From yesterday’s Los Angeles Times: “WASHINGTON – The Internal Revenue Service has informed the NAACP that it is investigating whether the civil rights organization improperly “intervened in a political campaign” when it posted on its website a speech by Chairman Julian Bond that condemned the Bush administration’s policies… I think what’s at issue is our right…

I’ve got to admit, I’m on my last legs. October has simply been SO intense, and I’m ready for a couple of days without having to BE anywhere, without having to drive anywhere. I’m ready for a break. I’m at College Perk at the moment, and I know that I’m radiating fatigue. California. PA. My brain’s…

It’s been a really good day. We did an interview on WVCS, the local California radio station, and later we played with much vim, zest, and vigour at the Underground Cafe. I have nothing else to say about that right now, because I’m completely exhausted. My fingers are a little sore, my brain hurts from…

So – California , Pennsylvania . I Love this town – tiny and beautiful. We’ve driven through Pennsylvania at an ideal moment – summer cresting over into fall – California is hidden in a crook of the Monongahela River (one of the few rivers to flow South to North) mixed with mountains and logging communities. This…

“Hey Rob, Im sorry to say that we passed on the Ilyaimy record. Its obvious you guys are talented which is what makes it tough to say no. The problem is that I didnt find any true hooks in the songs, which is one of the major elements I look for in a great radio song.” Sigh.…

So, today was spent running around in circles. And not in a good way. Though Jeff saved my LIFE by coming out and doing a quick fix on the Saturn (it needed a battery!), we still ran the car over to his shop to get the rest of the electrical system checked out. Then return…

So – there is a deity, out there, hovering. He’s spitting on us. He’s doing worse than that. In fact, he might be a she. There’s a petty BITCH deity who’s really pissed off at us, and we’re not sure what we did, and we don’t know how we did it – but MAN, we’d Love…

It’s 2am and the cats have given up. For the last 24 hours, perhaps 30, I’ve been sick as a dog (though, to my experience, sick as a cat is perhaps more appropriate, though this might imply more of a mental element) – dripping without warning, feeling cold, and my throat has felt like burning…

It’s interesting – Georgia and Kat wanted to know what “our plan” was. Georgia has a very specific game plan involving a CD release, a book, a sampler CD, another Someone’s Sister CD – all working together towards a common goal, raising money for the prevention of child abuse. Our goals, and our plans to accomplish those…

This morning there was an evil duck dominatrix in the shower. She may not have looked it on the surface, but every moment I turned away from the faucet, this bastard tweaked the temperature. Either too hot or too cold, if I looked the wrong way, the temperature was sent rocketing in the wrong direction,…
