The only thing I ever bought from a comic book ad—besides Sea Monkeys—was this: a Lincoln-Kennedy Penny. This is how we entertained ourselves with conspiracy theories before social media took over. Just thought it might give you a laugh. Enjoy!

This is heartbreaking. Clem Burke was one of those rare drummers who stood out not just for his incredible talent, but for his vibrant personality as well. His influence on music will resonate forever. Rest in peace, Clem Burke.

15 years ago my father and I went to the Oscars and had a hell of a time. UP! Won best animated film and score and was nominated for Best Picture. It was a wonderful experience for both of us. My dad loved getting a rise out of people.

It was a total set up. An ugly scene. They planned to ambush him to get him out of power. He rightfully won’t go forward without security guarantees and these two bullies went after him to either shame him out of office or publicly accept a deal that he can’t stomach

If you have never had the treat of watching Gene Hackman act, do yourself a favor and use this tragic news to look at his largely brilliant work as an actor. From The Conversation and Bonnie and Clyde to The French Connection and Unforgiven. He was a master.

Just heard Rick Buckler, The drummer of The Jam, passed away. they were one of my favorite bands as a teen. They were also the loudest band I have ever seen in concert. When I saw them at Santa Monica Civic in 1980 the sound system lost power for about 3 seconds. What a shock. RIP

When I was 17, I first heard Joy Division. At the time, my band, Insect Idol, was a punk band, and my friend and guitarist, Nick, played me a tape that instantly became essential listening—something that could never be turned off.

Happy heavenly birthday to my dear mother, who would have been 95 today. You are so missed. I hope that wherever you are, you are walking on a beach with all of your dogs and enjoying a martini.

My sister, Katie, found this incredible letter from my mom to my dad. They were obviously at a point where they had to make big decisions. In their life together. My mom lays it out here like the agent she was telling him he has to be on TV.
