Found it:

She's as beautiful as a foot
She's as beautiful as a foot
She heard somebody say, the other day

Didn't believe it when he bit into her face
Didn't believe it when he bit into her face
It tasted just like a fallen arch

She's as beautiful as a foot
She's as beautiful as a foot

I'm still confused. Does Creepy Internet Stalker Guy want to bite me
in the face? Are his arches fallen? I don't know.

I think CISG and I should just meet in person. If he follows me
around like a puppy dog like he does here, we'll have our answer.

Thanks for admitting your ignorance Mr. Phillips and thanks for flushing your
audio credentials down the toilet, Mr. Phillips. LoT"s. Perhaps I can send you a
few $1,000 checks to clean yourself up with, Mr. Phillips.

But, seriously, I'm surprised you're not familiar with BOC's S/T album and
following one "Tyranny and Mutation" which MoFi combined into one gold CD around
the time they went out of business before being resuscitated by Music Direct.

Speaking of MoFi, I did download and skim over the current issue of your
magazine.

Nice looking professional cover, for sure, but a rap artist on the cover?
Perhaps it is what the kids are listening to these days and you're trying to
draw in a larger audience, but hip-hop seems incongruous with audiophile to say
the least. Also, nice looking four-page table of contents layout with
good-looking pictures of components being reviewed. Plenty of top-flight
advertisers indicate a successful, long-running magazine.

Then we get to "The Vinyl Anachronist" column and I know you said not to read
your material and I probably shouldn't have because, sorry to say, it was
atrocious. The words "I" or "my" or both interspersed in practically every other
sentence makes the writer seem an insufferable, egotistical braggart. It may
have imparted some useful or insightful information but I couldn't get past all
those "I's and "my"s. I'm surprised you or others didn't notice that and correct
it, for it doesn't speak highly of quality control there.

Next was the rap artist interview, which I scrolled by as I have no interest in
hip-hop music. The Club Mix column reviewing Byrne & Eno's new collobaration was
slightly interesting - I didn't read the others.

The next article was a delight. A full-page picture of Lindsey Buckingham
performing with just enough writing to make for an interesting read. Same for
the following ones, which I didn't read, but nice large pictures of them
performing was appealing to look at, especially the Todd Rundgren one (which I
did read) as it brought back old memories of rocking out to the "Utopia" album
with the trippy album cover that had the song by same name with the grungy
guitar riff that's similar to the one on Neil Young & Crazy Horse's "Hey, Hey
My, My."

The Current Releases reviews would do well to have a rating system like TAS
uses.

I was glad to see there was an Audiophile Recordings section. The Frank Sinatra
"Nice and Easy" on MoFi looks like something I definitely want to buy.. I'm glad
Acoustic Sounds and others are still making SACDs (because I have an expensive
player I bought a few years ago) but I was a little miffed Dorgay didn't compare
the Sonny Rollings "Saxophone Colussus" SACD to the DCC gold CD from some years
ago.

Skipped past the classical stuff so I could get to what I was really interested
in - the visit to MoFi, which, alas, turned out to be disappointing. I was
expecting to read about the high-fidelity equipment, painstaking recording
processes and the inner workings of making albums, CDs and SACDs but instead
there's a half-page of (excuse the word) sophomoric nostalgia and another
half-page of fluff before going on to a lengthy interview with the mastering
engineer. The questions read like what a college journalist student would
prepare ahead of time for an interview, but the important ones were never asked,
namely, "What have you got completed and in the can and ready to soon be
released? What are you currently working on or what prospects have you got lined
up that you can tell us about? What are you doing to advance the
state-of-the-art in your future recordings?" Also, why would you use that goofy
picture of - I guess it's Shawn as there's no caption, another mistake - laying
on the ground pointing a lit flashlight at the photographer. Why not a picture
of the crown jewel piece of equipment made for them by Tim deParavicini or a
photo layout of the various equipment they use?

Well, that's about it, nice pictures of Jaguars and B&W speakers for them and
fancy looking pens.

I'll try and read the equipment reviews later.

