Present and accounted for, sir.  I can't wait.  I've already got the dollar bill tucked inside my shoe to mime it out.  (My friend Robert Ayala and I *killed* this once at the Mint.)

Did you ever catch up with Robert while you were here?

I did: The day before I left, I had lunch with him at No Name Sushi a/k/a Welfare Sushi a/k/a Sweaty Windows Sushi a/k/a Yokoso Nippon.  Great place on Church @ 15th, highly recommended for fans of the genre.  We talked of Stereolab and aging.  But not of Schwab, or of Glen Campbell.
