If you feel the burning need to get to fifty, don't pollute the rest of the board. Do it in here!
But DONT GET ALL MEAN and CHANNY! If you do, you will never get to the promised land!

Ok, I'll nibble. So I can just say whatever I want to here to notch up my post count as long as I don't be a big jerk about it?
I need to buy laundry detergent.

What happens at 50 posts?
You can access the Downloads section of the board, which is a pretty nice treasure chest. However, if you can be just a little patient and make real posts to get to 50, you'll probably feel a lot better about yourself.

Hello everyone. Casualviking....I think I know you.

Birdleisure, you think you know me?
Do you work at the Arby's in the Cherry Hill Mall?
-
Ahhh...I did do some consulting work there a year and a half ago. I gave that seminar on strategic grill placement and a couple of training sessions on general sandwich construction. That must be it. Nice to talk to you again.
-
I'm not so sure we should keep this charade up, Birdleisure. I already feel a little guilty about posting nonsense. I did post my first real topic today though. I think now I understand how a father must feel on the day of his first child's birth. Of course, it's all downhill after the first.

Hey Moondog, nice Mickey Rourke avatar.
It's good to see Mickey get some love for The Wrestler. Especially after being snubbed by the academy for his masterful work in Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man. It's obvious to me, he pretty much spearheaded the 21st century "chopper" renaissance. Thanks Mickey. Vrrrooom, Vrrrooom.

I thought I didn't like cream cheese for decades. Finally as a grownup I had some on a bagel and I was stunned by what I'd been missing in my semi-health-conscious household growing up.

I believe I had my first cream cheese on a mini bagel at a reception for students interviewing for scholarships at the university I was about to enroll in. I literally had to go away to college to eat cream cheese. Also: Chinese food. Also: most other foods.

Burn burn burn.
A good part of my childhood was spent at the health club where my mom taught aerobics and was a personal trainer. For many years, my parents did not eat red meat. Mayo and cream cheese and a couple other things were stuff my parents never bought, so it was never in the house, so I never had them.
What was your own eating like as a child?

Thats all very startling! Were you raised with a family concerned with healthful food? What was you diet growing up?
Burn burn burn.
I was a picky eater as a kid, and thus never got into the habit of trying new things. My parents never pushed it, so I basically had a small menu of things I liked. We were mostly a fast-food and frozen-pizza kind of family, anyway. I didn't try many new things at all until college, when it was often out of necessity, and then I discovered that vegetables can actually be very delicious!
Also: I really love Tool Academy.
-
I ate a lot of liverwurst as a kid. Not sure why. Can't stand it now.
I haven't eaten green for almost 8 years now.
Also: I'm off Chinese food.
-
I never got on board for Chinese food.
Orange Chicken as a fast food treat, sure.
But traditional chinese food just isnt for me. I feel like everything is watery veggies or sloppy meat.

I had oatmeal with brown sugar and cinnamon this morning. Burn burn burn.
I have oatmeal with honey and a pinch of salt every work day.
Um, Burn?
-
I ate a lot of liverwurst as a kid. Not sure why. Can't stand it now.
I still eat liverwurst and I recently tried head cheese.
It wasn't as bad as I thought it might be.
-
Oh hell.
I'll burn a post.
It's 17 degrees in Brooklyn.
Cold.
-
And another. Just to call it half-way.
G'night.

Congratulations!

"The Wrestler", three words AP Mike's Grocery Store.

Counting AP Mike as one word.

Ended up passing on the movies. Timing was off.

Leaving for the movie in 45 mins. Tomorrow I'll try to see Waltz with Bashir.

I can't believe I wasted my time posting in this section for time-wasting posts to tell you what movie to see and you didn't even go.

I did take your vote into consideration .. if that means anything to you.

But thanks.
And thanks for giving me this opportunity to respond and burn another post.

Ahh I was trying for a mix of legitimate/burn posts to get to 50 but I'm just going to do 13 posts to finish this off. Sorry.
1 of 13. Collect them all.

I feel

like a

jerk for

doing this.
-
but i promise to
-
keep posting after this.
thanks.
-
just dropping by
-
to waste
-
some posts
-
instead of waiting
-
like a normal person
-
I'm not going to apologize.
-
I'm just going to do this.
-
Maybe it'll be like Fuel Dump.

Where I post a line at a time...
-
Of the next great American novel.

Or I'll just write a bunch of first sentences for future stories to write.

And then...he jumped.

"Sorry, I didn't hear you," Tom said.
"I said..." GOMPED.

And THAT'S why I only have my middle fingers.

"I want to see the world," said Jon to Jim, his conjoined twin.

The dusting of snow that lightly covered dry, fallen leaves of autumn slid to the barren ground as a slight breeze skittered the brittle things over the rocky land...APOCOLYPSE!

that was quite enjoyable.

Harold couldn't do it any longer. The sun was too hot. It was exhausting. He called his family together to break the news.
"We can't move, dad! All my friends are here!" yelled Jimmy.
"We have to, son. We have to move...OFF OF THE SUN."
Then they moved to Earth.

"I'm sort of overwhelmed, so I'd like to be last choice," said Stacy. She was picked first.
-
Sigh. I'll never get to 50.
-
Being relatively new to the forum, would someone care to explain what is so important about getting to 50 posts?
-
I'm officially halfway to 50.
-
some sort of
-
secret
-
will apparently be
-
revealed when
-
we hit
-
fifty
-
posts.
-
something to do with
-
a hidden board.
-
What is
-
This Hidden Board
-
That You Speak Of?
-
I wanna start a cover band with me and some other fat guys doing Sabbath songs in early Black Flag style. Our name? Yeah, you guessed it: BLACK FLABBATH.
That is all.
-
This is a great idea. It's about time somebody does something musically innovative.
-
Killin' it.
-
I would like to start the C + C + Cake Music Factory.
-
I gotta get through some posts...I got a road trip coming up!
-
I got 30 more posts...this'll take a while
-
Damn my lurker ways
-
I feel so dirty...or is it drrrty
-
ellipsis
-
half way there. That'll do for now.
-
I'm sorry but....
-
I only have(had) to burn...

five

posts

total.
Yay!
-
You did it! I am not there yet...
-
(but can't wait to see what it's like on the other side)...
-
There's nothing but disappointment.
-
You can't almost spell disappearing ointment without disappointment.

trip

Where to?

(I should have thought of that for my last road trip... but we listened to 'Oh, Family' instead, so all was well).

But: here's getting ready for all future road trips!

Paul Blart
-
Mall Cop
-
but i don't
-
think i will
-
because it looks

really terrible
-
Well, I've got 49, so I suppose its ok if I do one here.....
-
Just gonna...
-
Yep...
-
I just really want to hit that 50
-
Glad this thread exists
-
will post elsewhere soon
-
Just need to hit double digits
-
So I don't look like a total noob
-
So I don't look like a total noob
No offense, but I personally think that post-burners are already noobs. Whatever that is.
-
I really need to hit 50
-
Just going to use this board
-
for what it's made for
-
just sandboxing a little bit
-
Got a trip ahead of me
-
need to have some archives
-
This whole "secret section"
-
Is making me post in a forum
-
which is something I never do.
-
And I mean never
-
although once I hit 50
-
I'll probably post when I have something
-
to say for a topic
-
as opposed to right now
-
I've just been posting stuff
-
like "you tell em!"
-
stuff that doesn't
-
progress a topic
-
but isn't off-topic either
-
kind of a "topic neutral" post
-
Very glad that this topic exists
-
as much as I feel it's ridiculous
-
to have a secret section
-
I understand the importance
-
of 1) having people get their feet wet on the forums
-
and 2) not letting any schlub with an email address use up tons of bandwith in the secret section
-
at the very least, schlubs have to spend a chunk of time
-
posting topic-neutral posts
-
or flying through this thread
-
just seven more
-
6 now, and I'll make it to the holy land
-
Just posting a few more
-
then no more forum spam
-
I swear, just solid posts
-
After these last 2
-
and we're finished with this race to 50.
-
ok
-
Here I go again
-
Let's put a couple of these out
-
It's like Twitter but with less content
-
I can do this!
-
SO i'm watching this documentary about the making of Heaven's Gate
-
Oh that Cimino!
-
Ugh, I can't do this...I'm boring myself
-
I might need to jump on board with this thread. We'll see.
-
two more.
-
This felt like cheating.
-
so I hear when you get to your two thousandth post you finally,
-
I got to 300 posts. Where's the set of steak knives that I was promised?
-
42
-
43 - Told myself I wouldn't do this
-
44
-
45 - I think 50 is Mayor isn' it?
-
46
-
47 - Future civilizations will have no understanding of this
-
48
-
49 - I still feel empty about this
-
Phew, there it is
-
Enjoy your downloads.
-
The sad part is I already had the ability. I just needed to be part of the club.
-
Yeah, it's done wonders for my self-esteem.

Shadow? Does this have something to do w/ Alec Baldwin?

Well that didn't work.

Hi guys, I'm Vini. I'm this kid who discovered Scharpling and Wurster at a punk store in DC when they played it there. I found it so hilarious that I bought The Art of the Slap. Ugh, I can't find any Scharpling and Wurster albums in my neck of the woods (Boston). Anyway, I just wanted to say hi.

Insane Clown Posse is an American hip hop duo from Detroit, Michigan. The group is composed of Joseph Bruce and Joseph Utsler, who perform under the respective personas of the wicked clowns Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope. Insane Clown Posse performs a style of hardcore hip hop known as horrorcore and is known for its elaborate live performances. The duo has earned two platinum and three gold albums. According to Nielsen SoundScan, the entire catalog of the group has sold 6.5 million units in the United States and Canada as of April 2007.[1]
-
Originally known as Inner City Posse, the group introduced supernatural- and horror-themed lyrics as a means of distinguishing itself stylistically. The duo founded the independent record label Psychopathic Records with Alex Abbiss as manager, and produced and starred in the feature films Big Money Hustlas and Big Money Rustlas. They formed their own professional wrestling federation, Juggalo Championship Wrestling, and later collaborated with many famous hip hop and rock musicians.
-
The themes of Insane Clown Posse and other acts on Psychopathic Records center on the mythology of the Dark Carnival, which the duo claim is a spiritual force that has revealed a series of stories known as Joker's Cards. These stories each offer a specific lesson designed to change the "evil ways" of listeners before "the end consumes us all." Insane Clown Posse has a dedicated following, often referred to by the group as Juggalos and Juggalettes.
-
Joseph Bruce (Violent J) and Joseph Utsler (Shaggy 2 Dope) met in Oak Park, a suburb on the North border of Detroit, Michigan. Along with Utsler's brother, John, and friend, Lacy, they wrestled in backyard rings that they had built themselves.[2]
In 1989, Joseph Bruce, as Jagged Joe, Joseph Utsler, as Kangol Joe, and John Utsler, as Master J, released the single titled "Party at the Top of the Hill" under the name of JJ Boys, but the group did not pursue a serious career in music.[3] Poverty and a difficult home life drove Bruce to move in with Rudy "The Rude Boy" Hill in the ghetto of River Rouge, a residential neighborhood in the industrial southwest side of Detroit.[4]
-
Feeling a sense of home and belonging, Bruce formed a gang called Inner City Posse, which was composed of Joseph Utsler, Rudy Hill, other friends of Bruce, and a number of other connections he had made in Southwest Detroit.[4] Bruce was jailed for ninety days in 1989–1990 for death threats, robbery, and violating probation;[5] this experience convinced him to reduce his involvement in gang life.[5] Bruce began his professional wrestling career after getting out of jail, and it was at his first show that he met Rob Van Dam and Sabu, two other first-timers with whom he became very good friends.[5] During this time Bruce brought Utsler backstage with him, and all four became close friends.
-
Bruce became frustrated with the backstage politics of the wrestling business and began searching for another career.[5] Back on the streets, Bruce began listening to hip hop with Utsler and with Utsler's brother, John. The trio performed at local night clubs, using the stage names Violent J, 2 Dope, and John Kickjazz, under the name of their gang, Inner City Posse.[3] Seeing a need for a manager, Bruce's brother Robert recommended his friend and record store owner Alex Abbiss, who established the Psychopathic Records record label with the group in 1991. Later that year the group released the self-produced EP entitled Dog Beats.[6] Growing popularity in the local music scene turned negative for the group's gang, which became the target of growing violence. After receiving jail sentences, the group members abandoned gang life.[5]
-
In late 1991, the group invested more money into production than was covered by returns. The group decided that its gangsta rap style was the cause of the problem: Most emcees at the time used similar styles, making it difficult for Inner City Posse to distinguish itself stylistically.[7] Referring to local rapper Esham's acid rap style, Bruce suggested the band adapt this genre, in a bid to have Detroit represent acid rap, much as Los Angeles represented gangsta rap. The group agreed, but not to copying the style of Esham closely. Instead, they suggested using horror-themed lyrics as an emotional outlet for all their negative life experiences. They were also unanimous in deciding not to rap openly about Satan, which Esham often did.[7]
-
After the change in musical style, the group decided it needed a new name. Utsler suggested keeping the "I.C.P." initials to inform the community that Inner City Posse was not defunct, an idea to which the group agreed.[7] Several names were considered before Bruce recalled his dream of a clown running around in Delray, which became the inspiration for the group's new name: Insane Clown Posse. The other members agreed, deciding that they would take on this new genre and name, and would all don face paint due to the success of their former clown-painted hype man.[7]
Upon returning home that night, Bruce had a dream in which spirits in a traveling carnival appeared to him—an image that would become the basis for the Dark Carnival mythology detailed in the group's Joker's Cards series.[7]
-
The group began recording their debut album, Carnival of Carnage, with producer Chuck Miller. After recording only three songs for US$6,000 with Miller, Alex Abbiss made his first major managerial move by finding another producer, Mike E. Clark.[8] The group finished recording the album with Clark, who continued to work with them throughout their career. The album featured appearances from local rappers, including Esham and Kid Rock.[6] Just weeks prior to the release of their album, John left the group because he felt that it was "taking up too much of [his] life."[8] When Bruce and Utsler attempted to call a meeting to talk about the issues, John did not attend.[8]
-
Carnival of Carnage was released on October 18, 1992, with distribution within a 120-mile (190 km) radius of Detroit.[8] Allmusic reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine compared the group's performance on the album to "a third-rate Beastie Boys supported by a cut-rate Faith No More, all tempered with the sensibility that made GWAR cult heroes—only with [...] more sexism and jokes that [...] wind up sounding racist."[6] The follow-up EP, Beverly Kills 50187, sold well and gained a larger audience. During a live performance of the song "The Juggla", Bruce addressed the audience as Juggalos, and the positive response resulted in the group using the word thereafter.[9] The word has been the subject of criticism from both Ben Sisario of Rolling Stone and Allmusic's Erlewine, who suggested the term is similar to the racial slur jigaboo.[6][10]
-
The group's second studio album, Ringmaster, was released on March 8, 1994, and its popularity enabled the group to sell out larger nightclubs across Detroit.[9] Because Bruce and Utsler made reference to the Detroit-produced soft drink Faygo in their songs, they "figured it would be cool to have some on stage with [them]."[11] During a concert in 1993, Bruce threw an open bottle of Faygo at a row of concertgoers who were giving them the finger. After receiving a positive response, Bruce and Utsler have since continued to spray Faygo onto audiences.[11] A subsequent national tour increased sales of the album,[9] earning Ringmaster a gold certification.[12] The group's second EP, The Terror Wheel, was released on August 5, 1994. One of the songs from the EP, "Dead Body Man", received considerable local radio play.[9] The same year marked their first "Hallowicked" concert, which has since continued annually on Halloween night in Detroit.[9]
-
Riddle Box
In 1995, Bruce and Utsler attempted to obtain a contract with a major record label. The duo eventually signed a contract with the short-lived Jive Records sub-label Battery Records,[9] which released the group's third studio album, Riddle Box, on October 10, 1995.[13] After Battery/Jive Records showed little interest in promoting the album, Insane Clown Posse funded the promotion of Riddle Box independently. This effort led the group to Dallas, Texas, where it persuaded several music retail stores to stock the album. Sales averaged 1,500 copies per week as a result.[14]
-
The Great Milenko
Manager Alex Abbiss negotiated a contract with the Walt Disney Company-owned label Hollywood Records, which reportedly paid US$1 million to purchase the Insane Clown Posse contract from Battery/Jive/BMG Records.[15] The group started recording its fourth studio album, The Great Milenko, in 1996, during which Disney requested that the tracks "The Neden Game," "Under the Moon," and "Boogie Woogie Wu" be removed. Disney also asked that the lyrics of other tracks be changed, threatening to not release the album otherwise.[16][17] Bruce and Utsler complied with Disney's requests, and planned to go on a national tour with House of Krazees and Myzery as their opening acts.[16]
-
During a music store autograph signing, Insane Clown Posse was notified that Hollywood Records had recalled the album within hours of its release,[16] despite having sold 18,000 copies and reaching #63 on the Billboard 200.[18][19] The group was also informed that its in-store signings and nationwide tour had been canceled, commercials for the album and the music video for "Halls of Illusions" (which had reached #1 on The Box video request channel) were pulled from television, and that the group was dropped from the label.[16] It was later revealed that Disney was being criticized by the Southern Baptist Convention at the time because of Disney's promotion of "Gay Days" at Disneyland, in addition to presiding over the gay-themed television sitcom Ellen. The Convention claimed Disney was turning its back on "family values."[20] Although Abbiss told the press that Disney had stopped production of The Great Milenko to avoid further controversy, Disney claimed instead that the release of the album was an oversight by their review board, and that the album "did not fit the Disney image" because of its "inappropriate" lyrics,[21] which they claimed were offensive to women.[22]
-
After the termination of the Hollywood Records contract, Insane Clown Posse signed a new contract with Island/PolyGram Records, which agreed to release the album as intended.[17][23] Entertainment Weekly music critic David Browne gave the record a C-minus rating: "[With] its puerile humor and intentionally ugly metal-rap tunes, the album feels oddly dated."[18] The Great Milenko was certified platinum with over 1.5 million copies sold.[12] One of the group's first projects with Island Records was an hour-long documentary titled Shockumentary, which aired on MTV. The station initially refused to play the documentary, but Island Records persuaded them to air it as a personal favor.[23] Shockumentary helped increase album sales from 17,000 to 50,000 copies per week.[23] Island also rereleased the group's first two albums.

