    Great, great post.

    That picture above says it all, doesn’t it?

    Um. That picture kills me -- kills me! every time I see it.

    I'm looking for a good read right now. This goes on the list.

    Reading the coverage of the Clarkson murder trial on a daily basis, I have the distinct impression that Spector is in deep trouble...and deservedly so.

    I'm interested enough in the Spector mystique to give this book a try -- if I survive the Warren Zevon book, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead. (And I like Zevon more than Spector.) Sometimes too much is really just too much.

    Kevin, I've read both. So I sympathize.

    "Here is a guy who should have been involuntarily committed to rehab or extensive therapy years ago.That picture above says it all, doesn’t it"
    the photo always terrifies me in a way I can't explain
