Rivers Cuomo's Method For Writing Songs

Take a Ritalin, do three shots of tequila and then get to writing.  That's how "Hash Pipe" came about.

TEA and I - A Special Movember Request

One of the reasons I am doing this is because I don't want TEA to ever get sick, to ever suffer...

so if not for me, donate for TEA and for all the little boys (and we are all little boys) that you have in your life...

Movember Update - Sunday Morning Coming Down

Another day, another Movember update!

The "mo" contributes to the "ugh, Sunday morning look" well, doesn't it?

If you have a blog, Twitter, or Facebook, I would really appreciate you linking to Movember.  Either my Movember page (please) or the national page.

The link you can use is: http://us.movember.com/mospace/392590

Thank you!

Twilight, really?

In Borders yesterday, I was surrounded by Twilight stuff. It was...well...terrifying.





Now, I realize that some of this is on me because I do not understand the appeal of the franchise...

A) Dude, you're over 100 and you want to date teenagers and go to high school? What kind of ridiculous premise is that?

B) They "sparkle"?

C) Vampires with a conservative Christian overtone make...perfect sense.

Yes, I have a bias here. But...can I be that disconnected from the larger culture or is this one of those badnesses that I am immune from because I really could give a rats ass about what teenagers think is cool. Teenagers are rarely cool themselves and the Tweens (they are the presumed market, right? Tweens and single women with lots of cats.) are never cool.

My hope is that this will be dead and buried before TEA becomes involved, because....I would hate to have to stake him.

Just Say No!

Dude...

First of all, it is the middle of November. Secondly, jorts are always a bad idea. Finally, it is 48 and pouring out.


I watched you come in. What were you thinking when you left the house like that?

Please donate to Movember!
