09/23/2005: "McKormick is My Hero"
I can't explain exactly why, but McKormick Astley is my hero. To quote a friend... "I like the cut of his jib." Every conversation I've had with him (via e-mail), almost every blog post, and every one of his podcasts gives me the "I'm not alone in the world, there are others similar to me" feeling, and not because the details of our lives are that similar, but more along the lines "I think similarly." Perhaps it's the whole "misery loves company" thing, but whatever.
While I've generally had my head in the sand in regards to podcasting lately, I'm still listenin' to McKormick's "As Evidence That I Exist, WHYME: Worst Music You've Ever Heard, and Super-Dave Slusher's Evil Genius Chronicles (I seed 'em on Bittorrent AND I wear my t-shirt regularly). Of the three, McKormick's is the most personally resonant.
I'd have listed Illinoise! too, but a) their t-shirt is white, b) I just can't get over the fact that Janet made Pete throw out his Playstation, and c) they've gone the way of the TrippOdd podcast... they're missing in action. Yeah, that's right... leave it to me to lead by example.
