Growing Up: A term which accompanies the sense that things in life used to be better, and that even someone five years younger is having a better time that you are right now. The slighted return may come soon.

Back in High School, just like every other teenager, me and my friends were obsessed with The Price is Right. During our Senior year, those with 4th and 5th period free would leave campus to go to my friends cabin and watch the show (and get stoned, drunk, or just sit around, it was all the same). Come Spring Break 99. We’re in Bermuda. It’s Spring, which means it’s actually not that

Old is new again. A bunch of lists. Top Five Songs by the Clash. At the moment. 1. Clampdown. 2. Complete Control 3. Janie Jones 4. I’m So Bored with the USA 5. Police On my back. One note here… It’s something tremendously clichéd to fathom, but it’s possible that “Train in Vain” may be the greatest song the Clash ever wrote. It’s not the best Clash track, and their original

When I was dating this girl in 2003, I was just out of college and using every friend I had to try to get a job. My link from her lead me to Fox Studios on Pico. This was about July of that year. The whole place was abuzz about “The OC.” They were saying it was going to be huge, it was supposed to be next great show. I mean a show about teenagers in Orange County? You have to be kidding me.

Anna Nicole’s death is the American newsmedia equivalent of a winning the lottery, which as the obvious metaphor would be, the same kind of life Anna Nicole had. From hillbilly, to stripper, to national icon, to a Naked Gun star sex pot, to pill popper, to rehab, to sex pot, to shill, to lucky mother, to corpse.

And here comes a list of the old classic films that every film student will implore you to see. There is the scene in The Rules of Attraction where the POMO film student is reeling off his love about cinema, and speaking about “Man and A Movie Camera (MAMC).” Forget the disaffected artiste chic pretending to be in on the know; this is a moment that so encapsulates the outward persona of a film

The long list of things that pissed me off in 2006. Paula Denada. Rather than get into a “thing” again, I am just going to say this chick bothers me to no end with her music. Her new single has a rapper for urban stations and not one on pop stations. It’s one thing to have a remix, it’s another to be the focus of dual minority marketing forces when she’s no older than 17. In her second single, “

I never have been able to stay away from the big topics. Last year I worked 3/4’s of it in relative solitude, toiling along on a graveyard post. The silence of the job in the hours between 2a and 5a creates a perfect time in which to delve into the long topics of existence. I don’t know what I did more in 2006 that could be deemed worthwhile than to debate the existence of God. It’s a simple

I thought 2005 was bad. There was Katrina and while it happened in the last days of 2004, the Tsunami disaster permeated the opening months of this year. This year was no better. The wars just keep coming, and they keep getting worse. Iraq is turning into the exact opposite of what I thought it could be. Instead of becoming a beacon of hope in the region, it’s now host to a civil war, where the

I don’t know if much of the people who read the newspaper, and have done so since being a kid, are able to live without having Good Ol’ Charlie Brown in the pages. To lose him is to lose one of the definitive memories and lived in experiences of life. We outgrew Marmaduke, The Family Circus, and Garfield, but you can’t really outgrow Charlie Brown.

In the last week, I have toyed with my incompetent manager, as if I am trying to wedge indifference between myself and him (not for the joy of it, but in hopes of getting him to admit his ineptitude to me and the rest of the workers), gone back to the only job where I didn’t get promoted at, and eaten at a seafood buffet ranked by the food network as one of the top 5 in the country.

One of the standing pontifications in my maternal household is the importance of George Martin on the Beatles. It’s not a debate because no party in the group can acutely pinpoint what is Martin and what is Fab. For any Beatle-hater, the first argument often taken is that they were a product of the time. That their greatness has more to do with luck than it does talent:1. The Kennedy

Tonight at work, my subconscious suddenly reminded me of one of my favorite Far Side strips, I think it was the high school marching band competition groups staying in my hotel. It’s one of my top 10 of the strips run. Actually, it's fighting with the strip where a group of devils read the suggestion box in hell and laugh maniacally for #1The illustrated portion of the strip is an angry mob (

Watching the OC tonight I had a few thoughts. 1. Maybe some of the original appeal was the constant fighting. I mean, when the line “Welcome to the OC, bitch!” is in the trailer and the first episode, people may have come to expect fighting. Esp. since fights broke out in the first six episodes or so. While this seems like a back to basics season, maybe having Ryan be a cage fighter was a BIT

For most of the memories of my life, if I am forced to think of them, I have a hard time figuring out what qualifies as a truly great day. I have many cherished days in my life, but it’s hard to tell if the moment was great because of the people who you were with at the time made it seem all the more wonderful, or if there was one hour so great that it made the day seem all the more rosy in

