YEEAGGGGGHHHH!!

One of my favorite bookstores in DC is having a Dean Scream contest this weekend. Pay 5 bucks, scream your lungs out and the proceeds go to a good cause, the Kristen Carr Memorial Fund.

A little background: Kristen Carr's mother is Barbara Carr, who is Springsteen's road manager and a good friend of my buddy Bill Marcus, with whom I followed The Boss around the Midwest on his 1999 reunion tour. Had dinner with her one night in Chicago, truly a remarkable woman.

I'll say this about the new DNC head--he's got the passion and the gumption to make something happen. He has the peasants with pitchforks mentality which Hollywood Terry McAuliffe so sorely lacked. More power to him for at least trying to put the party of the working class back into their hands, instead of the hands of Babs Streisand and Michael Moore.
