Jeffrey Lee Pierce: stoned

Jeffrey Lee liked his telephone; it was shaped like a black woman's breast. The 4 and 6 buttons were silicone nipples, with hand-painted areola extending almost to the edge of the dial.

Normally Jeffrey Lee hated calling his 84-year-old mother, but she'd just gotten a new cell phone for Christmas. He licked his lips and started dialing. "Here we go: one, four-four-four, four-four-four-..." He shrieked. "This isn't titty milk, this is not--STONE, WHY THE FUCK IS THERE SEMEN ON THE 6?"

Stone Gossard rushed into the living room and ran Jeffrey Lee through the chest with his massive ding-a-ling.
