The Funny Bone, Fairview Heights, Illinois, September 5, 2004

I'm visiting my St. Louis friend Pete Lytle, who's hospitality is unmatched, including a chance to play fetch with a black Lab, and his arrangement of a guest set for me at the Fairview Heights Funny Bone.

The Fairview Heights Bone ROCKS.  Here are the guys post-show.  From left: Bobby, a regular; Sean Rouse, the headliner; my friend Pete, who's MCing; and Jeremy, the feature.

Photos from the next day, Monday:

Here's the lovely Lacy, Pete's dog, getting some love from Dakota, Pete's very cool son.

Me with my new buddy Lacy, who slept with me last night.

Leaving St. Louis, I return to Randy's.  On the way, I follow a truck filled with what must be over a hundred piglets.  Sorry the photo isn't any better.  Blame the rain.  But take my word for it: it's the most cuteness a truck could possibly haul.
