    Thanks to Dennis Leary’s No Cure for Cancer for the title to this post (and for giving me a name for my category about food). I was just thinking about what I miss most about Louisiana. Being close to family, friends, yadda yadda. What I really miss are the burgers. Not that I eat a [...]

    Proving once again that most of the residents of the Blogosphere are suffering from terminal cranial rectal inversions, Radiohead’s OK Computer bested Neutral Milk Hotel‘s In the Aeroplane Over The Sea in a 90s album throwdown over at MerrySwankster.com. And I don’t really want to hear it from the Thom Yorke fanboys about how he [...]
