The Noughties Were Shit , proclaims one British blog, looking back with a jaundiced eye on the decade just gone. Personally, I paid zero attention to the celebrity chefs and crappy inventions the blog marshals as evidence of the decade's inherent excrementality. Any decade is going to look like rubbish if you pay attention to celeb chefs, let's face it. And complaining about things you nevertheless...
After a debut album released in 2007, the Jamaican duo Conrad Crystal and Suga Roy has decided to pay tribute to some serious Reggae legends through their new album.
So, thanks to a gibbering mob, Rush Limbaugh is barred from being a minority (uh oh) partner in the Rams, thus preventing more attention and excitement for a bad football team, and a declining sport, and offending a vast number of fans at the same time.

Eek, a mouse! That is the standard mode of left-wing (and neocon and DC “libertarian”) criticism these days, and Media Matters is no exception: how dare I mention such forbidden concepts as secession, nullification, and interposition on Freedom Watch? And then there are those advocates of Muslim mass murder, the Little Green Fascists, who note [...]

"Loud enough in there for you?" a guy asked as Lori and I stood outside of three20south (320 South Main Street) in Breckenridge. Too loud, we told him. Turned out the guy was the soundman for the New Orleans-based Dirty Dozen Brass Band, which would be headlining at the mountain cl...
Hey again, Lordofnoyze here with an unusual look at one overlooked master of animation. Now, for this blog, I will talk about a time way before DreamWorks Animation and Pixar, way before 3-D (well, as we know it or we are about to know it...I see you, James). Ever since the launch of Walt Disney Studios, in the 1930s, the Mouse firm maintained a strong domination in terms of animation feature films....
