Turk 182 Wendell tells me that Shohei Ohtani has passed Audrey Huff in career HRs (243-242) in 2951 fewer PAs! You know it burns the intolerant fucktwa's ass raw As Jeffrey Franken said in "Frankenhooker": "I'm plunging headfirst into some kind of black void of sheer & utter madness or something!"

May 25, 1979: 46 drug training years ago...we took in a wicked show with The Cramps, The Slickee Boys & Tex Rubinowitz and his Bad Boys at Club 57 at Irving Plaza! Or as human tagalong Mudman asked: "Is this 57 place the one where Liza Minnelli hangs out?"

Another one from my '70s Punk/Psychotronic crate. This one a May, 1978 ultra wicked week of shows at CBGB! May 24, 1978: And 47 years ago tonight...The Cramps with the always great Testors opening up! BTW: I'm told The Dickies had all their shows cancelled and that The B-52's headlined instead!

Bergen County, N.J...never failing to embarrass itself. Mark DeRosa going over AV Club's Top Ten List of Pearl Jam Songs...while sitting next to Albert Pujols. DeRosa: "Albert, you ever listen to Pearl Jam?" Pujols: "Nope" DeRosa: "You never once filled in on Pearl Jam?!" Pujols: "No"

Back in 1975, I came across one of these fab Rolling Stones '72 tour jackets at a ceiling collapsing Newburgh, N.Y. Goodwill store, for like a fiver. A few months later I had it stolen from me one night when I was alchy-fueled, action bowling at greased-up Wallington Bowling Lanes. Bastids!

Every day I check to see if the Red Sox have called up the #1 hitting prospect in the game, 21-year old Roman Anthony (.322/.450/.520 slasher at AAA) I haven't waited this long for a Roman appearance since slogging through Preminger's "Skidoo!" waiting for Roman Gabriel's walk-on as a prison guard!

May 21, 1971: Mercy (etc.)...54 years ago, Marvin Gaye releasing his life-altering "What's Going On" album. I once asked my pal J.J. Smuggo if he had the crucial "What's Going On" album: "Nah...my older sister took all that soul crap with her when she moved out."

Shiiit, growing up in the early '60s, we had a Hohner Cembalet in our house...but this type of debauched boozy floozie action NEVER took place! Once that low organ murmur started revving up, people just headed for the exits, like el pronto!

Another pull from my stuff. 1969: Daily News ad of CCR's new "Green River" album...for only $2.79 at Korvettes! Funny, I remember snipping the ad out, but not sure which WNY record store I bought it at...newby faux-hip Music Scene or the chronic record sleeve destroying antics of Jochems Records.

2021: So, 4 years ago on my WNY corner, this Hipster Dick pulls up at the light with his pal-packed BMW blasting Billy Joel's "Captain Jack". Hipster Dick: "Hey pops, tell these guys how great a song this is!" Me: "No can do. It sucks." Hipster Dick: " "𝐅𝐔𝐂𝐊 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐔𝐔𝐔𝐔𝐔𝐮𝐮𝐮𝐮𝐮𝐮𝐮..." (peeling out)

Another lit find in my stuff... July 14, 1977: Remembering that time 67-year old, Dewey-screwin' Kitty Carlisle went on about her long night of hardcore wax play during the great NYC blackout of 1977! To tell the truth, I'm not sure if I should put this gem in my Psychotronic file or Crime file.

May 18, 1973: 52 progestogen trashing years ago, Yes released their massivo triple ripple album of transmittal skata, "Yessongs" (or as we maturely called it "Yesschlongs"). Nice self-deprecating touch by Yes in listing the 6-sides on the "Yessongs" 3-bagger as 𝐙 - 𝐙𝐙 - 𝐙𝐙𝐙 - 𝐙𝐙𝐙𝐙 - 𝐙𝐙𝐙𝐙𝐙 - 𝐙𝐙𝐙𝐙𝐙𝐙.
