I just got out of a drug store in Burbank. I was wearing my Nirvana tee-shirt, which I bought last week when I visited Seattle. As I was standing at a cash register a guy who was working a cash register 20 yards away actually shouted this out to me:
"Hey, Nirvana! I know them. Good band."
I wanted to say, "Are you familiar with the Beatles, too?"
He continued: "They made good songs."
.....Um, yeah.
Then... and I shit you not...
"The lead singer killed himself."
I wanted to say, "Hey, man-- you're Mr. Information. Do you know what happened to John Lennon? I've forgotten."
