Dane Cook: I’m so popular I could get 4,000 idiots to “like” a stupid emoticon on my Facebook page.
Chris Flannery: No way… in how much time?
Dane Cook: One hour.
Chris Flannery: I’ll bet you $100 you can’t.
Dane Cook: Bring it. (Makes a shocker gesture and shakes my hand).

Judee Sill – For A Rainbow Lyrics

by

as transcribed by me from the Bill Callahan cover version:

Where did our dreams all go?

If you touch me you could let me know

Like the storm breaks for a rainbow

We watched while love disclosed white forever (?)

Lets save moment glows

While the storm breaks for a rainbow

If i could only show how my heart breaks

And the memories flow

Like the storm breaks for a rainbow

You gave me more than know

But i’ll remember what we treasured most

When the storm broke for the rainbow

I’d give my life, my soul

if you love me once before you go

And let the storm break for the rainbow

Where did the rainbow go?

volume 68: you won’t lose the beat if you just keep clapping your hands

Capitalism in Wilkes-Barre

by

Hey Wilkes-Barre, Congratulations you made it in the new Michael Moore movie Capitalism: A Love Story… for sucking. I’m sure most of your children belong in juvie anyway, but you shouldn’t have tried to make money off it.

You’re not The Boss of Me

It’s become abundantly clear, Bruce Springsteen has only three good songs. Here they are in very particular order:

Alejandro Escovedo – Golden Bear

by

There’s a creature in my body,
There’s a creature in my blood,
Don’t know how long he’s been there,
Or why he’s after us.

Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)

But I’m as stubborn as a tree trunk,
A screen door in the breeze,
And like a wildcat in the summertime,
The sun can’t hide from me.

Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)

Last night as I lay dreaming,
Caught an endless wave,
My brothers battled out behind me,
And formed a circle ’round my grave.

Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)
Oh, why me? (Golden Bear’s running down)

Gammons on Camden Yards

The building of Camden Yards is the second most important event in Major League Baseball since World War II after Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier. – Peter Gammons [paraphrased] 9/14/09 on Baseball Tonight

The State Theme / Nation of Ulysses

by

Is it known that the “Action, Action, Action!” portion of the theme to The State (1993) called “Boys and Girls” by Craig Wedren (of Shudder to Think) actually copies/rips off/homages the song “The Hickey Underworld” by The Nation of Ulysses off of Plays Pretty For Baby (1992)?

If not, than I am pointing it out. If so I’m just restating it.

Fig Newtons

by

Every couple of years I come across the packages of Fig Newtons in the grocery store, think of my grandmother, and then buy them. Immediately after taking my first bite, I’m taken back to Clark Street in Old Forge, PA where I fondly remember telling my grandmother that I hate these disgusting cookies.
