G Tuesday, July 12th 2005 - 11:22:38 AM Good morning. Hey C, thanks for reminding, this format can hold 150 entries and we're already close to that, so time to save it in The Lounge :-) I also recall Nigey Lennon once mentioning something about halcyon, gotto go back in time to find that... laters

//Clas Tuesday, July 12th 2005 - 08:57:54 AM "Halcyon and On"? That was clever. Why not name my album "Halcion and Gone"? Hell, I have to copyright that one too. During the night I also found out that Halcyon is a special kind of Kingfishers, they live around Australia. So much to learn, so little time. Gina! Save all writings here at the Café Déscargot, especially my notes, I may need them some day.

Daddy G. Friday, July 8th 2005 - 07:25:22 PM I agree, G, about the violence having nothing really to do with religion or politics. It has to do with the sick minds involved, nothing more. And you gotta admire the defiance of that letter. Not that the terrorists will ever actually read such and understand it, but it's comforting to the rest of us and helps inspire our resolve. Thanks for presenting it here.

C Friday, July 8th 2005 - 03:43:32 PM If this is Al Qaida, the problem is that London has never dealt with that sort before. And I am not surprised, it had to happen some day soon.

G Friday, July 8th 2005 - 09:09:48 AM Hi Daddy G... Violence on these terms has nothing to do with religion or politics. They're just fanatics, nothing else. Here's something Herb Sierra from CNN sent, it was printed in the London Times:

Daddy G. Friday, July 8th 2005 - 01:25:32 AM Been running errands all day and have not been able to follow much news coverage of the London bombings, but I just wanted to add that of course my thoughts and prayers are with the British people this evening. As usual the worst events bring out the best in people. Perhaps one day we'll figure out a way to allow the "best" to show up first as a matter of course and not just on the heels of the "worst" in the first place. (If that makes any sense.) I'm saddened and horrified. I want no part of anybody's belief system (political, religious, or whatever) which would allow such actions to be interpreted as "right" or "justified" in any way.

Daddy G. Friday, July 8th 2005 - 01:16:57 AM Thanks for the links "Baby Baby." Those mantid egg cases look very similar to ones I've found in the forsythia bushes this year. I didn't know what they were. Now I'm thinking they might be the remnants of mantid egg cases. Would explain why I've seen more than usual little ones this year.

G Thursday, July 7th 2005 - 05:01:57 PM Somehow the quiet and calm the Brits are handling this whole mess with, is "comforting" and to be respected! Right NOW the press conference is being held and one of the answers given was so right on the dot. A reporter asked about the muslem extremist reference and the coordinator replied that he wanted to make a clear statement about muslems and extremists being two different "things" to begin with... Yes. Chapeau bas for the way the Brits handle all of this...

He abused other members, threatened to sue me and bankrupt me and insulted me on numerous occaisions and also posted threats and suggestions that were outside the law. I have advised Islander java man, beachcomber, etc and now pilgrim that coming to this site is trespassing. Another letter has been sent to the RCMP advising of his trespassing activity." Now that is playing ball like it's scary. But notice the feds can't read. Oh, that praying beetle talk, I'll "let it slide". I may look big and powerful but I'm not mean.

C Wednesday, July 6th 2005 - 01:57:55 PM Ah, I'd like to see that one! Did they ever show the Mitchell docu down at your place? With Crosby, Nash, Geffen and all of the Jurassic Park creatures talking about how great she was? --- The coolest moment on the Browne-concert (when he was here with band and promoting Naked Ride Home) was in the middle of the concert when they played The Pretender followed directly by Running On Empty. I am not ashamed to say that that moment was better than any Steely Dan ditto... I got goosebumps and got high, and almost cried. Well... off to hang wallpapers again. And it's hot like hell.

