  2. Registration just started - $500 for a music badge (yeah, that's the early price). Up from $425 in '07, a jump of 18 percent. I've been to the last five, sorta doubt I'll make it six.
  3. It means you're a human being. That's a good thing. When you stop feeling, that's when you're in trouble.

  5. Tom Snyder of `Tomorrow Show' Dies at 71 Jul 30 12:10 PM US/Eastern SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Tom Snyder, whose smoke-filled interviews were a staple of late-night television, has died after a struggle with leukemia. He was 71. Snyder died Sunday in San Francisco from complications associated with leukemia, his longtime producer and friend Mike Horowicz told The Associated Press on Monday.

  6. Idea stolen from andrewsullivan.com - here's a few standards: People on 'ludes should not drive. That is one nutty hospital. You dick! Nobody's perfect! Those guys are f-gs! .
  7. Love the aftershows at ACL, but last year there wasn't anybody I really needed to see (no DBT, Wilco, Neko, Nick Lowe, Lucinda) so I skipped em and found that I enjoyed the Festival itself much more than in the past - didn't feel like I was dying by 6 p.m.
  8. Sadistic racist cheating gambler? He'd fit right in today.
  9. Well, in the places where Nikes are made, dogfighting is considered fairly tame stuff. When you're making $1.95 a day, animal rights is a low priority.
  10. I sorta figured they might be coming out with a swoosh muzzle or something. (note to Tweedy: if you wanna keep that sweet VW moola comin', watch it!)

  11. So now I gotta adopt 3 greyhounds to impress Neko??? Grrrrrr!!!! (Hey, good job! :thumbup . Didn't proceeds from the auction of Neko's undies go to a greyhound rescue deal?)
  12. Wait for the paperback.
  13. The Language of Farting By EVAN R. GOLDSTEIN Meet Roland the Farter. A minstrel in the court of Henry II of England, Roland had an annual Christmas Day engagement with the king and his fellow revelers. Roland's act consisted of a dance that culminated with his trademark forte: a synchronized jump, whistle, and fart. Though accounts are sketchy, they indicate that Roland's remarkable trifecta was performed simultaneously (and not surprisingly, only once). Roland was so valued as an entertainer that the king rewarded his impressive feat of dexterity with a plot of land. The story of Roland t
  14. We tried that. It was called the OJ trial. Turns out we were a bunch of racists.
  15. Allegedly, please. This is the USA, not Gitmo (yet). On the stereo right now: Nick Lowe's "Mary Provost," in which a former starlet is consumed by her dogs.
  16. If found guilty, he should be dipped in A-1 sauce and dropped in a cage full of hungry pitbulls.

  17. Former son-in-law of June Carter and (kinda) Johnny Cash. Former grandson-in-law of Maybelle Carter. Almost former nephew-in-law of Hank Williams (if things had worked out between Hank and Anita Carter).
