I sang "I Am the Walrus" and it damned nearly killed me. Do you know how much energy it takes to make up for a lack of talent and skill?
Man, I hate stupid little magic tricks, and I'm too cool for them . . . except after 3 hours with my children, and then I'm Mr. Magic Daddy.
You know the halfassed stars that walk around with body guards calling attention to themselves, maybe this will help you understand them. Or maybe they're just assholes.
John Lennon's ripped apart and unhealthy vocal on "Twist and Shout" can teach you how to do ever magic trick in the world.
I got the best advice ever for dealing with elderly parents. It won't help much, but you're going to need all the help you can get.
I was a hippy in high school (still am) and the police stopped me all the time. My Dad said I didn't do drugs. How could he have possibly known?
I found out the principal of my children's school watches these things. I never counted on that. Never. Oops.
My buddy, David Greenberger, does art that deals with the elderly. Funny, loving, beautiful, inspiring -- you gotta check it out.
Yeah, I'm just not a solidarity guy. I've got complaints about Atheist billboards . . . once a buddy told me what was wrong.
Bono said "Thanks for giving us a wonderful life" -- isn't that stupid, crazy, humble, presumptuous, self-absorbed, magnanimous, and lots of other things? It's beautiful.
If there's any evidence that video game or movie depiction of violence, or any kind of music or art desensitizes real people to real violence -- well, I don't know what I might do.
I'm not a biblical scholar, but I've read the damn thing. But Deuteronomy 21:10 -14, sure doesn't look like a pro-feminist hunk to me.
U2 did a GREAT show. And Bono is a good guy. He does good things. And he's ernest. And he's sincere. And . . . he got bopped in the nose with a very fancy microphone. I'm dying.
"There outta be a law" to arrest and punish the gang rape bystanders. When someone says "There outta be a law" there probably ountn't.
On Halloween we took our children to the mall (I did NOT dress in a sheet) and they did their Trick or Treat at stores. It's called "Safe Street" and that bugs me a bit.
I know I already carried on enough about "Daylight Savings Time" but, it's history shows us how careful we have to be with temporary government crisis ideas.
Greg, for Red Eye was very supportive of me being reamed by my hero, Tommy Smothers, and told me his own situation.
I had a serious professional grammatical discussion of gay pornographic titles. I think we found the dirtier of two choices.
You know, sometimes I add "there is no god" for no reason. A friend suggests a greeting card line.
Sometimes the whole world works together to make a joke that only I get. We have a wounded war veteran, give him a hand!
