Oh, another convert! :-)

I know it was hard to confess that :-)  And now I am feeling bad because I
missed last Saturday's SNL and I don't even remember why.

The kid has got talent, real talent.  I keep waiting getting to kicked out of
the JMDL because I really like Eminem's music.  Of course, most of my friends
think I am crazy too, but for me, when i really listened to it (thanks to
Michael Yarbrough and where have you been, Michael?) I was blown away by the
talent and the power.

actually he said his mother was an drinkin' druggie whore and she sued him for
millions, his defense was, it was the truth, and lo and behold it was.  They had
a settlement of a little over $1,000.  One of his songs has a great line about
being bummed out when he found out his mother did more drugs then he did.

I am really waiting for the new cd.  His first two albums are almost operatic in
scope, and the 2nd album continued from where the first album ended, and I am
waiting the next installment.  I also saw some clips from the upcoming movie, 8
Mile Road - a very detroit reference by the way, the dividing line between
Detroit and the suburbs - and it looked pretty good.  At least he has some real
presence on screen.
