"He lay beside me on the couch as I read him passages from my favorite books: "Franny and Zooey," "Cathedral.""
So I take it Craig is banging a middle-schooler?

Aren't all modern rock genres so narrowly defined that at best only one group fits each description and they then adamantly deny being so easy to pigeonhole?
Straight Outta Compton was a love song.
I would agree in a lot of cases, because a lot of people prize originality too much in this era of over-recording, but in the case of grind I would say that it has integrity as a genre.

"Good HEAVENS!" I bleated. "Only in New York!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Aaaah, hot sauce: the cause of -- and solution to -- all of life's vexing problems.
