Plasma & Veganism: a review

I was dazing off to music this lazy hot afternoon, just to forget the long day, until my mom had scared the shit out of me by somehow popping up in my room quietly.

The album I was listening to was NYC Ghosts & Flowers by Sonic Youth.



Thought I'd review this since I haven't done a review in awhile and this album is vastly underrated by other great Sonic Youth albums such as Sister, Daydream Nation, Goo, and Dirty.

On we go.

Free City Rhymes : Starts off with a spooky like setting with haunting guitar work which later transitions into experimental rock that Sonic Youth is notable for. It'll continue on until it fades out into a noise jam & the same guitar intro from the beginning. Great space out track.

Renegade Princess : It begins slowly by Thurston Moore's vocals until it builds up slowly but surely to punk rock status. It lasts for a brief minute until it fades out to distorted guitars. Marginal at best track.

Nevermind (What Was It Anyway) : A little infectious guitar beat sets the stage for Kim Gordon's vocals for two minutes. The track later goes into noise jam session followed by angst ridden lyrics 'till we get distorted guitar ending once more. You could live without the track if you wanted to.

Small Flowers Crack Concrete : A change of pace in this album made by Lee Ranaldo dark lyrics (I like to call him the George Harrison of Sonic Youth.) Ranaldo performs the song by spoken word while Moore says the chorus & the rest of the band goes by their own pace. One of the stand out tracks.

Side2side : Noise jam with a whispering Kim Gordon. To me, it just faded in with the previous track. Not necessary but worth a listen.

StreamXSonik Subway : Another dark track backed by angry guitar work. Cathy at best track with space rock elements. Slightly undercooked but its an susceptible listen.

NYC Ghosts & Flowers : Why must every album have to contain a title track? Usually I consider them to cheesy at best but I usually try to absorb it if its any good. this is one of them. Another Ranaldo track with his usual underlying dark themes of cynicism backed by eerie guitar work. Another stand out track.

Lightnin' : I found this to be a pointless, useless instrumental track. A bad song to close the album.

In conclusion, its a good album if you want to get into Sonic Youths obscure deep cut albums. Worth the pick up at a record store used. Brand new? Save your money unless its cheap.

But anyways...get out of bed right now 'cause a teen age riot is out there waiting for ya.

I worry about the human race sometimes...

You may all know that I have a very huge distaste about Katy Perry, the one who sang "I Kissed A Girl" which lead to a lot of teen girls to claim their bi. That one.

Well people are eating her CD's from her new album.

SOURCE

As you may know, I LOATH her new album (review can be read here) and the nauseating aroma it contains on the very CD itself but are people that stupid to think that a compact disc is candy? Apparently, they bought the album so who could blame them?

As you were people...

9/11 & Burn a Qur'an Day

A lot has been said about 9/11. Some positive, some negative, some far out. As for me, I still stand by on what I've said about 9/11 and my opinions. For some that did not read about it, you can see it here on my blog but I'll leave some excerpts...

The people who did it WERE NOT Muslims, They were fanatics.

Real Muslims condemn terrorism.

And heres some actual Qur'anic verses that vouch for REAL Muslim beliefs. Once again, credit goes to friend of mine.

Oh you who believe!
Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to God,
even against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin,
and whether it be against rich or poor,
for God can best protect both.
Follow not the cravings of your hearts, lest you swerve,
and if you distort justice or decline to do justice,
verily God is well acquainted with all that you do.
Qur'an 4:135

The recompense for an injury
is an injury equal thereto (in degree),
but if a person forgives and makes reconciliation,
his reward is due from God,
for God loves not those who do wrong.
But indeed, if any do help and defend themselves
after a wrong done to them,
against such there is no cause of blame.
The blame is only against those who oppress men
with wrongdoing and insolently transgress
beyond bounds through the land,
defying right and justice.
For such there will be a penalty grievous (in the Hereafter).
But indeed, if any show patience and forgive,
that would truly be an affair of great resolution.
Qur'an 42:40-43

Goodness and evil are not equal.
Repel evil with what is better.
Then that person with whom there was hatred,
may become your intimate friend!
And no one will be granted such goodness
except those who exercise patience and self-restraint,
none but people of the greatest good fortune.
Qur'an 41:34-35

Ahh, so true...

