In 1991 I did an interview wherein I described myself as a 'teetotal Christian,' which was an exaggeration, although I do like tea and Christ.
I like singing, but it's certainly not my strong point.
I think the word 'blog' is an ugly word. I just don't know why people can't use the word 'journal.'
I truly believe, as an institution, most major labels should just die.
I'm a terrible cook, so I usually eat out with friends.
Sometimes I love the marriage of art and commerce; I love Donna Summer; I like the Rolling Stones.
I'm envious of people who can sleep as long as they want. I have the circadian rhythm of a farmer.
I'm obsessed with politics, and I talk about it any chance I can get. I have strong opinions about how the world should be run.
Success usually breeds a degree of hubris.
If there is true evil in the world - it is Republican conservatives.
If you look at someone like Joe Strummer or John Lennon, when you heard their music you knew that they wrote it and they cared about it.
I don't have children, but I imagine if parents are really pushed on the subject, they probably have favorite children.
I remember I went to Berlin right after the Wall came down. I first went to East Berlin, and all the buildings were old and falling down, and now when you go back to Berlin, you know you're in the East because all the buildings are brand new and very tall.
I joined Facebook purely so I could play online Scrabble. You have eight tiles instead of seven, so you tend to have higher scores. I'm somewhere between 400 and 500.
