I heard you on the wireless back in ’52–or alternatively, on the cable TV while babysitting for the neighbors back in in ’82. Either way, I’m now allowed to tell you about the big project I’ve been keeping secret for the last few months: I am working on a book with Nina Blackwood, Mark Goodman, Alan Hunter, and Martha Quinn. Yes, the original MTV VJs. (Sadly, J.J. Jackson died in 2004.) They’re excellent people who went on a crazy ride in the ’80s, and I think the book (scheduled for 2013) is going to be awesome. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some Eddie Money videos to catch up on. (He played a vampire? Really?)
