Today's weather was nice--69 degrees. I took the day off to enjoy it. I currently have eleven dollars and some change in my pocket. Perhaps a trip to Ilo Bar is in order, for I feel wealthy today.

I am an elevenaire.

Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and...

Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?

Nigel Tufnel: Exactly.

Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?

Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?

Marty DiBergi: I don't know.

Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?

Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven.

Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.

Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?

Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to eleven.

elevanaire brethren,

meant to call you today to wish us all well....you know those of us special enough to feel the swing and the sway of the eleven pendulum. not a momentous day for one that i so anticipated. i am in an awful funk that i cannot shake and it pains me so.... business as usual some might say. that painful knot in my gut continues to gnaw from within and i think it means to do me in.

safe travels on the tour path.
