ErnieBot is temporarily shut down.

I will leave the blog up for sheer shits and giggles, knowing that some of the things I’ve written in such a short time where entertaining for a few of you out there.

In the meantime, you can check out the new Pinky Cloudkicker

A letter to Rolling Stone Magazine

Dear Rolling Stone Magazine,

I just finished reading your top 100 songs of 2007 and I have to tell ya, that list sucks.

Yes, I understand, you have to cater to the hipster, the R & B-ers, the hip hop fanatics and the old people that used to read your magazine back in the day when it was good, but really?  Holloweenhead by Ryan Adams made your list?  Every song on that whole album is better than that one song.  Definitely NOT the highlight of his new album.  And I would’ve definitely gone with a different Wilco song.

But really, I’m just one girl, with one opinion.  You are a collective team of shit eating hipsters in ratty ironic t shirts and intentionally greasy hair that sit around and fling musical references at each other in a failed attempt to prove your indie cred.

A letter to Commentors to Katherine Kersten

Dear Blog Commentors,

Everyday I read Katherine Kersten’s blog on the Minneapolis Star Tribune and everyday, I appalled at the outrageous lengths some of you go to in order to make a very ridiculous point.

I personally think that Ms Kersten is a lousy journalist and bases her articles on out of context quotes taken from some sometimes not very reliable sources.  It’s no secret that I do not share the same political beliefs as her, but I refuse to resort to the tactics that some of you use when making a point.

I’m not taking sides here and pointing the finger at any one “political” side.  Righties and lefties alike, I’d say at least half of you act like raging morons, stooping to 4th grade playground name calling in order to make someone feel bad.

It’s really disgusting.
