terry (sic?) from BERLIN is Definitely 20 ft away from me right now….


god i miss the 80s'
yeah right
actually though, berlin was doing a live instudio thing for the 80s channel. all the guys think she's hot. she's not too bad for approaching middle age.

so yeah, my job is cool because i see 80s stars walking around

Wait till you meet someone you've been really looking forward to meeting…I bet you think to yourself, "huh, much smaller than I expected"

It's weird how that happens, but it almost always does.

Paige…at what age does one hit middle age?

I plan on living to 110, so do I reach middle age at 55?

Baes on that algorithm, your average rock star hits middle age at about 28.

The closer you get to middle age, the older it seems to be.

In your teens 30 is middle age, in your 20's 40 seems to be middle age, in your 30's it's 50 something is the number….Basically it's twenty years from now!

I thought you hit middle age the moment your cultural references stop being updated…..

So mankie hit middle age about a decade ago.

I'm guessing that's what happens when you have a kid and realize that there are more important things in your life than cultural references…

yep Rhett I am prone to agree with you. Its why parents can never be cool. Ergo, never be a parent.

at xm or in general?
at xm – sit around, open demo packages mailed in by unsigned bands, listen to them and a lot of the time, laugh. hang out and end up on air with the liquid metal guys

in general – sit around. eat cake and indian food. go to shows. pretend to be cool. vy for markie's undying love and affection.

Whatever you do, don't bear him a child. We're trying to wipe out that species from the earth, as it is at lowest end of the food chain and has no further use in the modern world.

which could have been a fun job many years back before everyone and their rich cousins could setup a home studio with a pc and protools…

So that means that I'm still young.
