Quick, Sunday night, just some exhibits for your weekjump Mondaze...
"I Hate Mondays"
Exhibit Eh: I told you I was ripping my CD's. Canadian 90's rec-room rawk. I didn't even know what speed was when I bought this CD*. I didn't even drink coffee.
Exhibit Bee: I have it on good authority from the Winnipeg Office that this is the funniest bad movie ever. They have seen all of the movies, so I am currently procuring a copy. Do the same, then we can have a Q & A.
Exhibit See:YARN BOMBING. Prolly old hat for the Graf and Craft heads, but I was feeling it (it felt soft).
Hey gang. How you doin? How's your Mama doin? How's your Papa doin? There's heavy dumps of journalism gathering out here at GI hq. The offices are getting an overhaul. Although we can't afford a secretary, the recession-proof budget has allowed for Opium scented incence, Chinese fieldworker hats and rubber ducks - the den vibe is strong and the piles of files are being filed in time.
Choices are being made about what documents to shred and which to keep. "Does this CD-R need it's cushy pocketed slip apartment, or should it live immortal as 320 Mp3's? (until the electro-magnetic pulse wipes out all the hard drives in a split second, cool it down, the globe still has that New Obama smell, does it make sense to dust off reminder of plausible collapse?)" These are the questions. It's a heady atmosphere, but the luddites on the cutting edge of something are learning the words to the new songs and making all the tackles in the backfield.
I know this is very inconsequential ultimately but it hits a nerve: I have been obsessed with how Twilight's giant abstinence metaphor and the totally crazy-making sexual tension in the movie (where they don't even kiss until 3/4 of the way in) has a ridiculous hold on this country, and how I feel like, even though Obama won, the puritans may be winning this round of the culture wars. ABSTINENCE? NO CURSING? WHAT ELSE IS LEFT? PROHIBITION?
"KEITHDANIELS (2 years ago) I can make a poodle within six seconds. (Not standard dog) I'm going to try to beat the world record in mid December 2006 "
PSS: I looked forever for the clip from Down By Law when Roberto Begnini is singing "I seeee by your haut-fit that you...are a cow-boy!" After I get my equipment set up, I'll be able to proivde such juice from my own files.
