  1. Recently, I was at a serious work function and I was surprised when, from across the room, I heard the Bugle playing loudly. I thought one of my coworkers was playing music to loosen up the group and was excited to find out who the other CFKA in the group was. But then I realized my cell phone was over there and I had forgotten to turn my ringer off. I was so embarrassed and ran to get my phone. But afterward I was glad that I had exposed my coworkers to the glory of the Bugle.

  2. Let's speculate on how Dom might know Goldie Hawn....

     

    1. Kate Hudson was in a bad car accident and Dom was a witness. He bravely helped her from the car mere moments before it erupted in flames. She is forever grateful and now they are close friends.

     

    2. As a boy, Dom was in one of Ms. Hawn's youth education programs through The Hawn Foundation. He probably would have dropped out after the 8th grade had it not been for this youth program and Dom is forever grateful. He wrote Ms. Hawn a letter a few years ago explaining how much she helped him. She wanted to meet him, so they had lunch and she instantly liked him. He's like one of the family now and has spent the last two Thanksgivings with Goldie and Kurt.

     

    3. Hawn's 11 year old grandson is a huge fan of Mystery Team. He begged his mom to hire the Derrick Comedy guys for his last birthday party. They came and wowed the crowd. Ms. Hawn was there and asked Dom if he knew any good "podcasts" she could be on. She just heard about this crazy medium and wanted to get into it.

  3. Well, it's Monday, and now that I've had some time to reflect, I'm ready to give you the SXSW fashion report.

     

    For women, you either have to wear all black and lots of jewelry OR a denim vest over the rest of your outfit. Those are your only two options and you must pick one. You may not choose both, and you may not choose to wear something else.

     

    For men, loud Hawaiian shirts are still in, but their popularity seems to be waning a bit. Band t-shirts (black or white only) are obviously still OK as long as it's either a cool band on its way up or a band you only like ironically. Also, this is key, danglers are becoming a necessity. Yes, the trend of one dangly earring on men has been omnipresent for a few years within the hardcore scene, but this year it really exploded, and it's not confined to just hardcore anymore. No matter what genre you are in, you must now get a dangler.

     

    Also, these bands were good: Uniform, Ultimate Painting, Michael Rault.

     

    Dang, I need to find myself a denim vest. I'm still wearing the denim jackets of 2010.

    I had an inkling I was being duped, but I felt it was worth the risk of getting egg on my face to make it to the show.

     

    Can you blame me?

     

    Don't worry about it. Everyone has fallen for OD's PCG question. Like a rite of passage. And it's a nice exercise to practice and prepare for the real PCG. One day I hope OD gets lucky and chooses someone who is actually the guest the next week.
