This NOFX video goes way the f*ck back, to the era of the mid-Nineties, when I was young and had a circle of friends who all dyed their hair but rarely washed it. It was on a Fat Wreck Chords video sampler, and the sampler had this and "Stickin' in My Eye" on it, as well as some other great stuff from bands like Lagwagon and Pennywise. The video reminds me of the olden days of yore, and you have to love the way the skacore breakdown gives the middle of the song a kind of easygoing, friendly vibe, right before shoving a size-twelve Doc Marten boot up your ass.
Fat Mike (the singer) ended his career wearing a skirt, heavy boots, and sporting a mohawk fin that made him look, vaguely, like he should be standing at the foot of a cross, holding a spear. Bob, it has been claimed by a SubGenius or two, may be the LIVING AVATARA OF JEHOVA ONE.
(Somehow this mystery all fits together.)

Eight is Enough
Here is another old television show that I watched in the late seventies and early eighties. It is entitled 'Eight is Enough' that is all about a family of eight children and the ups and downs of living at the time in history of inflation, the Gas Crisis, and various other personal and professional issues that affected us all at this time. The program starred Dick van Patten and Diana Hyland then Betty Buckley and a cast of characters of the children from Grant Goodeve, Willie Ammes, Adam Rich and others. To me this was an updated version of 'The Waltons' where the children all had a particular talent from writing, medicine, business, the arts, etc. I guess that was to be expected for 'Eight is Enough' was produced by the same company as 'The Waltons' for even Will Geer who played Grandpa on 'The Walton's played a character on 'Eight is Enough'. Watching these old or somewhat old and maybe outdated shows are still fun to watch and remember what you were doing at that time in history. By the way I have the Roku channel that allows me to watch some of my old favorite television shows from a bygone era.

3 Mistakes You Are Making In Your Novel That Are Boring Your Reader
The last thing you want a reader to be when experiencing the world of your novel is to be bored to tears. This leads to them either returning your book for their money back, placing it on the shelf never being touched again, or it being donated so that maybe someone else will find enjoyment in it.
