Goodbye in Gasoline
I‘ve decided that Goodbye in Gasoline has overtaken How’s My Driving, Doug Hastings? as my favorite Less Than Jake song. It’s a tough call to make.

Warm in Gainesville
“I brought a fleece,” University of Tennessee student Lance Pasco said mockingly as the temperature rose to 85 degrees in Gainesville, Fl. “For God’s sake, why did I bring a fleece?”
Rematch!
The Houston Chronicle: “You need a flowchart to keep track of all the subplots of today’s game between No. 2 Florida and No. 7 Tennessee at “The Swamp” — a berth in the Southeastern Conference championship game, a possible berth in the national championship game, bragging rights and a rematch of one of last year’s… Read more »
