We won't listen to the lizard part of our brains...




... giving us orders



it turns out that the whole reptilian part of our brain tale is bunkum
critters that became humans diverged from critters that became reptiles long before 
there was any kind of lizard brain


another hoary old pistacchio 
like sex addiction
trickle down economics
and anything ayn rand espoused
giving us pre cooked excuses
for being cunts
has caught the last fiery skidoo 
to bullshit land
and disappeared in the cosmic cloud of eternal horseshit

a girl named dennis






i used to work with dennis

she had curly blondish hair

and silver hoop earrings

she was in her early to mid 20s

but seemed so adult to me

she knew about all kind of work stuff

like macros, franking and that the boss wore a wig

she had a boyfriend with a balkace name

who sounded like a real shit

they lived near handschuhseim


dennis didnt get cranky at me

even though i was a totalmente squillibrato

in fact she was kind of fond of me

as if i were a fun but pesky little brother



her real name was janice

pronounced janəce

but

in that age of faxes for all

people kept taking her name as janiːce

and using it as such in follow up calls

so in an attempt to make it clearer she changed the spelling to janece

only for

much to her horror

some bloke rings up and asks for dennis

making her forever dennis

in my yo la tengo


dennis wasnt cool

but dennis was pretty damn cool

Била једном једна земља or Underground (no wombling required)





the birth, brief life and death of a nation
via ww2, the cold war and the disintegration of yugoslavia
combined with all flavours of whackiness

soooo much going on here...

'estoy seguro que la palabra piscina no es como en italiano'




Érase una vez en Caracas

un non gringo que hablaba italiano y aprendia lentemente espanol

en la casa de sus queridos amigos

el contaba a su pana eeespencer

que es util y super conveniente  que hay muchisimas palabras italianas que son casi iguales a las en espanol

le dio unos ejemplos

como sabato/sabado, mare/mar, cucina/cocina


pero eeespencer no estaba convencido

y le dijo 'bueno, estoy seguro que la palabra 'piscina' no es como en italiano!

la respuesta fue

...

en italiano se dice

...

'piscina'!


badowww!

mal ejemplo eeeeespencer amigorino!



si, si ya se que en mexico se dice alberca

y en argentina se dice pileta

coulda shoulda woulda no.6 - stockholms skärgård




du är en idiot!
hur kan man åka till stockholm och inte besöka skärgården?!

these were the lovely words with which i was greeted on my return to gothenburg
by the ever charming Mårten when i got back to his home town 
from my scandi adventures

and he was right!

Don't Fight It, Chirp It



when bobby gillespie toured sri lanka in 1991
on his instrumental (plus bleeping machines)
Searching For The New Sound tour
he was desperately seeking inspiration
primal screams first two albums didnt blow minds
alan mcgee of creation had given him the word on electronic music
but he was struggling to make this new sound gel

upon arrival he decided to stay near the bleach
so he chose mount lavinia
he likely had some nasty jet slag
from the hefty flight east from ex eurolandia

doubtless he was awake for many long sweaty colombo hours
though im sure he plumped for hair conditioning
during one of those sleepless nights
he kept hearing a birds repeated call
five single chirps

after finally falling into the sweet caress of mother somna
he woke the late the next morning
with a eureka stockade moment
his creative block had dissolved
and smashed out dont fight it, feel it
the first track for their blockbuster album
screamadelica
yes that ickle birdie inspired dont fight it, feel it
(inadvertently while just trying to get laid)
and set primal scream on a path to worldish domination
by melding indie rock and electronica




n.b (though it cant be ruled out that he could have been inspired by somehow knowing he would see me in spitalfields market some 20 years in the future...)

n.b 2 (this could all be utter, utter unmitigated hogwash)
