Welcome, sloots, to another edition of The Peckerwood Book Club, today with a vital question: do you judge a book by its page count? I'll admit that I do on occasion, much as I might judge a book by its cover art. For instance, I wouldn't be caught dead at a cafe reading this , since the cartoony cover makes it look like a twee book for halfwitted knobs (I haven't read it and likely won't, but that's besides the point). Similarly, if I find out that a novel is over 350 pages, I pause, just like I do when I learn that it's under 200.   Of course, this makes no sense at all. A novel shouldn't be judged as if you're ordering up piles of lumber or piping or bolts of fabric. The length is irrelevant, as I've learned from some terrific long-ish books, such as "Madam: The Biography of Polly Adler," which is over 500 pages, and  "Of Mice and Men," which clocks in at a supermodel-slender 107 pages.  Do you ever think twice about reading ...

 It’s the Sunday Roast, and today it’s four times throbbier than normal! Not that we’re ever normal around these parts. These parts right here… Where was I? Oh, right! Throbbing. In the 60’s you had The Monkees (who were musically under-rated IMHO). In the 80’s you had Milli Vanilli, who were at least stunning to look at. And in 2026, we have BoyThrob, which may actually be nothing more than a four-headed practical joke. Yes, in These Trying Times™ even manufactured bands have evolved. Morphed. Mutated.  These pleasant-looking lads come to you from the hellmouth known as TikTok, where they have gone viral, more for their backstory than for their music (which is pleasant enough, I guess). For four part harmony you need, yes, four people. And BoyThrob IS four people, but there’s a problem. Three of them are American:  Anthony Key, Evan Papier, and Zachary Sobania.  One of them,  Darshan Magdum,   is Indian. And trying to bring him to the US to perform with hi...

Credit: Heart US-UK on facebook Country singer Kacey Musgraves certainly kicked off her Middle of Nowhere tour with a bang! Here she is performing her song "Dry Spell" from a set of disco testicles. How cryptic! I wonder what will happen to these balls after the tour. They would make a lovely conversation piece in someone's home. Or they could be repurposed as the world's largest truck nuts!

I've got my new Chevy Corvair fully stocked with Fresca on ice, Nabisco Vanilla Wafers and my famous ambrosia salad in a Tupperware! Oh shoot, I gotta turn up the radio, that new song by Del Shannon just came on! So let's hit the open road, possibly drive to the beach to have a torch-lit luau this evening, or maybe stop for a picnic in the country under a weeping willow. Heck, we can go wherever we want! And wherever we decide to go, we can laugh and chat and talk about whatever we feel like, just like it's Open Post or something!
