The plain truth is, if you want an impartial analysis of beer, you can't ask a beer drinker. They just can't give you a scientific opinion because they care too much.

I've said a few times that music is math. I've also said a few times that I'm a Chinese jet pilot and that Halle Berry wants to bear my children so it's hard to tell when you people take me seriously and when you don't.

I was going to go quietly,
I was going to fade away,
But for the nine reindeer,
Who twisted my arm today.
Especially the blonde Vixen,
The siren I cannot stay.
(I am writing in verse,

Everyone wants to have a beautiful daughter. In fact, that topic came up last week. My brother asked me how things had changed since I hit the big 4-0 and I said, "Well, I have matured.
