DVD Release Party/Screening/Show Sold Out! →
153 tickets sold to my documentary screening Feb 20th with The Bobby Byrne Show, and a new event the following weekend has been added!
Cacao.
It's official!
The first mail-order (with a check! actual money!) has arrived for the DVD of “Let Me Sing: the Story of Bobby Byrne.” My accomplishments have monetary value! That’s all I’ve ever wanted in life!
I’m gaining an audience and maybe a little bit of dough to pay off something I spent a ridiculous amount of time, effort, pain and love on.
For those who don’t know,...
The R S T L N E of Online Dating Profiles
You know how on Wheel of Fortune, everyone picked the letters R S T L N E at the end, so now they just give them those letters, so they pick other things?
I think the R S T L N E of online dating profiles are the words
laidback
easy-going
travel
music
and
Kurt Vonnegut
Let’s just assume these from now on, and hopefully this will give men the freedom and creativity to pick other...

Nas on his love of cassettes.
—-
This is pretty sweet. I was a big mix-tape-maker and still a fan of tapes in all forms, in general. When I was home for Christmas, I found a great ska tape mix. I also had an answering machine that used a cassette tape for years. My brother and I would, of course, play songs and create cool or funny messages, as everyone in high school...
More Teddy Bears Talking to You In Front of the...
I got obsessively into sending my friends e-cards from a Teddy bear who spoke for me this week. It happens.
If you didn’t get one, feel free to listen to Emac’s, or D2’s, Amanda’s, Andrew’s, or the original one I sent, when I discovered the bear, to my niece Julia on her 4th birthday. They’re pretty innocuous and get somewhat monotonous, but I like them for...

I bought it! Buy music, everyone!
“Cake’s Showroom Of Compassion, the band’s first new album in seven years, has debuted on the Billboard charts at No. 1—which is certainly a commendable achievement for Cake. Unfortunately it’s also yet another sign that the music industry is in steep decline, considering it managed to pull off that feat with only 44,000 copies sold, a new record low for a...

PIZZA TRACKER IS BIG BROTHER.
And there’s this. The whole thing confounds me.
“When Michelle Obama implored restaurateurs in September to help fight obesity, she cited the proliferation of cheeseburgers and macaroni and cheese. “I want to challenge every restaurant to offer healthy menu options,” she told the National Restaurant Association’s annual meeting.

Police: At least 3 shot at California high school →

Los Angeles suburbs
All three victims appear to be students.
The alleged shooter is 14 years old and is in custody.
Apparently, the shooting was an accident. The school district is reporting that the student brought the gun to school in a back pack, dropped the back pack, and the gun went off.
Calling, texting, & emailing are so last year.... →

Hey, Golden Globe Presenters,
That entire event (and many more like it) is designed to kiss your asses. Gervais making fun of you was a breath of fresh air. Hear, hear.

Leo? I’m a who?
Thing is, the fact that you were originally a Virgo is also bullshit.
Everybody needs to calm down.
David Brock Explains to Chris Matthews That Beck...
When I first read that headline, I thought, ‘I’m a loser, baby, so why don’t you kill me.’
Then I realized I had the wrong Beck.
Still interesting:

7 hour flight.
