I'm of the understanding that Creature Comforts Brewing is a secure shelter. I should know. I'm, like, really smart.

Speaking of...Todd Snider solo/acoustic on Wednesday.

Interesting take...I as well think 2018 is going to be a son-of-a-bitch of a year. 2018 is the 50th Anniversary of 1968.

Thad Cochran barely knows where he is most days. Suffice it to say this would not be ideal.

Yet somehow, universally seen as an improvement.

Well the important thing is that you spit on your father’s generosity in order to stick it to someone who doesn’t give a shit if you keep the ticket or not. You know, Zipperhead, I've NEVER liked you. Mainly, for ignorant comments like the above. That, and the fact that you are a fucking DORK! Only...

Todd Snider on Friday at our favorite Jackson venue Duling Hall. Last time he was here the crowd was awful and the show...did not go well. Todd walked out after 5 or 6 songs and didn't return. I hope the audience is more respectful this time. How could anyone possibly not enjoy a Todd Snider show? ...

Roy Moore is now just running a scam to con people out of their money. My guess is he never admits defeat. He will keep 'fighting', as long as you keep donating.

Nanci Griffith? That surprises me.

IIRC, he liked to piss into the cars of folks who drew his ire, especially when said cars were convertibles Who doesn't? A friend who worked in the biz in Nashville had all kinds of stories about how Allison Krause was renowned for shitting in the shoes of ex’s or anyone who crossed her...... alleg...

I'd like to remain optimistic about 2018, but there are only 10 Republican seats up for election, and they are in strong red voting states.