G Wednesday, July 6th 2005 - 01:49:56 PM Hi there C. On the docu note, they showed a clip from the Eagles and their first hitsingle "Take It Easy". It was co-written by Jackson Browne, no clue about that or completely forgotten about it. Too much trivia, so little time :-)

Daddy G. Tuesday, July 5th 2005 - 04:56:32 AM By the way, if I may briefly go back to the old praying mantid thread for a moment, I just wanted to say that I've been having more sitings of teeny, tiny praying mantid babies this spring/summer (which I don't remember ever noticing before). Then this afternoon when leaving the house to go to a holiday cookout I wanted to shut one of the front bowed windows, but had to go outside to shoo a mantid (about a 2" one) off the window ledge so it wouldn't get crushed. It was already handicapped, having only one forelimb! Poor guy! I wonder if those things grow back....

Daddy G. Tuesday, July 5th 2005 - 04:36:50 AM "Ah come on Daddy G, United States are today what the Roman Empire was back then. And one day it has to break down. It's the nature of the game. And meanwhile it is fun to poke fun over you gringos. Don't take it personal." Well, I normally don't take it personally and will just let such comments slide, but today just seemed like the right day to speak my mind for once about such things even though I'm not normally a flag-waver by any means. The original comment's tone about Americans in general just seemed ill-timed and specifically designed for no other reason than to provoke a reaction on this day. Which is probably even more reason why I should have held my "tongue" in check, but I just couldn't let it pass. "All in fun" is fine. I'm down with "all in fun" most times. But sometimes if something "all in fun" is repeated enough it ceases to be "fun" and is just mean-spirited and/or disrespectful. Especially when coming from an anonymous poster. I know it wasn't you Clas, so I do appreciate your "explanation" post even if you do use the disparaging "gringo" term which I don't particularly care for, but I won't hold it against you since I now know it's "all in fun." :-) As for "...one day it has to break down. It's the nature of the game," well, that may be true, but it doesn't mean that anyone should necessarily root gleefully for that outcome ASAP as it seems as if some folks do. I just think that there's middle ground somewhere between the "America sucks, death to the imperialist pigs" people and the "What's good for America is good for the world" people. Oh well. I'll get over it. In fact I pretty much have already (believe it or not) and even if I don't, well, A) there's no particular reason why anyone around here should worry about my feelings anyway (I can take such posts most days), and B) I'm not gonna drag out the issue into some long pointless non-Steely debate. Everyone can feel however they feel about America and Americans or even me in particular for that matter. But just this once I had to speak up and say my piece. Having done that, I'll shut up on the topic now. I'd much prefer such things stayed in the Yellow anyway where we traditionally see such crossfire. :-) Peace.

G Monday, July 4th 2005 - 09:19:42 PM Clas, it's surprise after surprise these days... never imagined you to be "Runnin' On Empty" for real, but then again, i'm sure there must be a rush involved. Aha. Rush! That's another one! Daddy G. you're free to speak your mind in here, so is anyone else. But it's something that's been established years ago, (ever since there's been multi continental participation in Yellow and such) there's stuff we find alliance in and there's stuff we see from different points of view. In some regards our nationalities seem to shine through, so we speak from our respective cultural angles and differences. It's interesting though, as always, in what ways we define our identity as being related to the countries we were born in, or where we grew up, or the tongues we speak. Would amnesia bring out the true meaning of one's existence and reveal life and identity as an entity of circumstance and chance rather than fate?

And I just felt fine! --- Ah come on Daddy G, United States are today what the Roman Empire was back then. And one day it has to break down. It's the nature of the game. And meanwhile it is fun to poke fun over you gringos. Don't take it personal.

Daddy G. Monday, July 4th 2005 - 07:21:41 PM I wrote that last post somewhat hastily and I just want to "edit" the first couple paragraphs: I just gotta say... don't mistake your perception of Americans (or American politics and American foreign policy) for the demeanor and intentions of Americans in general. You couldn't be more wrong. I'm not proud of everything that is officially done with an American flag attached or everything that some Americans say or do, but I am indeed proud to BE an American. The good far outweighs the bad, both present day and in history. Nobody that I know of has ever claimed America is perfect. (Sorry 'bout that. Just trying to clarify a little.)

