Man, every time I turn around these days, I'm bombarded by the "Boss Blitz". Monday it was the Today show, yesterday it was snippets from Ted Koppel's interview, then today I once again found Mr. Springsteen's mug staring back at me from a copy of Time in the mailbox.  What's up with this media juggernaut he's on? Suddenly he's everywhere at once???  That's one hell of a PR machine he's got working for him, I'll say that.

Oh, I see now...(from article linked below)

"But top producers and editors in the national media -- now in their 30s, 40s and 50s -- ''grew up on Springsteen and rock 'n' roll and think that he's more significant than what Britney or 'N Sync are doing,'' says Joe Levy, 38, music editor of Rolling Stone."

HA! Hey, who ISN'T more significant than Britney and N'Sync? But how come Bruce is suddenly so worthy of all of this attention?  

Ok, go ahead, call me a bad American, i dissed the boss. Seriously though, I like Springsteen too, but c'mon, having him shoved down my throat like this is starting to leave a bad taste.
