If I only had something to say, I would. As of late, I haven't really. Want news?

No more apartment life for me, I'm getting a house.

The Nazz really were a fine group.

Lillian Vernon might wnt to consider selling cock rings.

Um, wow who pissed in your wheaties Jason? A horrible review of a great
record. Jealousy does not become you.

Please take a look at this article from PopMatters:

Right. Why is it you morons never understand disliking an album? I'm sure you don't like a lot of records as well, does that mean you're jealous of those artists. Two Way Radio sucks and so did their album. Deal with it. Their lead singer is lousy and their music isn't anything revelatory. It's standard modern rock pap. What gets me is how old this review is and how only now some of these folks are stumbling upon it. Says a lot indeed for the group, doesn't it?