Nationwide tour with House of Krazees and Myzery
Two days after the ECW program, Insane Clown Posse began its rescheduled nationwide tour with House of Krazees and Myzery. Their first concert, held in Orlando, Florida, was hand-picked by Insane Clown Posse and free to the public.[24] Halfway through the tour, Brian Jones of House of Krazees had a fallout with his band members. Jones left the group, forcing House of Krazees to quit the tour.[24]
The success of the tour enabled Bruce and Utsler to purchase new houses both for each other and for their families.[23] Bruce even told his mother to quit her job because he would pay her expenses.[25]
-
Eminem feud
In late 1997, Bruce took Myzery to St. Andrew's Hall. Eminem, then an unknown local emcee, approached Bruce and handed him a flyer advertising the release party for The Slim Shady EP. The flyer read, "Featuring appearances by Esham, Kid Rock, and ICP (maybe)."[25] Bruce asked why Eminem was promoting a possible Insane Clown Posse appearance without first contacting the group. Eminem explained, "It says 'maybe.' Maybe you will be there; I don't know. That's why I'm asking you right now. You guys comin' to my release party, or what?"[25] Bruce, upset over not being consulted, responded, "Fuck no, I ain't coming to your party. We might have, if you would've asked us first, before putting us on the fuckin' flyer like this."[25] Eminem took Bruce's response as a personal offense, subsequently attacking the group in radio interviews. Bruce and Utsler responded later in 1999 by releasing a parody of Eminem's "My Name Is" entitled "Slim Anus". Barbs between Insane Clown Posse and Eminem continued.[26]
-
The House of Horrors Tour
One month after ICP's Strangle-Mania Live, Insane Clown Posse began their second nationwide tour, "The House of Horrors Tour", with Myzery added as one of the opening acts. While searching for the second opening act, Bruce received a telephone call at his home from former House of Krazees members Jamie Spaniolo and Paul Methric, who told Bruce that the group was officially disbanded and asked to be on the tour.[25] Spaniolo and Methric provided a demo tape containing three songs: "2nd Hand Smoke", "Diemotherfuckdie", and "How Does It Feel?"[25] Bruce was extremely impressed, and immediately had a contract drafted with Psychopathic Records for the new group to sign. Bruce, Spaniolo, and Methric agreed on the band name Twiztid. The House of Horrors Tour thus featured Insane Clown Posse, with opening groups Twiztid, Myzery, and Psycho Realm.[25]

Legal troubles
On November 16, 1997, Bruce was arrested on an aggravated battery charge after allegedly striking an audience member thirty times with his microphone at a concert in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Bruce was held for four hours before being released on US$5,000 bail.[27] The January 1998 issue of Spin magazine ran a four-page cartoon lampooning Insane Clown Posse and Juggalos, claiming that the group was offensive "not for their obscenity, but for their stupidity." Spin likened Insane Clown Posse's stage act to "a sort of circus karaoke" and portrayed the group's fans as overweight suburbanites. On the group's website, Bruce responded to the article by stating, "I could give a fuck less."[28]
After a show in Indianapolis, Insane Clown Posse's tour bus stopped at a Waffle House in Greenfield, Indiana. When a customer began to harass Spaniolo and Bruce, a fight broke out between the customer and all of the bands' members.[25] Months later on June 4, 1998, Bruce and Utsler pleaded guilty to misdemeanor disorderly conduct charges (reduced from battery) in an Indiana court and were fined US$200 each. Members of Twiztid, Myzery, and Psycho Realm were charged with battery.[29] The group's tour was briefly derailed in January 1998, when their tour bus drifted off a highway and down an embankment, leaving Frank Moreno of Psycho Realm with a concussion. As a result of the accident, Insane Clown Posse postponed two shows scheduled for Cleveland, Ohio, on January 22 and January 23, but honored their promise to perform on January 25 and January 26.[30]

Mainstream success (1998–2000)
Panic attacks
On April 19, 1998, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Bruce suffered a panic attack during a performance and was carried off stage.[31] Bruce, who later recalled being completely "out of it",[31] found scissors and cut off his dreadlocks.[31] After suffering another panic attack once he returned home, Bruce opted to spend three days in a Michigan mental health program.[31] Insane Clown Posse later cancelled the last two weeks' worth of dates on its United States tour,[31] but subsequently launched their first European tour.[32][33]

The Amazing Jeckel Brothers
By late 1998 over one million copies of The Great Milenko had been sold,[34] and Insane Clown Posse was ready for its fifth album, The Amazing Jeckel Brothers. Working with Mike E. Clark and Rich "Legs Diamond" Murrell, Bruce and Utsler developed their album with the highest of hopes. The group was known nationally, but were not taken very seriously. Hoping to receive the respect Bruce and Utsler felt they deserved, they planned to feature well-known, respected rappers on their album.[34] Bruce stated outright that he wanted to involve Snoop Dogg and Ol' Dirty Bastard. They paid Snoop Dogg US$40,000 to appear on the song "The Shaggy Show." Snoop Dogg also helped them contact Ol' Dirty Bastard, who was paid US$30,000 for his appearance. Ol' Dirty Bastard recorded his track in a matter of two days; however, his recording consisted of nothing more than him rambling about "bitches."[34] It took Bruce and Utsler a week to assemble just four rhymes out of his rambling, and had to re-record the track and title it "Bitches."[34] Finally, Insane Clown Posse contacted Ice-T, who charged them only US$10,000.[34] The group felt that Ice-T's song did not belong on the album, and was instead released on a later album, Psychopathics from Outer Space.[34]
To help increase their positive publicity, the group hired the Nasty Little Man publicity team.[34] The team set up a photo shoot for Insane Clown Posse that was to appear on the cover of Alternative Press magazine in Cleveland. On the set of the photo shoot, a member of the publicity team approached Bruce and explained that in the song "Fuck the World", the lyric that stated "Fuck the Beastie Boys and the Dalai Lama" needed to be changed.[34] Insulted, Bruce exclaimed that his music would not be censored again—referring to Disney's previous requirement of censure.[34] Nasty Little Man told Bruce that the Beastie Boys were not only clients of the company but also personal friends, and the Beastie Boys told the company to make Bruce change the lyric.[34] In response, Bruce fired Nasty Little Man and asked its team to leave the photo shoot.[34]
The Amazing Jeckel Brothers was released on May 25, 1999, and reached #4 on the Billboard album charts,[35] and has since been certified platinum by the RIAA.[12] Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave the album a "four out of five stars" rating, stating that "[Insane Clown Posse] actually delivered an album that comes close to fulfilling whatever promise their ridiculous, carnivalesque blend of hardcore hip-hop and shock-metal had in the first place".[36] Rolling Stone writer Barry Walters gave the album a "two out of five stars" rating, writing that "no musical sleight of hand can disguise the fact that Shaggy and J remain the ultimate wack MCs."[37] At the same time as The Amazing Jeckel Brothers' release, Island Records merged with Def Jam Records. It quickly became apparent to Bruce and Utsler that Def Jam Records had no interest in them.[34] Eminem, who had begun to gain mainstream success, insulted Insane Clown Posse in interviews, tours, and the song "Till Hell Freezes Over."[34]
-
Big Money Hustlas
On Insane Clown Posse's previous tour (The House of Horrors Tour), they had watched the movie Big Ballers.[34] The group as well as Twiztid loved the video. After Insane Clown Posse finished its The Amazing Jeckel Brothers album, Bruce and Utsler decided to create their own movie, Big Money Hustlas, with the same low-budget comedy style as Big Ballers. Island Records gave them US$250,000 to begin work on the movie.[34] Bruce and Utsler were contacted by John Cafiero, who said that he was a fan of Insane Clown Posse, and offered to direct the movie.[34] Insane Clown Posse asked Mick Foley to appear in the movie as "Cactus Sac", a parody of his "Cactus Jack" persona. Cafiero retained the Misfits, Fred Berry, and, at Bruce's request, Harland Williams.[34] The script was written by Bruce, and filmed in New York City.[34] Bruce played a crime boss and Utsler portrayed a police detective.[38][39] The stage crew members, which showed their dislike for Insane Clown Posse, were a source of contention. Despite the crew striking twice, the movie was filmed in two months.[34]ß

Woodstock 1999
While on "The Asylum In-store Tour", Bruce and Utsler were informed by Abbiss that they were offered US$100,000 to perform at Woodstock 1999.[40] They were excited about the offer, as it indicated their impact on the music industry. Some people perceived participating in Woodstock 1999 was a sell-out for the group; however, Bruce and Utsler disagreed. As Bruce explains, "[Woodstock] sold out the mainstream style for us! Woodstock never came to us and asked us to change one fuckin' thing about us or our show! They wanted ICP just as ICP is, and nothing else. If that ain't fresh, then I don't know what the fuck is!"[40]

Amazing Jeckel Brothers Tour troubles
After Woodstock 1999, Insane Clown Posse began its "Amazing Jeckel Brothers Tour", along with musicians Biohazard, Krayzie Bone, Twiztid, Mindless Self Indulgence, and Coal Chamber.[40] Biohazard, Mindless Self Indulgence, Krayzie Bone, and Twiztid were well-received by audiences;[40] however, Coal Chamber was not. Insane Clown Posse fans were not purchasing tickets, as they did not like Coal Chamber.[40] For the three shows that Coal Chamber played, there were multiple ticket refunds.[40] Bruce and his brother, Rob, made the decision to eliminate Coal Chamber from the tour. After doing so, there were no tickets returned for the remainder of the tour dates.[40] Bruce and Utsler claimed that Coal Chamber had been removed from the tour because of equipment problems, but later revealed the true reason for their actions on The Howard Stern Show, which aired August 19, 1999.[40] Bruce continued by saying, "Nobody will tell you that, because everybody's afraid of your crumpet-ass bitch manager."[40] Later that night Stern contacted Bruce and Utsler, asking them to appear on his show the following day to talk with Coal Chamber's manager, Sharon Osbourne.[40]
Before the show went on air, Osbourne bet Bruce and Utsler US$50,000 that Insane Clown Posse's next album would not even sell 200,000 copies—a bet that Bruce accepted.[40] On air Osbourne informed Bruce and Utsler that Coal Chamber filed a lawsuit for breach of contract.[41] Osbourne stated that her group was to receive US$12,500 per show for a scheduled two-month package tour. Bruce reiterated that Coal Chamber's music did not appeal to Insane Clown Posse fans, and that ticket refunds decreased after Coal Chamber had been removed from the tour.[41] Osbourne then made public the bet with Bruce about Insane Clown Posse's next album, also stating that the duo would be subsequently dropped from their distributor. In Osbourne's words, "You're dead. Your career is over."[41] Bruce predicted that the group's next album would sell at least 500,000 copies;[41] however, the bet officially stood at 200,000 copies as agreed by both Bruce and Osbourne backstage.[40]

Bizzar and Bizaar
On January 10, 2000, Utsler collapsed on stage during a performance at the House of Blues in Chicago and was rushed to Northern Hospital. He was diagnosed with flu-related symptoms and abnormally low blood sugar. As a result of the incident, the following week's concert dates were rescheduled.[42] In June 2000, Eminem physically attacked Douglas Dail, an Insane Clown Posse affiliate, threatening him with a gun in the parking lot of a car audio store in Royal Oak, Michigan.[43] Eminem pleaded guilty to a lesser charge in exchange for two years probation and a US$10,000 fine.[44] In July 2000, Bruce and Utsler staged the first annual Gathering of the Juggalos at the Novi Expo Center in Novi, Michigan.[45] Described by Bruce as a "Juggalo Woodstock", the Gathering of the Juggalos was a three-day music festival that featured wrestling, games, seminars, contests, sideshows, and performances by all Psychopathic Records' artists.[45] Also featured at the event were Vampiro—who both wrestled and performed—Project Born, and Kottonmouth Kings.[45] On July 18, 2000, Big Money Hustlas was released direct-to-video.[34]
After the Gathering of the Juggalos, Insane Clown Posse set out to release its sixth and seventh studio albums—Bizzar and Bizaar—as a double album. While recording the albums, the duo had a fallout with long-time producer Mike E. Clark.[45] Bizzar and Bizaar were the last complete albums Clark would produce with Insane Clown Posse until his return in 2007. Bruce and Utsler flew to Denver, Colorado to add the finishing touches to the albums.[45] Bizzar and Bizaar were released on October 31, 2000, peaking at #20 and #21, respectively, on the Billboard 200.[46][47] In The New Rolling Stone Album Guide, Ben Sisario wrote that the albums "qualify as ICP's masterworks of both merchandising and music." Both albums were given a "three out of five stars" rating.[10] The combined sales were around 400,000 copies, exceeding the bet placed previously with Sharon Osbourne; Osbourne did not come through with payment for having lost the bet.[45]
Two music videos were released from the albums: "Tilt-a-Whirl," from Bizaar, and "Let's Go All The Way," from Bizzar. MTV agreed to play "Let's Go All The Way" on their network, airing it once in the late evening.[45] Bruce and Utsler decided to bombard Total Request Live (TRL) with requests for the video.[45] While on their "Bizzar Bizaar Tour," Insane Clown Posse posted on its website that December 8 was the day for their fans request the video. Bruce and Utsler named that day "The Mighty Day of Lienda," meaning "The Mighty Day of All or Nothing."[45] On December 8, Rudy Hill, Robert Bruce, Tom Dub, and six other Psychopathic Records employees and friends drove down to New York City. They were met by nearly 400 Insane Clown Posse fans standing outside in front of the TRL studio window, all with signs supporting the duo.[45] Thirty minutes before the show began, Viacom security guards and New York City police officers were dispatched to remove all the fans from the sidewalk.[45] When some fans, including Robert Bruce, refused to move because it was a public street and no other individuals were asked to move, they were assaulted.[45] All telephone requests for the video to be played were ignored, and Insane Clown Posse was never mentioned during the show.[45] MTV later informed Island Records that the heads of the network must choose the band first before it can become eligible to be featured on TRL.[45]

Independent releases (2001–present)
Bruce and Utsler left Island Records, signing a contract with D3 Entertainment to distribute every release on Psychopathic Records, which would remain independently funded, produced, and recorded.[48] Insane Clown Posse had their own studio built, called "The Lotus Pod."[45] In the spring of 2001, Insane Clown Posse's road manager William Dail was arrested in Omaha, Nebraska for allegedly choking a man who waved an Eminem t-shirt in front of the band. Dail was charged for misdemeanor assault and battery. The charges were reduced to a US$100 fine after he plead guilty to a lesser charge.[49][50] In a 2002 interview, Bruce stated that the rivalry between Eminem and Insane Clown Posse had ended.[51]
The second Gathering of the Juggalos was held from July 13–July 15 at the SeaGate Convention Centre in Toledo, Ohio.[45] The event featured the same activities as the first Gathering of the Juggalos, as well as guests such as Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Vanilla Ice, and Three 6 Mafia.[45] On June 15, 2001, Bruce was arrested in Columbia, Missouri for an outstanding warrant in St. Louis stemming from an incident in February 2001. That incident involved Insane Clown Posse allegedly attacking employees of a St. Louis radio station over disparaging remarks that a disc jockey made on the air. The police used several squad cars to detain Bruce, Utsler, and two associates a few miles from a venue where the group had completed a concert. Bruce was transferred to St. Louis the following day and released on bail without charge on June 18.[52]

The Wraith: Shangri-La
The face of the sixth Joker's Card is "The Wraith"—or simply, Death. The card featured two "exhibits", Shangri-La and Hell's Pit, which would each be given its own album.[53] On November 5, 2002, Insane Clown Posse released their eighth studio album, The Wraith: Shangri-La, where it is revealed that the hidden message of their music was always to follow God and make it to Heaven.[53] Ben Sisario criticizes the series' ending in the Rolling Stone Album Guide, writing "the whole thing was some bland divine plan [...] Is this man's final dis of God, or His of us?"[10] Some critics perceived the spiritual element of the storyline as a joke or a stunt. Allmusic writer Bradley Torreano wrote that "Even if it is a joke, it isn't a funny one, or even a clever one."[54] According to Bruce, "We went on an in-store tour right when the sixth Joker Card came out. It was the most moving thing we ever went through in our lives. All across the country, it had such an effect. People would come to the in-stores crying, thanking us. A very, very emotional time. [...] Some people might've been upset by that, but through our eyes all we did was touch a lot of people. We definitely wanted it to be something everlasting. Maybe a 19-year-old might not understand or like that ending now. But later, when he has four kids, he might think, 'That was the shit.'"[55]
The Wraith: Shangri-La debuted at #15 on Billboard's Top Independent Albums.[56] In September 2003, Insane Clown Posse was voted the worst band of any musical genre in Blender, with The Wraith: Shangri-La named as the group's worst album.[57] The magazine also gave the album a positive review for its "charming, good-natured idiocy."[58]
Insane Clown Posse went on the 75-date "Shangri-La World Tour", where they performed across the United States, Australia, and Europe.[53] Bruce and Utsler signed a new contract with Sony BMG's RED Distribution, and launched the Psychopathic Europe record label.[48]

