A Little Drunk, but This is Weird: Roy Orbison

I still haven't heard back from Bazbo. I called her a couple of times tonight.

And now maybe I've had a little whiskey. You wanna make something of it?

The photo I took was just a photo of some trees, all kinda blurry, none too exciting.

It's this disc that's weirded out, man. First I put it in the stereo, and it was just this screechy howly noise. So, okay, I put it in my computer, and it said I didn't have the software to open it. I tried opening it as a text file, but just got a bunch of computer numbery junk.

So then a little bit ago I put it in my DVD player. That did the trick.

It's this little movie that looks like old surveillance video. The time sig tag in the corner says "Jul 7 1979" and it's just Roy Orbison sitting at a table in a kitchen, eating dog food off a frisbee with a wooden spoon. This big Alpo can is on the table next to the frisbee. I can't tell what flavor it is. The footage is all black and white and smudgy, but sure enough that's Roy Orbison, with those glasses and that hair.

Why was Roy Orbison eating dog food off a frisbee with a wooden spoon? Why was it videotaped? Why's that coming through the Chute Room?

Where's Bazbo?

What flavor is the Alpo? I think that could be important.
