Someone very famous and quotable, whose name I have forgotten, said, “All art aspires to the condition of music.” I hate that that seems to be true. Especially because there were a number of times in my upbringing when I was offered music lessons of one sort or another.
The first time was when I was [...]
My sister hates the term White Trash. At least when it is applied to my family. Or when it is applied to the parts of my family she likes. And not for the reasons that political correctness would dictate, that is not a discussion anyone outside of college campuses actually has, especially not [...]
Well we have, very unfortunately, had some technical trouble with the video of Ben Lillie. Unless you really know what you are doing on a technical level, and I assure you I do not, then technology either cooperates or it doesn’t. Very much sucks because it was a great story on Ben’s part. In the [...]
That's how I got 'em, see. I got 'em hooked. Poppers, dopers, uppers, screamers, whatever it took to keep them comin' back for more! That was my game.
When I think about past dramas, two particular relationships come to mind. I enjoyed both, the highs and lows, the constant struggle for who had the upper [...]

And thanks to my lovely research assistant (Cyndi, sitting on [...]
Early days of MTV, when videos were still weird. Although it has to be said that Joe Jackson’s videos weren’t that bizarre. Not when you compare them to things like “The Warrior” by Scandal. There was this whole period of poorly assembled post apocalyptic waste lands compiled on what were obviously sound studios. All the [...]
Sometimes you just need a few words of wisdom and inspiration. And sometimes you need them to come from under the best mustache in the history of cinema.

This is the band I always wanted to be in. BTK is pretty close.
The church I belonged to as a kid had a tape burning one time. A few things can be taken from that statement. First, books weren’t being burned, so no one was really concerned that we would take up reading anytime [...]
I went on a date with this girl once. One date, one time. She was a fashion model and the date had been set up by a very meddlesome film producer. So, you get an idea of what world we are dealing with here. I go on this date and it turns out that, how [...]
