    In an unrelated story, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) announced that they have completed their collection US Supreme Court Justices.  Dusting off his Clarence Thomas, Mitch Bainwol, the RIAA CEO stated that their member labels now own the copyrights to any and all Supreme Court decisions.  When asked if this was in any way related to the growing number of lawsuits regarding artist rights, Mr. Bainwol replied, "We tried working within the law once.  We didn't like it.  Now, we'd much rather just steal the money.  When all the money is gone, we'll steal their becan.  Yeah.  We're That Evil."

    So, we should compose any "hits" before we're in our 40's so we can collect on the rights while we're still alive. I guess I should have quit writing about 10 years ago. Well, I guess I kind of did quit. Oh, well. I was just sitting around waiting to keel over anyway. LOL

    Should auld acquaintance be forgot--hey, who the hell are you guys?
