Grab Bag O' Thoughts

• Milwaukee, Wisconsin's own The Gothsicles are playing this Saturday night as part of the MarsCon festivities. Do check them out, won't you?
  
  
• Right around the top of Hour Three of this afternoon's meeting, I began to feel a more-profound-than-usual sense of regret at not having gone to barber college when I had the chance.
  
  
• It hasn't been the same since they moved to New York, but occasionally, The Onion can still hit one out of the park.
  
  
• While we're on the subject, this week's AV Club Interview is with Jim Gaffigan. He's one of my favorite standup comics at the moment.
  
  
• Would it be unseemly for a nearly-34-year-old, nearly-24-stone man to try to learn to skateboard?

My friend's in endif, he told me to come out - I could only catch the first night of it, but I was blown away by what I saw. I didn't realize you're in Gothsicles! You guys were incredible! Everyone seemed to love you, singing along and such. I'd heard your name before but that was the first I'd heard your music. (I was the drunk-ass in the kilt.)

There are politics everywhere, as much as one chooses to acknowledge them. There are some things I look past, and sometimes I take up others' battles. Other people do what they like without a mind toward politics, and that's excellent, that's very good for them. I strike allegiances, for better or for worse. It's limiting but I don't know any other way to be.

Oh, you know endif? Cool, he's a good guy. Glad to hear you liked the show! Hopefully we'll be playing around more often once this semester ends and the CD gets closer to being released.

Holy crap, I'm all about a CD. I'll be haunting your website...

HOLY CRAP! You're playing in Madison on my birthday! I think I'll take that day off and haul my opinionated and pallid ass on out there!
