One of my favorite lines in 30 Rock, a show full of one-liners, is uttered by Jack Donaghy, Alec Baldwin’s character: I’m the Sisyphus of Reaganing. Reaganing, in the show, is where you have a day where you make no mistakes. It’s the “perfect…
I’ve been playing the drums regularly since I was about 14 (on and off before that). I always thought the drummers were cool. It’s a fun instrument. And as a drummer, my most crucial job is to keep the beat. Ringo Starr (drummer for…
