OK ... that version of "My War" is horrible. No one can convince me otherwise.

chuck dukowski just emailed me thanking me for buying his cd. i like that. $8.00 for a compact disc AND email from him? score!

further, if dexter holland would do the same with his hot sauce... well, i'd still probably not bother to buy, but it'd be commendable on his end.
