...hand and leading you to Mars where we WANT the funk, we GOT TO HAVE that funk. No sir Sir Nose D'Voidof Funk. And psychadelics and psychadelia and even th'MOTHERS turn this mother out and acid laced and Acapulco Brick & 40 acres and a mule & hash for everyone. Casper the Holy Ghost and Bootsy's Rubber Band.

Along with other legendarily soaked cities like Portland, Ore., and Vancouver, B.C., Seattle has imposed water restrictions, urging citizens to take shorter showers and banning the use of lawn sprinklers. The lush, green vegetation has begun to turn brown. Mule deer does are having trouble finding enough food in the woods to produce milk for their fawns. The spring chinook salmon run on Oregon's Rogue River had the largest die-off level in 15 years, attributed in part to low water levels. The situation is worst in Oregon, whose drought...
