I don't like Jeph Loeb. I don't mean as a person, I'm sure he's a great guy. I just don't like anything I've read that he's written. Now granted I've not read Batman Long Halloween and that's the one every tells me is the gem, but Batman is like most other… Continue reading
Eleven things that really bother me. 1) Advertising. 2) People who write books with titles like ‘Quantum Wellness' or ‘Harmoic Wealth'. Hmmm… let's see what Merriam-Webster defines Quantum as on their site: 1 a : quantity, amount b :… Continue reading
I have to admit that over the last couple of years I have developed a bit of a fascination with the early-to-mid seventies. Part of this I believe has stemmed from the many thrift store runs my wife and I make. I always find myself drawn to things from about… Continue reading
I need some new Mike Patton. Really, it's been too long. I've been playing Peeping Tom over and over again, re-absorbing the whole amazing album and all it's amalgamations of music, wrapped around the best goddamn voice in the business. But I need more…… Continue reading
I know it's fairly popular to dis Johnny Depp these days. I myself posted something within the last 6 months or so that, while not necessarily a dis was a venting of disappointment in the man for being in yet another Tim Burton make-up remake extravaganza. It… Continue reading
I have always loved David Lee Roth. He is the absolute epitome of everything I hate about glam rock from the 80's but somehow I love it on him. The ripped, multi-coloured jeans, the feathered hair, scarves, coquettish staring into mirrors, etc – these are the… Continue reading
… I miss it. Recently I broke out my House of Pain* albums, all two of them, and took a trip back to when hip hop was cool. I was really into Ice-T when I was in Jr. High. This was of course partially because I was a chode, as most guys are at 14,… Continue reading
Hot Damn I love The Rolling Stones!!! Oh, I don't mean The Rolling Stones we have touring the world on a seemingly continuous basis now a days. No, I don't hate that corporate monstrosity, but I have no interest in it either. To me it doesn't exist, meaning… Continue reading
Two weeks ago tomorrow I was in Chicago for the Jesus Lizard's first show in ten years*. I pretty much flew home just for the event. Not that I don't go home every year to see my friends and family, but I never go in fucking July, that is for sure. I moved to… Continue reading
Okay, admission: I know GIJOE is going to be bad. I wish I could say otherswise, but really? I know it, I know it, I know it. ‘Nuff said, right? Wrong. I have, quite literally, waited for this movie for most of my life. I can remember being in first or… Continue reading
If you would like to hear dialogue like this delivered whole-heartedly from people dressed like el debarge rejects I strongly suggest going back and reacquainting yourself (or maybe for the first time) with Miami Vice. No, not the movie update Michael Mann… Continue reading
Far more scholarly discussions about the absolute genius of Peter Sellers are accessible for you to read. I'm not about to waste your time trying to analyze his many roles or his life. What I do want to go on the record as saying is my own opinion, which is… Continue reading
