So, you got to give it up, you know you
Can’t get enough, Miss Mackenzie
‘Cause it gets in your brain, it drives you insane
With a frenzy

I really knew nothing of Big Star until I saw the documentary. I’d heard some vague things years ago from acquaintances in the biz about a fantastic band in Tennessee that had some connection to The Boxtops, way back when. See, I am old, old school—graduated high school in 1969 (age 17), is how old school. I came up…

Most recently, Standing in the Shadows of Motown (about the studio musicians who played on most of the hit Motown records), The Wrecking Crew (about LA session musicians who played on a lot of 60’s rock hits), Nothing Can Hurt Me (about the band Big Star) and the Tom Petty Documentary on Netflix. Sometimes I just go…

Never have I longed for Fall as I do today.

Lately, I’ve been binge watching stand-up comedy concerts and music documentaries. I can’t commit to a series right now. Just don’t care enough to invest the first couple of hours. That said, I sorta recently re-binged Generation Kill and John From Cincinatti. 

If no one else comes forward, they’ll use that to discredit the original accuser. I think you’re probably right. If he did what she said under those circumstances, this was not a one-off, drank-too-much kind of thing. Other victims, if there are any, need to come forward on Monday or Tuesday, or we’re going to be…

Wireless earbuds. Just sayin’. I was skeptical, but now I love ‘em.

Fuckin’ A! You have no idea how many hours I’ve killed in waiting rooms this year reading Kindle on an 8 Plus. It’s like small paperback book, but it’s a whole library.

They make pink Glocks. I don’t know who buys them, but they do sell.

Has Little Big Hands weighed in on this issue? Or does he Tweet with the phone on a table top, like it’s a tiny typewriter?

Anyone else remember the scene in Friends With Money when Catherine Keener hisses at Jason Isaacs, “Brush your teeth. You smell like a dead man.” Or am I remembering something else entirely?

Keys? Check. iPhone? Check. Wallet? Check. Lifesavers? Check. Good to go.

Hell, sometimes I brush my teeth if I wake up in the middle of the night to pee, or I’ll at least hit the mouthwash. What’s wrong with these people?

I’d be hard pressed to name 60 people who could even say “they knew me” in any real sense of the term, since and including high school, and I graduated in 1969.

Bristol Palin?

Bring Tebow in as head coach.

And you are ill-bred.

Other than the last Superbowl, I haven’t watched an NFL game in two years. The first year was really difficult, but now it’s like, “How long can you go?”

He was Carrot Top’s dad.