Daddy G. Monday, July 4th 2005 - 06:52:35 PM To whom it may concern... I just gotta say... don't mistake your perception of Americans (or American politics and American foreign policy) for the demeanor and intentions of Americans in general. You couldn't be more wrong. I'm not proud of everything that is officially done with an American flag attached or everything that some Americans say or do, but I am indeed proud to be an American. The good far outweighs the bad, both present day and in history. Nobody that I know of has ever claimed America is perfect. Just as a church is not the building of brick, mortar, and wood, but the flock, so too is a country it's citizenry, not just it's geographical borders and leaders. I for one do not come on these boards and preach the American "gospel" as a rule, so please forgive me if just this once (I really don't want to see this board become as political as the Yellow) I do have this to say. I have never ever felt the need to apologize for being an American. For one thing I can't help it, I was born and raised here. And for another I choose to see the good as well as the bad and the ugly and I think the good is the biggest slice of Americana. In saying all this I'm NOT trying to imply that America is superior to other nations. I'm sure Sweden is a wonderful land, the Netherlands too, and ditto for any other nations that folks happen to call home, either by birth or adoption. I suppose that sometimes something I post might be considered American-centric, but I can't help that because, well, I'm an American, it's simply part of who I am. I'm sorry to go on like this, but I do get so tired of some of the seeming Anti-American baiting which goes on from time to time on various boards. I can understand where much of it stems from---America is seen as a the big bad bully (and admittedly there are many good reasons for that view) these days and nobody likes that. I get that. Heck, to cite a far less significant example I dislike the NY Yankees for that same reason. But I don't go around baiting NY Yankee fans (and I do have friends who are Yankees fans) just because they choose to root for them. So please, on the one day when Americans celebrate and reflect on their history and what made/makes their nation great in their eyes, just let us have our day... Thank you. And by the way, it is generally understood that the term "America" is the short and sweet version of the mouthful that is "the United States of America." North, Central, and South America are continents or regions, but "America" is understood and accepted by most rational folks to mean the organized country. It is not an attempt to raise ourselves above the other so-called Americas. It's just shorthand, a convenience---that's all. After all, people don't walk around referring to "the People's Republic of China," do they? No, they simply say "China" and the meaning is clear. Thanks. I've had my say. Have a nice day. Peace to all, Americans and everyone else. (And I'll try hard to make that all I have to say on the subject.)

And notice how things just grind to a halt in Dandom and beyond, how our usually industrious town cryers are suddenly silenced... never fails... funny. Evidence these people really do this for a living, you know recreate the USA experience online, spread its concerns, reinforcing the perspective (liberal in theory, huey in practice) strenght in numbers, elbow to elbow onwards marching on, all wide-eyed AOL-ed and Time-Warner-ed that they are. No shit, this why they commute. And all in all, it doesn't even afford them a home computer... Think of them poor things on this day.

Ooh baby I luv yer way, everyday... Wanna tell ya I luv yer way, hey hey... I saw a guy who visited jass clubs with a thin lizzy vinyl under his arm, quoting the star child and the late glittered poets at every turn. Guess it's the latest in chic. I see Ron Jeremy on guitar. Used to be in Toto. Caption: And so the japanese, rendered numb as they were in the presence of the living Oracle, adopted Canada straight away!

G Sunday, July 3rd 2005 - 08:38:28 PM hey! Coral Egan, yes representing Canada on the World Expo in Japan. I completely forgot about it :-) And Bruce Cockburn. Nigey Lennon once sent me a link to a musician, Andy Milne (also Canadian-born)... he worked with Bruce or is it the other way around... anyhoooo, it's somewhere in the Lounge archives or the old Mizar5... What ß said. About the "new" bands and their irrelevance. And older acts as pertinent. I'd say consistent. Watching a band like Uriah Heep, i didn't expect to hear them sing so flawlessly, strong voices, good harmonies. Trevor Bolder slapped real snappy lines. And their interaction with the audience was as Kandinsky would have called it, a "reciprocal agreement". So why bother looking at a band named Scissor Sisters (who?) from New York and realize they're tiring...

