Wisdom has been passed over centuries from generation to generation using different devices. The ancient Sumerians wrote on papayas. The Romans used Claymation. Steve Guttenberg invented the first moveable type bible. Later that month, punk rockers made zines, where one sticks X-acto blades and rubber cement into a photocopier, then swears at it. Enter sage punk rocker Ben Snakepit: zinester, manager of the second largest video store in America, and now, for the very first time, lead singer/guitarist of his own band: Shanghai River. Roll out this tanning bed of knowledge, take off your clothes, and bask in Ben's good, old-fashioned stick-pin tattoo-style advice to live by: "If you don't make your own gasoline, that's not punk"; "Stop drinking when blood comes out of your butt"; and "No body wants to fuck you when you get too fat." The Socrates of the now-punks? Only time-and the beard growth-will tell.