Hell's Pit and post "Joker's Cards" era
Following the release of The Wraith: Shangri-La, Bruce admitted that he was considering not completing the production of Hell's Pit. He is quoted as describing Shangri-La as "the end of the road. It's the end of the Joker's Cards. After this I could do anything I want, for the rest of my life. The positivity was so unbelievable."[59] On August 31, 2004, Insane Clown Posse released their ninth studio album, Hell's Pit, the second exhibit of The Wraith, intended to warn listeners of the horrors of Hell. Bruce described the album as the darkest, most painful work he had ever done.[60] Two versions of the album were released, each containing a different DVD. One release featured a live concert and a twelve-minute music video for the song "Real Underground Baby", and another featured a short film for the song "Bowling Balls", which was the first 3-D film shot in high-definition video.[60]
On February 1, 2006, Insane Clown Posse fan Jacob D. Robida attacked individuals in a gay bar in New Bedford, Massachusetts with a handgun and a hatchet—a weapon featured in the logo of the group's record label, Psychopathic Records.[61][62] Robida had a swastika tattoo and flaunted Nazi insignias and paraphernalia on his website.[63] On February 5, Robida shot and killed a traffic officer during a routine stop. When police pulled Robida over during a later stop, he killed his girlfriend, Jennifer Bailey of Charleston, West Virginia, then opened fire on the police. Robida was shot twice in the head during the shootout with the police, and later died in the hospital.[62] On February 7, Insane Clown Posse released a statement on the Robida attacks. The group's manager Alex Abbiss extended Bruce and Utsler's condolences and prayers to the families of the victims, stating that "It's quite obvious that this guy had no clue what being a Juggalo is all about. If anyone knows anything at all about ICP, then you know that they have never, ever been down or will be down with any racist or bigotry bullshit."[64]

On October 21, 2006, Insane Clown Posse performed at one of twenty benefit shows organized by MySpace as part of the "Rock for Darfur" campaign to raise awareness of the War in Darfur and funds for the region's aid.[65] On March 20, 2007, Insane Clown Posse released their tenth studio album, The Tempest, which debuted at #20 on the Billboard 200 and sold nearly 33,000 copies in its first week.[12][66] In 2008, Bruce and Utsler starred in the film Death Racers. It was released direct-to-video on September 16, 2008 by The Asylum.[67] In December 2008, John Antonelli filed a lawsuit against the group after being struck by an unopened two-liter of Faygo during a performance at the Fargo nightclub The Hub, formerly known as Playmakers. Antonelli is seeking at least $50,000 in damages. The lawsuit also names the venue, Playmakers, as a defendant. An attorney for Playmakers states that only Bruce should be held liable.[68]
A prequel to Big Money Hustlas, entitled Big Money Rustlas, has begun filming, and will be in the western genre.[55] Bruce and Utsler plan to tour theaters around the country to screen the film before its DVD release.[55] Insane Clown Posse's next album, Bang! Pow! Boom!, will be released on September 1, 2009, and will be followed by extensive touring.[69][70]

Insane Clown Posse's performance style is often described as horrorcore hip hop, which "utilize shocking (and blatantly over the top) narratives to give an over-exaggerated, almost cartoon-like version of urban deprivation in Detroit", according to author Sara Cohen.[71] The group's early work features a raw, minimalistic sound, which later evolved into a more rock-oriented style.[72] The group's lyrics serve as morality tales,[7] with songs focusing on subjects such as cannibalism,[18] murder and necrophilia.[73] Insane Clown Posse's debut album, Carnival of Carnage, features a politically-oriented focus, criticizing elitism and prejudice against those who live in the ghetto,[74] while the album's liner notes criticize the Gulf War.[74] The group's lyrics have opposed racism, bigotry,[75] domestic violence, and child abuse.[76]
Insane Clown Posse has covered songs by Geto Boys,[77] Sly Fox,[78] and Above the Law.[79] Bruce and Utsler refer to the acid rap style of Esham as an influence on their own music,[7] while Bruce has expressed admiration for Pearl Jam[80] and Michael Jackson.[81] Kimberly Chun of the San Francisco Chronicle described Insane Clown Posse's musical style as a mixture of "dub, goth, metal, shock rock and hip-hop, with a WWF announcer's delivery and shuffling stoner beats thrown in for good measure."[82] Mike E. Clark's production for the group incorporates elements such as "carnival organ riffs, power chords and shotgun blasts [...] banjolike plucking and Van Halen-esque guitar squeals,"[37] while Bruce and Utsler sometimes alternate between rapping and screaming.[83] In his review of The Tempest, Allmusic's David Jeffries writes that Bruce and Utsler "[rap] in a carnival barker fashion that fits with their circus motif, their Insane Clown disguises, and Mike E. Clark's big top-inspired production."[84] Insane Clown Posse has influenced similar acts, such as Axe Murder Boyz,[85] Blaze Ya Dead Homie[86] and Boondox.[87]

Live performances
Faygo is often used in the group's concert performances.
Insane Clown Posse is known for their elaborate concert performances. In Marley Brant's Tales from the Rock 'n' Roll Highway, Bruce described a typical performance: "We toss out, kick out, and shoot out into the crowd about three to four hundred two-liters of Faygo at every show. [...] We bring with us monsters, dancing clowns, girls, trampolines, and pure and absolute madness to the stage. [...] Shaggy and I know that without all that crazy shit going on around us, we'd just be two more idiots walking back and forth, rapping on stage. [...] ICP's motto has always been 'Fuck keepin' it real: we just keep it entertaining.'"[11] Performances feature backdrops including, among other settings, a game show set and a cemetery.[88][89] Bruce stated, "We always have a different set, not only for Hallowicked but every tour we go out on. We've been around so long that we get to dig up the many cool sets that we used back in the day and then get to use them again on a national level. Something we might've done once in '94 at St. Andrew's Hall, we can go back again and now do it nationwide-style."[55]
-
On tour following the release of Carnival of Carnage, Insane Clown Posse was scheduled to perform at Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Michigan. After the group was announced by their manager, Alex Abbiss, Bruce remembers that "[w]e came out with no microphones or nothing; we were just right up in the people's faces. Shaggy and I were just fuckin' yelling over our own cassette. The people were staring at us in amazement and bewilderment. They must have been in shock and awe. We finished our two-song set, and the crowd [...] didn't cheer or boo. They just stood there, stunned."[11]
-
The group was unable to bring the large amounts of Faygo needed for their concerts to their European tours without a sales permit visa because customs believed that the group had intended to sell the soda at their concerts.[32] As a result, the group's European record label purchased similar quantities of another soda and created fake Faygo stickers to label the bottles. According to Bruce, "The craziness was this: they were not the regular two-liter bottles we're used to; they were some other amount [...] maybe one-and-a-half-liter bottles. Over there, they make their plastic bottles taller and thinner. [...] when you're doing what we do with them—that makes a world of difference."[11] During a performance in England, Bruce recounts that he "rocketed one of them bottles off my foot and that motherfucker shot straight up and out like a guided Patriot missile, right towards the disco ball high above the crowd. [...] The bottle nailed the disco ball, and [...] came falling down [...] on top of some English kid's head. [...] We must've knocked fifteen or twenty people flat-out cold on that tour [...] Shaggy and I both had black eyes and several injuries and bruises ourselves from them things hittin' us."[11]
-
Bruce and Utsler did not expect many of their fans to attend Woodstock 1999, and were surprised when thousands of people chanted "I-C-P! I-C-P!" as they waited for the group to perform.[40] Bruce told his stage crew that he would pay US$2,000 to each person who ran around the stage naked, and two people took up his offer. Insane Clown Posse also brought naked women on stage.[40] Bruce and Utsler felt that because the tickets to the event were over-priced, they needed to "give something back."[11] According to Bruce, "We brought along these big beach balls. We announced to the crowd that they each had a hundred dollars taped to them, and then we proceeded to kick about thirty of them into the crowd. Then we rolled out these bigger giant-ass beach balls and announced, 'These ones have five hundred bucks taped to them!' We booted a gang of them into the human sea."[11][40] Bruce also recounts that their set had multiple technical problems, and the audience was not allowed to get close to the stage, which made the duo feel less connected with them.[40]

Extreme Championship Wrestling (1997)
In August 1997, Bruce received a telephone call from friends Rob Van Dam and Sabu.[24] They asked if he and Utsler could appear on Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW)'s second pay-per-view (PPV) program, Hardcore Heaven. Bruce and Utsler were already fans of ECW, as Van Dam had been sending videotapes of the show to them since its first airing.[24] They agreed to appear and went to Florida to discuss the ECW program's content with Van Dam, Sabu, and Paul Heyman. Heyman was pleased that Bruce and Utsler were former wrestlers, which meant that they could surprise the crowd by taking bumps. Heyman also favored the idea of using Insane Clown Posse, because it was unlikely that anyone knew of the relationship the group had with Van Dam and Sabu.[24] Heyman presented his idea to Bruce and Utsler, who agreed to participate. Insane Clown Posse opened the ECW program by performing songs and exciting the crowd. Then Van Dam and Sabu, the main villains at the time, attacked Bruce and Utsler. The top fan favorite, The Sandman, came in and saved them by chasing away Van Dam and Sabu with his signature Singapore cane.[24]

ICP's Strangle-Mania Live (1997)
Being avid wrestling fans, Bruce and Utsler owned, and were fascinated by, the death match wrestling collection Outrageously Violent Wrestling from Japan. The duo decided to create a compilation of their favorite matches, recording their own sports announcing under the personas named "Handsome" Harley Guestella a.k.a 'Gweedo' (Utsler) and Diamond Donovan Douglas a.k.a. '3D' (Bruce).[25] The compilation video was released nationwide under the title ICP's Strangle-Mania. The video's success allowed Bruce and Utsler to host their own wrestling show, ICP's Strangle-Mania Live, to a sold-out performance at St. Andrew's Hall. The main event featured Insane Clown Posse versus The Chicken Boys, who were played by two friends of Bruce and Utsler.[25] With local wrestling booker Dan Curtis, other wrestlers such as Mad Man Pondo, 2 Tuff Tony, Corporal Robinson, King Kong Bundy, and Abdullah the Butcher were also booked on the show to wrestle in the same death match style as shown in ICP Strangle-Mania.[25]
-
World Wrestling Federation (1998)
In the summer of 1998, Insane Clown Posse received a telephone call from Jim Johnston of the World Wrestling Federation (WWF).[92] The WWF heard that Bruce and Utsler were fans of wrestling and asked them to perform the entrance theme for the wrestling group Oddities. The WWF also wanted Bruce and Utsler to appear on their SummerSlam pay-per-view (PPV) program in August 1998 and rap live while The Oddities entered the ring. Insane Clown Posse composed the song "The Greatest Show" and agreed to appear on the program. Once the duo arrived at the arena, they realized their wrestling dreams had come true; they had been contacted by wrestling's top company and were now set to appear on their PPV program at the company's most historic venue, Madison Square Garden.[92] Bruce and Utsler met backstage with various wrestlers, including the owner of the WWF, Vince McMahon, and his son, Shane McMahon. Bruce and Utsler paid Mick Foley, a wrestler with the WWF, his royalty payments from the ICP Strangle-Mania DVD, as Foley appeared in almost every match, and a friendship began among the three.[92] Bruce and Utsler were assigned to the locker room with Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker, who were to wrestle during the main event that night. The duo immediately felt the animosity of the locker room that had previously driven them away from wrestling.[92] Insane Clown Posse performed and were asked to return for the live broadcast of Monday Night Raw the following night. At the broadcast, Bruce and Utsler requested for more than just a rapping role; they wanted to wrestle. McMahon favored the idea and allowed them to participate.[92]
Insane Clown Posse was put in a feud with The Headbangers. In the first wrestling match, The Headbangers were stiff, throwing real punches and kicks.[92] In the rematch, a move was planned where The Headbangers would be flipped over by Bruce and Utsler. When the time came to flip over, however, The Headbangers refused to move, forcing Insane Clown Posse to genuinely flip them over and begin throwing punches.[92] Realizing that the match was getting too heated, McMahon ended the feud after that match.[92] Bruce and Utsler were put into other matches along with The Oddities. Vince Russo told Bruce and Utsler to "make it seem like you don't know anything about wrestling, and you guys keep choking and digging into their eyes".[92] During this time, Bruce and Utsler had no contract with WWF. They, however, did have an agreement that the WWF would occasionally play Insane Clown Posse commercials, and in return, Bruce and Utsler would wrestle for free.[92] Bruce and Utsler knew that airtime cost significantly more than any monetary compensation they would receive and were thus satisfied with the agreement. Bruce and Utsler were told they were to suddenly turn on The Oddities in their match against The Headbangers, then join them in beating up the group. They were also informed that their commercial would air the very next week, which had still not aired after three months of being involved with the WWF.[92] The next week Insane Clown Posse and The Headbangers had a match with Steve Austin. Backstage, Austin made it clear to Bruce and Thrasher that Thrasher would receive the first Stone Cold Stunner, after which Bruce would turn around and receive the second.[92] During the match, Austin gave Bruce the Stunner first, catching him off guard, thus having Bruce sell the move awkwardly. Although disappointed over the events during the match, Bruce and Utsler continued in hopes that McMahon would air the commercial as promised. Bruce and Utsler contacted Abbiss to inquire about the commercial and were informed that it was not aired. Given that McMahon failed to uphold his promise to air Insane Clown Posse's commercial, Abbiss recommended that Bruce and Utsler terminate their agreement with the WWF.[92]
-
Hellfire Wrestling (1998)
While involved with the WWF, Insane Clown Posse brought Dan Curtis with them. After leaving the WWF, Curtis suggested that Insane Clown Posse start its own promotion while continuing with its music. He came to Bruce's house each night to discuss ideas about the promotion. Curtis convinced Bruce to coordinate another Strangle-Mania Live show, to be followed by an eighty-city "Hellfire Wrestling" tour.[92] Curtis booked the talent and wrote the scripts. Strangle-Mania Live sold out the Majestic Theater in Detroit.[92] Two days after the show, Curtis was found dead in his apartment, due to a sudden diabetic problem.[92] The "Hellfire Wrestling" tour was subsequently canceled.
-
World Championship Wrestling (1999–2000)
Insane Clown Posse went on to wrestle a long stint in World Championship Wrestling, starting in 1999. The duo formed two stables. The first stable, The Dead Pool, consisted of Insane Clown Posse, Vampiro, and Raven; the second consisted of Insane Clown Posse, Vampiro, Great Muta, and Kiss Demon, known as The Dark Carnival.[92]
On August 9, 1999, Insane Clown Posse made their WCW debut on Monday Nitro in a six-man tag team match.[93] Insane Clown Posse and Vampiro defeated Lash LeRoux, Norman Smiley, and Prince Iaukea. At Road Wild 1999, Rey Mysterio, Jr., Billy Kidman, and Eddie Guerrero defeated Vampiro and Insane Clown Posse.[94] Insane Clown Posse continued to wrestle on Monday Nitro, defeating Public Enemy one week, and losing to Konnan and Rey Mysterio, Jr. another. At Fall Brawl 1999, the tag team of Rey Mysterio, Eddie Guerrero, and Billy Kidman again defeated Vampiro and Insane Clown Posse. On September 13, Insane Clown Posse defeated Lenny Lane and Lodi. Shaggy 2 Dope then went on a solo run for the WCW Cruiserweight Championship.
On the August 23, 2000 episode of Thunder, Great Muta, Vampiro, and Insane Clown Posse beat Tank Abbott and 3 Count.[95] Five days later, on Nitro, Insane Clown Posse and Vampiro defeated 3 Count, and the following week, Rey Mysterio, Jr. and Juventud Guerrera beat Insane Clown Posse. On September 25, Mike Awesome defeated Insane Clown Posse in a Handicap Hardcore match.[96]
-
Juggalo Championshit Wrestling (1999–2006)
On December 19, 1999, Bruce and Utsler created their own wrestling promotion, Juggalo Championshit Wrestling (now known as Juggalo Championship Wrestling). That night, the duo defeated the team of two Doink the Clowns to become the first ever JCW Tag Team Champions.[97] The event was taped and released as JCW, Volume 1. Commentary was provided by Bruce and Utsler under their '3D' and 'Gweedo' announcing personas.[97] In 2000, Insane Clown Posse and Evil Dead defeated The Rainbow Coalition, and the match was featured on JCW, Volume 2.[98] In 2003, Insane Clown Posse defended, and retained, their JCW Tag Team Championships against Kid Cock (a parody of Kid Rock) and Feminem (a parody of Eminem).[99] The match was featured on JCW, Volume 3.
The duo continued to wrestle for JCW, which could only be seen at live events until the 2007 start of JCW SlamTV!.
-
Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (2004)
On January 21, 2004, Insane Clown Posse appeared on an episode of the weekly NWA Total Nonstop Action PPV. The duo were shown partying in the crowd alongside the juggalos in attendance.[100] In the main event of the night, which featured Jeff Jarrett going against El Leon, Jarrett and El Leon were fighting in the crowd when Insane Clown Posse sprayed Faygo in Jarrett's eyes.[100] The following week, Insane Clown Posse were interviewed in the ring by Mike Tenay. The duo explained that they were fans of TNA, and that they wanted to be a part of the promotion themselves. As they started making (kayfabe) negative remarks toward Jeff Jarrett, Glenn Gilberti and David Young interrupted. When Gilberti tried to convince the duo to apologize to Jarrett, Insane Clown Posse chased Gilbertti and Young out of the ring before challenging the team to a match for the next week.[101]
On February 4, Insane Clown Posse defeated Glen Gilbertti and David Young. Later that night, Scott Hudson interviewed Insane Clown Posse, and the duo announced that they would face whoever Jeff Jarrett threw at them next in a "Juggalo Street Fight".[102] Insane Clown Posse won against the team of Glen Gilbertti and Kid Kash on February 18.[103] Two weeks later, Insane Clown Posse announced that they would take part in a "Dark Carnival Match" the next week against Glen Gilbertti and any partner he chooses.[104] The following week, Insane Clown Posse and 2 Tuff Tony took on Glen Gilbertti, Kid Kash, and David Young. "The Alpha Male" Monty Brown made his TNA return, and cost Insane Clown Posse and 2 Tuff Tony the match.[105] During their stint in TNA, Insane Clown Posse brought the company its largest paying crowds in history.[106] After the duo left, they remained close with the company.
On March 17, 2006, Insane Clown Posse hosted and booked TNA's first ever house show, which took place in Detroit, Michigan.[106] The duo defeated Team Canada members Eric Young and Petey Williams.[90]
-
Independent Circuit (2004–present)
Insane Clown Posse continues to appear at various promotions in the independent circuit such as the now defunct Xtreme Pro Wrestling and Firestorm Pro. From 2005-2007, Utsler was unable to compete due to surgery. During this time, Bruce would normally be seen teaming with Corporal Robinson and 2 Tuff Tony, collectively known as The Hatchet Boys.
Juggalo Championship Wrestling (2007–present)
In 2007, JCW launched SlamTV!. With it came the first broadcast of JCW since the three initial DVDs. Bruce returned to commentary as Diamond Donovan Douglas, and Utsler returned as "Handsome" Harley Guestella. 3D and Gweedo announced in an episode of SlamTV! that Insane Clown Posse had been stripped of the JCW Tag Team Championships due to them not defending the title.[107] At the first annual Bloodymania, JCW's premier wrestling event, Insane Clown Posse teamed with Sabu to defeat Trent Acid and The Young Alter Boys w/ Annie Social the Nun.[108]

Juggalo World Order
Main article: Juggalo World Order
Evansville Invasion also marked the debut of the Juggalo World Order (JWO), consisting of Corporal Robinson, Scott Hall, and Violent J.[109] At that years Hallowicked After Party, on October 31, Shaggy 2 Dope was introduced as a member of the group. After the main event of the night, special guest referee Nosawa ripped off his referee shirt to reveal that he too was a member of the JWO.[109] At Bloodymania II, Kevin Nash teamed with Scott Hall, and proclaimed himself a member of the group. The 2008 Hallowicked After Party saw the JWO induct its newest member, 2 Tuff Tony.
On November 9, the Juggalo World Order (Scott Hall, Shaggy 2 Dope, Violent J, 2 Tuff Tony, and Corporal Robinson) "invaded" Total Nonstop Action Wrestling's Turning Point PPV by purchasing front row tickets to the event. They proceeded to promote their faction by flashing their JWO jerseys, which each member had on, before being removed from the building.[110][111] The group expressed interest in "invading" WWE at its 2009 Royal Rumble PPV, but were unable due to filming commitments for Big Money Rustlas in Los Angeles.[112] They have also shown interest in "invading" Ring Of Honor and Ultimate Fighting Championship.[113]

Why do you need extra posts, fellow Space Champion?

