horrible news indeed.  both So7B and SM have put out some great music.

there's another band that i need to add to my "i fucked up and didn't see them while i should have" list.


Probably best you didn't see School of Seven Bells live.  Loved their albums but their live shows were pretty bad.  You can have a better memory of the band without the live experience.

No one else did quite so much to make the absentee-parent issues in the African-American community look like so much fun!

A very keen sense of irony. The dogs get their revenge for all of those years of it being the other way around.

This is why you're a HoFer. You're race baiting in two ethnicities today and it's not even 11am on the east coast!

I can only imagine being Smackie or someone else in PST waking up and logging on only to see you've already done this much work. Your ethic is strong and your will indefatigable.

Drats…it was such good imagery.  I was a little skeptical when it mentioned it had the dogs starved for 5 days…that's a lot of planning.  Had the whole james bond villain type of way to get rid of someone

Still curious as to why he was kept in a vegetative state for eight years.

He was only supposed to stay in a vegetative state for one year, but thru the miracle of Hannukkah, Dr. Maccabee made it last for eight years!
