Sdtrk: ‘Fuses’ by Stereolab
I must be in some sort of building rut. Perhaps long-dead architects are attempting to contact me from beyond the graaaave. You know, like the Ghost of Architectural Christmas Past That Was Designing Buildings For The Future or something.
Anyway! Do these photos look as creepy to you as they do to me?
It’s as if it’s 1982, and I’m flipping through an issue of OMNI, staring at those bizarre illustrations that graced the pages between the short works of science fiction.
I mean, I want to live in a high-rise apartment, but these are just slightly more colourful versions of the buildings in Terry Gilliam’s ‘Brazil’. There’s hardly any sky, it’s just walls.
Ace photography, but I mean, good lord. J.G Ballard characters would refuse to live in these structures

Sdtrk: ‘Never understand’ by The Jesus and Mary chain
D’ye remember how I was exhorting people to take a Gmail invite from me cos Shi-chan & I had so many? Well, I gave away four, but since then I’ve discovered that even if you give them away, Gmail just sends you some new invites, thereby perpetually keeping you at ’50 invites left’. It’s like an Internet version of Sisyphus’ little problem! You give them away, they keep coming back! YOU GIVE THEM AWAY, THEY KEEP BUH HUH HUH *drops to knees, weeps openly*
And you have to check out this recent post that Penda’s scribed.
So I promised that I would scan and post some early journal entries from my childhood.
Scary, but a funny kind of scary. 🙂
I’d do something of a similar nature, but I kinda had a scorched-earth policy on any school-related documents prior to 9th grade. No, I mean, literally — I set them all ablaze

Sdtrk: ‘Que sera sera’, from the ‘Katamari damacy’ sdtrk
So I see my Other Favourite Jean-Luc Godard Film, Weekend, is finally out on DVD! Of course, this is the sort of thing that gets released when I’m on the dole. I was waiting about three years for this to come out back when I had a job, and now, it’s finally out. *shrugs* Guess I’ll just have to go commit a petty crime!
And does anyone out there want or need a Gmail account? Between myself & Shi-chan, we’ve got about 80 invites. 😐

Sdtrk: ‘Video 5.8.6’ by New order
My ‘100 things’ list is finally complete! Only I’m 15 things short. Tch!
Now you can all learn more than you ever wanted to know about me. Heh heh, you have no idea. Unless of course, you actually know me, then you might have some idea. Nevertheless!
Comments / snide remarks are always welcome. Well, not so much the second one

Sdtrk: ‘Lynda (Let her go)’ by Strawberry switchblade
Actually, this is Tomas.
Tomas has a Blog, called Cerebral Waste Disposal! Actually, he’s had a Blog, but he wouldn’t let anyone link to him before. Something about making sure everyone washes their hands before they access his page or some fumfuh.
Anyway! The link’s the ‘Cerebral Waste Disposal’ (duh) one over there to your left. Go say Hi, shake his hand, and call him friend

Sdtrk: ‘Yoshino no yamazakura’ by Merzbow
Another site added to the ‘colleagues & co-conspirators’ Family of Links: please welcome S N A P P E R H E A D, and all that stop round here because of him. Greetings!
And after a fine dinner at our favourite Macomb county Japanese restaurant, the lads & I caught ‘Ong bak‘ over at the AMC Forum 30 last night. You know what that fillum needed more of? It needed more kicking. More kicking, and more flying elbows/flying knees. Good lord. Does anyone have any statistics on how many Muay Thai kickboxers and wanna-be kickboxers get gruesomely killed just in training alone??
Highly entertaining? I’ll say. Of course, after the film, we were all giving each other plenty of flying elbows. What fun!

Sdtrk: ‘Meta abuse’ by Venetian snares with Speedranch
Having checked the stats out for ‘Shouting etc etc’ just a few minutes ago, I notice there’s a lot of people hitting this site. And most of them are either from foreign lands, or they’re catholics, or they’re conservatives. Not that there’s anything wrong from being from a foreign land, might I add. WTF, as the kids say??
I thought maybe these were all directed from BlogExplosion or Blog Catalog, but apparently not. According to BlogExplosion, I’ve had only eight visits via their directory, while Blog Catalog has garnered me four. And these people are just piling thru my door, without stopping to say Hi there, and idly grabbing fistfuls of snacks and just leaving. My car park off to the side of the InfoBahn has apparently become some sort of service drive.
That’s too many damn metaphors in a single paragraph. I think I’ll just stop here
