They call me gonzo because I have an unhealthy fondness for The Muppets. I really enjoy snorkeling, decoupage, extreme ironing and blogging. If I had to sum my life in a single word, it would be: "breathtaking." Beneath my hard exterior lies the heart of a monk and the soul of a hummingbird. This bio was written by Woody, the company digital guy, who is, as you read this, being set on fire by Gonzo, who is not amused by this nonsense.

The Rival Sons. Rock. That is All [VIDEOS]
Rival Sons. It's no secret. I love this f***ing band! It boggles my mind, with four albums down (and one on the way), that these guys aren't headlining arenas in the U.S. Not unheard of, I guess. A band that gets no - or minimal - respect on one side of the pond, can be huge on the other side...

Is the World Ready for a GWAR Themed Restaurant? [VIDEO]
"Our special today is Oderus Urungus asparagus. And may I suggest a BalSac sazarac to complement it?"

Crucified Barbara releases New Video for “To Kill a Man” [VIDEO]
O.K. We admit it. We LOVE Crucified Barbara here in Office 420 at the 99X Rock Ranch. What's not to love about four Swedish chicks that rock balls and look pretty damn good doing it. We've been known to hang out here after hours sipping Mac 12 and watching their videos into the wee hours...
Emp TV Cribs: Stormtrooper Edition [VIDEO]
It was only a matter of time before MTV ran out of rappers, rock stars, and Jackasses. Eventually, they were going to have to find other 'cribs' to invade.

New! From Ronco! It’s Rape Glasses! Sick and Yet Amusing [VIDEO – NSFW, MAYBE]
You have no idea how difficult this job is. Hours a day pouring over website after website looking for something to amuse and entertain...myself. Then talking on the radio for a couple of hours. Then lunch. And maybe a band will come by and hang out...

Sophia Vergara’s Tweet Response on Jimmy Kimmel Live is a Jaw Dropper [VIDEO]
Hi. My name is Gonzo, and I'm a fan of Jimmy Kimmel. There I said it. That's step number one, right? Seriously, Kimmel has managed to consistently managed to crack my ass up since his days as "Jimmy the Sports Philosopher".
For my money, Kimmel's late night show is the best on television (Craig Ferguson would rate highly with me, too, if the bastard hadn't announced he was leaving his sh
