Kudos to your friend, Judith. Happy Memeorial Day!

My latest effort: “Shoal With Dunes.”

7562. Macnas - 5/31/2004 4:39:45 PM

Thats good, I know places like that.

Beautiful, beautiful....Wiz, you're a wonder! Just water and pigment...lovely!

Thanks Mac & Judith. We're soon off to The Cape for more of the same and my tongue is hangin' for some natural solitude. I'm world-weary and sick of the dailyness.

Ray Charles dead at 73.

7566. judithathome - 6/10/2004 5:08:12 AM

I wonder if many will notice...the ALL FUNERAL ALL THE TIME story will likely push it out of the news.

7567. Macnas - 6/10/2004 6:10:15 PM

Poor old Ray's passing is over the news here this morning.

But it did mean I got to listen to "Hit the road Jack" on the way to work.

Now that he's dead I suppose I can rip some tracks with a clear conscience... doesn't need the money where he's gone.

7569. Macnas - 6/16/2004 9:30:43 PM

I do think, that it is time for a quiz.
Let's base it around song lyrics:

A. "I'm just a puppet of wax, a puppet of sound"
Name the writer, and what was it written for?

B. "There is a light in the forest
There is a face in the tree
I'll pull you out of the chorus
And the first one's always free"
Name the song and the writer.

C. "My back to the wall
A victim of laughing chance
This is for me
The essence of true romance"
Name the song and the writers.

D. “Young, uniform minds,
In uniform lines,
And uniform ties.
Run round, With trousers on fire,
And signs of desire,
They cannot disguise”
Name the song and the writer.

7570. PelleNilsson - 6/17/2004 7:44:57 PM

I have no idea about anything of this.

7571. alistairConnor - 6/17/2004 8:21:24 PM

I feel vaguely guilty about not knowing the answers.

7572. Macnas - 6/17/2004 8:47:28 PM

I thought you'ed get at least one of the alistair.

7573. alistairConnor - 6/17/2004 9:27:35 PM

C is nagging at me. I suppose it must be the Undertones. Damian O'Neill and whatsisname.

7574. Macnas - 6/17/2004 9:33:34 PM

Nope, different band altogether.

7575. wabbit - 6/17/2004 11:49:48 PM

I think C is Steely Dan, and Ms. No should be able to get that one very quickly, I cannot for my life recall the title.

B - Tom Waits, Just The Right Bullets.

7576. Macnas - 6/17/2004 11:54:24 PM

Well done wabbit,

B. Just the right bullets, Tom Waits (wabbit)

7577. wabbit - 6/18/2004 12:39:58 AM

C - Steely Dan, Deacon Blues?

7578. Macnas - 6/18/2004 12:48:28 AM

wabbit is wight again.

B. Just the right bullets, Tom Waits (wabbit)
C.Deacon Blues, Steely Dan (wabbit)

Gots to go, see yez Monday.

I could not think of the Steely Dan song title last night either, and I love that album. It's the only familiar one.

A few meaningless observations on very current video stuff I've seen while working on this mess of a study. Maroon 5's lead singer is obnoxious and their current hit will not leave my head if I accidentally hear it, Res was right about Evanescence, Alannis (I still like Bob's nickname: All-Anus) Morisette is even more annoying with a boyfriend, and Modest Mouse is fascinating. I'd also like to see more of Brand New. And it seems there were some The Cure fans in the Mote and he has a new video out.

And I LOVE A Perfect Circle. Mose's boyfriend went into their concert a Bush man (don't get me started) and came out enthusiastic about voting for Kerry.
