“SING YOUR LIFE”
Wednesday evening, I attended the CD release party for Let’s Get Out of This Terrible Sandwich Shop, a fantastic band, described as “The Archies and The Zodiac Killer sitting down together to watch a cable-scrambled broadcast of Mr. Show, but with more Farfisa”. That might be right, but I keep thinking stripped-down-to-only-the-best-stuff B52’s, [...]

"ALSATIAN COUSIN"

So, my cousin Matt got married this past weekend and I headed back east for the event. He has three small daughters from his first marriage and the bride has three young sons from her first marriage, so it was a very Brady affair. The reception was at a local bed and breakfast kind of [...]

"GLAMOUROUS GLUE"

Due to a terrible miscommunication and some good intentions, I ended up eating some smuggled chicken stock last night, served by an aborablde Hungarian grandma who later showed her boobs. Anyway. Some vegetarians are sensitive, some are not. I am. Few things are finer than waking up in the middle of the night to shit [...]

"I DON’T OWE YOU ANYTHING"

Today, was glorious. I was bobbing my head to Placebo’s cover of the song this blog is named for, walking again to the corner store where there has been weird shit lately. Near the door, I stretched my arm a bit, as I sometimes have this odd elbow issue. A guy was exiting as I [...]