One year passed and still stand by it, along with my belief that 9/11 was a lie and a planned attack by the United States government. Still refer to the blog for reasons why. Plus I will not listen to your complaints since I got them last year I posted the said opinion by actual New Yorkers. And I want to make this clear.

If I have offended, I am sorry. I didn't mean to show that I do not have remorse to those who have died in the attack. The poor souls were just in the crossfire in a wide scale conspiracy. Also on the ninth anniversary of 9/11, Americans stopped, as they should, and reflected, whatever they were doing, just to sit there, reflect, do nothing, say nothing - just like Bush did nine years ago when he got the news.

But in the end, whenever we keep obsessing about 9/11, the terrorists win. We don't need to totally forget about it, but we need to move on and stop obsessing over it because if we live in sadness and fear, terrorism has worked.

And for the record, if Americans that think terrorist is a synonym for middle east Muslims should be punched repeatedly in the face unless they're under the age of 10. Seriously no one that's even pre-pubescent should be dumb enough to not know what a terrorists is.

Now for Burn a Qur'an Day.

I HIGHLY disapprove and not the answer. Just ignorance.

I mean, if a bunch of people got together and said "Hey, lets order a bunch of free Christian bibles and burn them..." you can bet your ass there would be some kind of huge freakin' uprising. But, people think it's alright just because it's the holy book of a controversial religion?

It just pisses me off that people can be so ignorant and that this is being broadcasted overseas which gives the idea that Americans are like this in reality most of them are not.

It's pretty much sad that this country was founded on religious tolerance.

But all in all, smile because the world is a gift since were all in this together & wish me me a safe journey if you still like me and you're not one of those people I have managed to offend by doing nothing.

Yours truly...

It's plastic...must be fantastic: a reveiw

Alright, since Interpol’s new self titled album came out yesterday, thought I would review…if I had the record. Sadly I don’t and rather not download it since I support Paul Banks work. So I thought I would stay on the topic of pop albums. Had to get rid of the taste Katy Perry left in my mouth and nostrils.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: Goriilaz’s Plastic Beach.



I will be reviewing the “Experience Edition” which features Plastic Beach cover art at night, booklet with partial cut up lyrics, and a DVD with a making of the album. The standard edition features Plastic Beach cover art at sunset without a booklet and DVD. Very flimsy, in my opinion. The Japanese edition (if your able to get a copy) is the same as the “Experience Edition” but has the Plastic Beach at daytime while the iTunes features Plastic Beach at dawn.

Plus the album is, you guessed it, a digipak…which I fucking hate but I can bite the bullet since I love Gorillaz. But one with the songs…

Orchestral Intro : The albums opener featuring ocean ambiance , seagulls, and fog horns, the things you would hear at the docks, along with some nicely placed orchestral strings. Really sets the mood until it transitions to the next song…

Welcome To The World Of The Plastic Beach : Now for the ear-candy by none other by the one and only: Snoop Dogg with Damon Albarn backing vocals. People, if you want any song that involves Snoops guest vocals on a current album, this song would be a safe bet. You get his classic vocals that make him the legend he is along with the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble backing him up with, dare I say it, a nice dope chill beat. A great follow up.

White Flag : For some strange goddamn reason I love the beginning orchestral strings by Lebanese National Orchestra for Oriental Arabic Music in this song. Probably due the fact that I watched Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom over and over till the tape wore out when I was a kid, or I let the Bollywood channel play in the background when I have nothing to do in my room. But none the less, after the intro you get assaulted with amazing raps by Kano and Bashy until the track fades out to the Arabic orchestra. Picking up its pace.