Yes, ex-TRG, don't be greedy - you only started in Februrary!

I think I need to spend less time on this board. Look how many posts I average per day. What kind of a life do I have?
-
Look at it this way: you make me feel laconic.

I'm impatient

Your posts I consider legitimate, though, aside from this thread. Patience, young grasshopper.

That is what you said and also a bit edgy thus making me obliging and cool right? Maybe I have been wasting myself on punk message boards all these years. I could be a break out talent.

I'm wondering if anyone, like myself, gets these post burns on their RSS reader? So if somebody does 20 posts, you go through 20 on there. I'm REALLY not complaining, since I get so many anyway it's not a big deal. I was just wondering if I was the only one.

Yes
this, among other moral questions it raises, is why I've refrained from post burning. Looks like I'll actually have to contribute!
-
Don't feel guilty about it. I did a few of them, mainly so that I could get to the Downloads section without wasting peoples time with unimportant posts. I don't want to discourage people from post burning, cause it's better than the alternative.

I suppose you're right. I'd still feel a bit dirty, though. I'll probably end up with a decent balance of somewhat quality contributions and one word post burns.

You can access the Downloads section of the board, which is a pretty nice treasure chest. However, if you can be just a little patient and make real posts to get to 50, you'll probably feel a lot better about yourself.

What does my ex-wife and a person who just stole a rabbit and doesn't know how to get away with the crime have in common? They both really ought to dye their hare!

Good one! How true!

Happy to contribute to the cause.

What does my ex-wife and a large, sectional sofa bought from the Levitz outlet store have in common? They both have a distinct, pugent odor that permeates my apartment and all of my clothes and can't be removed no matter how many Lysol baths are given!
-
What's the difference between my ex-wife and the DVD of Spiderman 2? The DVD of Spiderman 2 totally kicks ass! And my ex-wife does not totally kick ass.
-
Why did my ex-wife cross the road? Because she resembles a chicken!
-
Nice callback to the clucking.
-
Nice callback to the clucking.
Yes, I learned the art of the "callback" in my years as a comedy writer for various humor shows.
-
It was particularly impressive because the clucking joke mystified you earlier.
-
What's the difference between a pair of sneakers and my ex-wife? A pair of sneakers will become dirty and blood-stained if they walk all over people whereas my ex-wife will walk over people and she will experience no ill side effects.
-
What does my ex-wife and my abnormally large head have in common? They both have had a hand in destroying my self-esteem!
-
It was particularly impressive because the clucking joke mystified you earlier.
"Mystify" is a strong word. Let's just say I thought it was a pretty weak joke. Not like all of the other very strong ones that I've written tonight.
-
Certainly, your experience as a seasoned jokester has been shining through otherwise.
-
What does my ex-wife and a Chinese buffet have in common? Jorge Espinoza eats both of them!

-
What does my ex-wife and a vintage fixie have in common? They both have been ridden by numerous hipsters!
-
What does my ex-wife and a Juggalo have in common? They both wear too much makeup! And they are probably both tweaking at this very moment!

-
(Oy...I'm getting punchdrunk....almost to 50...)
So folks, what do you think my wife and a lawnmover have in common? They both have a guy named Jorge Espinoza on mounting them!
-
You're almost there, benkrok! (You have brought out the cheerleader manquée in me.)
-
What does a window and my ex-wife have in common? You can see right through them!

-
What's the difference between my wife and this enormous glass of booze I'm drinking right now? The enormous glass of booze helps to ease the pain whereas my ex-wife only helps to exacerbate it.
-
I'd like to dedicate this second to last post to Sarah, who kept me going through thick and thin. There was a point around post 20 where I thought to myself "benkrok, you are a class AAA idiot, making up ex-wife jokes for nobody's enjoyment when you should be donning your jammies and going to bed". She egged me on, so blame her for the awfulness of posts 20-50.
-
Why did my ex-wife cross the road? To stomp on the remains of my foolish heart!
-
I feel so used. 2 hours of non-stop horrible jokes and I don't see any surprises after 50 posts...maybe I'll just start posting ex-wife jokes in random other threads till I get whatever treasure is due to me.
-
I have rarely been so proud. Congratulations, benkrok. Was it worth it? (Whoops, just saw you already answered that. Still want to thank me?)
-
Sarah, I saw the quality of the downloads section and am re-thinking my dedication to posting to 50. However! I am a recent Best Show listener and have been screaming "Heave Ho!" at everyone the last few days. So I'll probably be around the forums for a while. Thanks a ton for the cheerleading...
-
Think of it this way: you brightened a dark Lubec evening. Not what you hoped for, but something, anyway.
-
If you were even slightly entertained, then it's all worth it. I went to college up in Maine and it's a beautiful place (though Lubec seems awfully remote).
-
Jason, please sticky this thread.
Excelsior!

Consider it worth it, then.
Which of Maine's august establishments of higher learning did you attend?

Such a promising start. Pity.
-
What are you talking about?!?! I got to 50! That's quite an accomplishment, I think...50 horrible, original jokes in about 2-3 hours. I see that all I got was access to the downloads. I was expecting some kind of welcoming committee or a plaque of some sort.
-
I believe I made my appreciation of your accomplishment apparent the other night. My comment had to do with the fact that you completed that heroic task and then . . . nothing.
But perhaps you needed some rest.
-
Well, my big plan was to listen to the show live last night, but my power went out (we had windstorms in the Pacific NW) and didn't come back on till 1 in the morning. I was going to do the whole forum/chat/scharpgasm thing but nature had her way with me instead...

My car is such a pile of garbage that even my ex-wife didn't ask for it for it in the settlement!

My car is so old that I don't have a satellite radio, a CD player or even a tape deck. I have a player piano!

My car is so old that it's first oil change was done by Judah of Maccabee! And the miracle is that it's still running! Happy Hanukah!

#1 - The idea of a "Group Dump" is simply the most awful thing I've ever heard ever. Period. I spend most of my waking life trying desperately to hide the fact that I poo. The concept of getting together and revelling in it is horrifying.

i sit in on a floor in an office with about 25 people.
for the past 30 minutes, about 12 of these people have been recommending (nay - YELLING ACROSS DESKS) BBQ places to each other, along with BBQ tips for "at home" BBQing.
so fucking annoying.
thank you for allowing me to vent.
-
BBQ is DELICIOUS! I don't see the problem.
-
Do not eat barbecue outside the state of North Carolina. I had some 30 miles from the state border in Virginia the other night and it's just not the same.
Or, eat it but know that you are not eating real barbecue. Ha!
Now you hipsters know how it feels when you're talking about "James Retarded" or whatever.
-
long way to go to 50 :(

The rule for me is:
The closer you are to a big city then the poorer the quality of BBQ.
Oh and you also have to be living in the south for this to apply at all.
I do like Carolina BBQ the best - THEY GET THE SAUCE RIGHT! Georgia doesn't really have a unique stamp on BBQ, we just blended memphis with carolina style and refuse to take sides.

Myst really scared me as a child and I have no idea why. I thought it was weird to see real people in a video game... it's uncanny.

It was, like, a joke. He really does look like Sirrus in that picture though.

Icepants.....I challenge you to a game of "pencil break"!!!

How does one play "pencil break"?
-
I know I wasn't invited, but as a mere sapling, I need to burn a little.
-
Although were I a literal sapling, burning would be a long way from my tiny mind.
-
Trees can't read!
-
As far as you know.
-
Damn, hadn't thought of that. I think - therefore I fall in the forest with nobody listening?
-
Oh god this is gonna take a while.
-
As far as you know.
Dammit, Lubec, you're using up all the posts.
-
All my posts could be considered post-burning posts, when you come right down to it. En route to where, I do not know.
-
After this one I'll be halfway to WHATEVER the fake goal is.

COME, FAKE GOAL, COME!

Ehhhhhhhv'ry goooooal is a fake goooooal.

How does one play "pencil break"?
The rules for playing pencil-break are simple.
requirements:
1-Two players. (generally two children between the ages of 5 and 12 who think math class is "soooooo boring")
2-Two number two pencils. (traditional wooden kind with the aluminum eraser holders at the ends.)
3-A badass attitude.
Rules:
1-Players decide who goes first. Flip a coin if indecisive.
2-Defending player must hold pencil horizontal with both hands firmly gripped at each end. (no flimsy grips)
3-Attacking player must then "snap" their pencil's metal part onto defenders perfectly held pencil.
4-Repeat between players. First pencil to break loses.
Disqualifications:
1-Flimsy grips. If pencil gets knocked out of hand, you are disqualified.
2-No snapping opponent's fingers. (I'm talking to you Dirk Woellenger!)
3-No kindergarten pencils. (Y'know, the big fat pencils? I don't know if they even make these anymore. If your opponent also happens to have a kindergarten pencil, then you may proceed to taking "pencil-break" to a whole new level.)
4-No setting pointer finger directly on metal band and forcefully striking downward. Doing this automatically breaks opponent's pencil and lands you the rep of "doo-doo face cheater".
Now that we all know the rules....LET'S BREAK!

Hockey... a sport I know nothing about and a distinctly terrible band.
-
I like hooky, though.
-
School taught me one, which I've forgotten, and tried to extinguish the other, which remains with me to this day.
-
I like "ditch" better than "hooky". Hooky sounds like something by which Richie Cunningham might be tempted. Kelly Leak effin' ditches.

Random, unrelated fact/short anecdote.

And Fredericks, that video is horrific.
(Please don't now tell me that it's you/a family member and pledge to murder me.)
-
Why do you say it's horrific?
-
Why do you say it's horrific?
1 - The moustache
2 - Boring and repetitive melody
3 - Bad rhymes - bed, heads, said, misled...
4 - The way that the guy's head wobbles about
5 - Medicore cover of a boring song with a point that's been made better before.
That said, I don't totally hate it, I would just never watch it again.
Horrific was perhaps too harsh.
-
The way that the guy's head wobbles about?
That WAS me. I made the video because Cockburn didn't have one. Now, I'm pissed and I'm gonna beat your ass!
-
Horrific was perhaps too harsh.
Yes, it was. It made me watch the thing to the bitter end, damn you.
-
Haha, I will think twice before raging against basically inoffensive videos.
Fredericks - I do not believe for one minute that that was you. I always imagined your singing voice to be more of the Tom Waits c.2010 school.

I can never read this thread title without interpreting it as some sort of Post-Burning-Man introspective thread, then I go "wait, FOTs and Burning Man.. that's, um, odd?", then I remember the thread purpose and hence its title.
-
i also just got the new mgmt although i wasnt a big fan of the first one (mostly because i heard those singles non stop senior yr of college). surprised by how rocky it is. still reserving judgment overall though until i take another listen.
-
AND the marshall crenshaw s/t LP for fifty cents! currently my favorite album
-
I thought all the MGMT singles stunk pretty much.
Saw the New Pornographers the other night and had one too many beers on an empty stomach (total of three to be exact) but it was a very fun experience. New album's great too.
-
Although, unexpectedly because it's not normally my sort of thing, Flying Lotus is probably my album of the year so far.
-
Well, that or Titus Andronicus.

Or TL/RX.

...
-
Oh, I misunderstood. From the subject I thought this involved violence against witches. What a relief. Carry on.
-
is this real?
-
eh, whatever.
-
embarrassing things i've actually said ... out loud ... in life. till i reach 50 posts.
-
"have you lost weight?"
[follow-up]: "well ... i hope everything is okay."
-
"whose leg is this in my bed?"
-
[on an airplane, taking off]: "excuse me, sir ... where are we?"
-
"i was supposed to get off the plane at that last stop."
-
"i have a sleep disorder."
-
"Jorge, huh? what's your real name?"
(it was Jorge.)
-
"magic, schmagic."
-
"my name is jen, and worms eat my garbage."
-
"is there a severed head under my pillow, or am i having a night terror?"
-
"liz lemon wishes."
-
"today, a VA patient volunteered to set me up with 'the neighbor boy,' who is 'strong & helpful, but just a little mentally handicapped.' that's the vibe i'm putting out there."
-
"hi. i've seen you & your puppet around the neighborhood the past couple years but never said 'hi.'"
-
"whadya mean, 'why'?! your puppet freaked me out!"
-
"listen, you both seem very nice. but one time i was trying to study at the cafe, and you were brushing Hobo's hair at the table next to mine for, like, an hour. i'm not proud of it, but it freaked me out. but now i see you are both very nice."
-
Keep going, Jen.
-
"i don't care how cute your dog is: you are not supposed to be within 50 feet of me."
-
[to Todd Barry, after asking where he's staying while in town, b/c i've always wondered where people who play at ___ club stay]: "oh yeah, that's a super nice hotel."
-
"i mean ....i've never seen the inside of the hotel rooms. i've only ever been in the lobby. and the bar. but i assume the rooms are nice."
-
[still talking to Todd Barry. can't possibly shut my face up.] "err ... i've had a couple beers. i was nervous to talk to you & accidentally got tipsy." [ran away, realizing it sounded like i was throwing myself at him.]
-
"sir, i am not going to fight you."
-
"thank you for 'supporting my lifestyle,' but straining the chunks of beef out of my bowl does not make it 'vegetarian stew,' Nanny."
-
"wanna play a fun game? it's called Guess What I'm Thinking."
-
"i know what you mean: i wake up with all kinda random bruises, too."
-
"i'm not lazy. i have narcolepsy without cataplexy. duh."
-
[to a camper]: "you are ruining this trip for everyone."
(sounds terrible, but she was 16, and she was ruining the trip. on purpose.)
-
"don't think i'm above slapping your sunburn."
-
"well, i can never go to that hardware store again."
-
"i have way more compost than i can possibly use & was thinking of giving it as gifts. do you think people would be touched or offended by me giving them a bag of worm $#!+?"
(both a quote & a real question.)
-
[censored for inappropriate content. let's just say having Garfunkel & Oates songs in your head is not great if you are prone to absentmindedly singing aloud. at work.]
-
"apparently i have no gag reflex."
-
the last 2 are dedicated to Mr. Pervison dere. real things said while preparing a male patient for a skin biopsy of a ... sensitive area. "down dere."
-
"this is a really hard area to biopsy. hard? i mean ... difficult."
-
[administering local anesthetic]
"you're going to feel a little prick followed by significant burning."
i never say "prick." i always say "poke." not that either is ideal in this situation, but ... i'll stop talking now. as i should've then.
ta-da.
(please don't ban me.)

My predictions are usually way off though, and it looks a close game to call. FG separates the teams at the end? Maybe even some OT so we can finally see that new rule in play?

Connecting the two ends together will, in effect, form a loop. The looped string is then scrunched up in one's hand and various parts of the piece of string will inevitably intersect and touch each other. By leaping at the intersections to a different section of the string, Sam can travel to a different date within his own lifetime.

I'm not talking about a Beatle's song,
written 100 years before I was born.

but who's got the real anti-parent culture sound?

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.

They call me 'The Pork King,' they don't know how much I enjoy it.
-
Liberal attitudes towards the other are characterized both by respect for otherness, openness to it, and an obsessive fear of harassment. In short, the other is welcomed insofar as its presence is not intrusive, insofar as it is not really the other. Tolerance thus coincides with its opposite. My duty to be tolerant towards the other effectively means that I should not get too close to him or her, not intrude into his space—in short, that I should respect his intolerance towards my over-proximity. This is increasingly emerging as the central human right of advanced capitalist society: the right not to be ‘harassed’, that is, to be kept at a safe distance from others

-
In this manner they met a tiny, blue-skinned humanoid creature in white clothing called a "Schtroumpf", followed by his numerous peers who looked just like him, with an elderly leader who wore red clothing and had a white beard.
-
The Smurfs' community generally takes the form of a cooperative, sharing and kind environment based on the principle that each Smurf has something he or she is good at, and thus contributes it to Smurf society as he or she can. In return, each Smurf appears to be given their necessities of life, from housing and clothes to food without using any money in exchange. This has led to the Smurfs being labeled as communists.

