The Republican candidate for President is named John McCain, he’s not John McClane the guy from Die Hard.

Dreaming of Mitch Hedberg
You know, I’m sick of following my dreams, man. I’m just going to ask where they’re going and hook up with ’em later
Hurray for Jeff “Nigel Tufnel” Beck
Heart Full of Soul – The Yardbirds Over under Sideways Down – The Yardbirds Stroll On – The Yardbirds The Yardbirds of course at one time featured the incendiary guitar work of gods in waiting, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page. God I hate when I hear that crap. Clapton might have done some …
Hi Ho Silver Lining
This may have inspired Spinal Tap and you can hear why Jeff Beck’s been having to deal with big ego’d singers forever, but I love it nonetheless.
Super Morbidly Obese?
I heard Howard Stern talking about super morbidly obese people this morning. First off I feel bad for these people. If you’re a little overweight, it’s probably something that you should deal with, but if they need two adjectives to go with your obesity, you’re obviously just fucked and it’s probably time for your family …
Baby Blue
I’ve been holding out so long I’ve been sleeping all alone Lord I miss you Well, I’ve been haunted in my sleep You’ve been starring in my dreams Lord I miss you The special love I had for you, my baby blue
Pete Townshend hearts Roger Daltrey
Usually rock bands are a group of friends, who become famous, fight over power and money and wind up hating each other, especially when they have to hang up their pride in order to put on a smile during their cash in reunion tour. I’d give anything to be a fly on the wall backstage at …
(Just like) Romeo and Juliet
(Just Like) Romeo and Juliet – The Reflections This song has a killer twist to it. Whenever a guy is laying out his rap to a girl and mentioning Romeo and Juliet, you’re always thinking that he means that he and his mate will have a love so intense that it will match the greatest …
The always entertaining Phil Laak
Dude played the main event of the World Series of Poker in a costume, busted out and nobody figured it out until much later. Hilarious!
Crime survives – barely – but you know more upbeat than that
While this fact – dramatic enough – is beyond dispute, the ninety-year-old Adams’s last words as they have come down to us, “Keith Crime  survives,” seem a bit too perfectly constructed. Yet no historian ever questioned them.
Nice Lie – Alfred
Remember that Friends elevator where they killed off Joey’s character because he claimed he wrote his own lines. If you’re Michael Caine, you can apparently get away with it. “”I always make up my own back stories for my characters,” says Michael Caine. “Nobody cares but me, but I do it anyway. And my backstory …
Are you going to watch Beavis and Buckhead?
The number of women who have been related to me and willing to spoil me beyond belief is probably what makes me the fantastic failure that I am today. I’ve both been well loved and well coddled. As I said, I lived with my Grandparents for a while – It was during my blue period …

Wow – American Idol has done good things
And I don’t mean in a Hitler loved dogs way either. Jeff Buckley’s “Hallelujah” hit number one because a stoned Spanish kid dug it and sang it on that show. Decide yourself if that and and this song about the inspiration of Patti Smith make you forgive them for creating the term Faux-hawk. Stolen from …
Two Bozo’s Kick the Bucket
Jesse Helms and Bozo – Gonzo! Wow, this is just like when Thomas Jefferson and John Adams both held out and died on the 4th of July. I join all you racist homophobes and clown lovers on the day of national tragedy. Well, at least now African Americans and Ted Bundy have a reason to …
Katy Perry’s in Vogue!
I just heard that Madonna said her new favorite song was Katy Perry’s “Ur So Gay.” Quite the complement because Perry’s video for “I Kissed a Girl” isn’t just a slight Madonna homage, it’s practically a Madge’s greatest poses retrospective. Has any song not by Madonna been so cravenly and crassly produced as Katy’s video? The director has to …
