Dear Michael Jackson, You were one of the top-five Most Famous People of all time. Your music, your tunes, your sound and your performances were the stuff of legends. You were awesome in that 3-D Captain EO show at Epcot. You own 13 Grammy awards. You’ve sold more than 50 million copies of “Thriller.” You [...]

A very wise man once said, “What you do with your attitude is up to you.” He also said, “Attitude has a one word definition: Life.” No doubt about it — a positive attitude is contagious and is just about the most decent thing one can inject into The Community. With that prelude, Decent Community [...]

Hello Community! During your time reading this site, you may sometimes get the feeling that we’re a crew of dirty hippie-type dudes, always talking about Phish and Jerry. But that doesn’t really tell the whole story. The truth of the matter is that we enjoy all types of jams — as long as they bring some form of decency [...]

Wow! Phish rocked the Bay State crowd for the second time in a week Saturday night at the Comcast Center in Mansfield. The tailgating scene was extremely decent, the jams were electric and the throngs of fans were jacked up for a fun evening of grooves. Here’s a few of the yay’s and nay’s from the show. [...]

Consumate envelope pusher Beck Hansen has been named Decent Community’s Decent Bastard of the Week. Oozing with unique artistic stylings, Beck’s music is unpredictable, unclassifiable, and an altogether refreshing departure from the spoon fed cacaphony that’s typified in today’s popular music landscape. He’s produced thoughtful album after thoughtful album — from Mellow Gold and Odelay, through Midnight Vultures [...]

Lipless Kiss (slang for “dancing”): The act of caressing with the body. The Passing of love from one to the other by dance and movement. An artistic nonlipped form of communication. To engage in mutual touching or caressing with the hips. Like a kiss there is leading and follow and like locked lips taken orally [...]

Surprisingly there are quite a few current Sox players I could see having Baby Beluga as their theme song as they walk from the on deck circle to the batters box at Fenway. I could see Dave — because he’s big like a whale. JD Drew — because he’s soft like a whale. Maybe even [...]

Wanted to share this beautiful love story about a fat, ugly man named Gus and a supposed lesbian named Yvette. Both have fallen on some hard times and have had extreme difficulties getting laid! Enter destiny (and smooth singer/guitarist/surfer/ladies man Jack Johnson). Out of options, Gus approaches the apparent lesbian in a department store and entices her [...]

Lingering questions soon become answered, but not in word form. A divine form of communication is created, so pure and so honest that no room is left for bias or misinterpretation. Emotions that previously seemed inexistent begin to take birth right before your eyes. These emotions are so concise and so complex that to label [...]

It’s just about every day when a fool tries to set someone up for a 211. Chances are – they fuck around and get caught up in a 187. And so it goes for residents of Compton and beyond – the daily grind of trying to avoid getting jacked up. Section 187 of the California Penal Code [...]

Here’s what I know about Major League Baseball Spring Training games: They’re a joke, players run laps in the outfield during the game and only a few players on the big league roster even play (and only play for like 2 innings). It seems like the Red Sox are always playing the Twins. Who the [...]
