Buddy Miles – “Them Changes”
Today on Happy Days, two dudes showed up at Arnold’s today looking for “the mechanic”. They said that they were Hollywood talent scouts. Of course, I immediately knew that they were actually gangsters or foreign spies, and Potsie and Ralph should not have told them where Fonzie was.
Then I realized they probably really were talent scouts, and I’ve just seen too many episodes of The Monkees.
Putting my breakfast into the food tracker this morning, I’m all “two eggs and a banana!”
New Monkees – “What I Want (For Christmas)”

How I’m gonna die: falling down the stairs because I was dancing to “I’ll Be Back Upon My Feet”.
A word here about all the traveling: It’s very complicated, and for the purposes of the official schedule, there was a personnel code which listed us under our Code Numbers rather than our names–making scheduling easier. Micky was given number 1, Peter had number 2, Mike had number 3, Davy had number 4, and I had number 10.
