Go Team!

Everyone is going 'crazy go nuts' here in the Tampa Bay area - hell has frozen over, the Bucs are in the Super Bowl! Even I have got a bit of the spirit, not enough to write a message with shoe polish on my car, though. Just enough to have a pleasant tingle of anticipation. I love the Browns, but I've lived here long enough to have a soft spot for the Bucs.

Soup's husband is manager of a Bucs paraphenalia store - there is a two hour wait just to get into his shop. She's taking shirt orders, I found a neat Bucs tie dye shirt, I finally broke down and asked for one of those as she was placing her morning phone call/shirt order to him this morning. Already at 9 AM, he's having crowd control issues, so we'll see if he remembers.

Speaking of tie dye - my brother told me that Kurt Cobain wrote in his journal that he would only wear a tie dye shirt if it was made from the blood and urine of Phil Collins.

Here's the quote:
"You know what I hate about rock music? Tie dye t-shirts. The only way I'd ever wear a tie dye is if it were stained with the urine of Phil Collins and the blood of Jerry Garcia."
-Kurt Cobain

Man, you've got to be a mean little fucker to say something like that about Jerry Garcia.

I guess Phil's laughing now, Kurt.

I knew there was another person in that quote - I guess I was blocking it. You're right, what harm did Jerry do?

Too bad Kurt's dead, I have that shirt.

PS - ask Soup if she has a jersey from my favorite player, Ryan Benjamin.

If the jersey is available, shall I get one for you?

I'd be pretty shocked if they had that. Besides, I would never spend that kind of cash on a jersey. At least not if it wasn't Satan's Sabres jersey.

kurt was a pussy, he couldnt deal with anything. He needed to learn to suck it up. all he did was complain about what a horrible life he had, and he did have it pretty rough, but all he did was bitch, bitch, bitch. he was also a pompous rock star. on the jerry garcia/phil collins qoute, i think kurt was just jealous of jerry and the mass following that the dead had, where as all the nirvana fans were to busy hating everything and killing themselves. phil collins and jerry did nothing to kurt he would probably have loved to where a urine and blood tie dyed shirt being the sicko that he was

shut up, will. bite some ignorance some more. you obviously have no idea at all what you're talking about. i don't know who you are, i don't know what music you listen to, but i can only assume your favorite bands were "wings" and kip winger.

that or you're a 13 year old on the internet who gets his premature ejaculations from posting worthless flaming comments about someone who is dead and can't defend himself.

grow up.

That Kurt Cobain quote isn't from his journals. It's actually from an interview done with his wife and him by Everett True. Kurt mentions it out of nowhere, starting with, "Do you know what I hate about rock?" Courtney makes fun of him for mentioning it "again." Apparently their last interviewer wouldn't print it.

It was nothing more than a satirical comment not to be taken seriously, if you read other interviews with Kurt Cobain you'll find that he does this a lot.

As for Will, he's an idiot.