Rhinestone Eyes : 2D (Damon Albarn) takes the front stage by taking the pace with a much slower but upbeat mix of synthesizers and vocals. Slightly undercooked but still stands on its feat.

Stylo : When this song was one of the first singles that was released on January 26, I thought this album would suck epically. Let it be taken by a grain of salt since I took a quick second listen and didn’t give it a chance. I was wrong. Incredible flow with a legendary vocalist, Bobby Womack, taking the wheel with his powerful voice. Plus Bruce Willis was in the video. Sold.

Superfast Jellyfish : Features vocals by De La Soul (the one who provided the vocals on Gorillaz classic: Feel Good Inc.) For some reason, I found this one to be a dud and entirely forgettable and if not by Damon, I wouldn’t give a second glance. Hit and miss if you want to place it that way.

Empire Ants : Absolutely perhaps one of the albums highlights. One of the best. The track starts of very quiet with light acoustic guitar strumming, light piano, with Damon providing relaxing dreamlike vocals. Now heres the auditory orgasm at the 2:11 mark. Little Dragon takes over the entire track by with Yukimi Nagano’s voice and electric keyboards until the song sadly fades out. You won’t believe how many times I had this on repeat. In other words: I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG. Fanboy moment over.

Plus check out the Loofslaw Remix of the song if your interested

Glitter Freeze : No vocals here, just more beats and synth for four minutes. Could be a DJ samplers delight for them but I lost interest after the minute mark since it was the same beat repeated. An instant skip.

Some Kind Of Nature : Lou Reed provides the lead vocals with Damon sings the chorus. A reminiscing of "Fire Coming Out of the Monkey's Head" of the Demon Days album, which isn’t a bad thing.

On Melancholy Hill : This song reminds me of all those “so bad but its good” songs from eighties due to the intro but like I said, it’s a guilty pleasure song. Feel good lyrics masked by melancholy themes. A great track.

Broken : I wish I could say much about this track but it reminds me WAY too much of Lil Wayne's godawful “Lollipop” song which I fucking loath. A mediocre at best track that could take a few more listens to fully digest.

Sweepstakes : Mos Def at it again with his mumbling voice he’s known for. A very mellow, chill song.

Plastic Beach : The album’s title track, what’s an album without one? Usually they tend to suck trying to tack on the the none existent theme the album wont follow but this doesn’t disappoint. You get two and I repeat, TWO, punk rock legends from The Clash, Mick Jones & Paul Simonon, playing on this song. Do I need to say anymore? Nonetheless, very groovy song with piano that will makes ones head nod to the beat.

To Binge : A song that will convey images of the carnival by dreamy guitar pluckings. A Sonny and Cher inspired piece between Yukimi Nagano & Damon Albarn. Yukimi’s vocals alone makes this a gem for the ears.

Cloud Of Unknowing : Bobby Womack provides a quiet melancholy vocals backed by Sinfonia ViVA, who also provide the albums intro. A daring bet from going from an upbeat song to a ballad that pays off well.

Pirate Jet : The albums closer starts of with the oh so cozy synthesizers this album has provided throughout along with Damon Albarn giving out some closing lyrics until the songs fades out. A slightly bittersweet ending for this album.

Now...the DVD itself.

I won't say much about since its just snippets of home video of everyone in the studio which provides insight on how and why the album was made. Also induces how the artwork was created, not a photoshop, an actual model of Plastic Beach. Plus theres footage of the recording sessions which sound exactly like the tracks on the album. Thats talent for ya, not Auto-Tuned crap. But nonetheless, I found it to be forgettable and a bit unnecessary since you can see said DVD footage up on YouTube.

In conclusion, this sleeper hit that came out unnoticed at the begging of this year is definite purchase if your into well produced pop music. And if your one those "rap is crap" people, please go fuck yourself, run into a jagged knife through your gut, or throw yourself off a skyscrapper because ignorance is not needed. Open your eyes to all kinds of music, or unless your one of those close minded metal d00ds who still think Metallica kicks ass.

