Our old buddy Will issues some fightin’ words: Jimmy Buffett, a great western philosopher, once advised his listeners, “Don’t try to describe a Kiss concert if you’ve never seen it.” The band, founded in New York City in the early 70’s by a teetotaling jewish schoolteacher named Gene Simmons, is perhaps the worst consistently successful rock group [...]

This carnal mind of mine is stuck on the swingers I met on Saturday night - you know, the suburban couples where every wife has enhanced boobs. I can't help wondering what came first, the swinging, or the plastic surgery. Is the swinging scene like Hollywood redux, where everyone tries to make it big (ahem) any way they can? One step back. Yesterday I asked a friend if he knew these folks. He nodded,...

Jimmy Buffett wandering around in a tank top? That’s it, guys: clearly, Margaritaville has been trademarked for a survival horror game. I shudder to think of it.…

From the second our feet left the comfort of our bed in favor of the harsh, cold ground this morning, we knew it was going to be a terrible day. What we expected were little accumulative annoyances -- stubbed toes, traffic, cold coffee and the like. What we got was a report from supererogatory pointing us to a terror-inducing trademark filing, which permits "Margaritaville" to be used for...

I haven’t always loved Weezer’s music (though the blue album is brilliant), but I love the band. They’ve always had a knack for understanding their audience and providing content (music, videos, blankets – more on that later) that shows they perfectly understand their fans. Here’s a quick review: First, the Buddy Holly video: If you can see [...]

The fact is, one in three Americans knows someone who has been in a violent relationship within the last year -- what they choose to do with that knowledge could help bring this epidemic to an end.
