Headline of the month! All that's missing is guns:

Monster Truck Kills Woman in Strip Club Parking Lot

Driver Arrested for DUI at Spearmint Rhino

Do you see headlines like that in Germany? No. In Germany, you see headlines about consensual cannibalism. Which in my opinion is a bit weird.

No word at press time whether the truck had a schnorkel.

Jaguars have been known to eat avocados.

I once met a house cat in Berkeley, CA who had a habit of breaking into a neighbor's hous to eat their avocados. He also showed a keen interest in babies' fontanelles.

A word to the wise, my friends. Forewarned is forearmed.

At my age I've got no excuse for setting foot anywhere near a hardcore band even if I wanted to, but the other night it happened anyhow. You sort of grin and bear it.

But I learned something! It turns out that the mind of every hardcore singer is composed of two distinct personalities: The Epileptic Zombie and the Constipated Zombie. At any given moment on stage, it's eerily apparent which one is in control.

Update!

Also, a bizarre and richly-deserved assault on the Rolling Stones, via Mick Hartley.
