I forget their name but a while ago some of the members of REM teamed up with Warren Zevon to put out a record.
The Hindu Love Gods.
There's a video for that, btw. Not a great one, but probably on YouTube.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Holy Crap! A friend of mine in Chicago just emailed me to say that he saw my White Castle ad during the Simpsons! He didn't know I'd done it, so it was extra shocking for him. :)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Get ready to hear from all the weirdos you barely knew 20 years ago!

Well, this weekend is my 25th (!!!) High School reunion, so at least I'll have something to talk about...

You must have a tape of that! The Simpsons ep with your commercial in it? Your Simpsonian collection would be incomplete without it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Jon, was that this week's Simpsons? or last weeks? (A friend of mine has last week's (both episodes) on tape. Recorded from satellite TV, which I suppose would have different commercials from broadcast TV.)

Tommy, I'm guessing that it played during one of the many reruns of old episodes that air during the week, but I don't know that for sure. I'll ask.

Yep, I was right. From my friend Marc:
I saw it around 5:20pm on Fox 32 here in Chicago

My Chicago friend just told me the sweetest story:
just an fyi , when i first saw the ramones in 1982? at Metro, me and my friend went to see them and on the way home we stopped at a White Castle and we're eating our sliders and the Ramones actually walked in for some burgers. I must've been 17, best rock experience with White Castle until you of course ;-)
