We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Now this just gives me a headache.
HUH? Chicken AND Hamsters...That's just not right--gravy or no! Thank goodness I'm not a chowder chuff!
Maybe these words have double meanings. "gravy" means missionary. "chowder" means reverse cowgirl..and well "hamster" just means hamster.
So let me get this straight, If I have ten berries I will potentially be a cream chowder chuff?
Chowder chuff = powder puff?
It *is* a waste of chicken, but chicken itself is a waste of flesh. Ick.
I LUV U GUYZ!
WTF? When someone in my family hack up a loogy someone always asks "Taste like chicken?" Gross.
WTF??????????????
personally, i've always thought that hamster tastes like chicken, and therefore the double hamster/chicken combination is redundant. So, I figure that someone was trying to make chicken cordon bleu, and thought that 'hamster' was an adequate replacement for 'ham'. yet another reminder to NEVER take shortcuts on recipies.
(we all ready know what happens when you try to make cream puffs substituting creamy chowder for cream...chowder puffs indeed. some people never learn)
someones been smoking craaaack
That wasn't sugar they sprinkled on his strawberries at the festival!
Either that or this guy got the ergot-infected strawberries and what we have now is a stream of consciousness dictation.
I think I KNOW that guy!!
...don't bogart that joint, my friend, pass it over to me...
Just rub mah leg and gimme hamsters!
Yeah, buddy, the party's backstage tonight!
WHAT.THE.HELL????
Sounds like a comic interlude for between songs, when everyone's been puffin' for some time anyway, so anything he said would be met with whoops of appreciative laughter...
Of COURSE gravy goes with fish, if it's fish gravy.
Eating hamsters is almost as immoral as eating guinea pigs.
I have a friend who writes like this and although he's a complete loony, it is always entertaining.
However, if you look deeper you can generally find a kernal of truth or something worth meditating upon.
In this note it is clearly this:
9 = to the power of ten.
Say it with me slowly now;
"9 = to the power of ten."
Now, doesn't that feel good?
I always thought chicken tasted like Bald Eagle.
well. my new reply to anything that's the least bit interesting is in this note.
Well... rub ma leg and gimme hamsters.
ohmmmmmm....9=to the power of ten.... ohmmmmmmm
you're right, alan, i do feel better. That is the truth and the way.
It looks like the strawberry festival is a great place to get acid too
I used to write things like this when I was 13 or so, except my spelling and punctuation were much better. I've never understood compulsive apostrophizers.
This guy starts out thinking about fish and food then moves to hampsters... everyone, watch out for your small housepets. At least while the Strawberry Music Festival is in town.
I've spent many, many years at Strawberry and I can attest to the truth of all that was written. Especially Dallas and his hamsters. This note must have been written on the evening of the first day, when 9 usually equals 10, but by the 4th day you achieve a full 2 = 10.
OK. I need help.
I just can't figure out the line:
"Ygah au got ten borrior"
What is it supposed to mean?
9 = to the power of ten
9 = to the power of ten
9 = to the power of ten
It's not working - can someone explain?
Yeah, I've got ten berries. But how to interpret it from there is anyone's guess.
I think it actually says 9=to the power of ron. (and apparently they're referring to ron berry here: tenth born of ten Berry children.) That reaally throws a monkey wrench into my personal cosmology.
It's all in code. 'Doe' s gravy... must write it down.. very important...
"just rub ma leg and gimme hamsters" is better than "well slap my ass and call me Nancy!"
Sure. Doe's Gravy is delicious with fish OR meat, and Buck's Gravy too.
I hate hamsters, I used to own two, Jack and Jill. One day Jack decided that his mate, Jill, looked more tastier than the every-day supply of pellets so when I got home that night there was Jack and beside him, Jill's bones. I have yet to determine whether there was gravy involved.
It may be that "ten is ten of ten Berry" ... but's there's only ONE Chuck Berry.
And I think the hamster-eating musician was on stage later in the Festival, way after Chuck was up. (Up? Chuck? Upchuck?)
Someone needs Ritalin.
I have been thinking exactly the same: Does gravy go with fish or just meat?
Jeez, great minds......
Ha! I read it as Doe's gravy the first time too! I don't like deer meat so I would say no to Doe's gravy- with fish or with meat. Blech!
And I think he has ten burritos, not berries. Although berries would make more sense at the Strawberry Festival.
Who am I kidding? None of it makes any sense! I think I killed some brain cells trying to read that.
Mojo, who is Dallas? (As if THAT will clear this whole thing right up???)
I'll add my "Huh?" to the chorus above. WTF?
This note isn't that surprising. I've been to the Strawberry music festival. I know what goes on there.

