now THAT'S dedication...

A crewman for Bigger Than Jesus who shall remain nameless (unless he wants to 'fess up to it) recently had some custom checks made for his checking account...



He sent us the following message:

That's right, every time we pay our bills, The Man will have to look at BTJ. Every time we buy groceries, The Man will see you. Every time we pass a bad check for some crap from Craigslist, they'll look at you and think, "Those fuckers fucked me, but hey, isn't that Rick Emerson?"

Feel my wrath, check-takers!!!!!!!!!!

BTJ Global Domination:1
The Man:0

little dreams coming true...

two things to cross off my "to do" list for this life...

a listing on imdb.com

an entry in Wikipedia

(without having to do either myself)

also recently crossed off the list... have press release written about me in another language.

(Google translastion: "The Nicodemus Americans have entrusted to the estimated independent director Joni DeRouchie the recording of a video of long duration, relative to the Next trace in Nocturne, draft from the last album Vanity is to Virtue")

ah life is good!

now if only wil wheaton would answer my emails, i could really die happy...
