I went to high school with Zach Galifianakis. He was just a little quiet kid who hung out with my brother. Now look how he handles hecklers.

There’s a shaking in my knees/yet strangely I feel pleased/ because I know it’s from seeing you today.
If your feelings were like mine, you’d make time—Steven Fiore

RIP Adam Yauch
Shout out to the South Bronx where my mom hails from
Right next to High Bridge across from Harlem
To the Grand Concourse where my mom and dad met
Before they moved on down to the Upper West
I see you’re still strong after all that’s gone on
Life long we dedicate this song
Just a little something to show some respect
To the city that blends and mends and tests
Since 911 we’re still livin’
And lovin’ the life that we’ve been given
Ain’t nothing gonna take that away from us
Were lookin’ pretty and gritty ‘cause in the city we trust
Dear New York I know a lot has changed
2 towers down but you’re still in the game
Home to many but rejecting no one,
Accepting peoples of all places, wherever they’re from.
Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Staten
From the Battery to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and Latin,
Black, White, New York you make it happen
In the months since the Lehman debacle, the US has no more lost the ability to grow and innovate than reality-TV producers have lost their ability to coax skanky behavior out of New Jersey’s youth—NEWSWEEK
Is it possible Jack White’s new album is an instant classic? Is it possible he is the ACTUAL thing that Johnny Depp and Quentin Tarantino are play-acting to be? Rolling Stone says his new album is recorded with an all-female band. He is on tour with both the all-male and all-female backing bands, and neither band knows which is playing with him at each show until he makes a call in the morning. He says it keeps the music sounding spontaneous.