Mankind is divided into rich and poor, into property owners and exploited; and to abstract oneself from this fundamental division; and from the antagonism between poor and rich means abstracting oneself from fundamental facts.

When I look up and down that line (outside Carlo's Bakery) -- you ever look at what's on that line? Families. Moms, dads, kids, grandparents, aunts, uncles. My show brings families together whether it's to wait in line to buy cake or gather around and watch 'Cake Boss.' Whatever I do to bring families together is special to me, it really touches my heart.

I have a very assertive way. It's wake up, move your ass, or piss off home.

There are huge numbers of young women out there who know how to mix cocktails but can't cook to save their lives, whereas men are finding their way into the kitchen in ever growing numbers.

I maintain standards and I strive for perfection. That level of pressure is conveyed in a very bullish way and that's what cooking is all about.

Thanks for offering this Post Burning option! I really want to find out about these treasures and didn't want to annoy everyone else on the forum.

I really do love TBS, so I feel kind of bad about burning posts...

-
I'd never say anything mean on the forum, BTW.
-
Or channy, even though I'm not sure what that is.
-
Is being channy like being mean, or is it something else?
-
Actually, this does kind of feel like I'm "getting my feet wet."
-
I posted on the new person's official thread, but no one said hi to me.
-
I totally get that of course.
-
Of course there's no way someone would want to reply to every new person, right?
-
I started listening to TBS two years ago last month.
-
Totally changed how I look at comedy.
-
I'd say the worst thing that's come out of it has been I've become a little more cynical.
-
About movies, music, TV, comedy in general.
-
But that's been the only downside.
-
Otherwise it's effected my life positively.
-
Also I'm training for a marathon.
-
It's amazing to have the podcast on my iphone on the long runs.
-
I wrote Tom an email about that, thanking him.
-
No response from him, but again, I totally get it.
-
I wonder how many emails he gets per week?
-
Probably about 100 more than he can read.
-
Or respond to.
-
I have a podcast, but who doesn't?
-
I loved Tom's fake podcast a couple weeks ago, Podcastin.
-
Did he do more of it on the last installment?
-
I haven't heard it yet.
-
I hope he keeps that going.
-
Totally took me down a notch, but I loved it.
-
Almost at 50, the promised land.
-
I wonder what the treasures are.
-
Hopefully plenty of Tom and Wurster calls.
-
Maybe past premiums that I missed?
-
That would be truly amazing.
-
I was out of the country on this last one.
-
So I won't be getting the DVD.
-
I'm seriously bummed about that.
-
If it were available again in the treasure chest, even if it's years from now, this is all worth it.
-
Got the premium a couple years ago, the one with the Dogmo bag.
-
One of my most prized possessions.
-
Ok, that's 50! Thanks for giving me a place to burn these! Love the show!
-
Might as well start here... I trust no one will really be reading this.
-
You calling me Odysseus?
-
GomerNumberTwo, you're cuter than a button. Or a bug.
-
June Bug? Lady Bug? Lace Bug? Assassin Bug? Bed Bug?
-
I don't know. What is the cutest bug? Lady bug is the obvious choice--too obvious. And, really, I don't like bugs very much, so I'm not a good judge. When I was seven or so, however, I had two pet millipedes, Frederick and George, that I smuggled into the country from Canada, and I found them charming enough. So I'll say millipede.
-
We both know cuteness is oh so subjective, but here are my votes for the insect cutie pageant:
Cutest - 1st Place: June Bug , 2nd Place: Lady Bug
"Beautifulest" - Lace Bug
Scariest - Assassin Bug
Mr. Congeniality - Bed Bug
(My real name is Frederick, so I'm ever so honored I once shared names with your millipede.)
-
Which is the bug most likely to succeed? Oh, and which is the funniest?
-
Funniest? I'll go with Pill Bug. Most successful? Summer nights it seems to be mosquitos.
(I knew a Belgian actress who pronounced it "mystique-os", and I enjoyed it so much I never corrected her.)

I would like to take this post to tell fontasy how much I love his username and how much joy it gives me every time I read it. I may need to try to isolate a clip of Mr. Simmons saying it and change my text message notification sound to it.
-
well
-
I kind of regret
-
my avatar name
-
"fontasy"
-
I decided to use it as a fun goof
-
I meant as a clever reference to the show
-
but now I realize its just that
-
it doesnt say much about me, and it kind of ruins the fun of the super fun "fontasy" phrase
-
I didn't mean to co-op the fun phrase. It was an initial reference, not knowing everyone around here would get it instantly, I thought I was being clever. so yeah. Im going to drop the fontasy name

What happens when I get to 50 posts? I am new here.
-
Great show these past couple weeks.
-
Not sure how I continue to miss info like when the marathon is, where i should pledge and how i can get the dvd.

I had a recent Best Show caller (and local musician) come in to my work a few weeks back and I decided it would be far too weird to say, "Didn't you call the Best Show last week?" and just left well enough alone.
There, that felt good to get off my chest.

I didn't mean that to seem like I was fishing for further interest, honest. It was a neat East Bay/Best Show moment that I figured was best suited for sharing in this particular forum.
But since I did bring it up... Ajax from Oakland came into my library. I recognized him as the Wrong Words' bassist, and after brief chit-chat I made the FOT connection. Like I said, in the moment it didn't seem right to blurt out, "hey, I heard your call on the Best Show!"
-
[ it didn't seem right to blurt out, "hey, I heard your call on the Best Show!"
Heavens why not?
-
Heavens why not?
I suppose in the moment I got a bit shy, what with me being at work and knowing the guy from solely his band (going to see them play or buying their records) and his call to the Best Show.
Also - hey Fredericks! I'm a big fan of your MIND Thing. Keep up the good work.

Hopefully I don't earn "Jerk of the Week" honors all burning these here posts. Just on the off chance, though, I'll preemptively award myself...
You're The Jerk Of The Week (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thE-d0B0loA#)
P.S. I'm not really that big of a jerk.
-
There is an element of procrastination going on here, as I am desperate not to get to work on that final paper for school.
-
I have to start soon, though, because it's gotta be done at some point tonight. And then that's a wrap on the semester.

it's gotta be done at some point tonight.
Do that, then celebrate by posting and posting and...

I had no idea there was a reason to get to 50! Everything suddenly makes sense! If I were shameless, I would break each of these into 3 different posts.
-
But I'm not shameless.
-
I, on the other hand, will take the shameless approach
-
Maybe not all the way to fifty
-
But I'm gonna do this for a bit
-
this is a post burning thread after all
-
Fredericks I'm a huge fan of your calls but am afraid to listen to your Mind thing podcast
-
I'm afraid that once I delve in it will change me irrevocably
-
Any words of wisdom?
-
Any words of wisdom?
I'm not Fredericks, but I will say that his MIND Thing is well worth checking out. I recommend the Metaphors and Mathematics episode; it's good stuff.
-
Any words of wisdom?
Yes!
-
I enjoy it as often as I can get my ears on it.
-
"Mind Thing" is the perfect name for it
-
That is to say, I really enjoyed the shows I listened to

As seems to be standard protocol lately, they opened with Contraption/Soul Desert; it was pretty much one punch in the face (metaphorically speaking) in a row after that. Lots of folks dancing and going bananas, which is both unusual for and great to see at a San Francisco show.

There were even a few posters up for the 2012 Bruise Cruise. This year's lineup looks fantastic. I salute anyone who makes the trip, it should be incredible.

Speaking of posters... someone made some nice silkscreened posters for the show:
(http://secretserpents.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/nyeweb.jpg?w=450&h=553)
I usually don't mess with posters and whatnot, but it being New Years and the show being so good I figured why not...
-
So anyway...
-
Enough about New Years Eve, right?
-
I am gearing up to find an elusive "'Friday Only' street cleaning" parking spot in my neighborhood.
-
Meaning you get that spot and only have to move your car for street cleaning on Friday.
-
Most spots are Tuesday/Thursday or Monday/Wednesday/Friday.
-
The Friday-only spots are therefore highly sought-after, relative to run of the mill parking places.
-
You gotta go out later to find them, though.
-
That NYE show must have been pretty awesome
-
I hope you found the coveted friday-only spot
-
Don't mind me, just going to burn a few more posts here...
-
Just want to see what happens when I hit the 50 post mark
-
... probably nothing
-
But I'm gonna push forward anyways
-
So that Winter Classic was a pretty solid game...
-
I'm especially excited to see the locker room happenings from the game on the next episode of 24/7
-
And the reactions to that pretty lame diving call, and the last second penalty shot
-
Ok I'm done, please forgive me
-
Ok I'm done, please forgive me
Whatchaget?
-
I wish I had a clever Fredericks-ian response, but all I'll say is "IT'S A SECRET"
-
I hope you found the coveted friday-only spot
I did, as a matter of fact. And that rock show was awesome. Thee Oh Sees live are about as good as it gets.
-
Slow going over here.
-
Not post burning if you post twice a week in here.
-
Post simmering?

I assume 'channy' is a reference to acting in a 4chan style? If not I apologize but it does seem perfect for that if not.

I guess I understand when someone in this thread has a postcount of 58 or 68--they reached their goal--but it's sort of sad when someone has a postcount of 14 in the first ten pages of this thread.

It makes me wonder, did they fail at something so trivial it requires the least amount of effort imaginable? Or did they get distracted by weightier matters and forget to return in order to accomplish what they set out to do?

There's absolutely no point in doing this, sir.
-
So large a number of works on Harmony already exists that the publication of a new treatise on the subject seems to call for explanation, if not for apology.
-
The present volume is the outcome of many years' experience in teaching the theory of music, and the author hopes that it contains sufficient novelty both in plan and in matter to plead a justification for its appearance.
-
Most intelligent students of harmony have at times been perplexed by their inability to reconcile passages they have found in the works of the great masters with the rules given in the text-books.
-
If they ask the help of their teacher in their difficulty, they are probably told, "Bach is wrong," or " Beethoven is wrong," or, at best, "This is a licence."
-
No doubt examples of very free part-writing may be found in the works of Bach and Beethoven, or even of Haydn and Mozart; several such are noted and explained in the present work.
-
But the principle must surely be wrong which places the rules of an early stage of musical development above the inspirations of genius!
-
Haydn, when asked according to what rule he had introduced a certain harmony, replied that "the rules were all his very obedient humble servants"; and when we find that in our own time Wagner, or Brahms, or Dvorak breaks some rule given in old text-books there is, to say the least, a very strong presumption, not that the composer is wrong, but that the rule needs modifying.
-
In other words, practice must precede theory.
-
The inspired composer goes first, and invents new effects; it is the business of the theorist not to cavil at every novelty, but to follow modestly behind, and make his rules conform to the practice of the master.
-
It is a significant fact that, even in the most recent developments of the art, nothing has yet been written by any composer of eminence which a sound theoretical system cannot satisfactorily account for; and the objections made by musicians of the old school to the novel harmonic progressions of Wagner are little more than repetitions of the severe criticisms which in the early years of the present century were launched at the works of Beethoven.
-
It is from this point of view that the present volume has been written.
-
The rules herein given, though in no degree inconsistent with the theoretical system expounded, are founded, not upon that, nor on any other abstract system, but upon the actual practice of the great masters; so that even those musicians who may differ most widely from the author's theoretical views may still be disposed to admit the force of practical rules supported by the authority of Bach, Beethoven, or Schumann.
-
The system of theory propounded in the present volume is founded upon the dictum of Helmholtz, quoted in Chapter II. of this work (42), that "the system of Scales, Modes, and Harmonic Tissues does not rest solely upon unalterable natural laws, but is at least partly also the result of aesthetical principles, which have already changed, and will still further change with the progressive development of humanity."
-
While, therefore, the author follows Day and Ouseley in taking the harmonic series as the basis of his calculations, he claims the right to make his own selection, on aesthetic grounds, from these harmonics, and to use only such of them as appear needful to explain the practice of the great masters.
-
Day's derivation of the chords in a key from the tonic, dominant, and supertonic is adhered to, but in other respects his system is extensively modified, its purely physical basis being entirely abandoned.
-
It will be seen in Chapter II. (§ 44) that by rejecting altogether the eleventh and thirteenth notes of the harmonic series, and taking in their place other notes produced among the secondary harmonics, the chief objection made by the opponents of all scientific derivation of harmony that two of the most important notes of the scale, the fourth and the sixth, are much out of tune has been fully met.
-
In the vexed question of the minor tonic chord, Helmholtz is followed to a considerable extent; but Ouseley's explanation of the harmonic origin of the minor third is adopted.
-
Truth is many sided; and no writer on harmony is justified in saying that his views are the only correct ones, and that all others are wrong.
-
No such claim is made for the system herein set forth; but it is hoped that it will at least be found to be intelligible, perfectly consistent with itself, and sufficiently comprehensive to explain the progressions of the advanced modern school of composers.
-
It has been thought desirable to separate as far as possible the practical from the theoretical portions of this work.
-
The latter are therefore printed in smaller type; and it will be found advisable for beginners, who may take up this work without any previous knowledge of the subject, to omit at least Chapters II. and III., dealing with the Harmonic Series and Key or Tonality, until some considerable progress has been made in the practical part of the volume.
-
The exact point at which the student will do well to return to the omitted portions will depend upon his progress and his general intelligence, and must be left to the discretion of the teacher.
-
In the practical part of the work an attempt has been made to simplify and to codify the laws.
-
With a view of effecting these objects, many rules now obsolete, and contravened by the daily practice of modern writers, have been altogether omitted, and others have been greatly modified; while the laws affecting the chords, especially the higher discords the ninths, elevenths, and thirteenths have been classified, and, it is hoped, materially simplified.
-
It is of the utmost importance that students who wish to master the subject should proceed steadily and deliberately.
-
For example, a proper understanding of the chords of the eleventh will be impossible until the student is quite familiar with the chords of the ninth, which in their turn must be preceded by the chords of the seventh.
-
The learner's motto must be, "One thing at a time, and that done thoroughly."
-
In preparing the exercises a special endeavour has been made to render them interesting, as far as possible, from a musical point of view.
-
With this object they are, with a few exceptions, written in the form of short musical sentences, mostly in four-bar rhythm, illustrating the various forms of cadence.
-
To stimulate the pupil's imagination, and to encourage attempts at composition, many exercises are in the form of double chants or hymn tunes.
-
Each bass can, of course, be harmonised in several different positions; and the student's ingenuity will be usefully exercised in trying to write as melodious an upper part as possible for these little pieces.
-
Not the least interesting and valuable feature of the volume will, it is believed, be found in the illustrative examples, considerably more than 300 in number.
-
These have been selected chiefly, though not exclusively, from the works of the greatest masters, from Bach and Handel down to the present day.
-
Earlier examples are not given, because modern harmony may be said to begin with Bach and Handel.
-
While it has been impossible without exceeding reasonable limits to illustrate all the points mentioned, it is hoped that at least no rule of importance has been given without quoting some recognised author in its support.
-
It may at all events be positively said that, had want of space not prevented their quotation, examples might have been found to illustrate every rule laid down in the volume.
-
It was originally intended to have included in the present work chapters on Cadences, and on Harmonising Melodies.
-
The volume has, however, extended to so much larger dimensions than was at first contemplated, that these chapters, which belong rather to practical composition than to harmony in its strict sense, have been reluctantly omitted.
-
It is intended to follow the present work by a treatise on Composition, in which these and similar subjects will be more appropriately dealt with.
-
The author desires to acknowledge the valuable assistance he has received in the preparation of his work, first and foremost from his son, Louis B. Prout, to whom he is indebted for a very large number of the illustrative examples, and who has also written many of the exercises.
-
Valuable aid has also been received from the late Rev. Sir Frederick Ouseley, with whom, down to the time of his lamented death, the author was in frequent correspondence on the subject of this work.
-
To his friend, Dr. Charles W. Pearce, also, the author must express his thanks for much generous interest and many most useful suggestions, as well as for his kind assistance in revising the proof-sheets of the volume.
-
It would be unreasonable to expect that the present work will meet with universal approval; but it may at least claim to appeal to teachers and students as an honest attempt to simplify the study of harmony, and to bring it down to date.

What makes it more boring (or more funny?) is that the BPB article seems to be pretty tongue-in-cheek. That is, what he is saying is not really what he is saying. I think. And the other guy's (quite delayed) reaction to BPB's less than earnest remarks itself seems to be not exactly transparent in intent either.

