We were lucky enough to be interviewed by a truly funny and gracious human being who works for NBC. Contradiction in terms? Apparently not. His name is Ben Aaron, and he was very very good to us.<a href="http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150156810754865">Facebook Video...

As 2010 turns into a bent shriveled old man, and 2011 prepares to be contracted out of the universe’s uterus, I’m filled with a profound sense of gratitude and happiness that I am not yet dead. Yes, it's true, 2010 saw George Bush and Justin Bieber join Paris Hilton in the rank of best-selling...

Saudade. That's Brazilian for being happy and sad at the same time. I always feel that way as summer dies and Old Man Winter gets ready to blow cold all up in me. And this year's no exception. I'm sad that another summer has come and gone. It has become increasingly obvious that I'm never...

This is all true. My earliest childhood memory is being shot out of the end of my father's penis at over a 100 miles an hour, like I was on some crazy human cannon sperminator ride at an amusement park. Looking around I was shocked, they were just so many of us, 6 million bigheaded tadpoles all...

Sterry writes with comic brio… [he] honed a vibrant outrageous writing style and turned out this studiously wild souvenir of a checkered past.
Stunning… Sterry's prose fizzes like fireworks. Every page crackles… Very easy and exciting to read--as laconic as Dashiell Hammett, as viscerally hallucinogenic as Hunter S Thompson. Sex, violence, drugs, love, hate, and great writing all within a single wrapper. What more could you possibly ask for?
