I've decided to post some guitar songs on here. I already post one short story per month, I figure since I play me some geetar, mize well share. My playing is almost as bad as my writing, but hey, it's free, so sit on it! This one I call "Amber Flyse".
Just click to play. (Sorry the quality isn't the best, blogger restricts bandwidth for movies).
Thanks for listening!

The Liber Review: How to make Enemies and Alienate People by Toby Young
Toby Young’s memoir of a Briton failing to climb the social ladder of the NYC “glossy posse” is full of great pie-faced hi jinks. For a book brimming with humor and ironic witticism, the book makes a pretty poignant, pointed statement of American social structure and the inaccessibility of the “American Dream”.
The tale spun here is a pretty much the typical thread of woe and failure we hear so much of these days. The narrator spends the bulk of his time in self-debasing ridicule, thereby lending some perverse measure of (self-imposed) credence to its author when he throws his wrench of rebuke into the gears of the American social machine: We are all just post-modern versions of Melville’s Ishmael. Outcasts, trodden, huddled masses. You get the picture.
