What if either Sarah Palin or Dr. Laura had to be the next president? Who would you choose? It’s blowing my mind. Sarah Palin would be incompetence personified, but Dr. Laura could make Hitler’s reign look like a reasoned attempt at civility.
I was reading a top ten list of the greatest drummers of all time, and I saw in the comment section someone joke that Mickey Dolenz of the Monkees was the worst drummer ever.
I found this funny not because Dolenz is a great drummer (although I think he did get good eventually), but because the drumming on all of the early Monkees songs was done by Hal Blaine – who should have been on that top ten list and doesn’t have to bow to anyone either in skill or impact. So while it wasn’t Dolenz, the drumming on all of those songs was superb.
Hal Blaine if you don’t know is responsible for the greatest drum lick ever – the unreal “Be My Baby”, which aside from that killer opening riff is just a drum nuclear attack the whole way through.
Back to the Monkees – first person to explain why the Monkees aren’t in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but the Temptations are – well, it’s impossible and stupid.
Wow, that was a gruesome movie. Sometimes it was almost as disturbing as plastic surgery reality television.
You go in looking forward to some self pleasuring and lesbianism and you walk out thinking about knives and clubbed feet.
Danger Will Robinson, Danger.
I’m of the opinion that the only real thing shaving cream does is show morons where they still have yet to shave.
The Jimmy Fallon, Bruce Springsteen parody of Willow Smith’s Whip My Hair is a godsend. See one second you see Willow’s video and think “Oh my god the world has completely gone to seed.” Then a good parody make you feel that the whole world isn’t completely under Jay Leno’s evil reign. Jimmy previously gave the Neil Young treatment to Will’s “French Price of Bel Air.”
Some people are saying that Willow should re-record “Parents Just Don’t Understand” – I’m guessing Jimmy Fallow would again be the better choice.
By the way – since Dick Clark can barely speak anymore – I’ve decided that Jay Leno should take his place as the Anti-Christ of all that is mediocre and sold for a dollar (Blood Lucre or Wednesday to Sarah Palin). Dick had a nice run, but apparently like Lebron James may have said – Karma is a bitch.
