Yes....this is a drog. A drunken mog. But I think the pressures of being the 'mogger of the week' may have finally gotten to me! I long for the days when I could just walk down the street and just sort of blend into the sea of humanity.

Artist Of The Day: William FitzsimmonsWilliam Fitzsimmons is one of the oddest people you will ever meet. Born the youngest child of two blind parents, William was raised in the outskirts of the steel city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Due to the family’s inability to communicate through normal visual means, William’s childhood home was filled with [...]

William Fitzsimmons goes through the gamut of emotions on his new album - forgiveness, loss, optimism - but it still cannot save the effort from a terminal dullness.
