You know you’re in Texas when parents of students complain to the principal about a field trip to the local museum resulting in their precious, innocent babies being subjected to — *gasp* — NUDE ART!!! Of course the school board was understanding with the veteran art teacher over his apparent “lack of judgement.” Nah…just kidding,…

Love Battery
My car’s battery died after I parked in the downtown garage that my company pays for. Totally flat. I had to get Tiffany to drive me up to Auto Zone and buy a new one, drive back to the garage and install it before it got dark. It wasn’t easy and the job is still…
Moving!
Not much to report this week…except that I’m starting a new job and MOVING this weekend!! We got a new place out in Oak Cliff — a gigantic two-bedroom bungalow off of Zang and directly across the street from the boarding house Lee Harvey Oswald was living in when he shot JFK. Yes, that is…
9/11 — Five Years Later
I took this picture of the burning towers with a Polaroid from the roof of my apartment on Henry Street in Brooklyn. About 30 minutes later our neigborhood was completely enveloped in a thick, dark cloud of debris. I still have pieces of paper from the WTC that flew over the East River and landed…
Armor of God PJs
And all this can be yours for $39.95. Although from the looks of the flammable, man-made cloth these pjs are cut from, your kids might end up in a literal “baptism of fire.”
Who Watches Commercials Anymore?

The clip has sent the public into a murderous frenzy, inspired dozens of mocking imitationsand sent the ad’s young star, “Sven,” into hiding for his life…Yeah, it’s annoying but it’s not…
Idiocracy Reviewed
Mike Judge‘s latest film “Idiocracy” is generating a lot of controversy — which is weird considering 99.9% of the movie going public (including Mike Judge fans) are not even aware it’s in theaters. Well…a few theaters anyway. I was lucky enough to check it out this weekend because Dallas was one of the eight cities…
The Gosdin Brothers – Sounds of Goodbye
Visited my pal James “Bucks” Burnett at his haunt, Forever Young Records, in Grand Prairie last Sunday. Strange I had never been there before. Great place to pick up some really expensive but clean vinyl. I wasn’t in the mood. Picked up an Esquerita comp I’d sold back in the early ’90s but put it…
Ghoul in the Family
This is absolutely brilliant. Haunted Memories. Won’t somebody please buy me a set for my birthday?
God Craves Your Face
Ladies and geeks, the psychedelic Pastor John Rydgren…for your listening…and spiritual pleasure. Don’t blame me if Jesus becomes your main “trick,” man. (Right click on the links below and save to your computer) Hippie Version of 23 Psalm.mp3 Search It Out.mp3 A Beautiful Girl.mp3
