Last night I was having a conversation with a group of friends (one of which made a killer italian dinner over which we conversed). My friend Joe (italian dinner creator) made a very good point about capitalism. We had been talking about various religions and he got to saying how capitalism is a religion itself. Instead of going to church on sundays, people are spending...

Insecurious, do you mean a cokehead neighbor? One of my old friends that was quite a cokehead used to fucking cut the grass at 4AM. Pretty lame.

Hmm...I dunno about that theory. I think for some people it may be true but for most I think they still need their chair in the sky to sleep well at night.
Can you feel, can you perceive?
swaying cities sliding on dreams
floating thru wall-less rooms,
vixens on jet-ski brooms,
far beneath the storm
Lace spangled dreams of silk taffeta
glide on suspended time
whipped water cream, sweet like rosetta
flowing thru my spine
Lace spangled dreams of silk taffeta glide on
suspended time
no time for weeping, Tao's love seeping
permeating this world.

Yes... way too many people talk in movie theaters nowadays. There really should be a coalition that goes around and annihilates these people. What ever happened to people being silent and soaking up a film and then trying to piece everything together at the end? Why is it that people find it so necessary to have everything explained to them instantly? People are forgetting to...

OH! please come to SF then! you'll LOVE what a movie theater turns into over here! it's like watching a sitcom with cued canned laughter and donahue style clapping. I had the misfortune of watching TRUE LIES on opening night in SF and the freakin people went nuts over any move schwarzenegger made. we're talkin clapping, screaming, throwing popcorn at the terrorists. there was absolute madness reigning supreme. I'm just used to tucson theaters where everyone is there to waste time while waiting to die. i don't really mind the chaos though. so long as it's not completely unruly.

Man, you should try seeing a movie in Hong Kong or SE Asia. Nobody turns their cell phones off, people have loud conversations throughout, the audiences are crazy and boistorous, and none of it considered rude. And going "shhh!" is considered funny...
We got a drummer. Perfection.
The practice went very well. This drummer fits right in with the direction we want the band to move in. All is very good in my abode.
Tell me, how is/was your weekend my dear friends?

suoda, I have read High Fidelity. Interestingly, I lent it to a girl I kinda like recently and she despised it so much...said it was nothing but a male fantasy how women should be and how it was totally unrealistic that they got back together in the end...she was like, so pissed off about it. I told her that ultimately I thought it it was so good because it *was* kinda throwing light on some of the scarier parts of the male mind. That notion seemed to piss her off even more...
I wonder how many other women have seen the book this way? This may call for another thread....
btw, there's more activity on the Stereolab thread now thanks to Prudence bumping it up and drawing some more people in...we will not let it perish!

I don't know! I think you had it right around the second time. I'm not well enough to be thinking at the moment! =x
Okay, time for a break from quotes and poems and such... time for the real deal...
So, my band plays with our potential replacement drummer tommarow. Needless to say, I am very excited about this. We have been hunting for a sufficient replacement for a long time. I have forgotten what it is like to play in my ideal band. This will be a welcome...

Yes, drummers are pretty hard to find.
Crepes and coffee before, I say. You never know, in the wake of our destruction we might accidentally kill off the ones we meant to save -- including those who make good espresso and coffee and crepes! Yikes, wouldn't want that. We will dine on crepes and caffeine before we take on the world.
Oh and by the way, did I by any chance tell you I'm diggin your recent pic?

Thy hand, Belinda! Darkness shades me;
On thy bosom let me rest.
More I would - but death invades me:
Death is now a welcome guest.
When I am laid, am laid in earth
May my wrongs create
No trouble, no trouble in thy breast;
No trouble, no trouble in thy breast;
Remember me ... remember me, but ah,
forget my fate;
Remember me ......

praise be to whole milk. the cow is fucking amazing. they have four stomachs! FOUR stomachs, can you believe that?

oh, yeah, and that's PROFESSIONAL music geek!
Ah.. yes. Today I am influenced by so much. From Copeland's moving Third Symphony, to free jazz mixing with hip-hop, to Hubert Selby Jr and his command over ugly America, to Georges Seurat's vision of all different colors composing a whole in his painting of "La Grande Jatte", to the twisted poetry and prose of Soul Coughing. And to that photograph, draped in black and...

Okay... today we are gonna try something that could turn out quite lame.
Do you guys have any burning curiosities about me?
That is the entry for today. I feel like I should put up some super witty journal entry that is bursting at the seams with creative genius, but this is what I came up with today... bear with me...
I will get you...

I think I may marry a Maple Tree. Trees are as honest as the rings in their trunks. The way she dances on this blustery day, as the cold fingers of canada surround us, draws me into a trance.

If everyone used megaphones instead of cellphones.... they wouldn't be anymore obnoxius.
Just imagine a nation of megaphones... hmm... maybe I can put some sort of Kubrick twist on it. Hey, if ONE HOUR PHOTO can do it, so can I.

Thanks for the words. It is good to know that some people are still in it for the love.

life has never made sense to me. what's more perplexing is the fact that I complain. really, when one steps back and observes the entire picture, life is never actually as bad as we sometimes make it out to be. everything is changeable. everything is just out of reach.... so then, take another step forward. it's that simple.
joscelyne:
Guitar harmonics and rhythm make me swooooooon, my friend. I hear it, I feel it and I go absolutely nuts.
And you're right about the angel thing. Apparently they take a liking to it all too much. Or maybe everything's all in my head and I'm making it out to be a bigger deal than it already is. Must be the fever. But if everyone else is feeling it maybe I'm not so insane after all?
