<br />
<br />
This drinking song is dedicated to all those folks who constantly call out sick at the drop of a hat and make the rest of us good, hard-working, salt of the earth folks pick up their damn slack. Words and Music by Glenn Page.<br />
<br />
Intro:<br />
La la la la la la la<br />
La la la la la<br />
<br />
Verse 1:<br />
He looked fine when we last saw him<br />
In the bar 'round 3am<br />
And the last time that he called out<br />
He came back with a tan<br />
<br />
But he left the boss a voicemail<br />
And he used his "I'm sick" cough<br />
He said he fell and stubbed a toenail<br />
And he needs the whole week off<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
He took another phony sick day<br />
When he ain't really sick<br />
Another phony sick day<br />
Man that guy won't quit<br />
Pacino and DeNiro<br />
Borrowed all his acting tricks<br />
Another phony sick day<br />
And I'm so sick of it<br />
<br />
Verse 2:<br />
He somehow picked up parvo<br />
Though I'm sure he's not a pup<br />
Food poisoning at S'barro<br />
"Dude, I can't stop throwing up!"<br />
<br />
Last week was the vapours<br />
Next week he'll get gout<br />
Or get nicked with his new razor<br />
And damn-near bleed right out<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
He took another phony sick day<br />
When he ain't really sick<br />
Another phony sick day<br />
Man that guy won't quit<br />
Pacino and DeNiro<br />
Called and asked him for some tips<br />
Another phony sick day<br />
And I'm so sick of it<br />
<br />
Bridge:<br />
How could he still be walking<br />
With health that's so debased?<br />
He'd be inside a coffin<br />
They'd shoot off into space<br />
La la la la la la la<br />
La la la la la<br />
<br />
Verse 3:<br />
Now he's back here at the office<br />
And this time it's for real<br />
He's sneezing and he's coughing<br />
And hacking with great zeal<br />
<br />
My temperature is rising<br />
He shoulda stayed at home<br />
Used up all his sick time<br />
Now we've gotta use our own!<br />
BECAUSE<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
He took another phony sick day<br />
When he ain't really sick<br />
Another phony sick day<br />
Man that guy won't quit<br />
Pacino and DeNiro<br />
Ain't got nuthin' on this twit<br />
Another phony sick day<br />
And I'm so sick of it<br />
He took another phony sick day<br />
And we're so sick of it<br />
<br />

<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d78gf-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="d78gf-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">This new Katy Perry song "Chained to the Rhythm" bothers me on so many levels. People keep saying how "brave" and "edgy" Perry is for doing this song. What a bunch of bull! It's not brave or edgy to write a quasi-"protest" song when:</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="9ur2l" data-offset-key="pshf-0-0" style="color: #1d2129; font-family: 'San Francisco', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, '.SFNSText-Regular', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: -0.23999999463558197px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="pshf-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="pshf-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">(a) You're now 32 years old and you realize at some point you're going to have to make a move towards "mature artist" territory if you want to remain commercially viable. You can't wear cupcakes on your boobs forever.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="9ur2l" data-offset-key="co8fo-0-0" style="color: #1d2129; font-family: 'San Francisco', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, '.SFNSText-Regular', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: -0.23999999463558197px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="co8fo-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="co8fo-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">(b) The whole country is basically a sh*t-storm of social and political unrest, which means you're really just tapping into the zeitgeist. Your intentions may be good, but it's hardly a "brave" move.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="9ur2l" data-offset-key="e00a1-0-0" style="color: #1d2129; font-family: 'San Francisco', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, '.SFNSText-Regular', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: -0.23999999463558197px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