Hell, the album introduced me to Little Dragon which I now love. Music does make the world go round, or least to other competent musicians.

DelinquentAntagonist out…

This has been brought to you by DelinquentAntagonist Productions, A random review, Stimulating your mind without a credit card on the Internet since 2006.

More like a teenage nightmare…

Hold on here, I want to get together enough phlegm and nauseated vomit to place on this album. Katy Perry's third album: Teenage Dream.



I got a hold of this album when my mom told me that my grandma found it on the sidewalk when sweeping outside the house this morning. She ended up giving it to her than to me, to rip it and put it in her iPod.

So nonetheless and by contemplation, thought it would be a good idea to review this and maybe hopefully, many other albums I purchase, receive, and download.

First and foremost, the album is a digipak and I FUCKING hate digipaks. True some bands/performers can get away with them I just hate it when albums just consist of cheap cardboard which will in turn, destroy the artwork with various wear and tear. Fuck your eco-minded biodegradable albums; I didn’t pay 12 bucks for something that’s going to melt away if I spill water on it. But I digress…

Plus the album smells like cotton candy, and not just a little whiff. Its nauseating that gave me headache throughout listening to this album. If this is how Katy smells like on a daily basis. I would say to stop standing near the cotton candy machine for perfume.

Now the fun part…the songs itself…

Teenage Dream : The albums title track, what’s an album without one? I actually had high hopes for this song when I heard her perform it live on David Letterman but all I got was studio mixed fodder with drab robotic vocals.

Last Friday Night [T.G.I.F.] : A rehash of Kesha’s oh so annoying “Tik Tok” with Katy Perry on vocals.

California Gurls (featuring Snoop Dogg) : Automatic skip. I can’t stand this song when it’s played on the radio plus its origins on why it was recored are just downright asinine.

SOURCE by roflrazzi

Who do you call when you want to start a rap war these days? Tupac’s dead. Biggie’s gone. How about Katy Perry? Yes, please. She wrote “California Gurls” as a response to Jay-Z hit, “Empire State of Mind.” Katy Perry said, “I bet Tupac is rolling in his grave” over Jay-Z’s ode to New York. Clearly, she had to represent.

Just a refresher for you of “California Gurls” gangsta vocal stylings: “Hangin’ out, bikinis, zucchinis, martinis, no weenies.” Hmm, zucchinis? And, no weenies? Don’t think Tupac would approve. At all. But cheers for trying, kiddo.

Firework : I still can’t believe I’m still listening to this album. I lost interest in this song after the first minute elapsed. Just skimming trough the rest then fully skipped.

Peacock : As much as Katy tries to defend the song that its about the bird and not about the beef injector every male has in their crotch, the constant double entendres leading to her fascination for a erect phallus destroys her credibility

Plus the sampled drum beat from Toni Basil’s “Mickey” doesn’t help out the song at all. Rather listen to Toni’s one hit wonder than then this piece of rotting crap.

Circle the Drain : Sounded interesting after the first few seconds but just turned into auto-tuned crap. Plus this lyric caught my eye…

You say you have to write your rhymes,
Whatever helps you sleep at night
You've become what you despise,
A stereotype
You think you're so rock and roll,
But you're really just a joke.

Seriously? Whether it’s trying to lash out with her little spat with Lady Gaga or any other person, it’s a failed attempt at it.

The One That Got Away : The opening lyrics struck my eye in disgust:

Summer after high school when
we first met
We make out in you mustang
to Radiohead

I really want to know this. Who the fuck makes out to Radiohead? This coming from someone who has all their albums and Radiohead is NOT make out music. Would you make out to this mans music?



