It’s official (mostly … I won’t believe it until I hold it in my hands): Guns n’ Roses' Chinese Democracy will be released next month. I did some research (i.e., consulted Wikipedia) and learned that work on the sure-to-suck album began way back in 1994.
It was a different world back then. There was no easily accessible Internet (I don’t know if Al Gore had invented it for science nerds yet), cheese-in-crust pizza was still a ways away, and the Tampa Bay (Devil) Rays weren't even a gleam in Bud Selig's eye.
Think about that for a second. The (Devil) Rays and Diamondbacks were “born” on March 9, 1995. Both brand-new franchises reached the World Series before Axl Rose could bring himself to dump 12 crappy tracks on a public that had pretty much forgotten about him by 1996.
I'm all about procrastination, but that's ricockulous.

There's free Dr Pepper if "Chinese Democracy" drops and free Taco Bell thanks to Jason Bartlett. In these troubled financial times, there's nothing ricockulous about that.