<span data-offset-key="e00a1-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">(c) Your song, under the pretense of being "ironic," hedges its bets at every turn by telling people not to be mindless consumers, but couches the message in a loutish, party-anthem chorus which shouts "DRINK!!!" and cynically panders to the most mindless of pop consumers. Irony isn't a free pass for hypocrisy.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="9ur2l" data-offset-key="1dlof-0-0" style="color: #1d2129; font-family: 'San Francisco', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, '.SFNSText-Regular', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: -0.23999999463558197px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="1dlof-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="1dlof-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">(d) Your song is dealing with old, worn-out stereotypes about how the middle class is too "comfortable" to see the harsh reality of the world around them, while blithely ignoring the fact that the middle class is seriously hurting in just about every respect, and I suspect is more aware of the world around them than ever before.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="9ur2l" data-offset-key="b199o-0-0" style="color: #1d2129; font-family: 'San Francisco', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, '.SFNSText-Regular', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: -0.23999999463558197px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="b199o-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="b199o-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">(e) You bemoan the steady stream of propaganda which keeps people oblivious and anesthetized. At the same time, you conveniently overlook that YOU yourself are a huge part of the machine that helps keeps people in that trance, and one safe, trivial protest song lacking the courage of its own convictions isn't going to do much to change that.</span><br />
<span data-offset-key="b199o-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">However, in other news, Lady Gaga's new song "John Wayne" is pretty good!</span></div>

"Opening a lyrical vein for the world to see, he not so much sings, but mumbles, his tortured poetry over a muted musical soundscape which creates a rich tapestry of emotional pain and draws the listener further into the depths of..."
<br />
<br />
"Combining their unique brand of fizzy alt-pop with the introspective smarts of Brooklyn-esque lo-fi and the savage grace of their post-emo contemporaries..."
<br />
<br />
"On this, a welcome return-to-form..."
<br />
<br />
"Over the course of nine solemn, dirge-like tracks, the band explores their rustic roots and shared love of Appalachian folklore..."
<br />
<br />
"Kicking off the album with a quirky number about your significant other's taste in coffee drinks and favorite authors might seem odd to some, but..."
<br />
<br />
"Although ostensibly a jam band, their last release was a straight cover, from end-to-end, of Ke$ha's 'Warrior' album. Their latest, arriving a mere two months later, finds the band applying their formidable musical chops to Kenny Rogers, viewing him through a psychedelic prism and re-imagining the country icon's entire back catalog as..."
<br />
<br />
"Clearly inspired by punk visionaries like Green Day and Blink 182..."
<br />
<br />
"The pop princess shows us yet again that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, as no less than ten of the twelve songs on her new album rail at ex-lovers who dared..."
<br />
<br />
"Only two days into January, and already on most critics' lists as a fierce contender for 'best album of the year', no one is likely to top..."
<br />
<br />
"On edgy new tracks like 'F*ck All Bitches', this brilliant musical satirist turns a funhouse mirror on society and offers up a scathing indictment of consumerist culture..."
<br />
<br />
"No one can deny the 80s were, by and large, musically barren..."
<br />
<br />
"To all the naysayers who insist rock is dead, check out this stunning debut by..."
<br />
<br />
"Abandoning the intricate songcraft and multi-layered beauty that defined the bulk of their earlier work, the band opts for a more 'organic' sound this time around, banging out twelve warts-and-all numbers, most of which evolved from nine hours of jamming on two chords..."

(Chip Reader Blues)". Inspiration struck when a woman asked a cashier at the store, "Do you do the chip?" As soon as I heard that, I got right to writing. My friend Jonny and I (under our band name "Addie Dodge") recorded this rough demo of the tune. We may eventually record a "real" version of the song, but in the meantime, we had a lot of fun recording this early take. The lyrics and chords are below so you can follow along. Please be sure to comment and subscribe, and thanks for listening! Sincerely, Glenn <br />

"Do the Chip!" (AKA: "Chip Reader Blues")<br />

<br />
Verse 1:<br />
First you put it in the base<br />
Then you pull it out too soon<br />
Then you make an angry face<br />
Wondering what you're s'posed to do<br />
Hey, if you like to wait,<br />
Man this thing is great<br />
You do the chip!<br />
Let's do the chip!<br />
<br />
Verse 2:<br />
Well, they say it keeps us safe<br />
But it's really for the banks<br />
And for making people late<br />
TelI Jamie Dimon I said "Thanks!"<br />
Like Russians in the snow<br />
It's art house movie slow<br />
To do the chip!<br />
You do the chip!<br />
<br />
Bridge:<br />
Yeah, we're all living on credit<br />
'Cause that's just what they want<br />
And to make sure they're protected<br />
When the whole thing falls apart<br />
<br />
Verse 3:<br />
So you put it in the base<br />
Then complain it takes too long<br />
Stare the clerk right in the face<br />
Like he hasn't heard that song<br />
You ain't the head of state,<br />
Hey buddy you can wait<br />
To do the chip!<br />
You do the chip!<br />
It'll drive you crazy,<br />
So COME ON BABY<br />
Do the chip!!!<br />

