Like all good volcano stories, mine starts hanging half out of a jeep getting a video of the eruption smoke bellowing in the air, letting out a series of stoked chants like, “whoohoo” or “let’s goooo!” No, that isn’t right.

“How old are you now?” Nick Griffin asks on a road trip to a gig. At this point, Griffin and I have history. We are kindred depressive souls on a perpetual search for jokes and stories both in and out of our heads. “Thirty six!” “Wow,” my on and off again writing partner says, not

Guts All Over The Pavement

The dead don’t last long in the heat. A squirrel, freshly killed by a vehicle, is like McDonald’s for the hovering scavenger birds.
