That commercial spot is realllly cool…

I was just listening to J. Mascis And The Fog - Grand Me To You

The man converted to Islam, was banned from stepping onto Israeli soil and has decided to go back into the studio. This is the guy who recorded “The Wind” and now he’s putting out albums such as “A Is For Allah“.

Is he the Gary Busey of Western Muslims?

I was just listening to Dido - Here With Me

I read this morning about the latest Command & Conquer PC game and why the Germans are freaking out over it. I’m assuming the German goverment doesn’t play Return to Castle Wolfenstein either.

I suppose that’s what a lot of people don’t like about The United States, the way our culture glorifies war. And I can see their point - watching the news these days is like watching the halftime show for the Super Bowl.

I was just listening to Fishbone - Shakey Ground

This past weekend forced me to drop my habit of not sleeping….ever. Now, I’m falling asleep around 11-midnight and waking up around 6-8am. How regular is that? I suppose I do feel better. And I was getting really good at functioning without any sleep too. I was getting to the point where I did not feel inclined to pass out in class from exhaustion. I was not blurting out incoherent and stupid remarks in class because of sleep deprivation. I wasn’t falling asleep on the L and sleeping through the Damen stop (usually I wake up just before the doors close).

And now I’m going to be all prepared, rested and ready to go for my 10am Dev & Pre-production class. I need to put the finishing touches on my “urban legend” adaptation….

I was just listening to Eric Burden and War - Spill The Wine

I’ve been curious about the practice of posting up several movie/album/party/propoganda one sheets on various surfaces/places in the big cities. This is what I found:

The Ingredients:
-Wallpaper paste
-Elmers Glue
-Plastic bucket or container
-Course brush or roller
-Shitty Clothes

The Recipe:
-2/3 wallpaper paste
-1/3 elmers glue
-mix well and brush mixture onto surface
-put up poster and cover with wheatpaste
-try to work out the air bubbles
-then get the hell out of there

The Scoop:
It looks best to put them up in a horizontal or vertical lines.
Try not to put them up over other people’s work and be
selective about where you paste them. Abandoned
buildings and construction sites are the best. Do not get caught!
