close encounters of the 3rd kind

it's no secret that i regularly drive by wayne coyne's house, just to catch a glimpse of a local hero. well friends, yesterday my hours of stalking finally paid off! on the way to see a friend's baby at the hospital, i decided to swing by nw13th & blackwelder (its only like a mile and a half from our house). mounted upon my trusty scooter, i rounded the bend to see a large semi- truck/ trailer (presumably filled with touring equipment) parked out front of wayne manor. as i drew closer, i noticed that the gates to the large privacy fence they have recently erected (i wonder why?) were open, and who did i see in his own back yard but master wayne himself! in case you are wondering, yes, i do feel a deep sense of satisfaction that extends now to every corner of my being, and yes, it is something that you can only wish to understand, and no, this does not mean that i will discontinue my weekly forays into the ghetto to chance upon another rendezvous. ahhhhh.....
