Word As Bond
I think I have a stomach virus or something. I'm tired, I'm sore, and my stomach feels like I drank tar. Wait a minute ... I think I did drink tar, or something like it. I went to City Bakery on 18th between 5th and 6th and got a cup of their hot chocolate. It's not the normal cup of Swiss Miss, you see. It's basically bars of chocolate melted down in this big vat with lots of cream. It's the most amazing and delicious cup of hot chocolate you'll ever have, but make sure you sip it on the way to the gym (or the emergency room).

It's prolly all that food I ate on Passover. Herbert lead his seder (meal), and basically ate like I was on death row and it was the last meal. Potato kugel (an European little quiche-like cake), brisket of beef (try it at Second Avenue Deli), matzoh-meal muffins, asparagus, simmis (a sweet mix of steamed prunes, sweet potatoes and carrots), gefilte fish (mmmmmmmm) and more. I'm getting sick again just thinking about it. Perhaps it's just the weather. I can't wait for warmer weather, man. I'm telling you! I really am. I can't f-ing wait! I've been going to the gym, running, but I still feel like sludge. Sludgebob Squarepants. I wanna feel like the Million Dollar Man. I wanna go hump for hump with the pigeons I see screwing all day out on my air conditioner.

Big shout out to Sheldon Lutchman and the Dirty Trails Traveler crew for my latest love via the Caribbean Men Quarterly Magazine, a new bi-monthly magazine for Caribbean Men ... and white Jewish deejays, of course. You can get the issue on stands now, or you can check the website at www.cmqmagazine.com. Click on events, and you'll see the hottest, sexiest man in America today.

Freedom this past Friday was so fricking beautiful. The music was all soulful, all night, through hiphop, reggae, 80s, house and even a rock song or two. Over 300 folks came down and smushed in, and the dance floor was packed till 3:45 in the morning They didn't stop dancing till 4:30--security finally shut us down so they could go home! Big shout to all the heads that came through, including G Brown, Neil Nice, Big Jay, the old frat brothers, DJ Dread Preda, Ruben from Kromozomes, Forrest from Tuesdays at Joe's Pub and anyone else I forgot. It was a beautiful time. Thank God (every week) it's Freedom!!!

Don't forget: You can start recycling glass again.

Peace, love, good health and lots of exercise,

DJ Herbert