On the surface, this may seem like it's not that hard, but it's actually trickier than it seems. Humor is not always universal, and, of course, world peace is supposed to be. Plus, world peace is a very serious subject, involving lots of different cultures and beliefs, so it's hard to interject levity into the topic without potentially offending someone. So it was a bit of a challenge.<br />
<br />
<br />
Still, I figured I'd give it a go. Although I know virtually nothing about sports, I decided to use the recent "DeflateGate" controversy as a starting point. Here's what I came up with.<br />
<br />

Over the next few months I'll be cleaning house, in a way, by posting all kinds of odds and ends which I've never posted before. Mostly this will consist of just posting self-penned lyrics and/or songs which I think are pretty good but which haven't really seen the light of day for various reasons.</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
The first post consists of the lyrics to my 1995 song "What Silly Children We Are," which, I believe, borrows its title from something the Christian Caroline Fry wrote in the 1800s, but I'm not really sure where I personally picked it up. Maybe in my philosophy classes? Anyway, this song was thematically similar to my other song "Cosmic Orphans", but the viewpoint is much more sympathetic, charitable and far less despairing than that song.</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
There's music too, but this song was performed publicly only once, at a coffeehouse back in 1995 or so. As of right now, there are no recorded versions, mainly because there were one or two bits I was never very happy with, musically speaking. However, I still kind of like the lyrics, so here they are. </div>

"Silly Children"</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
We are always so hard on ourselves<br />We never give ourselves a break<br />Living our lives in our personal hells<br />And never wanting to make mistakes</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
If only we could look at our lives<br />From behind a distant star<br />Maybe we could stop and then finally realize<br />Oh what silly children we are</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
Silly children<br />Silly children we are<br />Silly children<br />When you look from afar<br />And it only takes one change of perception<br />To send your life in a new direction<br />Silly children<br />We are</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
Sometimes self-righteous and quick to condemn<br />Common sense is our only defense<br />Always demanding and so reprimanding<br />When understanding makes more sense</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
If only we could look at ourselves<br />From behind another's eyes<br />Sisters and brothers when you finally realize<br />That we're just like children inside</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
Silly children<br />Silly children we are<br />Silly children<br />When you look from afar<br />And it only takes one moment's reflection<br />For everyone to make a deeper connection<br />Silly children<br />We are</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
And every day<br />We try to learn to grow<br />So knowing is nothing<br />And there is nothing to know</div>
<div style="margin: 6px 0px;">
Silly children<br />Silly children</div>

Here was a song, a mainstream holiday song no less, celebrating and implicitly condoning Kringle-ian infidelity! What the hell! Why is mommy kissing Santa Claus!!! Where's dad??? I don't think it'd be a "laugh" if he saw his wife messing around with some fat dude who's supposed to be delivering toys to well-behaved children! It's even worse because the music is all happy and buoyant like everyone's in on it (except clueless dad) and mom cheating is just the COOLEST THING IN THE WORLD!!! Oh yeah, baby, mom's a cheating hussy! And Santa's a home wrecker!!! WOO HOO!!! Good times everybody! Cue up those horns and pour me some more egg nog!!! What the hell!!! And what about Mrs. Claus alone at the North Pole? Did we just "conveniently" forget about her??? I don't know, I seriously believe this song may have been instrumental in instilling my life-long distrust of people. Of course, now that I'm older and I know what the song is REALLY about (parental fun and games) and what's REALLY going on, well... I think it's even more disturbing.</span>NiteOwlz / Glenn Page Musichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12366996516978413993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939298558059555477.post-84649593216793780972014-12-16T01:18:00.002-05:002014-12-16T01:18:35.552-05:00Henry's Dreams<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">In his dreams, Henry was sailing over the mountains, the cornfields and the crystal blue ocean, his majestic wings stretched wide... but in his waking hours, the poor sow was constantly tormented and mocked by people throwing buckets of liquified food at him and equating his silent longing with things that would never, ever, ever, come to pass.</span>NiteOwlz / Glenn Page Musichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12366996516978413993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939298558059555477.post-53377375145753335732014-12-15T22:47:00.000-05:002014-12-15T22:59:42.551-05:00The Most Depressing Christmas Lyrics Ever Written<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"What Have They Done to Christmas?"</span><br />

