I saw a guy in a tan tweed suit riding down New Hampshire on a unicycle yesterday evening at dusk. Now that I’ve been reminded he was probably taking part in the Tweed Ride I regret even more not having a long stick to shove in the spokes.

Abandoned at checkout at Duane Reade: The “Alone Again, Still” Fun Pak (Depressed Single Mom edition.) Contents: Beer, chocolate-covered pretzels, Monistat, leg razors, weight-loss pills, and, sadly, Enfamil.

“It was like we had a residency at The Cooler,” agrees Smith. “Once my friend Jake Fogelnest brought Gabby Hoffman and Christina Ricci to come see us at one of those shows.

I remember seeing Cold Cold Hearts at The Cooler like a zillion times. I guess one time I brought Gabby Hoffman and Christina Ricci because, you know, THE 90’S.