But you know, I wasn't sure about desert. Smores've been done and hey, do you use plain or flavored and sameasiteverwas fired bananas are cool except we forgot the pan. Ice cream sameasiteverwas is good, scratch my knees, tickle my fancy and sameasiteverwas an apple will do, you know?
John Lennon says 'strawberry tart' at the end of 'I am the Walrus.'
Do you think it's connected?
A note from the Strawberry Music Festival? I bet its just the lyrics for a song entitled "Hamster Power", notice the chorus: "Just rub ma leg and give me hamsters. What? Yeah!" I'm sure it will be a top 40 hit before the year is over.
Has anyone heard Patton Oswald's bit about Dr. Pepper at Open Mike Night? This sounds similar....
I think it's a heroin addict/comedian writing down stuff for his new stand up routine. He keeps blacking out and coming back in mid-thought. It's probably brilliant comedy - we're just missing pieces.

The disappointing factor for those of you hoping to partake of the hamster fish with doe gravy strawberry tarts is that the Fall 2008 Strawberry Music Festival is already sold out.
The confusing part is that the "Fall" festival is scheduled for 28-31 August. Which is still summer where I live.
Does gravy or Doe's (a female deer) gravy?
@ baby basil what's immoral about eating guinea pigs? I stayed with a family in a small town in Ecuador and guinea pigs are eaten on special occasions. The family I stayed cooked it for me and it was a big deal (it tastes like pork, not chicken). It's not as if they went to the pet store and picked on out to cook, they raised the guinea pigs just like people raise chickens. Also guinea pigs are used by shaman in a very sacred healing ceramony.
HAHA!! This is so random and off the wall, I love it!
Typeslowly, did the guinea pigs taste anything like Bald Eagles?
This makes NO SENSE, and it reminds me of my favorite surrealist joke:
Q: Why did the surrealist cross the road?
A: Blue fish
This sounds as nonsensical as some of the stuff that my neighbor says when she passes out on my couch.
Recipe for fun:
1. take 4 completely random thoughts
2. mix well
3. speak
4. hope no one has a tape recorder
Haha. When I saw the last line, I thought it said, "I luv u cuyz". I'm trying it if I ever make it to South America.
"Woah, dude, like, not only is ten is ten berry, but like, somewhere in the world right now it's 4:20 and like, dude, I think that somewhere is here."
Cheers to Nadine for that one!
The phrase "Taste of Chicken" reminds me of a Eddie Izzard rant.
As all of us know, hamsters aren't the most durable pets...the note is just plain weird...and...this person is probably in charge of drawing the signs for the Rard Sale.
I wonder if Rards go good with Chicken? Hmmm...food for thought. On second thought, I wonder if Rards taste like chicken?
The idea of eating hamster doesn't repulse me as much as the thought of gravy on fish.
Gravy does not go with fish. Sauce does, though.(Say fast 5 times: Miss Smith's fish sauce shop.)
The main point of this Find is stated clearly as "It doesn't really matter".
I can't say for certain whether hamsters taste like chicken but I have it on good authority that people don't. They taste like beef.
Just thought I'd bring the comments to an even higher level of gross today...
That's odd, Sadie, I always thought they tasted like pork.
Codfish Gravy....mmmmmmm
1 lb. or 1 pkg. salt cod fish
2 c. milk
3 tbsp. flour
2 tbsp. butter
Pepper
Soak cod fish in water overnight. Rinse and cover with water and boil until it flakes with a fork. Drain well.
In a saucepan heat milk, blend flour with a little milk to make a paste, add to milk. Stir well. Add butter and pepper. Serve hot over toast or boiled potatoes.
@Fooch: That's not gravy, that's white sauce! (Sounds delish, though. When's dinnertime?)
Manic depressive paranoid schizophrenic. I know one and this is just how he talks.
Whoa. I just ate some strawberries and Nutella. Strawberry music for sure!
haha, looks like a whole bunch of inside jokes.
Ahahaha!! KUDOS go out to Nadine for that joke!!!
Here's a silly one, too.
Why did the 'chicken' and 'hamster' cross the road?
Because the road crossed them!
I know...Nadine, your's is wayyyyy funnier and intelligent!
Check out what this "TEN BERRY" means????

If this is what the guy is referring too, he needs help AND meds, badly!
You doctors have been telling us to drink eight glasses of gravy a day!
Q: How many surrealists does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Fish!
I looked at this Find and went 'Whut??'
I 'm inclined to agree with Late in the day -- Manic depressive paranoid schizophrenic.
Otherwise it's Ross Noble having a more than usually wild flight of fancy (anyone see his 'Steven Hawking as a talking chimpanzee' number??).
This looks to me just like the "senior dedications" we got in the back of the yearbook when I was in school... people would basically do little squares full of in-jokes between their friends, and the limited amount of space they got made it even more abbreviated and nonsensical. Your friends would know what it meant, and no one else would be looking at 'em anyway, so it didn't matter if it made sense or not. People would have to write them out to give them to the yearbook staff, so I'm sure there were loose drafts floating around out there.
Actually, since this was found at a music festival, it makes perfect sense. Songwriters often take time to write down all the messed up stuff that's just running through their head, like built up thoughts that stay in the back of your head when you're trying to concentrate. They're meant to get rid of these excess thoughts so that the creative process can begin. It often comes out sounding silly and ridiculous, but they're not meant to be read by anyone. So you all have actually seen into a songwriter's prewriting process, I'd wager.
