins of primordial plasma; the kite string that once connected the moon to the Earth now a muddy whisker drilling desperately for rubies.
The beet was Rasputin’s favorite vegetable. You could see it in his eyes.” -Tom Robbins, Jitterbug Perfume

What happens when you show up shirtless to play George Michael on sax? A whole lot of security guards
Saxophonist Sergio Flores and friends went around various locations in the LA area, with Flores dressed in little but black leather pants, sunglasses and a black mullet to serenade random people with the soothing sounds of the sax solo in George Michael’s “Careless Whisper”. This should happen all the time. Life is too damn serious.
My dress for my best friends’ wedding. They are totally awesome and I’m so excited to be master of ceremonies for them. DJ Wordvenus has a nice ring to it.
my first 8tracks mix… so go listen.
