For All The Studio Rats
Wherever your studio may be, if you spend massive amounts of time there this one's for you: Feel My Heat!
Infamy & Glory
“Never do business with a religious son-of-a-bitch. His word ain't worth a shit -- not with the Good Lord telling him how to fuck you on the deal.”
-- William S. Burroughs
(Been thinking about this one reading the conservative websites during this election season.)

Bowie & Burroughs
We As A People Will Get There
It hasn't been that long. Don't forget. 2 wars. The al-Qaeda and Bin Laden boogieman. No hope for healthcare or tax breaks for the folks. Anti-intellectual, anti-science screamers in charge. I remember very clearly how scary it was for america.
Are we out of the nightmare yet? Bad trip hangover done? Not quite. The economy can be better but it's been turned around as of late, just like GM. Our health and education systems will take another decade to modernize. Racism has new blood but their grasp on logic continues to dwindle. SuperPacs and the power of big money in politics are on the lips of regular Americans again so perhaps with this knowledge will come reform. Ya right!
Look how young he looked. Look how happy and hopeful we were. Realistically the man has affected huge change and has more to accomplish. I've been to socialist countries, I've spoke in length with people who live or lived under socialist systems. America is not and will never be such a system. The smear of 'socialist' at Obama needs to be countered. Just keep that in mind as the general election starts to heat up.
The Study of Astrofarts
In honor of my least favorite day of the year. Sorry ma, I had to do it.
Satellite Dish Ears
Cool article on Bernie Worrell making a home for himself.

The Wizard
This guy is the greatest, an amazing human and one of the finest musicians ever. A living legend who is an example for us all.
Obama The Soul Singer
Drugstore Cowgirl
I've had a complicated relationship with this band over the years. Reassess with me and let the video speak for itself.
The Obama Argument
Here's a well made argument on why and how Obama is far more successful than the current narrative in the news allows. Give it a read if you are interested in straight talk and a factual review over hyperbole. If you are a basketball fan you know the 'long game'. The game is four quarters and every team has a run in them. Obama seems to play politics like it's The Finals, not theater (or a scrimmage).
