If you're like me, May 4 is a big deal. Yeah, it's some sort of Star Wars day, but it's also the day when Jawbreaker nerds such as myself celebrate the band.

This story also marks the first time a reader tracked me down via Facebook to tell me they liked what I wrote. So thanks!

JIM NOWELL INTERVIEW IN OC WEEKLY
It's never easy asking a man to talk about his deceased son, but Jim Nowell is a strong man, which made this interview informative without being overly emotional.
Big thanks to Mr. Nowell for letting me into his home and talking to me about an obviously very difficult subject.

Q&A WITH MILO AUKERMAN IN OC WEEKLY
It might seem like I've spoken to Milo Aukerman from the Descendents a lot. The truth is, this here Q&A is just stuff I didn't use in the story I wrote about the Descendents playing in Long Beach.

ROAD TRIP SOUNDTRACK RECOMMENDATIONS IN OC WEEKLY
I just got back from driving a 12-passenger van (with a trailer) from New York City to Long Beach. Let's just say, I followed my own advice and listened to lots of this stuff.
Let's also say that anyone towing a trailer should not ever go to Manhattan. Unless looking for parking for almost three hours sounds like fun. Then they should totally do it.
