Crasshole in Pornoland
I love porn, all kinds of porn. Of course, some pornography does certain things for me while others do not, but I still enjoy the concept of it in all kinds of ways. Classic porn has informed our popular consciousness and I still get a kick when I watch Linda Lovelace in Deep Throat and think that her actions are going to be a reference to one of the biggest political scandals of all time.

Rock is Death
Some folks say rock 'n roll is dead. That may forever be up for debate, but regardless, a large part of rock n roll is death. From fanatical obsessions over the tragic death of rock icons, to the live-fast-die-young-leave-a-pretty-corpse attitude of rock culture, it's as hard to imagine rock without death as it is to think of Jimi Hendrix without his Fender Stratocaster. Gnarly rockin' death jams make shuffling off this mortal coil seem like the coolest thing since fire.