In the rest of the county, Labor Day is the end of Summer, both weather and season wise. Weather wise, it finally turned to Autumn here in LA last Wednesday night. The sky gets darker, the locals call temperatures below 60 F (or 12 C for any international readers out there) freezing. There is a smell of fall, almost a burning smell, as if there is a crisp residue of the town’s morale finishing

Let’s start off with food stuff. It’s easy. One of the reasons I love LA is because it’s the sushi capitol of the world. And while that’s an easily debatable point coming from me on this blog, these aren’t my words. Most cuisine mags have conceded this. Between the harbor and the marketplace which accepts all kinds of sushi lovers with insatiable palettes that are tied into the very nature of

I said it a while ago, and I’ll say it again here to preface. Of the Billboard stars, few artists make great videos (this is discounting jailbait girls) anymore, and if they do make a great video, they almost always follow it up with a thunker, then another crap vid, and then one of those videos that is so bad, you only could see it once on MTV or VH1, because that’s as much as the music label

Muse – Knights of CydoniaMuse is a decent English band who came out in 2000 with Showbiz, a decent album which was one of a slew of bands and albums that were either directly ripped off from or inspired by Radiohead.

So it’s time for another music video post, in what is going to be a coming feature installment as we here at INLY try to create a schedule for publishing, (read: a reason for people other than our friends to check this site out) and realignment of what we here at the site will do. As it stands with Dave, Monday’s will be for movies. Wednesday’s will be Videos, but to be punny it’s called Wideos,

It’s a Beatles song that is better than the original. That’s something I can only say about Joe Cocker and Otis Redding in historical value. Fiona Apple nails this song. The video, directed by the once Wunderkind Paul Thomas Anderson (well, he did Boogie Nights, that’s gotta count for something)Let me note two things. This is a perfect example of when to cover a song for a movie. It’s not

Ok.

I always liked Tom Cruise. I still like Tom Cruise. He’s rated as one of the coldest celebrities in the city, but you know what, I never went to movies because of actors anyway. Except for maybe the other Tom, Mr. Hanks. But really, are we all that bitter at Tom Cruise because of his 2005. Are we Americans all just willing to turn on anyone who goes a little nuts? He’s been around for 20+ years,

One of my favorite quotes that Bill Simmons ever wrote was from last year, when the Colts were 12-0 and many were calling Tony Dungy the best coach in the game. It was something like this: “I think Dungy’s demeanor is a little strange, as he’s top of the heap and he still seems quiet and nonchalant. Can you imagine if Brian Billick was 12-0. He’d be in a bomber jacket, smoking a cigar and

Cinematic mashup highlight / The beauty-truth thing. First off: They have been around for about 4 years, best I can tell, but mashups are one of the after effects of the Electronica era of the late 90’s. Some of my favorite albums of the late 90’s/Early 00’s were sans guitars. Albums like You’ve come a long way baby – Fatboy SlimMezzanine – Massive Attack (not a huge Blue Lines fan)Surrender –

Evolved to be the most powerful, filled with a God-like arsenal, and left with few equal enemies in the world.

He gets to be Jack Black the persona more than he is Dewey, which would almost always make it seem like he is just playing to the audience. This discounts that we love actors for doing this (like everything Bogart was)… so what. Dewey’s maturity was bound to grow, it’s part of the plot. What Black does in this film is

I have always gotten into fights with actors and dramatists when it comes to the virtues of cinema versus theater acting. More often than not, they feel that these two are one in the same, and the expression of so many facets is all important and thus should be what qualifies a great acting performance. Call it a difference of opinion. I can’t stand Glengarry Glen Ross the movie. Lauding the

The opener “alone, jealous and stoned” is dynamite sad bastard music.

I hate Bonds getting the record, but not because of who he is as a person, but because of the lack of moment tied to it. He wasn't a hero, he isn't an anti-hero, and sadly, he doesn't seem like he is out for anything other than himself. As a baseball fan, I hate seeing this moment, because I know how great it is, and I can get little joy from it due to everything that surrounds the chase. Tied

I am really sick of racism. It really shouldn’t exist at this point, every war has been fought, and there isn’t any reason why a person born after 1975 should be subject to racism. Everything anyone could teach you about how one race is different from another is wrong. Sure, there are truths to stereotypes now and again, but the whole thing is incorrect because if religion has taught us anything,

Your boomer generation has done nothing but run the other direction from the strides made in the 1960’s.