money it's a hitch Sunday, July 3rd 2005 - 12:07:12 PM I did catch some of the shows during the day. My personal highlight was in Barrie, mid-afternoon, when Bruce Cockburn was having his merry way with his acoustic guitar in a flat-out fall-on-your-ass display of chops. I mean like soloing and thumbing the bass line all at once, the works. That was one fine rendition of "If I had a rocket launcher" you had to hear. If it's not on the upcoming record, you've been had. But it'll be for a good cause. And listening to his little stripped down set, I thought most of his songs of protest seem to have gained a new actuality, especially "Call It Democracy" and the aforementioned. So The Barrie Ontario show had its moments, managed to keep my attention interminently, for a while. At one point Neil Young came on and I had to take a leak, just long enough gone to lose my grasp on the remote control. Them little ones, they don't care like it's frightening, eh? No respect... And Steve Morse with Deep Purple... what monster technique. The guy's left hand stretches a good octave at rest, and surely could cover the entire fretboard on a dare. Really, he kinda looked like Stretch Armstrong, the buff yet extensible action figurine of old. Also caught others, Tragically Hip, Barenaked ladies, Motley Crue, those infamous girlie men who sang West End Girls in Moscow. Darn, I missed P. Diddy. The Long And winding Road as always remains a tear jerker, especially with the shots of little african babies struggling to walk on a dirt road. To me it's the absolute all-time ballad, that one. I must be a pussy. Really, Sir Paul has to be the one who struck a deal with the devil. Look the other guys have either died or gotten senile while he just keeps getting younger everyday. Fishy... Pink Floyd? Getting old and fat and gray like it's a little sad. They should call Paul for Satan's number, those guys. You're better off dropping acid in your room with your old vinyls, and keep your visions intact, your imagos of omniscient and omnipotent gods there. And you could say that for quite a few acts. Stevie Wonder was escorted off the stage not because he's blind, but chiefly, I suspect, 'cause he's too old and too fat. Still the old acts are the ones who sounded most pertinent. The newer ones, tired and irrelevant. Coldplay? exhausted and sad... at 22! "We don't want your money, we want your name..." so we can make poverty history by directly collecting your tax dollars later on instead? That seems to be the angle. Fair enough. Bono want a cracker. He can't bear to be rich and traveling worldwide only to witness people are dying dirt poor all over. It's ruining his rock and roll bacchanal dreams. He's gonna belt out a timely chestnut now, feel better. Like every three seconds, a child dies needlessly, it is true. But every two seconds, it's a million squids more in Elton's pocket! And that remains the bottom line on the morning after. hep b

G Friday, July 1st 2005 - 12:58:08 PM Hey Daddy G. and ß, that's another Dutch tribute band, this time in the eastern part of the country. Well, tomorrow i'll probably hear some SD covers too in Bospop Weert, that festival? Peter Frampton, Uriah Heep, Steve Lukather, Joe Cocker etc. But it starts with a couple of dutch bands, one of them rehearsing SD tunes especially for this festival. We'll see :-) Off now. And Gaucho says hi...

Daddy G. Thursday, June 30th 2005 - 10:29:34 PM http://banyantrees.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=396#396 Thanks "Forgot One." Actually, I didn't forget Stolen Dan, I just was not aware of them. Oh well, I never claimed my list was complete, but it's the best I can do. I've updated to include them. Thanks for bringing them to my attention.

angel Wednesday, June 29th 2005 - 06:46:45 PM Wow, Gina. You saw the light in your house? That is definitely too close for comfort! The worst I have ever had is tasting electricity (or was that fear I tasted). :-) Still too close, in my book.

G Wednesday, June 29th 2005 - 03:53:44 PM The skies are turning grey as i write this. Last night we had one of the fiercest thunder & lightning storms ever. It was even scary and although it was hot i was hiding under the covers in bed, coldsweat all over. Electricity is such a weird, fascinating omni-present energy. What scared the wits out of me was the sight and sound of electric fields IN the house. I saw a blue beam or line crawl up on the wall and kind of travel along the roof until it disappeared. And the sound, it was like the sound a zillion sparks would make when ignited or something. This the first time these weather conditions freaked me out :-) But anyhow, anyway...makes you in total awe for the forces of Nature!