Jack Kirby (August 28, 1917 – February 6, 1994),[1] born Jacob Kurtzberg, was an American comic book artist, writer and editor regarded by historians and fans as one of the major innovators and most influential creators in the comic book medium.
-
Kirby grew up poor in New York City and learned to draw cartoon figures by tracing characters from comic strips and editorial cartoons. He entered the nascent comics industry in the 1930s and drew various comics features under different pen names, including Jack Curtiss, ultimately settling on Jack Kirby. In 1940, he and writer-editor Joe Simon created the highly successful superhero character Captain America for Timely Comics, predecessor of Marvel Comics. During the 1940s, Kirby, generally teamed with Simon, created numerous characters for that company and for National Comics, the company that later became DC Comics.
-
After serving in World War II, Kirby returned to comics and worked in a variety of genres. He produced work for a number of publishers, including DC, Harvey Comics, Hillman Periodicals and Crestwood Publications, where he and Simon created the genre of romance comics. He and Simon also launched their own short-lived comic company, Mainline Publications. Kirby ultimately found himself at Timely's 1950s iteration, Atlas Comics, soon to become Marvel. There, in the 1960s, he and writer-editor Stan Lee co-created many of Marvel's major characters, including the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and the Hulk. Despite the high sales and critical acclaim of the Lee-Kirby titles, however, Kirby felt treated unfairly, and left the company in 1970 for rival DC.
-
There Kirby created his Fourth World saga, which spanned several comics titles. While these series proved commercially unsuccessful and were canceled, the Fourth World's New Gods have continued as a significant part of the DC Universe. Kirby returned to Marvel briefly in the mid-to-late 1970s, then ventured into television animation and independent comics. In his later years, Kirby, who has been called "the William Blake of comics",[2] began receiving great recognition in the mainstream press for his career accomplishments, and in 1987 he was one of the three inaugural inductees of the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame.
-
Kirby was married to Rosalind "Roz" Goldstein in 1942. They had four children, and remained married until his death from heart failure in 1994, at the age of 76. The Jack Kirby Awards and Jack Kirby Hall of Fame were named in his honor.
-
Early life (1917–1935)
Jack Kirby was born Jacob Kurtzberg on August 28, 1917, on the Lower East Side of Manhattan in New York City, where he was raised.[3] His parents, Rose and Benjamin Kurtzberg,[3] were Austrian Jewish immigrants, and his father earned a living as a garment factory worker.[4] In his youth, Kirby desired to escape his neighborhood. He liked to draw, and sought out places he could learn more about art.[5] Essentially self-taught,[6] Kirby cited among his influences the comic strip artists Milton Caniff, Hal Foster, and Alex Raymond, as well as such editorial cartoonists as C. H. Sykes, "Ding" Darling, and Rollin Kirby.[6] He was rejected by the Educational Alliance because he drew "too fast with charcoal", according to Kirby. He later found an outlet for his skills by drawing cartoons for the newspaper of the Boys Brotherhood Republic, a "miniature city" on East 3rd Street where street kids ran their own government
-
At age 14, Kirby enrolled at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, leaving after a week. "I wasn't the kind of student that Pratt was looking for. They wanted people who would work on something forever. I didn't want to work on any project forever. I intended to get things done".[8]
-
Kirby joined the Lincoln Newspaper Syndicate in 1936, working there on newspaper comic strips and on single-panel advice cartoons such as Your Health Comes First!!! (under the pseudonym Jack Curtiss). He remained until late 1939, when he began working for the movie animation company Fleischer Studios as an inbetweener (an artist who fills in the action between major-movement frames) on Popeye cartoons. "I went from Lincoln to Fleischer," he recalled. "From Fleischer I had to get out in a hurry because I couldn't take that kind of thing," describing it as "a factory in a sense, like my father's factory. They were manufacturing pictures."[9]
-
Around that time, the American comic book industry was booming. Kirby began writing and drawing for the comic-book packager Eisner & Iger, one of a handful of firms creating comics on demand for publishers. Through that company, Kirby did what he remembers as his first comic book work, for Wild Boy Magazine.[10] This included such strips as the science fiction adventure "The Diary of Dr. Hayward" (under the pseudonym Curt Davis), the Western crimefighter feature "Wilton of the West" (as Fred Sande), the swashbuckler adventure "The Count of Monte Cristo" (again as Jack Curtiss), and the humor features "Abdul Jones" (as Ted Grey) and '"Socko the Seadog" (as Teddy), all variously for Jumbo Comics and other Eisner-Iger clients.[11] He first used the surname Kirby as the pseudonymous Lance Kirby in two "Lone Rider" Western stories in Eastman Color's Famous Funnies #63-64 (Oct.-Nov. 1939).[11] He ultimately settled on the pen name Jack Kirby because it reminded him of actor James Cagney. However, he took offense to those who suggested he changed his name in order to hide his Jewish heritage.[12]
In the summer of 1940, Kirby and his family moved to Brooklyn. There, Kirby met Rosalind "Roz" Goldstein, who lived in the same apartment building. The pair began dating soon afterward.[13] Kirby proposed to Goldstein on her eighteenth birthday, and the two became engaged.[14
-
irby moved on to comic-book publisher and newspaper syndicator Fox Feature Syndicate, earning a then-reasonable $15-a-week salary. He began to explore superhero narrative with the comic strip The Blue Beetle, published from January to March 1940, starring a character created by the pseudonymous Charles Nicholas, a house name that Kirby retained for the three-month-long strip. During this time, Kirby met and began collaborating with cartoonist and Fox editor Joe Simon, who in addition to his staff work continued to freelance. Simon recalled in 1988, "I loved Jack's work and the first time I saw it I couldn't believe what I was seeing. He asked if we could do some freelance work together. I was delighted and I took him over to my little office. We worked from the second issue of Blue Bolt through... about 25 years."[15]
-
After leaving Fox and landing at pulp magazine publisher Martin Goodman's Timely Comics (later to become Marvel Comics), Simon and Kirby created the patriotic superhero Captain America in late 1940. Simon cut a deal with Goodman that gave him and Kirby 25 percent of the profits from the feature, as well as salaried positions as the company's editor and art director, respectively.[16] The first issue of Captain America Comics, released in early 1941, sold out in days, and the second issue's print run was set at over a million copies. The title's success established the team as a notable creative force in the industry.[17] After the first issue was published, Simon asked Kirby to join the Timely staff as the company's art director
-
With the success of the Captain America character, Simon felt that Goodman was not paying the pair the promised percentage of profits, and so sought work for the two of them at National Comics (later renamed DC Comics).[16] Kirby and Simon negotiated a deal that would pay them a combined $500 a week, as opposed to the $75 and $85 they respectively earned at Timely.[19] Fearing that Goodman would not pay them if he found out they were moving to National, the pair kept the deal a secret with Stan Lee while they continued producing work for the company. Goodman eventually learned of the deal, and Kirby and Simon, convinced that Lee had revealed their plans, left after completing their work on Captain America Comics #10
-
Kirby and Simon spent their first weeks at National trying to devise new characters while the company sought how best to utilize the pair.[21] After a few failed editor-assigned ghosting assignments, National's Jack Liebowitz told them to "just do what you want". The pair then revamped the Sandman feature in Adventure Comics and created the superhero Manhunter.[22][23] In July 1942 they began the Boy Commandos feature. The ongoing "kid gang" series of the same name, launched later that same year, was the creative team's first National feature to graduate into its own title.[24] It sold over a million copies a month, becoming National's third best-selling title.[25] They also scored a hit with the homefront kid-gang team, the Newsboy Legion, featuring in Star-Spangled Comics.[26]
-
Kirby married Roz Goldstein on May 23, 1942
-
With World War II underway, Liebowitz expected that Simon and Kirby would be drafted, so he asked the artists to create an inventory of material to be published in their absence. The pair hired writers, inkers, letterers, and colorists in order to create a year's worth of material.[25] Kirby was drafted into the U.S. Army on June 7, 1943.[28] After basic training at Camp Stewart, near Savannah, Georgia, he was assigned to Company F of the 11th Infantry Regiment.[29] He landed on Omaha Beach in Normandy on August 23, 1944, two-and-a-half months after D-Day,[29] though Kirby's reminiscences would place his arrival just 10 days after.[28] Kirby recalled that a lieutenant, learning that comics artist Kirby was in his command, made him a scout who would advance into towns and draw reconnaissance maps and pictures, an extremely dangerous duty.[30]
-
Kirby and his wife corresponded regularly by v-mail, with Roz sending "him a letter a day" while she worked in a lingerie shop and lived with her mother[31] at 2820 Brighton 7th Street in Brooklyn.[32] During the winter of 1944, Kirby suffered severe frostbite on his lower extremities and was taken to a hospital in London, England, for recovery. Doctors considered amputating Kirby's legs, but he eventually recovered from the frostbite.[33] He returned to the United States in January 1945, assigned to Camp Butner in North Carolina, where he spent the last six months of his service as part of the motor pool. Kirby was honorably discharged as a Private First Class on July 20, 1945, having received a Combat Infantryman Badge and a European/African/Middle Eastern Theater ribbon with a bronze battle star.[34][35]
-
Simon arranged for work for Kirby and himself at Harvey Comics,[36] where, through the early 1950s, the duo created such titles as the kid-gang adventure Boy Explorers Comics, the kid-gang Western Boys' Ranch, the superhero comic Stuntman, and, in vogue with the fad for 3-D movies, Captain 3-D. Simon and Kirby additionally freelanced for Hillman Periodicals (the crime fiction comic Real Clue Crime) and for Crestwood Publications (Justice Traps The Guilty).[11]
-
The team found its greatest success in the postwar period by creating romance comics. Simon, inspired by Macfadden Publications' romantic-confession magazine True Story, transplanted the idea to comic books and with Kirby created a first-issue mock-up of Young Romance.[37] Showing it to Crestwood general manager Maurice Rosenfeld, Simon asked for 50% of the comic's profits. Crestwood publishers Teddy Epstein and Mike Bleier agreed,[37] stipulating that the creators would take no money up front.[38] Young Romance #1 (cover-date Oct. 1947) "became Jack and Joe's biggest hit in years".[39] Indeed, the pioneering title sold a staggering 92% of its print run, inspiring Crestwood to increase the print run by the third issue to triple the initial number of copies.[40] Initially published bimonthly, Young Romance quickly became a monthly title and produced the spin-off Young Love—together the two titles sold two million copies per month, according to Simon[41]—later joined by Young Brides and In Love, the latter "featuring full-length romance stories".[40] Young Romance spawned dozens of imitators from publishers such as Timely, Fawcett, Quality, and Fox Feature Syndicate.[39] Despite the glut, the Simon & Kirby romance titles continued to sell millions of copies a month, which allowed Kirby to buy a house for his family in Mineola, Long Island, New York[39] in 1949, which would be the family's home for the next 20 years, working out of a basement studio 10 feet in width, which the family referred to as "The Dungeon".[42]
-
Bitter that Timely Comics' 1950s iteration, Atlas Comics, had relaunched Captain America in a new series in 1954, Kirby and Simon created Fighting American. Simon recalled, "We thought we'd show them how to do Captain America".[43] While the comic book initially portrayed the protagonist as an anti-Communist dramatic hero, Simon and Kirby turned the series into a superhero satire with the second issue, in the aftermath of the Army-McCarthy hearings and the public backlash against the Red-baiting U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy.[44]
-
At the urging of a Crestwood salesman, Kirby and Simon launched their own comics company, Mainline Publications,[44][45] securing a distribution deal with Leader News[46] in late 1953 or early 1954, subletting space from their friend Al Harvey's Harvey Publications at 1860 Broadway.[47] Mainline, which existed from 1954 to 1955, published four titles: the Western Bullseye: Western Scout; the war comic Foxhole, since EC Comics and Atlas Comics were having success with war comics, but promoting theirs as being written and drawn by actual veterans; In Love, since their earlier romance comic Young Love was still being widely imitated; and the crime comic Police Trap, which claimed to be based on genuine accounts by law-enforcement officials.[48] After the duo rearranged and republished artwork from an old Crestwood story in In Love, Crestwood refused to pay the team,[49] who sought an audit of Crestwood's finances. Upon review, the pair's attorney's stated the company owed them $130,000 for work done over the past seven years. Crestwood paid them $10,000 in addition to their recent delayed payments. However, the partnership between Kirby and Simon had become strained.[50] Simon left the industry for a career in advertising, while Kirby continued to freelance. "He wanted to do other things and I stuck with comics," Kirby recalled in 1971. "It was fine. There was no reason to continue the partnership and we parted friends."[51]

At this point in the mid-1950s, Kirby made a temporary return to the former Timely Comics, now known as Atlas Comics, the direct predecessor of Marvel Comics. Inker Frank Giacoia had approached editor-in-chief Stan Lee for work and suggested he could "get Kirby back here to pencil some stuff."[52] While also freelancing for National Comics, the future DC Comics, Kirby drew 20 stories for Atlas from 1956 to 1957: Beginning with the five-page "Mine Field" in Battleground #14 (Nov.1956), Kirby penciled and in some cases also inked (with his wife, Roz) and wrote stories of the Western hero Black Rider, the Fu Manchu-like Yellow Claw, and more.[11][53] But in 1957, distribution troubles caused the "Atlas implosion" that resulted in several series being dropped and no new material being assigned for many months. It would be the following year before Kirby returned to the nascent Marvel.
-
For DC around this time, Kirby co-created with writers Dick and Dave Wood the non-superpowered adventuring quartet the Challengers of the Unknown in Showcase #6 (Feb. 1957), while also contributing to such anthologies as House of Mystery.[11] During 30 months freelancing for DC, Kirby drew slightly more than 600 pages, which included 11 six-page Green Arrow stories in World's Finest Comics and Adventure Comics that, in a rarity, Kirby inked himself.[54] Kirby recast the archer as a science-fiction hero, moving him away from his Batman-formula roots, but in the process alienating Green Arrow co-creator Mort Weisinger.[55]
-
He also began drawing a newspaper comic strip, Sky Masters of the Space Force, written by the Wood brothers and initially inked by the unrelated Wally Wood.[56] Kirby left National Comics due largely to a contractual dispute in which editor Jack Schiff, who had been involved in getting Kirby and the Wood brothers the Sky Masters contract, claimed he was due royalties from Kirby's share of the strip's profits. Schiff successfully sued Kirby.[57] Some DC editors also had criticized him over art details, such as not drawing "the shoelaces on a cavalryman's boots" and showing a Native American "mounting his horse from the wrong side."[58]
-
Several months later, after his split with DC, Kirby began freelancing regularly for Atlas in spite of his lingering resentment of Lieber's earlier treatment of him in the 1940s.[59] Because of the poor page rates, Kirby would spend 12 to 14 hours daily at his drawing table at home, producing eight to ten pages of artwork a day.[60] His first published work at Atlas was the cover of and the seven-page story "I Discovered the Secret of the Flying Saucers" in Strange Worlds #1 (Dec. 1958). Initially with Christopher Rule as his regular inker, and later Dick Ayers, Kirby drew across all genres, from romance comics to war comics to crime comics to Westerns, but made his mark primarily with a series of supernatural-fantasy and science fiction stories featuring giant, drive-in movie-style monsters with names like Groot, the Thing from Planet X; Grottu, King of the Insects; and Fin Fang Foom for the company's many anthology series, such as Amazing Adventures, Strange Tales, Tales to Astonish, Tales of Suspense, and World of Fantasy.[11] His bizarre designs of powerful, unearthly creatures proved a hit with readers. Additionally, he also freelanced for Archie Comics' around this time, reuniting briefly with Joe Simon to help develop the series The Fly and The Double Life of Private Strong. Additionally, Kirby drew some issues of Classics Illustrated.[11]
-
It was at Marvel, however, with writer and editor-in-chief Lee, that Kirby hit his stride once again in superhero comics, beginning with The Fantastic Four #1 (Nov. 1961).[11] The landmark series became a hit that revolutionized the industry with its comparative naturalism and, eventually, a cosmic purview informed by Kirby's seemingly boundless imagination—one well-matched with the consciousness-expanding youth culture of the 1960s.
-
For almost a decade, Kirby provided Marvel's house style, co-creating with Stan Lee many of the Marvel characters and designing their visual motifs. At Lee's request, he often provided new-to-Marvel artists "breakdown" layouts, over which they would pencil in order to become acquainted with the Marvel look. As artist Gil Kane described:
Jack was the single most influential figure in the turnaround in Marvel's fortunes from the time he rejoined the company ... It wasn't merely that Jack conceived most of the characters that are being done, but ... Jack's point of view and philosophy of drawing became the governing philosophy of the entire publishing company and, beyond the publishing company, of the entire field ... [Marvel took] Jack and use[d] him as a primer. They would get artists ... and they taught them the ABCs, which amounted to learning Jack Kirby. ... Jack was like the Holy Scripture and they simply had to follow him without deviation. That's what was told to me ... It was how they taught everyone to reconcile all those opposing attitudes to one single master point of view.[61]
-
Highlights other than the Fantastic Four include: Thor, the Hulk, Iron Man, the original X-Men, the Silver Surfer, Doctor Doom, Galactus, Uatu the Watcher, Magneto, Ego the Living Planet, the Inhumans and their hidden city of Attilan, and the Black Panther—comics' first known black superhero—and his African nation of Wakanda. Simon and Kirby's Captain America was also incorporated into Marvel's continuity with Kirby approving Lee's idea[citation needed] of partially remaking the character as a man out of his time and regretting the death of his sidekick.
-
In 1968 and 1969, Joe Simon was involved in litigation with Marvel Comics over the ownership of Captain America, initiated by Marvel after Simon registered the copyright renewal for Captain America in his own name. According to Simon, Kirby agreed to support the company in the litigation and, as part of a deal Kirby made with publisher Martin Goodman, signed over to Marvel any rights he might have had to the character.[62]
-
Kirby continued to expand the medium's boundaries, devising photo-collage covers and interiors, developing new drawing techniques such as the method for depicting energy fields now known as "Kirby Dots", and other experiments.[63] Yet he grew increasingly dissatisfied with working at Marvel. There have been a number of reasons given for this dissatisfaction, including resentment over Stan Lee's increasing media prominence, a lack of full creative control, anger over breaches of perceived promises by publisher Martin Goodman, and frustration over Marvel's failure to credit him specifically for his story plotting and for his character creations and co-creations.[64] He began to both script and draw some secondary features for Marvel, such as "The Inhumans" in Amazing Adventures, as well as horror stories for the anthology title Chamber of Darkness, and received full credit for doing so; but in 1970, Kirby was presented with a contract that included such unfavorable terms as a prohibition against legal retaliation. When Kirby objected, the management refused to negotiate any contract changes.[65] Kirby, although he was earning $35,000 a year freelancing for the company,[66] subsequently left Marvel in 1970 for rival DC Comics, under editorial director Carmine Infantino
-
Kirby spent nearly two years negotiating a deal to move to DC Comics,[68] where in late 1970 he signed a three-year contract with an option for two additional years.[69] He produced a series of interlinked titles under the blanket sobriquet "The Fourth World", which included a trilogy of new titles — New Gods, Mister Miracle, and The Forever People — as well as the extant Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen.[11][67][70] Kirby picked the latter book because the series was without a stable creative team and he did not want to cost anyone a job.[71][72] The central villain of the Fourth World series, Darkseid, and some of the Fourth World concepts, appeared in Jimmy Olsen before the launch of the other Fourth World books, giving the new titles greater exposure to potential buyers. The Superman figures and Jimmy Olsen faces drawn by Kirby were redrawn by Al Plastino, and later by Murphy Anderson.[73]
-
An attempt at creating new formats for comics produced the one-shot black-and-white magazines Spirit World and In the Days of the Mob in 1971.[74]
Kirby later produced other DC features such as OMAC,[75] Kamandi,[76] The Demon,[77] "The Losers",[78] "Dingbats of Danger Street", Kobra and, together with former partner Joe Simon for one last time, a new incarnation of the Sandman.[11][79]
Kirby's production assistant of the time, Mark Evanier, recounted that DC's policies of the era were not in synch with Kirby's creative impulses, and that he was often forced to work on characters and projects that he did not want to work on.[80] Kirby's renderings of Superman's face (in Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen) were redrawn without his knowledge.[80]
-
At the comic book convention Marvelcon '75, in spring 1975, Stan Lee used a Fantastic Four panel discussion to announce that Kirby was returning to Marvel after having left in 1970 to work for DC Comics. Lee wrote in his monthly column, "Stan Lee's Soapbox", that, "I mentioned that I had a special announcement to make. As I started telling about Jack's return, to a totally incredulous audience, everyone's head started to snap around as Kirby himself came waltzin' down the aisle to join us on the rostrum! You can imagine how it felt clownin' around with the co-creator of most of Marvel's greatest strips once more."[81]
-
Back at Marvel, Kirby both wrote and drew Captain America and created the series The Eternals, which featured a race of inscrutable alien giants, the Celestials, whose behind-the-scenes intervention in primordial humanity would eventually become a core element of Marvel Universe continuity. Kirby's other Marvel creations in this period include Devil Dinosaur, Machine Man, and an adaptation and expansion of the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, as well as an abortive attempt to do the same for the classic television series, The Prisoner.[82] He also wrote and drew Black Panther and drew numerous covers across the line.[11]
-
Still dissatisfied with Marvel's treatment of him,[83] and with the company's refusal to provide health and other employment benefits,[citation needed] Kirby left Marvel to work in animation. In that field, he did designs for Turbo Teen, Thundarr the Barbarian and other animated television series.[80] He also worked on The Fantastic Four cartoon show, reuniting him with scriptwriter Stan Lee.[citation needed] He illustrated an adaptation of the Walt Disney movie The Black Hole for Walt Disney’s Treasury of Classic Tales syndicated comic strip in 1979-80.[citation needed]
-
In 1979, Kirby drew concept art for film producer Barry Geller's script treatment adapting Roger Zelazny's science fiction novel, Lord of Light, for which Geller had purchased the rights. In collaboration, Geller commissioned Kirby to draw set designs that would also be used as architectural renderings for a Colorado theme park to be called Science Fiction Land; Geller announced his plans at a November press conference attended by Kirby, former NFL American football star Rosey Grier, writer Ray Bradbury, and others. While the film did not come to fruition, Kirby's drawings were used for the CIA's "Canadian caper", in which some members of the U.S. embassy in Tehran, Iran, who had avoided capture in the Iran hostage crisis, were able to escape the country posing as members of a movie location-scouting crew.[84]

