yeah well I'm either slow or ignorant or both but I don't get the pan american highway and st-elisabeth connection. I think elisabeth means something lie abundance... maybe it makes you think about the abundance of roads in america... I don't know, im kinda lost.

that means soda, thank you for this opportunity to remind floop (and tell you) that Frank was born at St. Elizabeth's, a hospital in Brighton, Mass., and not in Long Beach, Calif. Not only has Frank set the record straight himself (he posted about this fact which floop seems to "forget") but Frank also mentions it in that fantastic subtle-but-umistakaable Frank way in the song PanAmerican Highway (opening line: "I finally got my turn down at St. Elizabeth's").

and totally unrelated, but providing a Frank-like thrill nonetheless, St. Elizabeth is also a bar off of St. Catherine E in Montreal.

don't listen to kathryn. it's a well-documented fact that Frank is from Long Beach. just do a search for yourself... :)

oh well thanks for the information... I never liked the st-elisabeth bar that much; but now that I've attached this frank black fact to it, it'll make the evenings there seem almost neat.

what are the signs I should be looking for to recognize such a bar? my only west-coast beach memory is of a dead cow on the sand... well maybe it wasn't exactly a cow, because it was 2 a.m. and we couldn't see well, and also we were all blind drunk. might have been a goat.

ah, also, not supposed to close the place so I can go watch a hockey game in the bar on the other side of the street...




i guess closing the store and having your weekly street-hockey game on the roof would be out of the question as well, eh?


you're not even supposed to be there today!


im old and boring and hate stuff

That doesn't quite look like a horse though,
looks more like a llama...

Why would anyone do that to a horse? It has to be a llama.
