Why do I keep picturing Strom Thurmond carousing in the back of a roadhouse? Yes, it is a horrible mental image. I used to live in Mpls, been in that bathroom many times. No... not for that...
Quote of the day, “You’re not being truthful with me. I’m kind of disappointed in you, senator,” sez the pig. One of the hypocritical-power-mad hoisted by their very own brand of sanctioned-finkery-petard.
No quarter.

Pirata
So I dressed as a pirate for my second wedding performance ever. The young couple understood that I didn't really believe in marriage, since not everyone is allowed to do it and I was a complete atheist, they said that's exactly what they wanted. We decided that having me dress up as the Reverend Jim Jones would be just too dark, that only people my age would appreciate the humor. I suggested dressing as a buccaneer, since that is the preferred attire for the clergy in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, they were all for it.
I rented a costume from the inimitable LaRue Costume Rental and said the words they wanted me to say, Dr. Suess style. First time I ever made a c-note-plus for ten minutes of work.
Judging by the accolades, my improvised brandishing of the pistol while asking if there were objections was the real crowd pleaser. I'm personally rather nonplussed by the whole spectacle, but several young and old Canadian hippies think I should profit from my politically religious humor. Hmmmm... sounds kinda fun. After all, I am The First High Potentate of The Unholy Church of The Godless Sinner.

Bob Mould
Bob Mould on The Henry Rollins Show, I used to go see Husker Du every time they played 1st Ave, saw Henry many times at Seventh Street Entry. Who knew their carrers would go where they are now? Fucking incredible song.
Good one.
Best cover of Louis Armstrong's "Wonderful World" ever caught on video, featuring a very young Nick Cave and Shane McGowan.
Always click on the blue text, it's never dull.
Shane McGowan, infamous frontman for the Pougues, sings "Irish Rover on the Henry Rollins Show. This man is one fucked up individual, but sings like no one else alive.