About every six weeks at my hotel, they have a NA meeting for the weekend, former narcotic users run around the place, and most of them can be lumped into one of two categories; A: Sex fiend (they come to these things looking for an orgy) B: Chain smoking Cigarette fiends. I heard a guy say he went thru a carton over a weekend. That’s like me killing a keg in the same period. So they don’t drink,

Pacers lost. And I am somewhat glad. I didn't need to see this team go half the distance to fall apart again. This team needs to be blown up and refit for chemistry.

Living in Indiana, I was raised conservative by osmosis. People didn’t like Clinton; they liked the Repub revolution of 1994, and were for the death penalty. While the Bible Belt sentiment surely crept into the mindset of abortion, there were far too many white trash teen pregnancies to dismiss the idea as a whole. Around 1994, I was against letting a woman into the Citadel, I was pro-death

For all ten of you readers out there, I figured I compile a list of terminology and catchphrases we uses here at I Never Loved You. Let’s start with some of the simple stuff. GD: Dave’s abbreviation for God Damn. Don’t know why he uses it. Whatev’s: Steaze’s pseudo-gay way of saying he’ll do what he wants.

I am an Arsenal fan. Or I try to be. It's hard to do so in the states, especially since I only started following the team in 2001 and because I have no other attachment to them other than Nick Hornby. Until today I followed them as passively as a total fanatic could, watching only on FSC and occasionally going to the websites. It was a team who I followed but never got the moment to ever feel

Rather than judge any show against each other for a time being, lets take some of the best and simply place the season runs against t’others. Drama and Comedy are included. There are no restrictions for entries, but I am going to limit them somewhat. By the way, if Miniseries were included, Band of Brothers would have taken this one in a walk.

PrimerThe night before was filled with nervous joy. 9 days of worry-free nonchalance is a mighty dish to eye once it’s been put before you. One knows that you can’t overdo it, you can’t go all out from the beginning, yet the overwhelming upside of such a feast is thoroughly appetizing to the body and mind. The rational path is the second in sequence, following the notion of indulging to impulse.

So I got me here this email from my pa. I don't how many of you shop at Sears, but this may be useful to know. I am posting this to you to warn you of something that happened to me, as I have become a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. This happened to me at Sears and it could happen to you.Here's how the scam works:Two seriously good-looking 18-year-old girls come over to your car as

So I have been sitting on this post for a while, having it be essentially footnotes (gotta cut footnotes) to a retrospective of the 80’s culture and the renaissance it had when the I love the 80’s launched. It’s taking a while because it’s part of a larger look into the strange culture of anti-celebrity America is going through, and how it likely relates to deep wounds of 9/11 and the Iraq war.

So, while I am saving money to pay for MS word (or Steaze gets me a copy), I may be writing more abstract works for a while in the blogger box. So I'll start with a multi meed post. Top Gear is probably my favorite show on computer. I say this because I never find it on the proper telly and I am forced to watch google and Gvids.

One of my more painfully memorable hotel moments came last year when I was working at the Belamar in Man-ha-ann Beach. It is a boutique style hotel, very cutting edge. Hell you can see most of the place in the video linked two posts ago. There were a lot of smaller wedding ceremonies that took place there, and we always grew close to those involved. For five days, we would drive them around,

My outlook in life and my views have been determined, like everyone else through the lessons that have forced their way down my throat, and in most cases, by kicking my ass in the process. You can’t drink that much booze without consequences. You can’t win money in casinos. You can get ahead, but you can’t leave a winner. It’s just not in your mentality, Dave.

A year ago I stated that Indie 103.1 was one of the reasons I wouldn’t leave LA. This double as a completely true statement and one that clearly has ties to deeper creative longing. I could physically leave LA, and it’s not like the only thing stopping me from doing so would be a radio station. But a while back, I posted a long 3 part post about Rock and roll and the meanings of Punk, and the

Time and death lay heavy for all men. They are as they were the year before. Time may be a fragment of our imagination or a concept our minds can’t yet fully overcome, but as it is today, if your friend Justin takes a digital cam picture and then shows it to you, then your mind process the fact that this image is of a person younger than you. While it doesn’t feel the effect now, it processes it

This is a set of footnotes in reverse order to the Kid A Fight Club thing that turned into a long digression worthy of a post. If you want to read something long and decently interersting, read the post that follows. If you want something short, sweet, and sexy, stay here. Before we get to them, I would like to note that the enjoyment I had writing these was far more than the post that spawned it

So Steaze, Marcus and I went to Dockwilder a few nights ago and got shitfaced. Probably the most fun I have had since I was having sex and the theme from the A team came up in my playlist.

It’s that the final chapter of his legend happened to intersect with a unique and more personal love of mine.