-
In the early 1980s, Pacific Comics, a new, non-newsstand comic book publisher, made a then-groundbreaking deal with Kirby to publish a creator-owned series, Captain Victory and the Galactic Rangers,[85] and the six-issue miniseries Silver Star, which was collected in hardcover format in 2007.[86][87][88] This, together with similar actions by other independent comics publishers as Eclipse Comics (where Kirby co-created Destroyer Duck in a benefit comic-book series published to help Steve Gerber fight a legal case versus Marvel),[89] helped establish a precedent to end the monopoly of the work for hire system, wherein comics creators, even freelancers, had owned no rights to characters they created.
-
Though estranged from Marvel, Kirby continued to do periodic work for DC Comics during the 1980s, including a brief revival of his "Fourth World" saga in the 1984 and 1985 Super Powers miniseries and the 1985 graphic novel The Hunger Dogs. In 1987, under pressure from comics creators and the fan community, Marvel finally returned approximately 1,900[90] or 2,100 pages[91] of the estimated 10,000[91] to 13,000[92] Kirby drew for the company.[91][92
-
Kirby also retained ownership of characters used by Topps Comics beginning in 1993, for a set of series in what the company dubbed "The Kirbyverse".[93] These titles were derived mainly from designs and concepts that Kirby had kept in his files, some intended initially for the by-then-defunct Pacific Comics, and then licensed to Topps for what would become the "Jack Kirby's Secret City Saga" mythos.[94] Marvel posthumously published a "lost" Kirby/Lee Fantastic Four story, Fantastic Four: The Lost Adventure (April 2008), with unused pages Kirby had originally drawn for a story that was partially published in Fantastic Four #108 (March 1971).[95]
-
On February 6, 1994, Kirby died at age 76 of heart failure in his Thousand Oaks, California home.[96] He was buried at the Pierce Brothers Valley Oaks Memorial Park, Westlake Village, California.[97]
-
Kirby and his wife Roz, who married in 1942, had four children. Susan was born December 6, 1945,[citation needed] followed by Neal in May 1948[39] and their third child, Barbara, in November 1952.[98] They also had another daughter, Lisa.[99]
-
Lisa Kirby announced in early 2006 that she and co-writer Steve Robertson, with artist Mike Thibodeaux, planned to publish via the Marvel Comics Icon imprint a six-issue limited series, Jack Kirby’s Galactic Bounty Hunters, featuring characters and concepts created by her father for Captain Victory.[99] The series, scripted by Lisa Kirby, Robertson, Thibodeaux, and Richard French, with pencil art by Jack Kirby and Thibodeaux, and inking by Scott Hanna and Karl Kesel primarily, ran an initial five issues (Sept. 2006 - Jan. 2007) and then a later final issue (Sept. 2007).[100] The series was collected in hardcover (ISBN 978-0-7851-2628-7) in 2007, and in trade paperback (ISBN 978-0-7851-2629-4) the following year.
On September 16, 2009,[101] the Kirby estate also served notices of termination to Walt Disney Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, and Sony Pictures to attempt to regain control of various Silver Age Marvel characters.[102][103] Marvel is seeking to invalidate these claims.[104][105] However, in mid-March 2010 Kirby's estate "sued Marvel to terminate copyrights and gain profits from [Kirby's] comic creations."[106] In July 2011, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York issued a summary judgment in favor of Marvel,[101][107][108] which was affirmed in August 2013 by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.[109]
In July 2010, Dynamite Entertainment announced that in 2011, it would publish Kirby: Genesis, an eight-issue miniseries by writer Kurt Busiek and artists Jack Herbert and Alex Ross, featuring Kirby-owned characters previously published by Pacific Comics and Topps Comics.
-
The New York Times, in a Sunday op-ed piece written more than a decade after his death, said of Kirby:
He created a new grammar of storytelling and a cinematic style of motion. Once-wooden characters cascaded from one frame to another—or even from page to page—threatening to fall right out of the book into the reader's lap. The force of punches thrown was visibly and explosively evident. Even at rest, a Kirby character pulsed with tension and energy in a way that makes movie versions of the same characters seem static by comparison.[112]
-
Michael Chabon, in his afterword to his Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, a fictional account of two early comics pioneers, wrote, "I want to acknowledge the deep debt I owe in this and everything else I've ever written to the work of the late Jack Kirby, the King of Comics."[113] Director James Cameron said Kirby inspired the look of his film Aliens, calling it "not intentional in the sense I sat down and looked at all my favorite comics and studied them for this film, but, yeah, Kirby's work was definitely in my subconscious programming. The guy was a visionary. Absolutely. And he could draw machines like nobody's business. He was sort of like A.E. Van Vogt and some of these other science-fiction writers who are able to create worlds that — even though we live in a science-fictionary world today — are still so far beyond what we're experiencing."[114]
Jazz percussionist Gregg Bendian's CD, Requiem for Jack Kirby
Several Kirby images are among those on the "Marvel Super Heroes" set of commemorative stamps issued by the U.S. Postal Service on July 27, 2007.[115] Ten of the stamps are portraits of individual Marvel characters and the other 10 stamps depict individual Marvel Comic book covers. According to the credits printed on the back of the pane, Kirby's artwork is featured on: Captain America, The Thing, Silver Surfer, The Amazing Spider-Man #1, The Incredible Hulk #1, Captain America #100, The X-Men #1, and The Fantastic Four #3.[112][115]

Various comic-book and cartoon creators have done homages to Kirby. Examples include the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mirage Comics series ("Kirby and the Warp Crystal" in Donatello #1, and its animated counterpart, "The King", from the 2003 cartoon series). The episode of Superman: The Animated Series entitled "Apokalips...Now! Part 2" was dedicated to his memory.[117]
As of July 2012, Kirby's drawing table and small taboret table reside in the den of his son, Neal Kirby, who hopes that they will inspire Kirby's great-grandchildren.[42]
As of September 2012, Hollywood films based on characters Kirby co-created have collectively earned nearly $3.1 billion.[118] Kirby himself is a character portrayed by Luis Yagüe in the 2009 Spanish short film The King & the Worst, which is inspired by Kirby's service in World War II.[119] He is portrayed by Michael Parks in a brief appearance in the fact-based drama Argo (2012), about the Canadian Caper.[120]

His work was honored posthumously in 1998: The collection of his New Gods material, Jack Kirby's New Gods, edited by Bob Kahan, won both the Harvey Award for Best Domestic Reprint Project,[132] and the Eisner Award for Best Archival Collection/Project.[133]
The Jack Kirby Awards and Jack Kirby Hall of Fame were named in his honor.

Infocom was a software company, based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, that produced numerous works of interactive fiction. They also produced one notable business application, a relational database called Cornerstone.
Infocom was founded on June 22, 1979 by MIT staff and students led by Dave Lebling, Marc Blank, Albert Vezza, and Joel Berez and lasted as an independent company until 1986 when it was bought by Activision. Activision finally shut down the Infocom division in 1989, although they released some titles in the 1990s under the Infocom Zork brand. Activision abandoned the Infocom trademark in 2002.
The name was later registered by Oliver Klaeffling of Germany in 2007, which itself was abandoned the following year.
The Infocom trademark is currently held by Pete Hottelet's Omni Consumer Products, who registered the name around the same time as Klaeffling in 2007.[1]

THE END
-
You say the hill's too steep to climb?
Climb it.
-
You say you'd like to see me try?
Climb it.
-
You pick the place and I'll choose the time
And I'll climb the hill in my own way.
-
Just wait a while, for the right day
-
And as I rise above the treeline and the clouds
I look down hear the sound of the things you said today
-
I love the twist of how I started out annoyed and confused by the Post Burning Site -- having assumed that the repeated dumb posts were spam perpetrated by some crazy person -- only to understand what it is for and to find myself doing the same thing.
Like how in 12 Monkeys, at the beginning the psychiatrist thinks Bruce Willis is crazy and then they've switched places.
-
I really should have posted more over the years.
-
And tweeted.

Aqui me pongo a cantar
al compás de la vigüela,
que el hombre que lo desvela
una pena estrordinaria,
como la ave solitaria
con el cantar se consuela.

SO I NOTICE YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN REALLY INVOLVED WITH PROMOTING THE MILITARY. [1]
Well, they actually came to us, believe it or not. Somebody in the Navy loves this band, because they used ‘Awake’ for three years and then they came to us and re-upped the contract for another three years for ‘Sick of Life.’ So, I don’t know. They just feel like that music, [laughs] someone in that place thinks that the music is very motivating for recruit commercials I guess. And hey, I’m an American boy so it’s not… I’m proud of it.
YOU’RE PROUD OF RECRUITING YOUR FANS INTO THE MILITARY?
Well, no. [laughs, then jokingly] Don’t be turning my fucking words around, you!
WELL, TELL ME WHAT YOU MEAN. YOU SAID YOUR MUSIC IS POWERFUL, IT’S GOT AN EFFECT, LIKE YOU SAID, AND YOU’RE LETTING THE MILITARY USE IT. THE MILITARY, WHO ARE THEY RECRUITING? 18 TO 30-YEAR OLDS, RIGHT?
I guess… I don’t know what their recruit age is. I know it’s at least 18. (...)
IN 2003 YOU DID A SHOW THAT STARTED WITH VIDEO FOOTAGE OF APACHE HELICOPTERS HONING IN ON A DESERT TARGET INTERSPERSED WITH THE WORDS “WE WILL PREVAIL./STRONGER THAN THEM ALL.” (...)
Yeah…?
SO YOU’RE USING MILITARY IMAGERY WITH YOUR MUSIC AT YOUR CONCERTS.
First of all, it was a COMPUTER image, a computer-animated helicopter that didn’t… There was no scene of a desert in there. It was a helicopter that rose up from the screen and scanned the audience. It was an EFFECT. And then it shot out missiles that hit the stage.
-
JAY: Uh huh…
SULLY: Because the intro to “Straight Out of Line” has the sounds of like, a war thing going on.
JAY [trying to decide if Sully is dissembling or just obtuse]: Oh I see. So it’s just sort of a concept thing. [pause] Well, you’ve done a lot to help out the guys who are in the military, who are stuck there now, whether they chose to be there or they got hoodwinked into being there. For whatever reason, they’re in the military. And they’re doing their job. You guys did a show for them at Camp Pendleton–
SULLY: Yup.
JAY: –called “Rockin’ the Corps.” And so you’ve been doing a lot of benefit shows…
SULLY: [interrupting] Well, like I said, Listen you know, there’s a lot of young kids that die for our country, man, and they don’t have the choice once they’re in there.
JAY: That’s right.
SULLY: So I just feel well you know whatever we can do to say “thank you for protecting our country” is what we try to do. I’m not trying to make this a big political issue.
JAY: Okay. Have you done anything to prevent people from joining the military?
SULLY: No.
JAY: To maybe educate them as to what’s in store for them?
SULLY: I don’t have enough education in the military to educate them in anything.
JAY: Would you let your music be used for anti-military recruiting advertisements?
SULLY: I don’t know, I’d have to see what that was about.
JAY: But you’d be open to it?
SULLY: We’re open to whatever, as long as it’s not a Maybelline commercial.
JAY: [laughs] Maybelline’s more offensive than the military…?
SULLY: No. That doesn’t quite go with what we do.
JAY: But the military does?
SULLY: Listen. Where are we going with this thing? Is this interview about the government–
JAY: Well, I’ve never seen such a pro-military–
SULLY: Sounds like this is a personal attack or whatever.
JAY: Well I’ve never seen such a pro-military band as you guys. [4]
SULLY: But we’re not! I think [chuckling] you’re making us out to be a little bit more. When we’re asked about something, we just answer the question. We don’t go spend 23 hours out of our day supporting the military and what they do.
JAY: Um hmm.
SULLY: We just simply, an opportunity came up, they wanted to use some music for a recruit commercial. What are we gonna say, no?
JAY: Yeah. How hard is it to say ‘no’?
SULLY: Why would we, though?!?
JAY: Because…
SULLY [interrupting]: Is it because you don’t feel the same way about the government that we do, makes you right and us wrong?
JAY: Yeah. What do you feel about the government? Tell me what–
SULLY: Aw, that’s crazy, man! That’s just an OPINION.
JAY: I can back my opinion up from here to tomorrow if you would like to talk to me all day long.
SULLY: Well obviously you’ve done a lot of research and you’ve–
JAY [interrupting]: That’s right, because–
SULLY: –got a different opinion. We don’t know that stuff that you know, so–
JAY [impatient]: Why don’t you do some research before you get involved with these sorts of things? You’re talking about young kids’ lives. You’re talking about kids–
SULLY: [yelling] Would you rather not have us be protected so they can come and overrun our country?!?
JAY: Do you know what a “fool’s errand” is?
SULLY: I’m asking you a question!
JAY: No one is threatening–
SULLY [interrupting]: Would you rather us not be protected?!?
JAY: You know what I’d like, Sully? A Department of Defense, not a Department of Offense that attacks other countries — sovereign nations — who do things in a different way than us, who we have no right to go over and invade and change their governments. Would we want someone else to do that to us?
SULLY: I’m not saying –
JAY [interrupting]: How hard is that to think about?
SULLY: I’m not saying that we were right on every war that we’ve created. I know that we’ve been damn wrong at times about stuff–
JAY [interrupting]: When have we been wrong?
SULLY: [yelling] but they have also been wrong too!
JAY: When have –
SULLY [interrupting]: I don’t trust someone like fuckin’ Sadaam and Osama to come in here and try to control–
JAY: [interrupting, incredulous] When did Sadaam try to come in here and control our country?
SULLY: Dude, [yelling] WHY DON’T YOU GO LIVE IN IRAQ THEN IF YOU HAVE SUCH A PROBLEM WITH AMERICA? Why are you here?
-
JAY: Why am I here?!? This is the top country in the world, my friend!
SULLY: Well, why do you think so? Because it’s PROTECTED.
JAY: No, it’s not because it’s–
SULLY [interrupting]: –ruled our country.
JAY: No one is attacking us, my friend. Certainly not Iraq. Every first world nation suffers terrorist attacks. Get used to it.
SULLY: I am used to it. I don’t have a problem–
JAY: Get used to it.
SULLY: [laughs] Sounds like you do.
JAY: You’re the one that’s saying it’s alright to not know about stuff and then to send other people to die in our name.
SULLY: I never said that! Don’t put fuckin’ words in my mouth.
JAY: I’ve got it on tape, bro.
SULLY: You’ve “got it on tape, bro”?!?
JAY: Yeah.
SULLY: You got me saying it’s okay for us to attack other countries?
JAY: I got you on tape saying they’re protecting us by attacking, by going over there and taking out people.
SULLY: Listen, don’t fuckin’ turn my words around to make it to what you want it to be! That’s not what I meant and you know that.
JAY: Okay I’m sorry. Then tell me what you meant.
SULLY: Listen, I’m not gonna get into a political fuckin’ conversation with you. This was supposed to be an interview about the band. Where is this going?
JAY: We’re talking about the power of your music and what you’re using it for.
SULLY: What is this for anyway? Who are you working with?
JAY: I’m working for my own magazine, my friend.
SULLY: What’s it called?
JAY: [laughing in disbelief] What do you mean, what’s it called? Are you serious?
SULLY: Yeah, what’s the magazine called?
JAY: It’s called Arthur Magazine. You guys are the ones that set this up.
-
SULLY: Hey I was just told to do press today, man.
JAY: Hey man, you guys–
SULLY: I got a checklist in front of me, and I don’t have time for a lot of this bullshit.
JAY: Oh yeah?
SULLY: So write whatever the fuck you wanna write, because your magazine obviously is that popular.
JAY: It’s doing pretty good…
SULLY [interrupting]: Yeah I’m sure it is. All three thousand copies of it… [5]
JAY: On our own, without any corporate support.
SULLY: I wish you the best of– Why would you waste your time calling a band like us when you don’t even give a fuck?!?
JAY: I certainly do “give a fuck.” Cuz you know what?
SULLY: What is this about?!?
JAY: Because listen man! You know there’s 2,800 people, my brothers and sisters, have died over in Iraq?
SULLY: Yeah?
JAY: You know 30,000 Iraqi humans WHO NEVER DID SHIT TO US have died because of the attacks we’ve made over there? [6]
SULLY: [in disbelief] And that’s Godsmack’s fault?
-
JAY: Did you know that 78% of women in the military report cases of sexual harassment? [7]
SULLY: [sarcastic] And that’s Godsmack’s fault.
JAY: No, man–
SULLY [interrupting, sarcastic]: That has to do with our new record.
JAY: Okay, let’s talk about your new record.
SULLY: I can’t believe this. This is [inaud]
JAY: Let’s talk about that new record, my friend.
SULLY: Get a life. [hangs up]
JAY: Let’s talk about the new album…

