Tainted Cow..wasn't that a hit for Soft Cellwent something like
.
Sometimes I feel I've got to 
Run away I've got to 
Get away from the pain 
Your driving into the heart of me 
The love we shared 
Seems to go nowhere 
But I lost my ride 
For I toss and turn 
Can't sleep at night 

Once I ran to you 
Now I run from you 
The tainted cow you've given 
Gave you all a boy could give ya 
Now take that give that 
That's not livin' 
Ahh 

Now I know I've got to run away 
I've got to get away 
You really don't want anymore from me 
You make things right 
You need someone to hold you tight 
And you think love is to break 
But I'm sorry but I don't play that way 

Once I ran to you 
Now I run from you 
The tainted cow you've given 
Gave you all a boy could give ya 
Now take that give that 
That's not livin' 
Ahh

Tainted cow 
Don't touch me please 
I cannot stand the way you tease 
I love you although you hurt me so 
Now it's time to take my things and go 
Tainted cow 
Tainted cow 
Tainted cow 
Tainted cow

Allen sez he's sending me peanuts. I loves peanuts: 
especially Cajun peanuts! (I visited the Isleton
(California) Crawdad Festival this weekend while shopping
for cheap boats in the Delta. Nice 'n' hot. Biker babes but
interesting ingrained folks too. Thinking of
buying/renting-out a little houseboat there as a floating
artist's studio, when I'm not using it: a remarkable area:
over a thousand miles of inland sloughs... great for
birdwatching... finally spotted the namesakes of Owl Harbor,
where I'd be keeping the S.S. Minnow... beautiful.)

The half-dozen rogers that are likely to take over your yard
if not kept under control are:

* Aegopodium podagraria -- better known as gout or bishops
weed. It is also called Queen Anne's Lace although this name
is often reserved for another member of the carrot family.
There are two forms of this ground cover plant, one plain
green (Gout) and the other variegated (Bishops).

var·i·e·gate (vâr--gt, vâr-gt, vr-) tr.v. var·i·e·gat·ed,
var·i·e·gat·ing, var·i·e·gates

1.To change the appearance of, especially by marking with
different colors; streak. 2.To give variety to; make varied.

Roger writes:  hey, Brad
I'd love some magic beans
How much money should I send?

brad replies: Roger: it's not that simple.

Roger responds:

Why? Can only Allen buy the beans? Is it that I have to send
ALL my money? Is it that I didn't send the money
quickly enough? Were you lying about the money?
Is it that the exchange rate between US and UK is not
to your liking? Are the planets in unfavourable positions?
Are you worried that I may not have adequate storage facilities
to keep the magic beans fresh and their magic sharp?
Are you perturbed that I might do
something stupid with the beans, something that I'll later regret and that,
as supplier of the beans, you may in some way become implicated and
find yourself in prison? Is it that the beans exert some kind of hold upon
you, and that you cannot bear to let them go? You want to sell them but
just can't bring yourself to do it? Have you lost them? Are they not really
yours
to sell? Are they part of a magic set that you don't want to split up?
Are they right now in the stomach of your dog who mistook them for
ordinary beans and ate them and you are waiting for nature to take its
course?
Are they just being unco-operative and refusing to go?

I have a cow.
Could we maybe barter?

I would agree in general terms but reverse this so that viewed differences
(or named distinctions) amount to everything - if I am to call something
by two different names it becomes two entities, regardless of actual or
perceived similarities or differences - the word makes the world in a way.

What is the difference between Bishops weed and Gout weed?

"... so that by now I've got a string of names and
identities like you wouldn't believe. At times I forget what
I was like originally." 

Exactly on the dot, like a cuckoo-clock. 

We can, if we so chose, wander aimlessly over the continent
of the arbitrary. Rootless as some winged seed blown about
on a serendipitous spring breeze.

Nonetheless, we can in the same breath deny that there is
any such thing as coincidence. What's done is done, what's
yet to be is clearly yet to be, and so on. In other words,
sandwiched as we are between the "everything" that is behind
us and the "zero" beyond us, ours is a ephemeral existence
in which there is neither coincidence nor possibility.

In actual practice, however, distinctions between the two
interpretations amount to precious little. A state of
affairs (as with most face-offs between interpretations) not
unlike calling the same food by two different names.

So much for metaphors.
