Some very exciting things gwan ’round here as of late. Only, I can’t spill any of it yet. Let’s just say this: You know what time it is. And also: tune in to Faded Radio tonight where Pete and Schnippz and I will hold it down for Sam, who will be in his own personal […]

Alex Pappademas Keaton gets the “good lookin out on converging interests award” for sending THIS AMAZING SHIT: an interview with Obama about Omar from the Wire. You do want this man as your president, don’t you? Obama: I gotta say Omar’s a great character. That’s not an endorsement. Coolican: (Laughing.) Uh oh, you’re making national […]

For those who are impatiently waiting for Kelsiography #2, in which my brilliant 14 year old cousin reviews records of her choice and I pay her $0, here is the update. I have instructed her to forget everything she ever read in any music magazine ever and told her to just write reviews in her […]

The Clintonian busted-ass strategy of turning this campaign to race issues in order to convince white Obama supporters that he is racially divisive is A. explained here and B. the most despicable campaign strategy since Junior stole the 2000 election. The Clintons are SO over for me. Will said to me in a text recently […]

Faded radio is back in full effect after the break and last night’s entry was fairly epic. It started out with just me and Sam (so the show is basically all rap, including Ill Al Skratch, which is Sam’s and my favorite BK rap crew ever). Then Chris and Schnippz and Cole and Schnippz’s roommate […]
