Please name the organization(s) that do more legal work on precedent-setting cases protecting constitutional rights. People working for the rights of gays to marry are, in fact, only saying "gays have the right to marry." There is nothing about saying that that also means, "and it's just fine...

I want to say they ran that story years before his death. They'll do that. The Onion, that is. When you get a good idea for a celebrity obituary, you can't wait around for the person to die.

^ it's among one of my favorite things, but not a favorite word. It always makes me think of animal noises in other languages. How a Spanish speaking rooster says, "qui qui ri qui!" And depending on dialect a Chinese dog says, "wow wow" or "wang wang."

Speaking of what is happening, I personally know gay couples that have been together longer than I've been alive. Currently they're denied the rights granted to any straight couple that have known each other a year and have forty dollars for a marriage license and a trip to a Justice of the...

The closest I really get is stuff like Propellerheads and Kid Koala. Kid Koala's "Drunk Trumpet" reminds me of Amon Tobin's "Easy Muffin." I do like Tobin's stuff that's chiller, like Four-Ton Mantis and Easy Muffin. I totally have a mental block on the genre. There was a band that...

I've dislocated my shoulder(s), can't remember - at least four times. And each story about them is funnier than the last. Really, no snow-anythingers on the board?

Personally, I never understood the draw of snowsports when I was a kid, since I grew up in socal. Juicy Fruit commercials are actually responsible for turning me on to it at all. Don't act like you didn't wish you were these guys with their awesome fluorescent gear. YouTube - 1987-Juicy fruit...

Well, there's plenty of $5 shows to be seen here, metal or otherwise, but we've never left one of those shows feeling like we'd never forget it. Except Lightning Bolt. And there weren't technically tickets for that. Even if you go through a smaller provider like Ticketweb, fees are still...

Well, the federal trial over the constitutionality of California's Prop 8 rested today. No verdict expected for weeks, and even then, no matter what the verdict is it's probably going to be appealed all the way to the US Supreme Court.

Lousy

Please don't take this like I'm being a jerk, because I'm really not. But how do you feel about your cost/enjoyment ratio? Like, I spend $100 on tickets all the time, but that's the price for me and four friends and we're close enough to high five the drummer.

I was thinking along that same line. From the bottom right corner, one over and numbers 3 and 4 up along with the 3rd up from the bottom left corner - have no interest in anyone knowing their name. Which is a shame, because I'm sure it took months of each member of the band filling the margins...

Anyone in SoCal should clear their calendar on 3/3/10 and prepare to be in Santa Barbara. I'm not at liberty to reveal the name of the band just yet. But it's going to be the feel-good event of the year. Guaranteed

Howard Zinn died today. He lived right up the street from me. How much better shape would we be in if everyone had read A People's History? I don't know. But we should try it and find out.

Crapulent and mountebank are up there.

You've not yet begun to cry for NY's school system Too bad, not long ago you could still listen to the mp3 of this story from This American Life for free. Here's the synopsis from their website where you can still dl it for like $.99.

Record Setter Biggest litter of Irish Setter pups ever: 16 Come on, you know the title "record setter" is hilarious.

Maybe if we ignore it, it'll go away.

Hey dude, Thanks very much for being cool about it. The goal is to make someone smile right before bed. Doing anything correct literarily would just be a happy coincidence. I totally encourage other folks to make up a little something and post it up here.

At least that rivalry would be fun to watch. What does anyone get out of a Steelers-Browns game? The Steelers bring cognac and flowers and it could be a real good time. But the Browns lay motionless in their grave.
