Then you had better use the acronym MCR or they will know you are *not* cool 
because you pronounce the full name. Secret short-attention-span-disorder 
code.

I am now digging the hell out of the new solo cd from Sulo, the singer from 
the Diamond Dogs. The DDs sound like the Faces, and Sulo's album has all the 
organic warmth of the early Rod albums (the Mickey Waller, Martin 
Quittenton, era). Not to mention that the new DDs record kicks ass as well.

And I'm not saying DD for the same reason as MCR fans say MCR...although 
since kids text and email about 10x as much as they actually speak, that's 
probably why abbreviations are cool.

on my way to see the ny dolls for the first time in 33 years!
