I’m not saying you kids out there should take acid before you play sports. I’m just saying it worked for Dock Ellis, who threw a no-hitter in 1970 while he was on LSD. The following video is well-done and pretty hilarious. Read the rest of this entry »

Apparently Charles Manson just turned 75 in prison. And I totally forgot to send him a card. Sorry Charlie. Read the rest of this entry »

If you’re a douchbag or not, this should clear some things up (some foul language which, if it upsets you, has nothing to do with me). Read the rest of this entry »

Well .. yeah.

Specifically, I’m looking for people who would like to talk – or even just e-mail me – about the time-honored tradition of screwing up the Thanksgiving turkey with an electric knife. Actually, you don’t have to have stories about screwing it up. Just good stories or thoughts. Read the rest of this entry »

For those of you waiting for the Them Crooked Vultures record, they’ve started streaming it. Click here.  Just hearing Dave Grohl play drums again on a full album is worth repeated listenings. Never mind how good the rest of it sounds on first listen. Read the rest of this entry »

This is kind of hard to believe, considering all they’ve been through the past 40-odd years, but there’s real talk that this latest spat within Aerosmith has lead to Steven Tyler quitting the band. Read the rest of this entry »

So it’s Thursday, Nov. 5 – five days after Halloween. And I still can’t bring myself to bring down my decor.

I have zombies coming out of the ground, gravestones, pirate skeletons hanging from the porch and other associated bloody things lying about.

Oh, well NOW it all makes perfect sense.
TMZ reports today that the reason that the child involved with the 1993 molestation allegations against Michael Jackson could identify marks Jackson’s penis (LALALALALA don’t think don’t think don’t think) is because Michael had a delightful habit of urinating in front of people.

A TMZ reporter spent three hours with Arnold Klein, one of Jackson’s many doctors and closest friends. Klein insisted Jackson didn’t molest the boy … he only peed in front of him. And everybody else.
Klein said Jackson also used to pee at Klein’s office … and his house … in front of groups of people.
Oh, that Michael. He was so eccentric.
