The kid can write his own ticket!
City For Conquest: Sensitive composer Arthur Kennedy’s sitting at the piano during mobster Elia Kazan’s fancy blowout, and reluctant welterweight Jimmy Cagney implores him, “Come on, Eddie. Play that song that I like.”
So Arthur Kennedy begins his sweaty classical masterpiece, and the partiers ignore him, start talking even louder, and Arthur Kennedy responds, bitterly, “I’ll show them,” and breaks into a wild, cheap, popular number he’s been holding in reserve. Continue reading

Nuke the debt! Vid protests bitter end
Thank goodness we finally have an Intelligent President. So what if the economy’s headed for collapse? At least the guy in the White House looks smart at a press conference!

Steve won’t stop playing my songs
I keep waiting for a break in the action here. Maybe Steve Wheatley will stop playing my songs, the same pitiful few, over and over again, so I can summarize the latest batch of episodes with a Podcast Roundup entry.
“Somebody asked how many times I’ve played his tunes on Dalecast now. I’ve actually lost count!” Steve mused in his charming Weardale brogue during one recent show. Continue reading
