Fan Turetzky Syndrome on Facebook

Thank goodness Facebook has gotten so hot, because I’ve been on Twitter for months now — blogging for even longer — and I’m so bored with those stuffy old media.

LWIM! album cover earns Gigwise honor

Incredibly, the editors of Gigwise.com somehow overlooked my comedy music EP, Look What I Made!, for their notorious 50 Most Controversial Album Covers Of All Time feature.