<br />
Verse 1:<br />
Another lazy Friday evening<br />
Getting cozy on the couch<br />
I suppose we'll just stay in, girl<br />
Even though we could go out<br />
<br />
And I know we saw this "Seinfeld"<br />
But somehow the jokes seem new<br />
'Cause it feels like doing something<br />
Doin' nothing with you<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
Nothing to do with you<br />
I want nothing to do with you<br />
Nothing to do with you<br />
I want nothing to do with you<br />
<br />
Verse 2:<br />
Saturday came quickly<br />
You've got some errands to run<br />
There's a sale on Vera Bradley<br />
Man, that ain't my idea of fun<br />
<br />
Leave the car keys and the a.c.<br />
I'll ride shotgun like I do<br />
'Cause it feels like doing something<br />
Doing nothing with you<br />
<br />
Repeat Chorus<br />
<br />
Bridge:<br />
Some people search for hot rods<br />
Racing across the stars<br />
But they never see the flowers<br />
Growing in their own backyard<br />
They say that life means nothing<br />
But it's the only thing we've got<br />
And nothing is deeper than nothing<br />
You and I get that a lot<br />
<br />
Verse 3:<br />
Now it's back to work on Monday<br />
The boss is yelling constantly<br />
Making something out of nothing<br />
Like the whole damn company<br />
<br />
On my desk you're in a sunhat<br />
And it helps me to get through<br />
Knowing someday I'll be somewhere<br />
Doin' nothing with you<br />
<br />
Repeat Chorus<br />
<br />

<br />
Glenn says: "...I talk a good game about how much I'm influenced<br />
by punk but very little of it ever comes out in my lyrics/music. That changes today."<br />
<br />
<br />
LOSE THE BEARD (F*CK THE HIPSTERS)<br />
<br />
<br />
Verse 1:<br />
You're playing mandolin in an indie band<br />
Trying to cop the look of the common man<br />
Irony, sincerity - I don't care!<br />
Rip Van F*cking Winkle ain't got that much hair<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE the beard!!!!!!<br />
<br />
Verse 2:<br />
Plaid's the only pattern on your worn-out shirts<br />
Saying "it's in fashion" only makes it worse<br />
I used to wear those glasses 'til my ass got kicked<br />
Now you think it's cool but you're just a dick<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE the beard!!!!!!<br />
<br />
Bridge:<br />
Hey, we're only working 'cause we got no choice<br />
Stop acting like it's noble in that shitty voice<br />
Trying to be "rootsy" or some hipster crap<br />
You couldn't find the southern states with a map<br />
<br />
Verse 3:<br />
You tried to be aloof, but no one looked at you<br />
Your colors are all muted; why can't you be too?<br />
Tomorrow you'll be rustic, rural and so "real"<br />
But you don't own the market on the way that people feel<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
Lose the beard!<br />
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE the beard!!!!!!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
ANOTHER PHONY SICK DAY <br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
He took another phony sick day <br />
When he ain't really sick <br />
Another phony sick day <br />
Man, that guy won't quit <br />
<br />
Verse 1:<br />
Looked great when we saw him<br />
In the bar 'round 1 a.m.<br />
And the last time that he called out<br />
He came back with a tan<br />
<br />
But he left our boss a voicemail<br />
Used his "I'm sick" cough<br />
Said he fell and stubbed a toenail<br />
And he needs the whole week off<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
He took another phony sick day<br />
When he ain't really sick<br />
Another phony sick day<br />
Man, that guy won't quit<br />
<br />
Verse 2:<br />
He somehow picked up parvo<br />
Though I'm sure he's not a pup<br />
Food poisoning at S'barro<br />
"Dude, I CAN'T STOP THROWING UP!"<br />
<br />
Last week was the vapours<br />
Next week he'll get gout<br />
Or nicked with his new razor<br />
And damn-near bleed right out<br />
<br />
Chorus: <br />
He took another phony sick day<br />
When he ain't really sick <br />
Another phony sick day <br />
Man, that guy won't quit <br />
<br />
Bridge: <br />
How could he still be walkin' <br />
With health that's so debased? <br />
He'd be inside a coffin <br />
They'd shoot off into space<br />
<br />
Verse 3: <br />
Now he's at the office <br />
And this time it's for real <br />
He's sneezing and he's coughing<br />
And hacking with great zeal <br />
<br />
My temperature is rising, <br />
He shoulda stayed at home<br />
Used up all his sick time<br />
Now we've gotta use our own!<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
He took another phony sick day<br />
When he ain't really sick<br />
Another phony sick day<br />
Man, that guy won't quit<br />

