Hellfire



"The more you drive, the less intelligent you get." Miller to Otto in Repo Man. (30 years ago)


Just finished Nick Tosches' "Hellfire," his biography of Jerry Lee Lewis. Took one weekend to read it and I had other shit to do besides.

Cannot recommend the book highly enough. Funny, frightening, philosophical and fucked up. "Hellfire" has it all.

Read it before you die, motherfuckers.

My grandson came home with a piano arrangement of Great Balls of Fire in a minor key and missing parts. Had to school him on the real thing via Youtube and various things in the iTunes library. Thought it was all pretty good. I didn't explain about marrying cousins and being blotto a good part of the time. We'll get to that later.

"Marrying Cousins and Being Blotto a Good Part of Time," ought to be the motto beneath British Columbia's coat of arms.
