About Me

I'm a rock n roll herbivore intellectual. I like good conversations, but I'm quite private actually. I love Morrissey, touring, reading, watching movies, and drinking strange imported beers. I'll listen to anything with good metaphors in the form of hurricanes, valleys, thunderstorms, and winding roads. Working class rock n roll hits home. Hard. Message me and say hello... unless you're ugly.

Top Ten of 2007

It's that time of year again. You know, the time where I tell you all what you should be listening to, because this year (besides a few true gems) sucked for music. In any case, there were a few surpr...

Dear NME...

Please stop trying so hard to stir up controversey to sell copies of your magazine. It's trite, tacky, hurtful, and offensive. If indeed Morrissey was a racist, the people who have been listening to h...

At the bottom of a tributary

After listening to "Grace" five times in a row last night, I truly feel like I was robbed. Buckley's drowning is certainly on par with the death of Lennon...but at least Beatles had him...

The engine turns on a dime

But I ain't goin' nowhere tonight. ...And I don't want to. I've been finding myself completely in awe of certain people lately. Scratch that, certain people's work. As inspired as I've felt after my M...

Stop me if you think that you’ve heard this one before

...And you have. The man killed it last night. It's official, Saturday beats the hell out of Tuesday. He came out to a much more enthusiastic bunch, adorning a tuxedo and delivering "Stop Me..." like ...

Two icy cold hands conducting the way

It's the New Jersey blood in my veins. Day one of Morrissey-week lived up to the hype I've culminated solely...or soul-ly if you're asking Chris. 'Stretch Out and Wait' was played, my body c...

It seems if you're rich and you're white, you think you're so right.

I work as a bartender, and party manager at a banquet hall quite frequently when I'm not busy. It pays well, and I like the people there. Today, I pulled into the lot just as one of the Mexican kitche...

42" Plasma FTW!

I just spoiled myself by buying the new Pioneer PDP4280 Plasma. It's 42" and is waaaay bigger than I originally anticipated. It seriously takes up an entire wall. I'm watching pre-season football on i...

4:00am Hilarity

This is the best thing I've read all night. I'm aware that the DS has a bunch of oddball niche titles in Japan, but now the lucky girls in the US get to experience baby care, cooking, and fashion desi...
