Barn's burnt down-- now I can see the moon.

The board formatting fucked that....just link to this: If anyone liked house ofleaves, you'll love e.e. cummings... Also MF DOOM muthafuck yes. Tripping off the beat kinda, dripping off the meat grinder Heat niner, pimping, stripping, soft street minor China was a neat signer, trouble with the script digits Double dip/bubble lips, sorrow less midget Borderline schizoid, sort of fine tits tho Pour the wine hold the grind, quarter to nine, lets go Ever since ten eleven, glad she met a brethren Then his last style seven alligator, seven at the gates of heaven Knocking, no answer, slow dancer, hopeless romancer, dopest flow stanzas Yes, no Villain, Metal Face the death stroke Guest shows, still incredible in escrow Just say hoe, I will taste the yayo, Wild West style fest, y'all best to lay low Hey bro, Day Glo, set the bet, pay dough Before the cheddar get away, you best to get Maaco The worst haters God on perpetrated are favors Demonstrated in the perforated Rod Lavers ... In all quad flavors, large savers Still back in the game like Jack Lalanne think you know the name, don't rack your brain on a fast track to half insane Either in a slow beat or that of speed or wrath of Kane Laughter, pain Doom's songs lit, in the booth, with the best host Doing bong hits, on the roof, in the west coast He's at it again Mad at the pen Glad that we win a tad fat in a bad hat for men Grind the cinnamon, Manhattan warmongers You can find the Villain in satin congas The vans screeches The old man preaches About the gold sand beaches The cold hand reaches For the old tan ellesse's ... Jesus

T.S. Eliot - The Wasteland, The Hollow Men, The Love SOng of Alfred J. Prufrock, The Journey of the Magi, and Four Quartets e.e. cummings - he wrote a lot of poems (around 2,900 according to wikipedia) so just grab a collection and dig in. Ezra Pound - The Cantos will blow your mind William Blake - Songs of Innocence and of Experience, Milton and Visions of the Daughters of Albion (and then you should read his prophetic books)

Hmmm interesting. It also works in OS X.

Or is it the other way round?

tons of official Soviet documents were released from Stalin's era where both him and Mao wanted the DPRK on a permanent war economy basis...the Korean peninsula was meant to be a communist base within reach of Japan and nothing else...so to say it was only the Western world that encouraged the regime to grow is complete nonsense. a change in our policies would be completely ineffective at this point anyway, its a lose-lose situation. all of the resources we send to the country are relocated by Kim Jong-Il's cadre to the top .05% of the population as a reward for their loyalty, and anything they claim to do for the benefit of the North Korean public is a complete joke of mismanagement and corruption (such as the over fertilization of river soils in 2000-2002 which led to runoff destroying what little crops the village communities had) the removal or action against Kim Jong-Il would only result in a gigantic power vacuum which would almost definitely lead to an even more radical and corrupt military junta....china doesn't like the situation ( but its not about to send a task force against its ally and one of the largest standing armies in the world.) my point is, the situation would have been fucked either way you look at it.....if we had let the Koreans fight it out themselves, the North Koreans would have surely won and to assume it would have been a socialist paradise contradicts most of the sino-soviet diplomacy from 1940s-present. The only problem is...you have to go back a little bit further. Just a few years. Try 1948 (official date of split) or even actually 1945 (when the US and the Soviet UNion decided to say "hey, Korea doesn't matter, we can ignore the pre-japanese colonization boundaries and just split it in half.OK Comrade?") In actual fact you can go back to when the US turned its back on Korea in 1905 and allowed Japan to declare it under Japanese provisional rule (after signing an agreement with Korea that it would protect it).

THe Bryson book is good. That one and the one about the english language are his good ones. The walk in the woods one is bullshit, he never walked the whole trail, just parts of it. He gets some things wrong in his science book as well as the language book, but stilla good writer for the most part. Currently reading: STephen Jay Gould - Leonardo's MOuntain of Clams and the Diet of Worms. Also: russian literature is the tits. Italo Calvino is god, but slightly overrated as a magical realist.

I love the guitarist's shirt in "the torture never stops" video kaini posted in the first set...

Pork Soda is their best album, easily. Holy Mackerel is my favorite solo deal from Les. Primus after the Brown album (which was OK, but not really anything special) has been pretty mediocre....

win. yes! i would quote the whole thing but i'm lazy That's the best verse Deck ever did spit.

Pffft RZA show 'em how it's done...

Some mocha cream bread. It's fucking awesome.

Just finished: Salman Rushdie - Fury Umberto Eco - The Mysterious Flame of Queen Loanna now reading: Mark Twain - Tom Sawyer. When I finish that I've got Huckleberry Finn to move onto.

Had grilled chicken salad topped with fresh parmesan for dinner. Now consuming digestives with a glass of water.

Breakfast: 2 whipped egg whites lightly fried in olive oil 1 slice of canadian bacon 1/2 green pepper diced 2 whole wheat rolls 1 glass of grapefruit juice 1 cup of coffee I need to be good to my body after last weekend.

I've already read all of the James Bond books. which i spose would reaffirm that you are indeed, a pretentious twat.? I guess. Dick Francis books are also awesome.

I've already read all of the James Bond books.

was my first vonnegut book and got me hooked. just started re-reading it myself. just as he would have wanted I do all my reading on the subway (90% at least). I don't see a problem with it really. Reading on the iPod is not the best, but at least I don't have to carry around the printed versions of the complete shakespeare...(I have those back in Canada).

Just finished reading "Galapagos" by Kurt Vonnegut. Next up is "Fury" by Salman Rushdie. In the odd free moment on the subway when I don't have a book, I am reading the collected works of Shakespeare on my iPod.

Brian Eno - Mother Whale Eyeless

I really love ATP and Idoru, I haven't read virtual light yet... However, I also really enjoyed Pattern Recognition just cause it was something different from him.
