“The Death of Adam” is a new release by 88-Keys that is the absolute isht. Its a beginning to end concept album about meeting a girl, getting all biblical with her, realizing she’s a bit of a nut, and then finding out she’s having your baby. Its dark, funny, well made, and beautifully absurd at the same time. In an era when [...]
Put It In Your Queue, Shun!
The Chicago Tribune ran a piece today that immediately made me reminisce about one of my favorite documentary’s movie’s of all-time. The movie was “Hoop Dreams” and it followed the twisting paths of two 14 year old basketball players from Chicago with dreams of D1 scholarships and NBA careers. When I watched it as a kid, it [...]
Secretary of State Felicia Pearson???

Unsafe At Any Volume
Rumpledsuitskin aka the Election Crasher aka Ralph “Mother Fucking” Nader made some news this election, and it was not of the good variety. Its never a good sign when I find myself agreeing with the schleps on Fox News…its almost apocalyptic. Peep the video below.

Telegraph to the Av North to the Deep East
I’m back. My bad. Trying to keep up with the election was enough for myself, let alone trying to pretend I know more than the next person. Whatever…we got Obama and I can remain in the States. Word.
