Mike Baus sent me that link and I almost broke down in my office in tears. Hughes' movies were no great works of art, but they do represent a place in time. A very fun period of time. Maybe more fun than I've ever had since. And the fact that I lived in the north of Chicago suburbs where many of Hughes films took place just makes his death a little bit sadder and me more nostalgic. Fucking A, I'm tearing up.

hey, you can rent studio space for 3 hours in soma. Lennon Studios. They supply mic and PA. We just need a drummer. Who can drum? anyone?

Better days, or just younger ones?

I'm really handy with a needle btw. IVF has made me an reluctant expert.
