You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan  

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.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Kill me, kill me now!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Heaven's just a funky Carnival Cruise Rock 'N' Roll Holiday Escape.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Eek! It's my high school nightmare, on a cruise ship!

Up with the sun

Some songs are holy to me, and therefore, using one of these holy songs to sell soda seems blasphemous. One such song is the Rolling Stones' You Can't Always Get What You Want.

Pisses me off too, Allyson. Even setting the sanctity of the song aside, isn't it famously about heroin?

But then, that didn't stop Carnival Cruises froom using "Lust for Life."

I've given up being saddened by it, and am just counting the days until U2's "One" turns up in an ad for tampons or fried chicken.

"One."

See, I think that the commercial with the little girl playing "Lust For Life" on her boombox to her classmates is kinda funny, given that they cut away right before the "with the liquor and drugs & the sex machine" line.

"Mommy, what's 'had it in the ear before' mean?"

Well they own all the rights to all their songs and turned down $40 million to use "Beautiful Day" in a car campaign, so just wait until they are desperate for the cash.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Forgot To Be A Lover. I'm very insistent about this, as I love this song.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.

Did anyone see the Ben Stiller Show parody of "One" being used to sell breakfast cereal? Ben does a fine, fine Bono.

Joe, gotcher email! Thanks! I will never, ever be back on the Lopate show again. Because my cell turned itself on in my bag and rang on-air. (To keep this on-topic, the caller was MC Paul Barman ...)
