Neal Pollack on rebounding from massive hype and six-figure deals to online publishing →
avclub.com
For a guy who spent years pretending to be a fake writer called “Neal Pollack,” Neal Pollack has always been one of the most honest writers I know.
And Nathan Rabin is a great interviewer.
That is all.

Bruce Springsteen’s SXSW Keynote: “Listen up youngsters: this is how successful theft is accomplished.” →
npr.org
The Boss’s SXSW keynote is well worth listening to. It’s really a kind of musical history: he takes you step-by-step through his family tree of influences — Elvis, Roy Orbison, Phil Spector, The Beatles, The Animals, Punk Rock, Soul, Motown, Stax, Curtis Mayfield and The Impressions, James Brown, Dylan, Hank Williams, and finally, Woody Guthrie.
Rather than focus on technology or changes in the music business, he pointed to what doesn’t change: creativity, or “how you’re putting together what you’re doing.”
The purity of human expression and experience is not confined to guitars, to tubes, to turntables, to microchips. There is no right way, no pure way, of doing. There is just doing.
He was also totally upfront about his knack for creative thievery. After playing The Animals’ “We Gotta Get Out Of This Place,” he said:
That’s every song I’ve ever written. That’s all of them. I’m not kidding, either. That’s “Born To Run,” ”Born in the USA,” everything I’ve done for the past 40 years.
He then went on to show how he borrowed from “Please Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood” for “Badlands”:
Listen up youngsters: this is how successful theft is accomplished… It’s the same fucking riff!
And finally, as if he knew how obsessed I’ve been with authenticity lately:
We live in a post-authentic world. Today authenticity is a house of mirrors. It’s all just what you’re bringing when the lights go down. It’s your teachers, your influences, your personal history, and at the end of the day, it’s the power and purpose of your music that still matters.
Awesome talk. Go listen or read these 20 highlights.

“You must have a room, or a certain hour or so a day, where you don’t know what was in the newspapers that morning, you don’t know who your friends are, you don’t know what you owe anybody, you don’t know what anybody owes to you. This is a place where you can simply experience and bring forth what you are and what you might be. This is the place of creative incubation. At first you may find that nothing happens there. But if you have a sacred place and use it, something eventually will happen.”
—Joseph Campbell on having a “bliss station,“ in The Power of Myth (via austinkleon)

Marzden and Jasper were at the playdough table. “I’m trying to make a fish,” Jasper explained with his forehead wrinkled with concentration. “Marzden, we have to find some fish for the dead dolphin.” “Here’s the fish!” replied Marzden. “Here are the eyes and here are the mouth.” “We have to save the dolphin in a little while,” Jasper decided with a thoughtful wrinkled chin and forehead nod.

You are one of my 20+. Please keep it going.
Warren Buffett, in a recent interview with CNBC, offers one of the best quotes about the debt ceiling:
“I could end the deficit in 5 minutes,” he told CNBC. “You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election.
The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people demanded it. That was in 1971… before computers, e-mail, cell phones, etc. Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or less to become the law of the land…all because of public pressure.
Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise. In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.
*Congressional Reform Act of 2011*
1. No Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no
pay when they are out of office.
2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.
3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.
4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.
6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.
7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/12. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen. Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work. If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will only take three days for most people (in the U.S.) to receive the message. Maybe it is time.
THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS
If you agree with the above, pass it on. If not, just delete. Please don’t reply to me. You are one of my 20+. Please keep it going.

I took the Trazzler quiz. Here’s what it said about me:
Not only are you fond of starving artists, there’s a high probability that you may indeed be one. Your aesthetic obsessions make you equally at home in urban graffiti gardens and established museums.
