That fucking sucks, Hayden.
Let's hope it's one of those silver lining dealies and you wind up with a job you really like.
I was under the impression that I was your big comfy blanky.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Wishing you a better job and soon, Hayden.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I've decided to ring in the 2011 New Year with my own misguided version of public service: an online archive of a scandalous and short-lived 70's teen magazine! The first issue of Star hit the stands in February 1973. With its over-the-top advice and irreverent coverage of LA's teenage groupie scene, it wasn't long before Petersen Publishing was feeling the heat from "concerned citizens". Five issues and five months later, publication ceased. A sixth issue was planned but never printed. Such controversy along with coverage of "new breed" Sunset Strip groupies (Shray Mecham, Sable Starr, Lori Lightning, Queenie Glam) and glam venues like Rodney Bingenheimer's English Disco cemented the mag's later cult status among fans and collectors.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Wow, Star Magazine is the super foxiest '73 artifact I've ever seen.
Love the emphasis on girl fights and the "going steady trap." Couldn't be further from the conventional wisdom in most places.
I really liked the cartoonist they used too, Petagno.

The cartoons are pretty awesome.
With all the comic book archiving/reprinting going on, I wish that more of the underground stuff was in print.

I'm very happy to have about 8 issues of the original Punk.
But it would be very fun to have a collection of something like New York Rocker.
I was reading Creem for years before I even really owned records.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I am not a Korn fan, but my younger brother got me into a song they did with The Cure on MTV Unplugged. It's a Korn song and a Cure song played together: "Make Me Bad / In Between Days".
Ooh, yeah. I love Korn, and the Unplugged songs are surprisingly good. "Blind" came up on my Pandora, and I got hooked on it so much I checked out some of my other favorites.
Band Names of the Year, 2010.
Those are some crazy band names, but Apoptygma Berzerk has been around for a long time.
