The Corn In My Shit

About Me

Rather than post anything about what I "like", "love", "am into" or whatever empty Laguna Beach-inspired jargon is used to convey my "preferences", let's just do a quick rundown of what I HATE/DISLIKE/ABHOR/LOATHE, in no particular hierarchy: political conservatives, social conservatives, sexual conservatives, conservatives of any other ilk, the New York Yankees, the faggotty mainstream emo-crap band called Fall Out At The AFI Disco, MTV, Real Madrid, the Bush Administration, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, whatever adoption agency that brokered Lionel Richie's adoption of Nicole Richie, the Simpson sisters, XTina's "voice", Beyoncé's angry-diva schtick, bedwetter music, Barry Bonds' melon head,
ugly people who dye their hair or find some gimmick to make them look jaded and serve as an alibi for their celibacy, Fidel Castro and Hugo Chávez, people who can't take a joke, cancer, AIDS, MTV, reality TV, Star Jones-Reynolds, that tranny Ann Coulter and her disgusting Adam's Apple,
Log Cabin Republicans, the GOP's Black Caucus,organized religion, everything Radiohead's done after "OK Computer", middle-aged men developing a political conscience and wearing eye-liner, Green Day, airheads, adultery, child molesters, encroachment of Civil Rights, militarization, Mike Love, Tony Blair's betrayal of the Left, Puerto Rico's concert schedule, movies starring Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd at the same time, boob jobs, the use of the word "diva" to describe anybody other than Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo or María Callas, the idea that the rest of the world has caught up to the US in basketball, Don King, some unions, ethnocentrists, real racists, real homophobes, Tipper Gore, MTV, VH1 Classic's TV schedule, Joe Lieberman, ESPN Classic's TV Schedule, white men trying to speak ebonics, certain family members, abuses of power, stupidity, self-enforced lack of education, Puerto Rican insularism, pickup lines, Demi Moore's breasts, Demi Moore's acting, "Friends", chauvinism and MTV.
WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR!!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Thomas Hardy, Richard Wright (the novelist, not the shitty Goalkeeper), Roberto Clemente, .. Gram Parsons, D.Boon, George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Sugar Ray Robinson, Satchel Paige, George Best, .. Bessie Smith, Huey Newton, Thomas Paine, Bobby Moore, John McGraw, the 1986 Mets, Hal Richman, Seka, Fyodor Dostoyesky (I'm sounding self-important now, I know), Cepillín, the Road Warriors, Janis Joplin, Bill Hicks, ..Eugene Debs, anybody who landed on Omaha Beach, any Martins or McClellans in Lansing, Michigan (please write to me if you exist!), Carlos Monzón, Otis Redding, Steve Earle, Johnny Cash, The Boss, "Freewheelin' Bob Dylan"-era Bob Dylan, whoever invented oral sex, Clarence Darrow, John Brown, Lou Reed (ignored at the VMA's by Fall Out Boy-listening airheads), Muddy Waters, Serge Gainsbourg, FDR, César Chávez, Alexander Cartwright, Steve McQueen, Rube Foster, Syd Barret, (why not?!?) Jesus Christ, the motherfucker who stole about 100 of my CD's from my apartment in Florida, and of course, my Dad, both my Grandpas, and my Grandma.I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!

Music:

Not necessarily my "favorite" music, but artists that need to be mentioned, inasmuch as they are ignored by the mainstream media: Alejandro Escovedo, The Decembrists, Drive-By Truckers, Marah, The Shins, My Morning Jacket, Calexico, Todd Snider, Josh Ritter, Art Brut, Josh Rouse, the legendary Mission Of Burma (making great music again), any Elephant 6 bands, Nellie McKay, The Living Things, Brendan Benson (solo, although at least he's getting some exposure with The Raconteurs), Gomez, José González, Mew.In this installment of the Concert Series, Tom Waits does "Hoist That Rag" with the great Marc Ribot on guitar:

Television:

..In this, the initial installment of LefTV, Keith Olbermann takes the Bush Administration to task for squandering and abusing the good will and unity born out of 9-11. "May this nation forgive you, Mr. President." Fucking brilliant! Then, Olbermann refutes the Right's claim that 9-11 was Clinton's fault. Enjoy and learn!Bill Maher busts the Right's cowardly taunts of "un-patriotic" to those who expose their bullshit and outright lies:The great Conor Oberst shocks and awes Jay "Get Me Another Dorito" Leno and performs "When The President Talks To God"!!

Heroes:

..

.."Boring, boring Arsenal!!", from Charlie George to Ray Parlour to Patrick Viera and, of course, the day I became a Gunner and Marc Overmars fan.

Update on some pending issues...

I am devastated to report that the Clyde Drexler-on-Dancing With the Stars experience was actually FAR worse than what I initially feared. He was probably the worst dancer of the lot, being out-danced...

Ann Coulter is beyond hatred...

Yes, I admit, I've long wished with all the strength in my soul for Ann Coulter's death, preferably at the hands of a member of any one of the tens of groups of people she's wronged at one point or an...

A Short, Short Blog On (What Else?) Dishonest Republicans and Another Former Basketball Player

These Important Years

Three things peaked in the 1980's: 1) the NBA, 2) professional wrestling, and 3) porn. These were the years when giants walked amongst puny men... The names "Jordan", "Bird", "Magic", "Flair", "Hogan"...

Being Puerto Rican... What's To Like/What's Not To Like?!?!

I am Puerto Rican. That is no big deal to me... I mean, I'm not ashamed of being Puerto Rican, the conduct of half of Kissimmee and South Bronx notwithstanding, but it's not like I derive a Rudolf Hes...
