I guess this could have gone in the music or reading sub-board, but since he was a little bit of everything I thought I'd put it here.

I never read his book, but I saw the movie and I loved his music. Sad to see he died as young as he did.

Rest well, sir.

Well anyway, hi there, folks. You know, I'd been having trouble with velvet leaf, uh, cutworm and, uh, foxtail and, well, that's when the representative from Monsanto came out to my farm. He recommended a pre-emergent, inferral mixture of Lorsban with Atrazine in a tank mix and I told him to get off my land. - Farmer Joel

Basketball Diaries is one of my favorite movies.

He also gave us the term...Trenchcoat Mafia. At least that scene in Diaries did.

Bix Dugan:

1. Joel- Do you (or a fellow CT writer) really listen to Howard 100? If so, the next movie that CT riffs on, AND features a little person, please throw out an "Eric The Midget" reference...

Bix Dugan-- Yes, actually I do, and in “The Oozing Skull” there is a reference to “Eric the Midget”, but I guess you didn’t catch it. I sort of got my Dorro voice from listening to Fred Norris