G Monday, June 27th 2005 - 10:25:56 PM http://www.alanberliner.com/ So we're like notes in a regular scale now, or perhaps irregular? I'd vote for the chromatic scale because it's a half-step. Never really was one for the quick-step. Rumba, mambo, foxtrot, the old-fashioned waltz in Tennessee perhaps... Just watched "Nobody's Business" a documentary by Alan Berliner. It's refreshing. Particularly liked the way it was edited. Like clockwork. Literally. His father, Oscar A. Berliner was funny in his comments during this movie about the family history and Alan's search for things...

my bad is too babelicious Sunday, June 26th 2005 - 02:02:07 PM "Acned Melanie takes her blow of cocks like a queen, if 25.000 loudspeakers howl through all the echoes, over all the roofs, suddenly that it is Melanie the incomparable one... A minimum of originality, but enormously of advertisement and base. The being, the bowel, the object in question of publicity on which will flow massive propaganda, must be above all with the departure, also smooth, also unimportant as possible. Painting, the beating-advertising executive will be spread on it of as much better than it will more carefully be deprived of asperities, of any originality, than all its surfaces will be absolutely plane. That nothing in it, at the beginning, can cause the attention and especially the controversy. Publicity for giving all its magic effect well, should be obstructed, retained, be diverted per nothing. It must be able to affirm, crown, vociferate, mégaphonize the worst stupidities, any himalayesque, brainless, thundering phantasmagoria... in connection with cars, stars, toothbrushes, writers, light singers, trusses, without nobody ticking... rising with the floor, the tiniest naive objection. It is necessary that the floor remains perfectly hypnotized in time of connerie."

C Sunday, June 26th 2005 - 11:35:33 AM It's so strange. Crosby Stills and Nash played Stockholm a couple of weeks ago. Not a newspaper reviwed the concert. It's the same when James Taylor or J Browne plays this little country, not the smallest notice. Springsteen played acoustic in Gothenburg and Stockholm last week, and he's all over the newspaper. Strange.

C @ Barely Town Thursday, June 23rd 2005 - 10:53:10 AM Says Cristopher Cross when answering the question where he got the inspiration to the song "Sailing": When Christopher was young, he had a friend that used to invite him to go sailing in Texas. Christopher enjoyed the activity as a way to get away from the trials and tribulations of being a teenager. As he said on the Howard Stern radio show, if the guy had taken him bowling and he enjoyed it -- the song could have actually become "Bowling". Booowling, takes me away to dum di dum di...

And yes... Wednesday, June 22nd 2005 - 04:33:58 PM ...thanx dear Gee for the John Tabacco cd's. Haven't heard them yet. Forgot them in town. I'm down at the house, me and the cat. Well, it SHOULD be me and the cat. But I haven't seen her since she jumped off the car, she's probably out dating boys. I know her filthy mind.

Corpsy V Tuesday, June 21st 2005 - 03:26:25 PM hi Clas! How about doing a rain dance... About the link, the crucified nun. One needs very little imagination to attest of that priest's twisted mind. He's also only 29. This got nothing to do with faith.

oh Sunday, June 19th 2005 - 12:04:34 PM "I never answer the letters. That finished by being known. I receive some less and less. It is not a kind which I took. Not... Not... It is simply that I do not like the letters good once for all and that I even have them in horror. I find that indiscreet that one writes to me. I write with nobody, me. "recommended" it is my phobia. I refuse them all in block, by principle. The others, the simple sendings, it is my concierge who tears them up, it withdraws only the stamps for its little boys..."

still something does stink Saturday, June 18th 2005 - 11:36:56 AM Wasn't Skunk the one who just recently would push to leave all that high-powered missile weaponry into orbit? At a time when shuttles don't make it back to earth safely?... When shuttles find dual-use as fireworks, as sorry-ass fodder for daytime drama, so to speak... what if you were to "touch the face of gawd" again with that shit?... [TOP] |
