| "I Ride A Hog" is the title track on our new enhanced EP, which includes QuickTime video footage of our live show at the 2002 Harley Davidson-Buell International Dealer's Meeting at the Mecca in Milwaukee, WI. The moral: If you say Wisconsin ain't nothin' but cheese, you never had a Harley between your knees." Nuff said. |

| "Other People Say" addresses the human phenomenon of "the more you know, the less you know"....or, more precisely, "the more we know, the more we realize how much we don't know." It seems that the wisest people are usually not the loudest, most outspoken folks--they'll tell you their modest opinion if you ask 'em, but otherwise, they tend to keep their mouths shut and their eyes and ears open. Experience often speaks volumes without saying a word. I've already said too much. |
