Beer and Fish

Beer and Fish with a nod to Jaws and FishingJones:

"Show me the way to go home/ I'm tired and I want to go to bed/ I had a little drink about an hour ago/ And it went right to my head/ Where ever I may roam/ On land or sea or foam/ You will always hear me singing this song/ Show me the way to go home."

A heartbreaking work of staggering genius

On many levels, this is the kind of thing that's good for the internet.

feeling a little tipsy just reading this

Whirling Disease Wheat, Mud Snail Slap, Heavy Metal Headwaters---this alone is enough to make me go straight to the tequila and skip the beer. or better yet, to go for the pure, clear water. nice one, cam.

Cam the Brilliant

Ah, Cam....your work is so evocative, so gentle, yet it cuts right through to the heart of longing and memories. Loved them all and especially felt for you and Mike and the hangovers. I cannot wait to see you again this summer and grab the big guy on our new Meadow River! Our best from Dallas and we will let you know when to ride over for our reunion. Pat