Patti Smith was probably too New York for the young Boon. I was
listening to the LA stuff...Minutemen, Meat Puppets, Black Flag. It's
like my friend from Wisconsin--"You never listened to Todd Rundgren

Thanks for your feedback. You bring up a few valid points. Here are
my comments:

Chuck D is far more than a rap artist, not that I'd expect much more
from someone who still lionizes BOC. We're a music AND audio
magazine, with a growing emphasis on music. Our rap coverage is one
of our more popular features.

Columns are usually made up of personal observations, therefore there
are generally more "my and I"s.

Thanks for the comments on the photography. That's where I feel that
we stand head-and-shoulders above everyone else. Jeff Dorgay has been
one of the leading commercial photographers in the industry for 25
years.

Rating systems for music are a little silly. It's too subjective. The
better music reviewers refrain from ascribing scores to performances,
and they thoroughly describe the music and use points of reference so
that the reader can determine for themselves if the recording is
worthwhile.

The MoFi article was wildly popular and generated an avalanche of
positive feedback. You may be the first of our 150,000 readers to
complain. Rob LoVerde and Shawn Britton thought it was the best piece
ever on MoFi.

Finally, bringing up TAS as some sort of publishing industry standard
is very amusing to me. I won't tell you why, but it's very
interesting.

Thanks again for reading.

One suspects that writing about ones thoughts and experiences whilst
avoiding the use of the first person form would lead one to adopt a
rather stilted writing style. Does one not agree?

LOL!

I have to give Creepy Internet Stalker Guy some credit because I
recently looked at an article of mine and thought the same thing. But
then again, I read some columns today from other people and it was
full of the same. An equipment review can easily be the same
thing...I tried this, I used that, I heard the following... It's the
nature of the beast.

He almost has a valid point, but at the same time we knew that he
would be unable to say, "Hey Marc, I really liked your column."
Insufferable, egotistical braggarts such as CISG are unable to step
aside from their own prejudices and remain objective in these cases.

Judging by Cream magazine, at that time Detroit (and New York) didn't
get West Coast stuff either. It's a long way from rock with r and b
roots to hardcore.

There was some crossover. My hardcore friends liked Johnny Thunders.

I remember that tour back in Chicago. It was kind of funny in a way.

Foghat was the headline band and BOC was the main backup band. and BOC
convincingly outperformed Foghat (everybody in the crowd thought so.)

Next time around at the same place BOC - as the headline band - were themselves
outperformed by a then-unknown backup band named Aerosmith.

Next time around at the same place Aerosmith - as the headline band - too were
outperformed by a then-unknown backup band named Van Halen.

Next time around ... Van Halen was too big to play at the Aragon Ballroom, which
had a capacity of 5,000.

Are you Royalty?

I remember seeing an interview with Prince Charles once. The
interviewer asked when it was that PC noticed he was treated
differently. He said, "One notices that others are very interested in
one."

In absurd comments, one has no difficulty.

Hey, simpleton, here's an easy one for you: describe your likes and
dislikes about your current stereo system without using "my", "me" or
"I".

He reminds me of former Oakland tight end Todd Christensen (sp?) who
was somehow involved with the NFLPA. He would also bandy about large
words to show how 'intelligent' he was. I remember him debating Joe
Robbie (owner of the Dolphins) about football salaries. Robbie said
(approximately), "I don't think the average worker, the bulldozer
operator or the hod carrier, understands why you guys are upset at
"only" making a $400,000 year minimum." The word "hod" totally threw
Christensen for a loop. I was LMAO.

There you go again, speaking in the first person. Sugar will never
understand you. Let me help:

"That is a ludicrous, inappropriate, immature and incorrect sentence
that you have ascribed to my concise and scintillating scriptural
statement. One of those currently engaged in written discourse
currently possesses numerical data which shows advocacy, and indeed
mightily potent support of, that individual's expressed position; the
other individual merely gusts fecal matter out of one's exhaust
ductwork. It is not the case that both positions are correct. It is
either the case that the individual with the numerical-data-supported
position is correct, or that the individual whose position is
"supported" by forcefully-ejected secondhand sustenance through rectal
fissures is correct. It is therefore not likely, probable or even
possible that both positions can enjoy the certitude of a positive and
accurate outcome to the declarations heretofore mentioned."