(Obvious joke since this isn’t the best photo of Thom Yorke ((see photo on my page)) and mean no harm to him since I love all his work.) OK Computer, Kid A, Amnesiac, In Rainbows, take your pick out of all their albums. It is not make out music. But hey, if it’s a way to show people who buy this album to competent music. I’m for it. She must think Videotape and All I Need are ultimate make out songs. I could go on and on…

“You would make out to Radiohead.” –my own mother -_-

E.T. : A failed attempted at Katys own hand in trying to emulate a Lady Gaga song. Next.

Who Am I Living For? : To be honest, this is one of the choice cuts that I liked on this flaming turd of an album. Let’s leave it at that.

Pearl : I’m kinda starting to doubt Katy Perry’s research skills when she writes her songs, or at least the marketing executives:

She is a pyramid
But with him she's just a grain of sand
This loves too strong like Mice and Men
Squeezing out the life that should be let in

Considering that I read the book in high school, there really is no love story in Of Mice And Men. Research before you write and make a fool out of yourself or you’ll be another Lil Wayne, saying that you “, break fast like Tom Petty, y'all just petty."

Stay in school kids!

Hummingbird Heartbeat : A pseudo rock number with atrocious lyrics worse than Orianthi’s “According To You.”

Not Like the Movies : At last, the closing track. Once again, a rare choice cut in this album but that’s an understatement. Katy does her best Amy Lee impersonation in this quiet acoustic piece but just falls flat on its face. A small gleaming hope in her vocal abilities and possibility, a musical shift. She could be Ani DiFranco but that’s just sadly a pipedream

I can’t say the other two hidden tracks since the Passion Pits mix of California Gurls is just awful and I love the Passion Pit but the Kaskade Club Remix of Teenage Dream is actually quite listenable. Better than the original.

In concusion, theres better pop albums out there, Teenage Dream isn’t one of them. Lady Gaga’s The Fame Monster, Gorillaz's Plastic Beach, Both Little Dragon’s and La Roux’s self-titled debut albums serve as amazing pop albums.

Plus Katy Perry is famous mainly for looking exactly like a Photoshop of Zooey Deschanel's face on a porn actress's body. She & Him need more followers. Go buy both their albums people! Zooey is a million more times hotter and competent than Katy.

But none the less, tl;dr and for those that did I applaud you for reading my rambling…

For those who gave a crap and wanted to hear my fail sing, heres the video. (uploaded a week ago. I know I'm a lazy bastard.)



Enjoy! I was gonna scrap this video since it was a first take and I sound like crap (sounded better in my head when I sang it a few months ago) but I may revisit this with a better quality video sometime in the future. ^_^

The English language seems to be too difficult some people..

According to literature distributed by the group, it makes more sense for "fruit" to be spelled as "froot," "slow" should be "slo," and "heifer" — a word spelled correctly during the first oral round of the bee Thursday by Texas competitor Ramesh Ghanta — should be "hefer."

The only word that comes to mind for this is "dumbassery." d-u-m-b-a-s-s-e-r-y. Dumbassery.

People are just finding every opportunity they can to bitch at the government. Though, I'm not sure how health care and immigration relates to kids spelling long words, but if "Enough is too much" then somebody's college education screwed them over. Just because you're too fucking stupid to learn how to spell correctly doesn't mean that the words should be changed, it means that you should go back to fucking grade-school.

If it where up to me, I would want both spelling and sentence structure. Text-speak hurts my eyes, and LOL-speak, though funny in context of the pictures, but sucks otherwise. It makes me want to crush people's heads between The Little Brown Handbook and Webster's Unabridged Dictionary.

I've seen people become crying infants over their their choice of IMSpeak when their corrected. God forbid that anybody can spell something without using spell check.

But nonetheless, this is depressing and on a level of stupidity that's almost mythical, but looking back at things, I'm not too surprised. George Orwell warned us of "Newspeak' in 1984. It's "doubleplusungood."

And sadly he makes three...

Ali-Ollie Woodson, lead singer of The Temptations, has died today.

