Green Day: Then
It seems like only yesterday that Green Day were a bunch of East Bay punks disappointing their fans by selling out to a major label (Warner Bros.). Fifteen years later they've sold out a million times over, as well as millions of records. While some might argue about whether Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tre Cool are truly punks, no one will doubt that they have grown up. (They even have a second guitarist, the telltale sign of a band becoming "important." Look for a cellist next.) Their last album, "American Idiot," and the upcoming "21st Century Breakdown" (May 15) deal with very adult concerns like politics, religion, and big media (which is funding the release and promotion of their record - but that's another blog).

On Bitter Celebrity Custody Battles...ddfstop said "Children always suffer when their adults start acting like "children!" Tax Evation?? That woman is a fine role model for her daughter ... not! She should never be allowed to have any custody of their daughter because the daughter will only get bounced back to Jesse and Sandra the next time she decides to mess with the IRS. Even a genius will testify that that is not very smart ... forget being a genious. It ain't nice ta mess wit da IRS!!'Nuff said!"

The best dating club for seeking the rich singles, sexy beauties. What's the most important is that you don't have to be a millionaire, but you can meet one. BTW, Charlie Sheen found his true love on that site in 2007."

I can't believe that John Lydon showed up on People's Court. It was priceless to listen to Johnny make his sneering comments to Judge Judy!
