Yup.  I sometimes feel a bit strange driving around town with either that
album or a good chunk of my CDs going and the windows rolled down then
pulling up next to someone who really has the bass cranked on something. 
but I sit here and realize that most of these people are listening to Match
Box 20, so i shouldnt feel bad, right?  At least I'm not trying to pull off
the faux black thing like Jenny Jones and Ricki Lake:

"Hello.  Today we have guests who are not all that.  Their friends are here
to inform them they are Hoochie Mamas.  Please give it up for Stephanie!"

I know I don't get it, and I do a service to the community by not trying to
do it.

Sincerely,

Suzanne "Goth Queen" Schroeder
