Wow. Not sure how I missed this. Here's Dante's video for "Tucker Stomp" we had a great time making this record in Detroit. Dante is easily one of the most ambitious and creatively honest hip-hop artist I've ever worked with.

At least that's what I though, as I lay in bed at Hahnemann Hospital after emergency surgery fo my displaced femoral neck fracture. See, the morphine machine had a sweet spot. It would beep after a satisfying click of the hand held control and administer it's gods. The bed's controls also had a sweet spot. I could press across the control without result until I came to that spot in the center that sent my legs up or down to the perfect spot. But there was one button without a sweet spot in the room. The call button, the 'help' button, the 'more endocet, stat' button. I could press and press with no click or beep to alert me to a successfull notification of my discomfort. It was only a few moments later, that the voice of the teacher from the Peanuts cartoon came shuttling into the room via loudspeaker as the voice of the nurses station call center. To make matters worse, the bottons were switched between my and my room mate ( a fidgety leg amputee who insisted on taking sugar packets with his percocet) So my call would alert his nurse and his call mine. And the speaker/microphone system was so poor that no one could understand anyone. It got to the point on Friday night that I would call for a nurse and just say "bnoogah blah goobah huweay", and "be right there" would be the reply. It was infuriating and funny. Just like this whole temporary disability situation.
Great care at Hahnemann Hospital though. I'm recovering well. I'll post X Ray photos next week after I get the stitches out. Bnogbah!
