    I love Tom Waits. One of my favorite lines is from Nighthawk Postcards (From Easystreet)

    I got my lips around a bottle
    And I got my foot on the throttle and I'm standing on the corner
    Standing on the corner like a just got in town Jasper
    I'm on a street corner with a gasper
    Looking for some kind of a Cheshire billboard grin
    Stroking a goateed chin
    Using parking meters as walking sticks
    Yeah, on the inebriated stroll
    With my eyelids propped open at half mast

      Well this market burned down. I may have mangled the lyrics a bit :) It's from a really great album.

            Great job! I was on a Tom Waits kick a while ago and I listened to a bunch of his stuff on Spotify that I had never heard before. In the US we only got a couple of his hits If I recall correctly.
