Random Q: Was "Tender Buttons" names after the album by Broadcast or the Gertrude Stein book?

Lol! My partner John's sister is a poet, and she had a kitty she had named Tender Buttons. I thought it was a fantastic name. Now I know where it came from, thank you very much. Gerdy. For sure. Maggie was a big fan, apparently. Maggie's poetry: https://www.amazon.com/Earth-Holds-Mary-Holman-Tuteur/dp/1941066607

Oh Belinda what a cluster f---. Karma is a b!tch isn't it. Took me a while after my snorting and giggling subsided to be able to post my reply. Suffice it to say- made my day! 😆

Well, that's good, the snorting and giggling. Had fun writing this. My pre-surgery brain is returning. Please feel free to suggest any topics that need a going over.

Chris - this is brilliant! as in f****g brilliant. I laughed - I cried and winced and chuckled and read my kountry's kulture ('cept for the liberal scum part) all in the same read - and the sentences are just really too good. LMAO "....tenderly putting a loaf of Dave’s Killer Bread under my head." *tenderly!* that's how Dave would do it! More please! Fans want to know did Dan ever a proper bra? He really needs the support in that area...

😂 Yeah, Dan does need a bra. I'm thinking the Calvin Klein Outlet in Petaluma. They won't judge. "Liberal scum" — that's like the drippings on the bottom of the pot roast pan. So wonderfully good you'll want to put your wife in a hot bubble bath, then volunteer to do the dinner dishes (where you can mop up the pan juice with a slice of Dave's Killer Bread).
