Phobia Phorum

DAILY LOAF

My roommate (and BFF!) suffers from lepidopterophobia -- that is, fear of butterflies. Over the years, I've given him copious amounts of ridicule because of this. Frankly, I don't get it: The guy's a construction worker by day and a death metal guitarist by trade. He had a fairly hardscrabble upbringing in a working-class neighborhood on [...]

The Short List -- Sat., Sept. 6

02:16PM, 09.06.08

-Some big names have announced some big Web-only projects: Michael Moore will release his new film, Slacker Uprising, online and for free.

Omphaloskepsis

(noun): Contemplation of one's navel as part of a mystical exercise. Or, alternately: A blog post about blogging. Permit me to retroactively introduce myself. I'm the new intern/sycophant here at CL this fall. I even have my own cubicle! (Out in the hallway, where the paid staffers mock me at every turn.) Before [...]

I shot this video at the Anti-War March on Labor Day outside the Republican Convention in St. Paul. I would have posted it sooner but I got the shit kicked out of me and was arrested shortly after the march ended. Very big bummer. (also viewable on youtube if this isn't loading for you) Bookmark It

Automatic Lovetter tonight in St. Pete

02:09PM, 09.05.08

Hometown pop punk heroine Juliet Simms (pictured) and her band Automatic Loveletter headline a killer lineup tonight at the State Theatre in St. Petersburg. Yeah, Simms is young, pretty and dressed to impress the Hot Topic set, but she also has a powerful, expressive voice and pens thoughtful lyrics that reach beyond high school hallways. [...]

Mitch Hedberg album out Sept. 9

12:55PM, 09.04.08

Mitch Hedberg, who died of an overdose in 2005, ranks as one of the last true originals of comedy. There really wasn't a precedent for his slyly delivered, zany observational bits. One of my faves is, "I like rice. Rice is great when you're hungry and you want 2,000 of something." Hedberg issued only two albums, [...]

The songs on the disc are culled from a batch of 35 that Ament says were never submitted for use by Pearl Jam. Which could be true. Or they're just [...]
