PEEVE DE JOUR: Depression 2.0 - the worst BMI check in decades.

...plus the AIG bonuses. there was a commentator on NPR yesterday who went on and on about the sanctity of honoring the executive's contracts, and that to break 'em would set a bad precedent.

but contracts get broken all the time!

the recourse for the injured party is to sue, which would expose these execs as even BIGGER scumbags/tie them & their dough up in court for ages/further publicize their shameful antics since law suits are in the public record/wait out AIG's probable declaration of bankruptcy so there will be to entity left to collect from/etc.

the Obama administration should have done this before the bonuses were paid, instead of their post-payout hand-wringing that seems disingenuous.

JOIE DE JOUR: itchin' to test out my new Pro Tools remote control box so i can record drums in another room.

good stuff, cb. feel like i was there. i promise i'll get to one of these gigs in the future and thus avoid any ensuing "feel like i was there" lameness.

btw - whatever happened to the footage of cb and the cranks at the goldhawk? didn't you have someone film a gig there?

What's the deal with TVLAND using "boys like" in a promo for a new show called "The Cougar?" Will that put a boost in the next BMI check?
