Oh great! Now I'm all bothered again! LOL! j/k His show here was sold out so I didn't get to see him! Is that a recent picture Ms. Lucky Pants???? You two make a good couple! :) And your hair is getting LONG! :) I'd end up killing him at one point - but man he's good looking! :)
I'm saving the picture to my computer...not just for Henry but so that I have one of you too! :) Thanks!

"A short audio clip of punk-rock icon Henry Rollins giving a verbal lashing to a writer from Maxim magazine — which is frequently accused of objectification of women — has been posted online at Blender.com.
Rollins recently made headlines after he was placed under investigation by the Australian government when he was spotted reading Ahmed Rashid's bestselling book "Jihad: The Rise of Militant Islam in Central Asia" on a flight to Brisbane, Australia. According to Starpulse.com, the former BLACK FLAG frontman, 45, was horrified when he received an e-mail from an Australian government associate after an ignorant passenger reported the singer/actor's reading material.
Rollins told PageSix.com, "Days later I received an e-mail from a woman who I guess figured out who I was and found me. I had been named a 'person of interest.' Basically, they get calls like this every five minutes, and I'm probably on the 'who cares' list, in that they'll probably let me into the country again. But the fact that this guy could be that ignorant and call me in on this for a book. I was angry. Because of the fact that the guy wouldn't confront me. I like confrontation. If I've offended you, let me know. Don't call it in and not leave your name. I just think it's pretty weak."
Rollins was especially baffled by his status amongst Australian immigration officials because of his past track record working with U.S. soldiers. He explained, "I do a lot of work for the USO because soldiers are my heroes. I've done six USO tours outside of America and a few hospital visits, and the soldiers are the best. I've been to Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Dubai, South Korea, Honduras, Japan, Egypt and Turkey." "

Henry spoke about the incident at the show, and also wrote about it on his site. This was his response to the email he received:
“I was reading a book called Jihad by Ahmed Rashid which is a history of Central Asia. I didn't speak to the man next to me past how do you do. I think Ahmed Rashid is published by Yale University Press. Bush's alma mater. Please tell your government and everyone in your office to go fuck themselves. Tell them twice. If your boss is looking for something to do, you can tell him I suggest he go fuck himself. Baghdad's safer than my hometown and your PM is a sissy. You have a nice night.”
You gotta love Henry :)

HENRY ROLLINS Finds New Ways To Channel His Anger
The Associated Press is reporting that veteran rocker Henry Rollins says he still harbors the anger of his punk roots but has found new ways to channel it off stage.
"My anger is more civically rooted," Rollins, 45, told The Associated Press Sunday (March 12) in an interview at the South by Southwest Interactive festival. "To be an American without some anger, you're sleeping on the job."
A vocal critic of the Bush administration and the Iraq war, Rollins said he supports the troops, and he has met many while touring with the USO, the private organization that entertains U.S. troops overseas.
"These people are incredibly human. They're like, 'I have a job to do sir and I really miss my wife,' and that's when it becomes very personal," he said.
The former BLACK FLAG frontman now hosts his own film-focused television show on the Independent Film Channel, aptly called "The Henry Rollins Show". He also hosts a radio show in Los Angeles.
He's not so sure music has the power to change the world anymore.
"What does change things is people voting," he told The Associated Press.

Did you see The Daily Show when Jimmy Carter was on. He said he believed the Democrats won the first election against Bush. He then said the second time around the feel was people voted for Bush because, the country was/is at war and they seemed to go with the leader and chief ideal because of it.
I always really liked Jimmy Carter.

Thanks Laurie! Glad you're here!
I do know about his show, he's been writing about it on his site. Should be interesting. He presented an award at the Indy Spirit awards the night before the Oscars too. So of course I watched that show, instead of the Oscars.
