Who knows if it's really authentic or a well done hoax, but if Pete didn't get awesome and smash it, the guitar must be a real beauty to play.  

You have the rarest of rare opportunities to bid on a piece of genuine rock n' roll history. This is a 1964 Rickenbacker [...]]]></description>

Since Charter's Ultra60 Mbps happens to be this post's sponsor, I should quit being facetious and note that they are also one of the fastest providers in the nation, so they  claim. I am feeling rather inclined to crow on about their viability in providing Internet with phatband speed....which I am to assume means "super rad fantastic speed." Right now it's based in St. Louis, but look for it nationwide [...]]]></description>

Of the several people I know with new babies or ones on the way, finances are tight, especially IN THIS ECONOMY. Hell, my hours have been slashed here leaving me in a state of half-time, like the undead equivalent of a member of our workforce and I'm sure the extra mouth my boss will have to feed will take [...]]]></description>

It was pretty gnarly so I won't go into the gory details here, but let's just say it was one of the more graphic and disturbing scenes I've had to deal with. Even though we were understandably furious with her surviving rat, my girlfriend refused to get rid of it. Why? She loves animals and wouldn't want any harm to come to her weird, sociopathic pet. I still referred to the little bastard as â€œsnake food,â€ but [...]]]></description>

The Deal: Charter Cable is giving new and pre-existing customers a chance to win gift cards in this merry month of May. And there's no obligation to buy. As Bill would say: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As far as my vision is concerned, I must have been hit with the magic bullet at birth. Every member of my family uses reading glasses, and many have to use glasses all the time just to see clearly 20 feet ahead of them. Perhaps that's why so many members of my family have gone into vision-related fields of work (some cousins own a glasses shop in Canada, my cousin is getting a doctorate in vision-related sciences, my great-grandpa was a watchmaker and in his spare time made eye glasses).

		<description><![CDATA[Last night was the official kickoff of the Fortress of Attitude SXSW Tour. We made it all the way from Downtown Los Angeles, CA, to Venice, CA to open the show at The Good Hurt. At one time the club had been a serious FoA stomping ground, but the band hadn't really played there since they changed booking agents.

Regardless, it was a strong opening to the tour. The people of The Good Hurt took care of us, the sound and lighting were excellent and the crowd, though a bit on [...]]]></description>

This is a story about how the social values of this country have been torched by greed.

		<description><![CDATA[Just because I'm in a sleep deprived, over-caffeinated and under-stimulated mood, lets talk about our shitty economy, shall we?
A massive cut of jobs across seemingly all industries happened today, and it looks as if there's no end in sight for the recent layoff trends.  First off we have Caterpillar, makers of work trucks, equipment, etc. whom has been an American icon for blue collar workers ever.  As of today, the company is set to slash an astonishing 20,000 jobs.
aterpillar Inc announced it would cut nearly 20,000 jobs and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When you fail at snagging the Vice Presidency, what else is there to do? BE A LUCRATIVE PORN STAR!
From Canada.com:
Florida-based porn director Cezar Capone has offered to pay Palin $2 million to appear in an adult film production.
Capone promises in an open letter on his website that the film would be distributed internationally, shot in high definition, and feature a "beautiful mother recognized by all of America as well as the rest of the world - the most desirable woman over 40."
To prove he's serious about the offer, Capone says [...]]]></description>

Jeffrey Campbell "Marly". Get 'em here before that bitch you hate gets 'em first.
If you've never heard of the Jeffrey Campbell brand, let me elaborate. I'm not plugging him for an personal benefit or gain (unfortunately), this isn't some sell out review or ad for them. But I'm 100% genuinely in love with Jeffrey Campbell. Comfortable, durable, and not outrageously expensive ('bout $100 a pop), his lasts are handmade and I'd wear about 85% of his styles which is pretty rare for a shoe designer since they like [...]]]></description>
