Not too bad for a thirty one song album, but tracks like “Hot Rod Monkeyâ€? are detrimental to the over all quality of the album. Some tracks sound like they were stolen from the Chuck E.

Diff'rent strokes to rule the world, hmmm. But to change gears, is there any greater gift to intelligent comic connosieurs (read: dorks) than Tim Kreider? The funny and the smart trip so lightly off his tongue (and, I assume, onto his keyboard). His capacity for justified offense is unparalleled. Man-crush readily admitted.
