6:14PM Jess McGuire | This afternoon I began thinking about Short Stack. Even though months have passed since the infamous day Defamer Australia was attacked by barely literate youth baying for “blud” after I penned a less than complimentary review of their idols Short Stack, I still get hatemail from angry teenage girls. Hell, even the bass player’s father hasn’t let the incident go.
Suddenly, it hit me. I knew what I had to do. More »

I wonder how Lorelei is going to approach this incident when she bangs out Issue Four of Courtney Love’s Twitter Updates In Easy-To-Read Magazine Interview Style? More »

1:37PM Jess McGuire | So it’s been exactly a month since I last had a cigarette or an alcoholic drink. I’ve done it cold turkey, and I feel great (physically) but the not entirely unexpected side effect has been that I’ve become rather short-tempered.

The only thing that is calming me down whenever I encounter idiots is Fleetwood Mac’s Greatest Hits. I am not kidding. More »

Oh, happy day! More »
