Who Knew John Cusack was Blogging?

Here's something he wrote in a tribute to Joe Strummer: "If Roy Orbision sang for the lonely, Joe sang for the hungry.... His voice was liquid desire and it ignited as it left his mouth, his body shaking to contain the heat, like a rocket in the first phase of lift-off.... He was a pioneer who demanded art and politics be fused in the interests of humanity and truth...Knowing him, I was always humbled by his grace and intelligence, his passion, and the sheer ferocity of his will... and Jesus Christ that man could fucking rock." Nice writing there, Lloyd Dobler. The political stuff is quite interesting, too. John Cusack makes films.

Wow, this guy can write! I've tried to subscribe to just his blog on The Huffington Post, but it's all or nothing ... Argh!
