"My Trauma, Oh My G_d!"

Traumatic times all around! Monz got in his car, all set to go to Hussey's. Outside he sees a judge crossing the street, a judge he knows, and he notices that all the parking is taken up! Inside it's packed and by all apearances it's a judge party! Off to Louie Louie Louie Louie's where he was satiated by spaghetti with meatballs. An additional purchase (not leftovers) will provide dinner! And the kicker? There was another judge party going on at Louie's. The moral of this story? When it comes to lunch, judge not!

Meanwhile, the Music Editor (ME) had a troubling life passage this week, as for the first time ever he did not recognize (and indeed had never seen) the Video of the Year winner, Panic at the Disco's "I Write Sins Not Tragedies." Thankfully he was able to quickly check it out with MTV's hand-dandy video on demand thing. OMG. This is awful! A bunch of pancaked-makeuped dudes crash a wedding and turn it into a carnival. Viewers are consistently distracted from the "story" by the band calling attention to the fact that the "G_d" part of "G_ddamn" is silenced out. More distracting is that this band doesn't rock very hard, definitely not hard enough to cause any panic at any disco. No Coho-lips here. Definitely not as good as the ME's favorite video of the year: Be Your Own Pet's "Bicycle Bicycle You Are My Bicycle."
