My internets are broken, which confused me this morning because the storm was very mild where I live....

The only funny thing is trying to imagine the discussion that led up to the decision to do this. I mean seriously, how fucked up to you have to be to decide that this is the logical Point B that's ...

The WTF bar has been raised to a new level....

They're in the bedroom closet with Jesus and Big Man Japan....

The one thing I'll always be grateful to my parents (and in-laws) for is the lack of ever asking me when I'm having kids. I guess they've known better for a long time, since I hated kids even when I ...

This just in....20 year-olds are stupid....

I smell something but can't put my finger on it. Or won't put my finger on it....

LM, I think as long as it's your diarrhea, you're OK. Just don't talk about someone's wife's diarrhea....;-)...

It's a shame what's happened to the Backyard. It used to be a great venue, and if it were allowed to co-exist with the shopping center it might have worked out, but the beauty of it had already been ...

Stubb's is good, but it's not in my top 5 venues, all of which are smaller. So for it's size, yeah, I guess so. The sound there is consistently good....

The Monotonix CD is good. It's really hard to bottle what is one of SXSW's most consistently awesome live performances, but they did a decent job. ...

Lineup is decent, not their best, but a far cry from their worst. I'll buy a single-day pass once the daily schedules come out....

5-10 minutes? Heck, it wouldn't have taken me 2 minutes if the poll worker hadn't been so bored that he had to explain to me how to use the voting machines that I've been using for the past many elec...

I've only been to one ACL taping (Bob Weir & Ratdog), but it was the second coolest show I've ever been to, behind only seeing Roy Harper in Chicago. Austin really does have some amazing stuff that's...

Both Pat's and Geno's are bunk. Go to John's Roast Pork for the best cheesesteak in town....

Oh, and I should have mentioned, I saw White Denim for the first time at the Little Radio/Noisepop party on Wednesday and they do indeed put on a fine show. Austin's Octopus Project was also outstand...

I pity the fool who missed the Wooden Shjips set at Mess with Texas 2....

"...4 illegitimate children by various teenage girls..." I'm assuming "various" means up to and including four?...

Huh...2 or 3 days off is "too much time off"? Nice sweeping generalization. I have considered riding the bus, but it still leaves the original question of where to park up in the air. Looking at bu...

Actually, free parking or paid parking, I have no preference - the catch is I want to be able to leave my car in one spot from noon until 2am. I don't get downtown on weekdays much, so I'm not even f...