<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jciPO9La3YE/UA4RjOKixHI/AAAAAAAAAKY/iUR8L1lG9qI/s1600/fixxcover.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" sda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jciPO9La3YE/UA4RjOKixHI/AAAAAAAAAKY/iUR8L1lG9qI/s320/fixxcover.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
The Fixx have always been the thinking man's (and woman's) new wave band. Of course, we like to think so because we like them and we like to think of ourselves as smart. (Duh!) Even beyond our obvious bias, however, the "thinking man" label has stuck for one simple reason: It's true. <br />
<br />
And, not only have The Fixx consistently made us stroke our chins and go "HMMMM" many times over the years, but they're also a fierce live act and one of the most innovative and undervalued forces to emerge from the new wave scene of the 1980s. Now, the band that gave us such classics as "One Thing Leads to Another," "Saved by Zero," "Red Skies," "Are We Ourselves?" and "Secret Separation" are back with a vengeance on a brand new studio album called "Beautiful Friction."<br />
<br />
<br />
The album, inspired in part by the energy of the Occupy Wall Street Movement, draws upon the tensions and anxieties that define our modern age and, hopefully, presage a better tomorrow. There's no bandwagon jumping here; anyone who knows the Fixx's history will recall that these themes have cropped up in their music repeatedly over the years. (Even back in 1986 they were singing, "The rush of youth, what it could achieve.") The social and political events of the last few years have merely re-energized the band and sharpened the focus of their creative laser beams. <br />
<br />
The results of this revitalization are there for all to hear on "Beautiful Friction." Jaw-droppingly gorgeous songs like "Just Before Dawn" and the title track nestle up comfortably to ferocious rockers like "What God?" and "Take a Risk," with lead singer Cy Curnin employing his singular vocal style with a startling new-found maturity throughout. Just listen as he nimbly leaps from haunting to yearning to erupting with existential anguish and back again every few bars or so. (Hell, the way he sings "The unaccountable wait to die" on the album's first single "Anyone Else" is worth the price of admission alone.)<br />
<br />
It's also worth noting that "Beautiful Friction" features ALL the members of the best-known Fixx lineup, right down to the funkiest guy to barely ever move on stage (and the man behind some of the most memorable grooves of the 80s), bass player Dan K. Brown. Jamie West-Oram - one of rock's most insanely underrated guitarists - is on board to provide his patented, jagged riffing and those clean, chiming guitar tones that ring out like the harmony of the spheres, while Adam Woods is on hand to swiftly and safely bring those chords back to earth with his pounding drums. Rounding it all out is Rupert Greenall, who loves to soak everything in a scary, sinister vibe - that is, when he's not using rushing keyboard lines or bell sounds to create moments of sheer, other-worldly beauty. <br />
<br />
And if any of this sounds like it borders on the portentous, fear not: The Fixx are way too crafty with a hook and way too savvy with their pop-smarts to let the album ever get bogged down with the weight of its own ideas. These guys are no strangers to the Billboard Top 40, after all! "Beautiful Friction" is a timely latter-day release from an important band who still care about making lasting music in a world that gets ever more disposable by the second. <br />
<br />
These are crazy times we live in; it's good to know The Fixx are "still around" to help us through it all - and keep us thinking.<br />

