Trusted, Time and Prison Food are my absolute favorites. I don't think there's a bad song on the album.

Prison Food is the only song that I'm really into. The rest I don't really have the urge to go back and listen to a lot. It just has like.. a classic, like almost 60's/70's rock sound to me. I want ben to make an entire album with whatever it is in Prison Food that makes me like it so much. I feel like if he did, he'd have a classic album on his hands.

Prison Food is great because of the jam element of it. Its a bit raw-er than his carefully constructed songs.
What I dont like is that the lyrics came later. You can tell, and it takes away a lot of what makes Ben great.

Judy, You To Thank, and I absolutely cannot get enough of Late.

I don't think the CD has left my Walkman since I got it, except for that one time I wanted to hear some Steely Dan... mmm... Hatian Divorce, The Fez...

Me: Work is kinda fun. I ride buses, count folks.
Josh: like inventory
Me: essentially, merch is different than any I've had
Josh: this could prepare you for bigger things in the world of selling people. i'm seeing fur coats, canes, and goblets in your future.

All you do is hate life and tell me about it
You're a homosexual, just keep me out of it
All your music sounds the same
I don't even like your art fag name

More importantly, I skip over:

Gracie and Late

Goldfish is neat. But like the live album, probably won't get much listen out of moi.

Call me a dork, but Gracie is my number one favorite, followed by you to thank, and judy. But those could change as I listen to the album over and over.....andoverandoverandover again.
