Just because I don’t leave my house, doesn’t mean drama escapes me. This week’s show is a throwback to Hate the Radio. It’s a more personal recording in the vain of POMP sessions. I don’t plan on doing these very often, but from time-to-time I will release them as I deem appropriate.

In this show I share two stories with Alan Lock, one about a home invasion in Colorado that my wife was involved in, and the other one is something I have never talked about publicly. I have close friends and family I’ve never even shared this story with.

So sit back, and try to enjoy a 32 minute confessional I call POMP’s Afterlife – What’s Up?

As promised, I have a brand new offering to the Internets. Avery Fantom joins me once again to discuss love, homosexuality, and dog training — all with a sense of humility that is uniquely his. POMP’s Afterlife – Fantom Menace is a 41 minute (one-sided) conversation, that is typical of the drunken late night calls I regularly receive. It also features a slightly tweaked intro and two new Deep Tweets.

Music:

Brad Sucks – Total Breakdown

This is my final test record, and yet the audio quality is much improved over the previous Skype shows. I’ll be back in the New Year with brand new shows, recorded with brand new equipment. I will sound so goddamn good, you’ll swear I’m following you around the house with a microphone. Oh, and if you define “borked” as totally fucking something up, usually by doing something stupid. Then that is exactly what I did to my iTunes feed. But, it’s fixed now … so Subscribe away!

Fuck You Colorado!

April 17th, 2007 by POMP

Thank you Cho Seung-Hui of Virginia. Finally, the hippies in Colorado can shut the fuck up. How’s it feel to be number two shit-heads?

The media is trying to blame this latest school shooting on violent video games, but they reported the gunman was dressed like a Boy Scout.

Now how’s this for an incoherent thought?

The Boy Scouts of America is a religious organization who prohibits atheists, agnostics, and homo’s from joining. So maybe it’s God we should blame? The only thing the BSA and I seem to agree on is the exclusion of women from leadership positions.

I read Stephen King’s “Rage” right around the time Jack Thompson started suing people for having fun. It was years later that I first played Grand Theft Auto, and my character was dressed like a Pimp. Maybe we should go after creepy looking authors? Then again, the Virginia Tech shooter was South Korean, so maybe racism is the real culprit, and maybe we should fire more elderly shock jocks instead?

Or maybe it’s time we start going after anyone who speaks freely, and dares to use adjectives? After all, the gunman was described as a “sullen loner.” How come people always seem to recognize these personality traits after something horrible happens, but never before?

I dunno, I guess what I’m trying to say is: When is T-Shirt Hell going to update their School Shootings Tour shirt? And when are the creators of Columbine Paintball gonna allow us to re-live the Virginia Tech experience for ourselves?
