I don't know if it's any good but the retro-futuristic art direction of this movie Sky Captain has me intrigued enough to maybe check it out. Anyone seen it?
Clue & Tim's new uptown spot The Cherry Lounge is a go as of last night. (Daily News)

Fuelray is OFF tonight but catch me spinning again tomorrow night. Best story from last week: this super hottie, bad-looking Spanish girl comes up to me last week and requests The Beatnuts. I say I don't have it so she asks me If I have the Ali Shaheed Muhammed so I reply "What are you: promoting for Penalty Records?" to which she replies "As a matter of fact, I am." I thought she was joking but turns out she really was working for Penalty, promises to put me on their DJ service list and then hangs out for about an hour. I know Penalty owner Neil a bit so she better come through. BTW: the new 'Nuts album might already be the winner of the album cover of the year award.
Finally though, on a more somber note: Johnny Ramone, R.I.P. (MTV News)
