The wife of a good friend is (semi- or mock) annoyed with me because I described Huey Lewis as store-brand vanilla ice cream in a white cup. But what part of that is even remotely incorrect?
Hello,

Vanilla ice cream has more flavor.

As well, there's no such thing as bad ice cream. Perhaps there's some kind Limey cod cocktail ice cream or mad cow and onion ice cream, but in North America all ice cream is glorious.

How have I never noticed that Rhymin' and Stealing by Beastie Boys samples "I Fought The Law"?
That is quite shocking.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

'It's All True' is an opera-in-suspension from New York ensemble Object Collection based on the complete live archives of iconic underground band Fugazi.

Grounded upon the DC post-hardcore outfit's 1987-2002 Live Archive series, composer Travis Just and writer/director Kara Feely's work uses only the incidental music, text and sounds, none of Fugazi's actual songs. An obsessive leap into 1500 hours of gig detritus - random feedback, aimless drum noodling, pre-show activist speeches, audience hecklers, police breaking up gigs - is the foundation of an ear-body-and-mind-flossing 100 minutes for 4 voices/performers, 4 electric guitars/basses and 2 drummers. It's All True is overloaded, maddening, mundane, properly funny, and a radical incitement to action.

Have you bought this? Tho I'm not (sorry to say) a Fugazi fan—love the principle, the music has never fully appealed—the concept of this sounds wonderful.

No, I just found out about it a half hour ago. Going to take a listen at least though.

Your report will be expected on my desk by 9 am sharp. If it's not there, don't bother coming into work.

I organized a hostile takeover of PizzaCorp and was duly rewarded for my ruthless nature.

I must say, I didn't expect that kind of initiative from a graduate of Miss Landry's Typing School.
