I am totally convinced that Baby Suri is the cutest thing alive. She is an absolutely adorable little muffin-head, and I find her much more appealing than the conventional wispy blond-haired, fat-mouthed good looks of Shiloh Jolie. So when the Scientologists finally staked their claim in the ‘Burg, you know I was at the party, because [...]
This weekend, I went to an art show at a tattoo and graphic design studio called Blackout Creations (the same one Mr. Autopsy promoted). In a lot of ways, it was the usual ‘Burg opening. There are three things you will always, always see at a St. Pete art show. The first is a crew of [...]
Well, well, the Bible Belt weekend was pretty intense. Nashville is not the main draw to the area at all, though. The awesomest part of the whole trip was Kentucky, without a doubt. Nashville was OK. Rural Tennessee was very cool, but Kentucky was amazing. The flight into Nashville was cheap, under $200, and the hotel, [...]
Apparently, everyone in the universe wants to go out to dinner on Valentine’s Day. I didn’t particularly want to go anywhere schmancy, but I did kinda want to get something nourishing and delightful after toning my figure into various heart shapes and curves at the gym all evening.

I like Mitzi Gordon, Orange’s former editor, very much on a personal level and I think she’s a good writer, [...]
Hooooray, guess what I did tonight? Kicked it with a homeless dude, of course, ’cause, you know, you made such a point of it. I walked out of the Garden, where Sam The Pickles was playing the deep drum-n-bass, makin’, like, two pretty girls shake their ass for fun, before I hit the Brandy’s Liquor Lounge [...]
Reax Magazine is hot in the middle of the first annual State of the Scene Readers Poll. The poll aims to determine what’s hot in the Sunshine State’s independent music scene. I like this poll for a few reasons. First, the competition is fierce. Mega vs Ranmecca vs. Jask? Oh nooooo. The Basiqs vs. Red Tide? I know which I [...]
Me and Mark and Lil Sis and Eddie went to Mastry’s on Saturday night for a warm-up before the insane throwdown that was DJ Mega and the Hornet at the Lobby. Lil Sis and Eddie were staying at Dad’s condo on Davis Island and Dad and Eddie have hit it off extraordinarily well much to the [...]