<br />
• Please, please stop trying to give old Christmas carols "hip" and "cutting edge" arrangements. I'm not a purist, it just sounds like crap and never works. <br />
<br />
• I'm really tired of indie bands all trying to look like lumberjacks. DUDE. You play a mandolin and you sing about tea cups. You're NOT a lumberjack.<br />
<br />
• Q: What' determines if a song is considered "dated" or "definitely of its time"? <br />
A: Whether the person you ask likes the song.<br />
<br />
• Definition of frustration: When you go to buy a personalized keychain or mug, and they have every name under the sun, even the oddball ones, but they don't have yours. "What? They have Glenniford and Glenncort but they don't have Glenn??? What the HELL!"<br />
<br />
• Most people believe their intelligence is "above average," which is a statistical impossibility. Also, smart elitists annoy me because I keep thinking that, metaphorically speaking, even the smartest ant on the anthill is still pretty freakin' stupid.<br />
<br />
• Last night, my seat on the bus was broken and wouldn't recline, so I asked the bus driver to "pop-a-wheelie" the whole way home.<br />
<br />
• Never listen to mean-spirited critics. Most of them have no vision to speak of, and since they can't see yours, they only want to tear it down.<br />
<br />
• Dear TV and internet: Please stop asking for my "comments" or "feedback" and acting like you care what I think just because some marketing guru told you that you need to be more "interactive" in the era of social networking. You don't care what we think; I don't care what I think; and I CERTAINLY don't care what Joe Blow down the street thinks.<br />
<br />
• Definition of irony: Michele Bachman said she wanted to return "character" to the White House. When asked twice (TWICE!) if she meant to suggest that President Obama lacks character she dodged the question while basically insisting she's a straight shooter of character who "says what she means." Okay, so if you're such a straight shooter who "says what she means" why the hell doesn't she ANSWER THE QUESTION?<br />
<br />
• Which reminds me, candidates constantly saying that "people are sick of politics as usual" IS politics as usual.<br />
<br />
• 2012 is almost here. Hey Def Leppard! That "Armageddon It" song ain't SO FUNNY NOW is it? IS IT?!?!?!?NiteOwlz / Glenn Page Musichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12366996516978413993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939298558059555477.post-42838891769414157182011-12-15T18:10:00.000-05:002011-12-15T18:10:05.725-05:00Going My Way?

If most of them don't exist somewhere in some form, I'd be very surprised. Some of them I think should exist, if they don't already. Some of them are probably just pretty bad ideas all around.<br />

<br />
* A retro 80's metal band called "Snake Oil." <br />
<br />
* A cheap knock-off of Eternity Perfume named "A Really Long Time."<br />
<br />
* A super-hot hot sauce called "Tongue DEPRESS-er"<br />
<br />
* A brand of flat soda sold in an 8 oz. can called "A-Cup"<br />
<br />
* A skinhead punk band named "Extreme Prejudice."<br />
<br />
* A brand of condoms named "Carrier Barriers."<br />
<br />
* A brand of shaving razors called "WHOA! That was CLOSE!"<br />
<br />
* A super-caffeinated beverage for students staying up all night to study called "Cram!"<span style="background-color: yellow;"><br />
</span><br />
* A comic book about a former member of the military who becomes a superhero and fights for justice using the moniker "Colonel of Truth"<br />
<br />
* A series of buttons above your car stereo which, when pushed, dispenses all kinds of snacks and hot or cold beverages in the area by your armrest. It's called "Dashboard Concession-ALL"<br />
<br />
* A "deliciously addictive" sugary breakfast cereal named "Crack of Dawn!"NiteOwlz / Glenn Page Musichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12366996516978413993noreply@blogger.com0
