OK, I realize I am three days early but I'd like to acknowledge the fact that Frank's birthday is on February twelfth. You may think it's pointless to randomly make a whole thread about it but he was a genius musically and otherwise so I'd appreciate it if you at least gave him some thought on his birthday.

In honor of Frank, I'd just like to say: "Take your medications and your preparations and ram it up your snout!"

Any other words of wisdom we can quote from Frank?

Peace.

The world became a duller, less interesting place the day FZ died. I recently read a news story about a man who died after his wife gave him a sherry enema - perfect material for a catchy number in 17/12 time with a slight reggae accent in the instrumental break.

The Muffin Man is seated at the table in the laboratory of the Utility Muffin Research Kitchen... Reaching for an oversized chrome spoon he gathers an intimate quantity of dried muffin remnants and brushing his scapular aside procceds to dump these inside of his shirt...
He turns to us and speaks:

"SOME PEOPLE LIKE CUPCAKES BETTER. I FOR ONE CARE LESS FOR THEM!"

Arrogantly twisting the sterile canvas snoot of a fully charged icing anointment utensil he poots forths a quarter-ounce green rosette (oh ah yuk yuk... let's try that again...!) He poots forth a quarter-ounce green rosette near the summit of a dense but radiant muffin of his own design.
Later he says:

"SOME PEOPLE... SOME PEOPLE LIKE CUPCAKES EXCLUSIVELY, WHILE MYSELF, I SAY THERE IS NAUGHT NOR OUGHT THERE BE NOTHING SO EXALTED ON THE FACE OF GOD'S GREY EARTH AS THAT PRINCE OF FOODS... THE MUFFIN
