She's got Superman's smile and Wonderwomen's hair

We can thank Tom Waits and his tune "Tango Till They're Sore" for the prior title.

So it's Monday and hopefully you are not working. Have an extra beer for me.

Check out the three amigos. No this is not a remake with Will Ferrell--although that would be sweet. Instead this is something...well...else.

Oh My God it Burns. Bad vodka turned good? Maybe. I haven't tried it but if someone out there has let me know. Page down to the experiment on 11/05.

The future of the wheel? The tweel.

Bill Hicks book etc.

Remember the cows in Chicago? Well Phoenix has fender guitars.

another Seattle wave of great music?

Is this where my tax dollars are going? Non-lethal chemical weapons for homosexuality activities of the enemy. Nice. Make love not war.

This is going too far--outsourcing the drive up at McD's

iTunes and satellite radio is making radio think about the future. It's about time.

Someone's list of 2004 CD you may have missed.

BACKBEAT: COLLECTOR’S EDITION, is coming to DVD on January 25th!
Directed by Iain Softley (K-PAX), Backbeat is an energetic, musical drama chronicling the pre-fame Beatles as they head to Hamburg in search of success. As they gain popularity, the “fifth Beatle,” bass guitarist Stuart Sutcliffe (Stephen Dorff), falls in love and ultimately must choose between his best friend John Lennon, his new love (Sheryl Lee) and the greatest rock and roll band in the world.
Full of vitality and heart, with a soundtrack that includes rock classics, featuring music from Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters), David Pirner (Soul Asylum) and Mike Mills (R.E.M.)
Both the soundtrack and the movie are worth it.
