Former Bostonian, crotchety funny man, eternal Red Sox hater and all around good guy, James "Truck" Turner, is bringing his particular brand of good humor to the web-waves.
He promises this is the first episode of nine that chronicles his travels from 617 to (do they even have phones in Appleton, Wisconsin?)
Check it out:
do you know that regular JOHN said we'd be rich and famous right now? he said hollywood would be beating down our door, signing us to product endorsements and multi-picture deals.
you probably already know this, but regular JOHN is a damn liar. i know that all he wanted to do was hitch his pathetic life to my rising star by video taping me and putting me on the internet. oh well, the fact that only about 50 people (mostly relatives) have watched MY video is almost worth it, knowing how much rJ was hoping that it would take off and we'd be burning bridges, ignoring emails and not returning phone calls by now.
you know you're really EVIL, when your own failure brings you some pleasure.
EVIL JOHN OUT!
P.S. hollywood, MY second episode comes out wednesday, so keep you check books handy.

You believe there to be only two types of people in the world, those who dismiss your opinions as intensely ignorant and drunk Irishmen.
I guess my hackneyed prose was worthy of the hallowed columns of the venerated Boston Globe albeit a week late... albeit only in the local City Section... albeit on a slow news week (mine was the only letter.)
But bitches, I'm published.

If you like kicking it old school:
First he split fingers my fast balls, then he writes, and I quote:
"Finally, your urinalysis was unremarkable."
Who is he to judge?
I have a humble dream of creating a line of tricked out (and customizable) adult big wheels. Two obstacles would be access to a large plastic mold making apparatus and a lack of a sizable customer base.
Well, maybe now there's only one obstacle:

Rundown of (long) weekend.
1. Saturday - Car gets shit shorn apart by hit and run driver overnight.
2. Saturday - Write check to government for taxes. An unfortunate side affect of being freelance.
3. Sunday - Can't stay at what seems like the most informative and exciting Boston Media Makers yet.
4. Monday - Stranger touches my sensitive parts, calm down, my new doctor.
5. Monday - Change tires on smoshed car and find out it won't drive.
All that, and somebody vandalized my blog's banner.
Somebody please tell me why I like this song?
Not only is it a Cadillac commercial, it's also a non punk song about how punk Iggy Pop is (or was).
It's kind of like "We're an American Band" by Grand Funk, which is a song about how rocking they are. It sounds so desperate, it makes me almost hate cowbell.
Like I always say, if you have tell us how hip/punk/sexy/gay you are then you can't be that hip/punk/sexy/gay.
And while were at it please tell me why I have high hopes for this?