Sugar would get all disgusted at the overuse of "I" and "your" and
stop reading. LOL!

The Dec. 2008 Issue 188 of TAS on page 149 "Statement of Ownership, Management
and Circulation" states a 12-month monthly average 'Total Distribution' of
39,490.

You've claimed a figure of 150,000. Prove it ... and not through some
fraud-riddled click mechanism, but something far more conclusive.

TAS is way down on Alexa's ranking at roughly 25,000,000 compared to TONE Audio
at 15,000,000.
http://www.alexa.com/data/details/main/theabsolutesound.com

No, it's not. You want me to supply you, an anonymous Internet geek,

company that does that. You think it's a "transparently hollow

What "magic" URL do you think exists to supply this information? It's
a PDF document that gets downloaded, not a website that records hits.
We possess the information. We send it out to prospective
advertisers. If you want to see those numbers, then you ask us to

I'm really not sure why you're not getting this, other than the fact
that you just don't want to admit that you're in over your head, or

Then why did you state something on rao that you're unwilling to substantiate on
rao? If you're going to brag about something, then don't throw a temper tantrum
when asked to provide proof.

I stated a fact. You challenged that fact. I told you how to get the
information. You called me a liar. I was willing to send you the
information. You thought it would be smarter to remain anonymous so
you could randomly attack people without fear of repercussion, and so
you said no. That's the life you have chosen. I can't do anything
about it.

Not everything in the world has a URL attached to it. You look like a
moron right now.

Hmmm..let's see...you claimed that I was peddling old columns to JA,
and that I was divorced and had abandoned my children. You haven't
publicly substantiated any of that. To top it off, you're attacking
gays and women on this forum. Tell me again about this "credibility"
concept of yours. I'm not sure if it matches mine.

I had merely asked whether you'd ever been published by TAS or Stereophile, so
your preceding statement is fictitious.

> and that I was divorced and had abandoned my children.

You may be mistaking with Arny on that; I derisively speculated your ex-wife
stayed in Southern California with custody of any children after the divorce
mentioned on your MySpace page, which did bring up an intriguing point when you
offered to send pictures of them taken by cell phone to Arny complete with their
school IDs: it sounds as though you have custody of them even though the mothers
seem to automatically be granted custody. So, did your ex-wife not want custody
of them or did divorce proceedings rule her to be an unfit mother?

You're the one who stills needs to prove your claim of 150,000 readers or
subscribers. Until you can do that, working yourself up into a frenzied lather
won't restore your diminishing credibility.

There are no audited figures that allow substantiation or rejection of

****R, let's see your proof that your persona can say anything that comes

I don't think you're getting the business aspect of this. Perhaps
that's why pcabx.com no longer exists...you simply have no business
sense.

CISG can have the information as soon as he supplies the same
information we request of every other person. I have not, however,
made any offer to you. You don't have the money to be a viable
business partner.

Well, then you have to talk with someone other than me. The contact
information is on our website. CISG, however, will get a personal
delivery when he supplies the information.

But since you have lied about me and my family as well, I'll make sure
you don't get the information either. You might want to consider a
third party.

Not at all. I wasn't bragging about anything. I was answering CISG's
lies about me. I had no intention of bringing any of this up. I was
more interested in pointing out that CISG was making up stuff out of
thin air.

First, you need to supply proof that I abandoned my children and that
I'm divorced. Once you admit that you've been lying about me, we can
work this out.

No Marc, you made the claim here, its up to you to back it up here. This is
just like every other critical claim you've ever made, 100% assertion, 0%
proof.

Of course Marc, I'm foolish to ask you for proof, since you have already

You posted on the web that you are divorced again. Don't you know where?

You also posted that you changed your residence, or don't you know where you
did that?

OK, so I presumed that given how generally incompetent you are, your wife
got custody of the kids.

You might have joint custody or you might be lying, which is what you

Marc, I asked for proof first, so its up to you to show good faith. You've
been asked for proof about your magazine's stats by others, so you are
responsible to more than me for that.

BTW, I'm not holding my breath Marc, because after all you are a proven
habitual liar, you even lied twice just today.