Well, we have the three now in a short period of time: Gary Coleman, Dennis Hopper, and Ali-Ollie Woodson.

Hopefully death will take a nice long summer vacation...after he takes Bieber with him.

"You look like Flash."

Me: Hmm?
Dad: That one drummer...
Me: Flash? *still confused*
Dad: You have on that one hat.
Me: SLASH!! He's a guitarist.
Dad: Same shit.

My dad had the two and two confused. I was wearing my Fedora hat while Slash wears a top hat.

The resemblance is uncanny...hair-wise. :P

Add another one to the chalk board to celebrity musicians I look like. From George Harrison to Slash.

Simon Monjack died yesterday and Paul Gray died today. Simon was the late widow of Brittany Murphy and Paul Gray was the bassist of Slipknot.

Now if you excuse me, I'm gonna go blast the Iowa album in Paul Gray's honor.

When I saw free on that add, I was a bit skeptical since the only bands that give out their songs for free mostly suck, excluding the Nine Inch Nails. Pretty shocked and and amazed to find out that their music are orgasmic to the ears, well for me.

But all in all, seeing that ad a year ago has made me download all of their discography, purchasing one of their band tees, and created a hunger for more of their songs.

Just brought back happy memories when I saw once again while periodically refreshing my MySpace for the hell of it. <3

My all time favorite book in one of my guilty pleasure shows, hehe. South Park remains one of the best examples of "smear everyone" programing around.

...or as many scensters/hipsters/pseudo indie cindy that claim to like a band/musician but only know one song (which I like to call the band tee rule: if you can't name three songs by the band, take off that shirt. Same with claiming to like them. Refer to the band tee rule) know you as: Owl City.

Make "Fireflies" go away. It was an mediocre at best synthpop new wave song but after countless airtime on radio and idiot box exposure has killed you. The same could be applied to MGMT's "Time to Pretend," "Electric Feel," and "Kids." Also with Phoenix's "1901" and "Lisztomania."

Quit while you still have the rest of your life ahead of you or become the ill fated one hit wonder/band that was in Guitar Hero status.

Resident Evil reminded I'm still arachnophobic...

I bought Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles for my little white box today since I happened to walk in at Game Stop when it was having a sale. Best 15 bucks ever spent for a shrink wrapped game, new. :D

Anyways, I spent an hour or so placing a dent in the game progress, happily mowing down zombies with my Perfect Shot gun grip(once again, best 15 bucks spent for both gun grip and game.)

And there it was...

One. Big. Ass. Motherfucking spider dropped out of nowhere. Instead of conserving ammo with my handgun, I unload countless lead into the monstrosity. Big mistake.

More drop down, anxiety and adrenaline increasing, just unloading, looking away in fire as I fire blindly at the screen, not caring for an accurate shot, hoping that the spiders are dead.

Then I'm stuck in a room with even two bigger spiders. Be right back, fainting and the bloods gone from my face.

FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKK!!!

My little sister Diana had decided to play a prank on me by slowly moving her fingers on my shoulder, mimicking a spiders movement. See above word in bold for my reaction.

My fathers food for thought: Never tell anyone your scared of something.

Be right back, gonna get a baseball bat to sleep with tonight. I'm gonna have nightmares tonight. Damn my near-death level of arachnophobia, also my trypanophobia. :P



The House of the Dead: Overkill, you are now replaced with Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles to pump adrenaline now.

We used to write dirty limericks and other things on the desks in study hall without being taken in handcuffs.

A 12-year-old girl doodles on her desk and gets taken away in handcuffs.

Giving her detention or something seems reasonable... but the police? Seriously?

But nonetheless, this needs not to be wasted on. It insists upon itself.

Pedophilia...

sure does have a way to get into music.



Heard this on the radio while channel surfing, thinking how did this pass by but then again we have this...



May I say anything more?

Plus this, and this.

