Small world. My second cousin once removed does too. Maybe we were once related by marriage!

Well, between my two sisters and their spouses, the total marriage count is 14, so it's possible we were!

Which of these awesome bands did he ruin?

The Pretenders
The The
Modest Mouse
The Cribs
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

We're talking post Smiths Jack. And besides Morrissey solo is way better than the Smiths.

Guess you didn't hear the news. Noel Burke is the new lead singer of Morrissey solo.
