Lies lies lies, yeah.
So, 'Two Of Us' ran on VH-1 this
week. What would have happened if John & Paul would have
met for a day in 1976... Hmmm, let's see. Certainly not
this. Who'd have thought that John was a psychotic asshole and
Paul was so on the ball. Oh, maybe it's because Paul's still
alive and can sue for libel. Man, what a piece of crap.
I mean, I LOVE 'McCartney II', but I wouldn't if the asshole in that
movie was responsible for it. The only thing that would have
made this remotely acceptable would have been if they would have
written that Grover Washington/Bill Withers song in the second act.
Sweet Bird Of Paradox, indeed!

So, the Super Bowl was a good quarter
and the only really good ad was two retards and a monkey, but I
had a good time. I just wish that when they gave Christopher
Reeve the ability to walk, they didn't have to shrink his head in
the process.

You know, 'Tapestry' IS a pretty
incredible record. And, who can deny the fun of typing Al
Cooper and Alice Kooper...
I missed this week's "Freaks &
Geeks" due to a plane crash of the California coast. As
this was the (supposed) first episode with timely music references,
I will give it another chance.
Capitol has issued "The Beach
Boys Greatest Hits, Vol. 3: The Brother Years." A
good investment. Aside from the (collector's item makin') fact
that there's a typo on the back spine, it's a great buy for the
GREAT songs. Holy moly. This is some great stuff, folks.
And, 'Kokomo"'s on Vol. 1, so you don't have to worry.

Okay, I'm a year behind (and haven't
seen any of the second season yet) but 'The Sopranos' may be the
best TV series. Ever. Bada-bing.

I thank the Mayor of Lakinland (I
hope you've all visited http://www.enoise.com lately)
for this week's intriguing inquiries. I'd make one Question Of
The Week©; if I didn't answer them all...
1. Which album would you make sure
wasn't recorded?
'A Taste Of
Honey.' Then, maybe, the jackass voting members of NARAS would have
picked one of the other "Best New Artist" nominees for the
Grammy that year: Toto, The Cars, or Elvis Costello.
2. Which movie would you stop from being made?
'Let It Be.' We
might have gotten another album out of the blokes.
3. Which TV personality would you prevent from being born?
If Jim Carrey
doesn't count, I'll pick Jenna Elfman.
4. What famous event would you most likely show up at?
Duh, the
