Health Care 101: Need Therapy? A Good Man Is Hard to Find

Hi, 

I don’t know about you but I actually have no idea who Mitch Daniels, coiner of the phrase “I love my country; I love my family more’, is or why his decision to not do something is getting top billing over at Talking Points Memo. Maybe it’s a slow news day? In any case, it’s definitely more important than that piece of fluff reporting about a certain group of life wasters have been wasting their lives trying to not let other people buy everything.  

And speaking of wasting your life, tonight I’ll be joining Mr. Andy Fitzpatrick and Mr. Andrea Longato over at something called The Scratcher Sessions at a place called, look out!: The Scratcher. We’ll be there at 8pm playing songs that Andy and his friend Will wrote. And probably a song about masturbation that they didn’t write. And speaking of masturbation, I’ll be playing with something called “My Upright Bass.” So, you should come. It’s not everyday you get to see a grown man play with his really big Upright Bass. Actually it’s only a 3/4 size. Which of course has been making me feel pretty insecure. Which is another reason you should come and offer some encouragement by telling me what a big Upright Bass I have

Mwah!

Race Relations 101: Cain Beats Perry In Florida Straw Poll Upset

Hi, 

Clearly in an effort to prove once and for all the Georgia is in fact a more racist state than Florida, presidential candidate Herman Cain was handily handed Rick Perry’s ass by about 2000 Floridians in something called a “Straw Poll” following the republican presidential nominee campaigners debate. Yeah Florida! In case you spend all your time following would be contemporary soft rock starlets around the Lower East Side, Herman Cain is black and Rick Perry is the Governor from Texas which by definition makes him not black. You’re welcome.

In related news, I just cleaned my kitchen while listening to the soon to be forthcoming album by The Dig. What? Oh you haven’t heard it? Well, this is one of my favorite songs …

You can come tell me how jealous you are tonight at The Scratcher Bar where I’ll be playing something called The Double Bass with Andy Fitzpatrick for something called The Scratcher Sessions. The Scratcher is on 5th St and Bowery. We start at 8pm.

Mwah!
