ON VACATION!

Be back in the office on January 10, 2002.

Read the Christmas column in the 'Columns' section of the site, if you haven't already.

You still have time to get the "Gooch Extra" ornaments from the merchandise site. I bought six of these myself and they really look great. Buy one and hang it on your Christmas tree. Hell... hang one on your Menorah. Like I give a shit. Just buy it.

Have a happy holiday.

goddamn.

I'll wrote more later this morning, but I wanted to say hi to the new visitors to the site.

Hi.

Picked up a new wireless phone ("cellular" isn't cool to say anymore). I will talk about that.

I'm doing lights again for Perfect in Plastic at the Ohm this Saturday. Don't miss it.

To my friends that I haven't emailed lately, I've been busy not Christmas shopping, not working out, and mostly taking apart my computer system and building it back up like Richard Dreyfuss did with his in-house dirt mound in Close Encounters.

Check out the MERCHANDISE page. New Genie hooded sweatshirts and Corona-logo-ripoff ornaments. No gift says 'I love you' like an altered picture of me on a sweatshirt.

'tis the season to try to sell shit... fa la la la la la la la la

Sometimes, when I'm having a bad day, I like to relish in the misfortunes of others. Peep Winona Ryder's shopping spree: CLICK HERE.
