excellent

nothing like a little ammonia in your food

For my job I occasionally have the rare privilege of going into meat
processing companies
Though I really saw no obvious unsanitary conditions
I decided to quit eating meat.


I still eat chicken and fish and thankfully
I have no customers that process them...
or I'd probably stop eating them too

"It's good though" has been a running joke between me and my daughter
for over 20 years.

I first heard about Utah Phillips maybe 35 years ago when this couple I
knew came back from hitch-hiking around the country (those were the days)

They had been picked up by him and brought his album back

what a great guy he was!

in fact "good though"

The *alternetive* is to Buy Local. Make a decision to support small
farmers and visit a farmers market. You can make a lot of good contacts
that way. Even in cities theres people who are doing small plot
operations or raising chickens in their backyards. If you dont like what
Big Food industry produces, dont eat it.

No I ain't starvin' here

as long as there is food to eat all is well


I can only recall once that I totally ran out of money (1972)

It was a weekend and my GI Bill check was due on Monday

I had no food and no money

it was winter and it was snowing.


I did not know what I was going to do
but I decided I'd go down into the basement of the apartment I was
living in and figure something out


Well there was a large lead pipe down there and and old girl's bike
with a basket on it.


The tires still had at least some air in them

so I rolled the pipe up as best I could

put it in the basket
and peddled the bike several miles through the snow and took the pipe
to the junk yard.

maybe the pipe was worth it
or maybe the guy felt sorry for me

but I got two dollars and ten cents

wow...I was expecting maybe 50 cents


I went to the store and bought dried beans and lentils

and even a few other odds and ends

and made some nice soup

enough to last the weekend


But I'd hardly call that a down and out story...
more one of optimism

In 1972 you could actually buy some groceries for $2.50

A down and out story about the value of a dollar.
