Like Stockholm Syndrome, in Reverse!
February 11, 2009 – 10:30 am
Yesterday evening I got a Facebook message from a friend of mine—a DJ, producer and soon-to-be label-head—expressing enmity for a certain band who will go unnamed.

Hexes’ and Eche’s

You are a Beautiful and Unique Blog Reader
May 15, 2008 – 10:50 am
Functioning (or not-quite-functioning as it were) as I am this morning on less than three hours of sleep has me feeling like the nameless protagonist in Fight Club when he discovers why he feels so tired all the time. I’m not living quite as exciting a lifestyle as he was, but as exhausted as […]
