If you
think I've loved you all I can, I'm gonna love you a little bit
more.
So, what
did I get myself for B.J.'s birthday? I got the new Madness
box set - 'The Lot' [Virgin], natch. Man, oh man. All
six albums remastered, and all 24 videos, too. The interactive
stuff is great, and the resolution of the videos is the best I've
seen on an enhanced cd. Looks great, sounds great, takes
me back and makes me smile. Only available as an import, but
worth every goddamn penny (or pound, as the case may be).
I caught
the last half of really weird "Rankin-Bass"-esque (not
sure if it was theirs) thing about the origin of Santa Claus.
Man, was it disturbing. There were no songs (which - yeah -
could be a plus), and it focused this panel of "gods"(?)
who were debating whether Claus, the man, should become immortal so
he could continue delivering gifts. Any help here?...
Hey,
somebody remind Ringo that he was a FUCKING BEATLE. Sweet
Jesus, his new embarrassment (as if "Vertical Man" wasn't
enough) is a Christmas abomination called "I Wanna Be Santa
Claus". How about "I Wanna Be Drunk Again Because
You Would Forgive 'Ringo The 4th' If You Only Knew All The Great
Drugs, Booze & Pussy I Was Getting At The Time...Even If You
Paid Full Price And Didn't Take Advantage Of The MILLIONS Of Copies
In Cut-Out Bins For Many Years To Come"

Man, do I
love a home theater set-up. I watched the Arizona Republican
Candidate debate with the surround sound on, and I could hear the
wind rushing through George W. Bush's head. And the
Republicans didn't want Quayle because?...

Incorrect Statement This Week©: I watched some skating
program on ABC this weekend, and saw a skater from Japan dressed as
Snow White. Wouldn't that make her Yellow Snow?
