Turning the old Rocklopedia Fakebandica website into a new, wiki-based website continues, with the letter D now finished! It’s a bit tedious copying and pasting entries over, but it give me a chance to add and improve each one as I enter it.
So what’re you doing hangin’ round here?! Go check it out already! Enter one yerself and help a brother out!
Make for glorious triumph Yuri Gagarin of FIFTY years ago spaceman in space to being first over American pigdogs.
We Van Gogh-Goghs would like to take a moment to congratulate ANOTHER one of our own on the birth of his brand new baby daughter! Born September 12th, 2008 at 8:16 AM, weighing in at a nicely healthy 7 pounds, 1 ounce.
Congratulations, you are now officially old.

So by now I’m sure every comedy dork and laughter enthusiast has heard that the legendary George Carlin is dead. I’m bothering to actually post about it because once, many years ago, I won some comedy contest and got to open for George Carlin when he performed at UNC. I met him backstage, and found him to be very approachable and unpretentious.
He’s also the first celebrity I pulled my universally-adored “call the famous guy by the wrong famous guy name” gag: I called him “Slappy White“; and let me tell you, got big laughs. This gag was so big about 7 or so years later I had an encore to do it again, this time to Eric Idle, who I called “Benny Hill.” I’m hoping by 2014 I’ll get to call Jon Stewart “Jimmy Fallon.”Â
Opening for George Carlin really was a huge honor, and I think the biggest crowd I’ve ever been in front of without brandishing a weapon. So thanks, Mr.Carlin, and have fun using the word “Cocksucker” in front of Ghandi and some saints.
…and hello, WordPress.