Who knew? Who else knows songs for the pedos? D:

"Something must be wrong with you." >:D

So I'm hanging out with my former art teacher during lunch having a water cooler discussion on films with another film buff. My teacher mentions that Avatar is the highest-grossing film of all time‎, beating Titanic, and I say that I didn't really care much for it. Highly overrated if you ask me(rant complaint review coming soon whenever I damn well feel like it.)

That's when the the other guy tells me what I placed for the subject. My art teacher tells him he has no right since he didn't like any other classics we both loved. I mentioned he didn't like Watchmen...he just stayed quiet for the rest of the discussion.

PWNED!!! ^_^

As in before, your own opinion and whatnot.

Jerome David Salinger

Jerome David "J. D." Salinger: January 1, 1919 – January 27, 2010



J.D. Salinger, the famously reclusive author whose 1951 novel, "The Catcher in the Rye," became a touchstone for generations of readers, has died. He was 91.

The author died Wednesday of natural causes at his home in New Hampshire, according to a family statement that his literary agent, Phyllis Westberg, provided Thursday.

"Despite having broken his hip in May, his health had been excellent until a rather sudden decline after the new year," the statement said. "He was not in any pain before or at the time of his death."

Salinger has long been known for his reclusiveness, and "in keeping with his life long, uncompromising desire to protect and defend his privacy there will be no service," the statement said.

"The family asks that people's respect for him, his work, and his privacy be extended to them, individually and collectively, during this time."

Though he wrote more than 30 short stories and a handful of novellas -- many published in The New Yorker and collected in works such as "Nine Stories" and "Seymour: An Introduction" -- Salinger's fame rests on "Catcher," his only novel.

The book is narrated by a teenage boy, Holden Caulfield, who is expelled from a private school, Pencey Prep, in Pennsylvania, and spends the next three days wandering around New York. Caulfield is mistrustful of authority, railing against corrupt adults and "phonies," and plans to decamp for the west.

"Salinger had remarked that he was in this world but not of it. His body is gone but the family hopes that he is still with those he loves, whether they are religious or historical figures, personal friends or fictional characters," the statement said.

"He will be missed by the few he was close to every bit as much as by the readers who loved reading him."

My English teacher had told me he died as soon as I walked in into her class with a gasp reply, "He's dead?!" Shocked at hearing it. J. D. Salinger...now dead. It hit me like a ton of bricks. A man whom I have never met and I feel sadness. The voice of many generations...now gone. Know I how how people felt when John Lennon and Kurt Cobain died.

A hero in his own right to the underground followers he had, me being one of them. And the bullshit thing most people do when famous people die: They become bandwagon fans. I loved this mans work, when I first picked up The Catcher in the Rye at the age of thirteen, barely understanding, I knew it was special. Even rereading it countless times, it still gets to me. Even started reading his other work which is fantastic. From the angst ridden voice of a seventeen year old, he spoke for a universal generation, whether it be the time it was published in 1951 or modern times, he will still continue to voice out many generations to come. Kinda like angst ridden version of the Beatles(Nirvana?), somewhat.

Plus another death, Howard Zinn: August 24, 1922 – January 27, 2010.

So if the theory of bad things coming in three's lets just hope Stephenie Meyer is next. We lose two great writers we need compensation by taking out a bad one, seems fair.

But what will really bummed me out is now that Salinger is dead...the most ironic thing will come to pass. A film adaption of The Catcher in the Rye will most likely be in the works. Since Holden loathes movies, wouldn't be pretty smart to have such a thing. I cringe at the thought of it. Salinger was the armor and now its gone. Life is gonna suck without him.

Now to leave a quote that fits the situation...

The boy himself is at once too simple and too complex for us to make any final comment about him or his story. Perhaps the safest thing we can say about Holden is that he was born in the world not just strongly attracted to beauty but, almost, hopelessly impaled on it.

You'll be missed by both family/friends and the the people who enjoyed reading your work.
