I grew up in Fairbanks, and every summer when I go home I find myself overdressed everywhere. The Fred Meyer's is like, the saddest place on earth. Sweatpants for miles. And um, people don't really exercise much there. Or walk even. Anywhere.

I predict that "The Lamb" would have been even better than "Showgirls".

I remember having a little group of girl friends that knew all the words to that album and we spent all recess singing on the swings. Good times.

Okay, for once he was right. He should have just shouted "You Lie!" from his seat.

Dan thanks for Slogging this. I really wanted to share the horror with everyone. I can't even recall the twisted web of clicking on stuff that led to these underpants.

Heartbeats is the only non-rap/hip hop song my boyfriend likes. And he LOVES it.
@2 I totally agree. Also, Jesus, Etc. is maybe in my top 5 Wilco tunes list.

@69 You are gold. Seriously. You hide behind the fear of a violent militant gay army, a coward unwilling to publicly stand up for your point of view. Unlike the brave assembly members who have been subject to some really ugly threats and comments on The Anchorage Daily News website from the right and the religious. You sir, are not a real Alaskan. Go ahead and keep your right to be a bigot and hide in dark. I love my state, but I find myself ashamed and embarrassed every time Alaska makes the news thanks to people like you.

@ 62 Ah but you're still missing the point. The mere use of the phrase "gay lifestyle" makes it obvious that you can't understand that sexuality isn't a choice. I never once thought to myself "hmm, I think I'll be straight", and I bet you didn't either. And neither would any sane homosexual person, considering that people like you are out to lessen their quality of life. Race, color, and physical impairment are all things you cannot discriminate against, all things you cannot control. Exactly. Like. Sexuality. Oh, and if you're so proud to keep your business and property gay-free, please, by all means, share with us the name and address of your business so we can boycott it, seeing as how being a bigot is your chosen lifestyle, one which I, and millions of other people will NEVER condone.

Hempfest has always made me feel incredibly uncomfortable. There's nothing there for the "normal" pot smoking person. For Hempest to say that they are trying to show the community examples of real advocates and enthusiasts is ridiculous. Hempfest is in itself a barrier to progress. The image put forth by Hempfest is not one that promotes the idea that your "average" person smokes. The whole place is one big stereotype. Until Hempfest expands its scope to make every kind of smoker feel welcome it will just be seen as a rally of ancient hippies and underage thugs.

@3 Seriously shut up. Labeling all mainstream comics as total shit just makes you look like a fucking moron. I can think of tons of excellent X-Men story lines that have come out in the last 5 years. Andy Kubert, Richard Isanove, Joss Whedon, Neil Gaiman, Brian Michael Bendis, Oliver Coipel, Joe Quesada and many other writers and artists are doing/have done amazing things with the Marvel Universe.
@9 Possibly, you don't really love comics. If you did, you would understand the feeling of holding the comic in your hands, smelling the paper, and knowing you have it forever. That said, I really love Achewood and was excited to be able to buy The Great Outdoor Fight in print and get it signed, something you can only do with a tangible product.
