Happy B-Day Big Bird! From the The Fenwicks, the number "40" & the letter "F"!
Yup! Today is Big Bird's 40th birthday! It was not so long ago (ok, maybe it was) that The Fenwicks' very own Steven Schub was being taught to read by Big Bird himself, as a Guest Star on a "very special" episode of Sesame Street.'Tis true! I...n honor of the "Big B", here's the incontra-Bird-able evidence:

"V" is for "Vendetta, "F" is for "Fenwick"-Happy November 5th!
Happy Guy Fawkes Day!
From our friends at the Motion Picture Institute- and in honor of the 5th of November:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHVTtc43r
"On November 5 of some not-so-distant year in England's future, the outlaw V hijacks the emergency broadcasti...ng channel to address a nation living under brutal dictatorship. To honor Guy Fawkes--who nearly blew up the seat of government on November 5, 1605--V reminds a complacent audience that "words will always retain their power," that free speech is the greatest weapon against tyranny, and that those who trade liberty for a false security need only look in the mirror to see who is responsible for their oppression. Adapted from Alan Moore's graphic novel, V for Vendetta reminds us that when states curtail citizens' rights to protect them from the threats of disease, hunger, and terrorism—the real threat is the state itself".
-And from your friends The Fenwicks- (and on that very note), I humbly submit to you, our anti-Eminent Domain ditty, "Preeminent Domain":

Words & Music by Steven Schub
Performed by The Fenwicks
Allow me to make it eminently clear- It's a free country Judge, or didn't you hear?
Facts are facts, and rights are rights Take my land, and you take my life
Chorus:
So easy to give, when it ain't yours
So easy to take, what you didn't create
Nothing grows on trees but leaves, and if ya don't leave us free, that's all they'll be
All we want is to be left alone From the Right and the Left, they invade our home
(Chorus)
When did we fall asleep? When did we turn to sheep?How did we get so dependent? How did we get so dumb?Why did we let this happen? When did our Government become our master?It's time to remember who we are...
I hear you laughing, but it won't be funny
There's only so far you can push this Country
'Cause facts are still facts, and Rights are still Rights
Take our land and you take our life
(Chorus)
It's upside down and inside out, but not for long, as you'll find out
It's upside down and inside out, but not for long as you'll find out

p.p.s. As a super-scary bonus below, the lyrics to "Begging for the Bullet":
Begging For The Bullet - Words by Steven Schub Music by Jimmie Corrieri Performed by The Fenwicks
I'll sing you my story, if you promise not to laugh- It's a song about a monster who's glory days are pastOnce I terrorized the Polish countryside- Made grown men cry, my claws made women screamMy fangs were feared, now I'm forced to run from sheepYes, once I ate virgins, beauties were my prey, now when I attack, they say: "Doggie wants to play"...
Chorus:Don't cry for me for I've killed too many- Don't cry for me, monsters hate pityBegging for the bullet to take this old wolf down- Begging for the bullet, the last werewolf in town
It started in the Ghetto, no means to fight, an old mystic Rabbi was there to shed some lightReb said: "Nazis are coming, Boychick you're our only hope, go to the forest, get bitten by the Wolf
(Chorus)
The next full moon, I went and dig the deed. Or should I say, the deed it done did me.At first it was great, I really must confess, an Avenging Jewish Werewolf, eating the SSBut the thing about a curse, it can not be reversed, it only gets worse, more and more perverseAnd soon it wasn't just Nazis, I was eating my fellow Jews
(Chorus)
After the War, it was Commies I'd pursue, they taste just like Momma's chicken, but the Cold War's done now tooIf I was a youngster, I might get Bin Laden, but this Old Wolf is having memory problemsWho am I? Why am I so frickin' hairy? That wolf in the mirror is so damn scaryOh wait... That's me! Oy gevalt. Ya see?
(Chorus)
Don't cry for me, for I've killed too many- Don't cry for me, monsters hate pityBegging for the bullet to take this old wolf down- Begging for the bullet, the last werewolf in townBegging for the bullet, Begging for the bullet, Begging...