Q: Has the band disciplined itself for life on the road? You tour so extensively ... you really have to take care of yourself.
A: We're not at all as crazy as we used to be. Now we know what we have to do and we do it. What's fun is getting to meet all the people whose music we listen to. It's a gas! We met Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick ... he was the greatest! He hung out with us when we played Rockford, Illinois and he got totally plastered! No more tequila for you, Rick! When he pulled that stuff out, I knew there'd be problems. What a wild guy!
Q: Who are some of the people who you'd like to meet?
A: The guys in the Rolling Stones ... we haven't met them yet. Ian Hunter. People like that.
Q: Is there really gonna be a 15-minute song on your next album filled with synthesizers and strings?
A: (laughing) Could be. There's talk. We constantly disagree and keep changing from one day to the next.

Things get a little easier
Once you understand
Things get a little easier
Once you understand...
I'll be expecting you to
Get a haircut by Friday
(Forget it, Dad)
(That won't change anything)
Forget nothing, you'll do as I say
As long as you're living in my house
He knows I'm not feeling well
And yet he doesn't take one
Second out to help his mother
His only concern is for himself
(Come on, Ma)
(What do you want from me)
Don't argue with your mother
Just shut up and listen
But, Mom, all my
Friends will be there
(I said, no, you can't go)
But why
(I don't want you
In that neighborhood)
Why, what's wrong
With that neighborhood
(I don't like the kind of
People living there)
Why, what's wrong with them
(Nevermind)
(Some day, you'll thank me)
Are you sure no one kept you
Company tonight while
You were babysitting
(What's that supposed to mean)
Just curious
(Admit it, Mom, you don't trust me)
Where are you going now
(To my friend's house)
Don't you have things
To do in the house
Don't you have any homework
Why don't you sit down
And read a book (oh, ma)
Don't oh, Ma, me
You're wasting your life
Away with the foolish things
(What are you talking about
How about your bridge club
And your ladies groups
And your parties and
Your daytime programs
What about all that)
That's different
Ma, I'll be home at eleven
(You better be home at ten or
Don't bother to come home at all)
When I was your age
I was working twelve hours a day
Six days a week helping to pay
For the food and the rent
(I don't understand, what's
That got to do with me)
If you can't figure that out
For yourself, you're stupid
Hey, Dad
Did you see my new guitar
I joined a group
(Son, there's a little bit more
To life than joining a group
And playing the guitar)
Yeah, Dad, what is there to life
Mister Cook (yes)
You have a son named Robert
Robert Cook, age seventeen (yes)
I'm sorry, Mister Cook
You better come down
To the station house

I. The Stones Of Years
Has the dawn ever seen your eyes?
Have the days made you so unwise?
Realize, you are.
Had you talked to the winds of time,
Then you'd know how the waters rhyme,
Taste of wine,
How can you know where you've been?
In time you'll see the sign
And realize your sin.
Will you know how the seed is sown?
All your time has been overgrown,
Never known.
Have you walked on the stones of years?
When you speak, is it you that hears?
Are your ears bone?
You can't hear anything at all.
-
III. The Battlefield
Clear the battlefield and let me see
All the profit from our victory.
You talk of freedom, starving children fall.
Are you deaf when you hear the season's call?
Were you there to watch the earth be scorched?
Did you stand beside the spectral torch?
Know the leaves of sorrow turned their face,
Scattered on the ashes of disgrace.
Ev'ry blade is sharp; the arrows fly
Where the victims of your armies lie.
Were the blades of grass, and arrows rain,
Then there'd be no sorrow,
Be no pain.
-
Please understand me
I'm climbin' through the wreckage
of all my twisted dreams
But this cheap investigation just can't
stifle all my screams
-
No one's gonna bother me anymore
No one's gonna mess with my head no more
I can't understand what all the fightin's for
But it's so nice here down off the shore
I wish you could see this
'cause there's nothing to see
It's peaceful here and it's fine with me
Not like the world where I used to live
I never really wanted to live
-
Good morning Worm your honour
The crown will plainly show
The prisoner who now stands before you
Was caught red handed showing feelings
Showing feelings of an almost human nature
This will not do
-
Sad absence, though. Sad absence.
-
Had no idea all my old posts would go, you take a few years off and life disappears.

Sometimes when I get in my zone
-
you'd think I was stoned,
-
but I never, as they say, touched the stuff.
-
I might be adrift
-
but I'm still alert.
-
Concentrate my mind into a
-
gold tone
-
In the night when all hibernates,
-
I stay awake.
-
Searching the deep, dark, depths of my
-
soul tone
-
There's a place in my heart
-
for all of my friends
-
some have stepped out
-
but some check back in.
-
Been living my life
-
on the run
-
from day one.
-
Every day is "hey-
-
so are they."
-
But if I been looking back today,
-
I'm looking back in
-
gold tones
-
golden tones.
-
I been around
-
been up and down
-
this round world that's
-
always turning.
-
'Til someday
-
or so they say
-
when a-hey, hey,
-
I wanna hear a
-
gold tone
-
Sometimes as I'm floating away
-
I wish I could stay
-
then arrive among the dropping flies.
-
There's a place in my heart
-
been trying to locate
-
it's somewhere within
-
and it's for them
-
that is gold tones
-
golden tones
-
yeaaah yeah
-
I might be adrift
-
but I'm still alert
-
concentrate my hurt into a
-
gold tone
-

Jet!
-
Jet!
-
Jet!
-
Was your father as bold as a Sgt. Major?
-
How come he told you that you were hardly old enough yet?
-
And Jet
-
I thought the major was a lady suffragette.
-
Jet!
-
Jet!
-
Ah, Mater, want Jet to always love me
-
Ah Mater, want Jet to always love me
-
Ah Mater
-
Much later

with the wind in your hair of a thousand laces
-
Climb on the back and we'll go for a ride in the sky
-
And Jet.

I thought the major was a little lady suffragette

Morning in Volmerica...
10 Great Places to Stand and Cheer Football,http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/travel/destinations/10great/2008-10-09-college-football-stadiums_N.htm (http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/travel/destinations/10great/2008-10-09-college-football-stadiums_N.htm)
, this was last year, but notice which stadium was mentioned first. Yes Vol Nation, that echo you hear in the distance is the Ghost of John Ward's voice, Bob Kesling, http://smokeys-trail.com/TN/traditions.html. (http://smokeys-trail.com/TN/traditions.html.)
It is almost football time in Tennessee. I know many of us are nervous, anxious, not sure what to expect of Victory Lane, http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/football/sec/2009-05-20-lane-kiffin_N.htm?obref=obinsite (http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/football/sec/2009-05-20-lane-kiffin_N.htm?obref=obinsite)
Regardless, come saturday, from New York to Los Angeles across this great land, we will be slipping Miller Lites into our Big Orange Beer Coozies, sinking off to Dave & Buster's assuring our wives we have learned from Steve McNair, all so that we can "wish that we were on old rocky top" and to cheer on the nation's number recruit Bryce Brown and the nerves of steel quarterback and to Victory Lane's soft side Or we may be trying to work through the pain of last season On Rocky Top. We do not know what the season holds, but we do know ane-kiffins-wild-boyz-are-so-hot-right-now-- and basketball season is only a couple of months away http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2009/08/18/sports/s191854D33.DTL (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2009/08/18/sports/s191854D33.DTL)

Before we talk about Monte Kiffin's new favorite player [url=http://ericberryisgod.wordpress.com/]http://ericberryisgod.wordpress.com/[/url]A tip of the hat to Kyle Parker, who the commentators said "has different nintendo game going on in his head" and the Clemson Tigers for almost pulling off the Thursday night upset. Also a tip of the orange fedora to Jeff Fisher and his Titans for almost pulling off the upset in Pittsburgh. Let's hope this bodes well for the Vols as they face their first challenge this Saturday.

Oh, man. Aw, jeez. Aw, now my CD player doesn’t work. Now my tummy’s really hurting. I gotta go see my mommy. (cries) Ashley! (cries) Why?! Why?!?! (scream cries) Oh, man! I’ll change! I’ll change!

I won’t wear the flip flops anymoooore… I won’t even listen to REO Speedwagon… Aw, man… (cries) I’m sorry! (scream cries) My tummmyyy! Aw, my tummy hurts! Oh, mommy… Oh… (hangs up)

I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week
Indulging in my self defeat
My mind was thugged all laced and bugged all twisted wrong and beat
A comfortable three feet deep
Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning weak
Impaired my tribal lunar speak
And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done
So I missed a million miles of fun
-
I know it's up for me
If you steal my sunshine
Making sure I'm not in too deep
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping versed and on my feet
Check, come here come here, come here
Wow, look at her
I know
I've never seen Sharon look so bad before
I did once before, but this is pretty bad
Yeah, what do you think she got up to last night?
Ha ha ha
Tell, I, Karen I love you
I was lying on the bench slide in the park across the street
L-a-t-e-are that week
My sticky paws were in to making straws out of big fat slurpy treats
An incredible eight foot heap
Now the funny glare to pay a gleaming tare in a staring under heat
Involved an under usual feet
And I'm not only among but I invite who I want to come
So I missed a million miles of fun
-
I know it's up for me
If you steal my sunshine
Making sure I'm not in too deep
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping versed and on my feet
-
I know it's done for me
If you steal my sunshine
Not as some and hard to see
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping dumb and built to beat
If you steal my sunshine
-
My sunshine
If you steal my sunshine

"tribal lunar-speak" is the key to the lyrics of the song. The female singer is referring to the "tribe" women belong to. Women's "cycles" are entrained on a 28 day rhythm. During the month 400-600 million little critters may enter "paradise" or Hell (=Her) and that may happen several times during a typical cycle from several different donors. At the end of 28 days, the cycle begins again. Males have their "sunshine" stolen. Only males produce gametes owing to the Y having "hijacked" the sex determining chromosome 300 mya. Proof of that interpretation? Near the end of the video a pregnant woman is shown baring her belly. Biology is key to understanding relations between men and women as portrayed in music video but mythology is no less important. "Sledgehammer" by Peter Gabriel is a good example where biology is important, however, the hammer is a mythological reference as is the symbol for Tao. The video opens to a bunch of sperm swimming next to and attempting to fertilize an egg.
-
Well that doesn't explain all of it, even if they are on drugs. What's with all the speaking parts in between that aren't written here? I think she's pregnant, and they're being total jackasses about it and just laughing.
-
sunshine=virginity... she was contemplating whether to give it up and the speaking parts are of her love interest's friends who are wondering if "karen" and her love interest commited this act *my opinion* the verses are of what events took place and how the singers felt afterwards
-
Um, did anyone ever think that maybe this song is about being unhappy because of someone else? 'Cause if you listen really really closely in the beginning of the song, you'll hear them saying things like "I wonder why him/her is so down." Some songs don't have double meanings, but hell, let's be like everyone else and think that every song is about sex and drugs, shall we?
-
I think the drug theory might be right, except I think they might have just been smoking crack when they "wrote" it. I suspect this is just the way one talks after a 2 week crack bender and/or if one is from Canada.
-
Heres what i found.The song has special meaning to Marc in particular, as it was written about three years ago when he and his sister (who are incredibly close) were going through a rough patch.
-
all about pot. read it again with that in mind. not a bad thing, they like it. they dont want you to steal their sunshine.
-
Sunshine=Cocaine
-
"my mind was thugged, all laced and bugged, all twisted round and beat " signifying drug use.
"now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning week impaired my tribal lunar-speak " signifying drug use.
"my sticky paws were into making straws out of big fat slurpy treats " Rolling a blunt, of course. (I love this song)
All in all, both are under the influence of drugs in order to escape the current situation they both are in. It either involves the contemplation of having sex for the first time, or Karen is pregnant.
...and this song was on Kidz Bop?
-
I agree with sakebox. And I also thought the song hits at sex. Or at least that was my original take on the song. I mean, yes, it's possibe the song is about drug use. But then again, there are a lot of songs you can look they can be drug songs.
-
omg!!!!11!!!one!!11! greatest 90's song ever, just found it too, i rmember singin it when i was like 8
-
I think it has to do with everything mentioned so far.
I think it has to do with drugs (I'm guessing shrooms), coming down from a heavy trip, having done something that you wouldn't usually do when you're under the influence, and maybe jeopardizing a friendship. But this is one of those songs that could be interpreted so many different ways, and until someone gives me a description of it by the artists themselves, it's whatever you want it to be.
-
Actually, does anyone remember the videoclip for it? I do, and it showed the girl (Sharon..or Karen..whatever) lying on the grass...and then later on in the song it shows her and Mark together, and she is quite obviously pregnant. The lines "So i missed a million miles of fun", could be showing this, that they got pregnant at a young age and werent able to experience everything the rest of their friends did, such as late nite parties etc
-
alright..so maybe I do have a dirty mind..but matt, tim, mark, and buttertarts? (The first speaking verse)..what does that mean?? why are they laughing to themselves as they say it? how are matt and tim going to cheer mark up with buttertarts? Am I making this more perverse than it should be?
-
i think the songs about 4 friends.....3 boys and one girl.....the girl and one of the guys did somehtign at aprty liek sex or drugs or something rebelious and the ppl talkign in the otehr bits are teh other two boys....and they arn't sure what to do because the girl and guy have done somehting to create alot of tension
-
okay i have been wondering for awhile what this song meant.
but i looked the video up on youtube.com
and at the end someone said it showed sharon pregnant.
well that isnt her. sharon comes up behind her.
-
Song is almost furry...
-
"i was frying on the bench slide in the park across the street"
frying = being on acid.
-
the guy says karen because he is mocking the the guy she may have slept with...he is laughing that he probably got her name wrong in bed. that's my guess. but both singers are down because they both did something stupid and it all happened because they were on drugs. just my take on the song.
-
"When producing "Steal My Sunshine", Marc Costanzo wanted to make a song similar to The Human League's 1981 synthpop single "Don't You Want Me". As a result, the song's structure is characterized by alternating between male and female vocals from Marc and Sharon." -- you can find this interview at this URL: ew.com/ew/article/…
"It describes a romantic relationship between teenagers, whose feelings vacillate between extremes." says an NY Times writer -- nytimes.com/1999/08/08/arts/…
-
All this time I thought the person was saying "GARETTE I LOVE YOU!" Sharon or Karen makes a whole lot more sense. I have always thought this song was a little odd. And semi-annoying. But after reading your guys comments it makes me understand it more.
-
Also,
Sunshine was originally a codeword for LSD.
Butter tarts? They are laughing really hard about that.
Butter tarts aren't that funny.
"my mind was thugged, all laced and bugged, all twisted round and beat"
-Not the average hangover. Hallucinogens implied.
"now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning week"
-Yeah, definately trippin.
"my sticky paws were into making straws out of big fat slurpy treats"
-Yep, weed and junk food. Two things you often see together.
Drugs and candy. I'm tellin y'all.
Just watch the video.
-
This song reminds me of the beach, and summer.
I miss it...
-
I think the song is about missing out on fun while going to work or school
-
Most of this song is about dropping acid.
"I was FRYING on the bench slide in the park across that street"
"And the fuzzy stare from not being there"
and I think the whole
"Steal my sunshine"
deal is about taking her virtue and giving her drugs and just being bad kids
Oh, and when she's talking about making straws for the slurpees,
she is rolling joints.
Loo0oo0ooove this song ^~^
-
aint "sunshine" code for H? as in "I got sunshine in a bag" ==> Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood... I like to think it aint about that... I like to believe it's all about a lazy day "above the influence"... but since they aint done sh!t since maybe the sunshine baked them all to cinders...
-
wikipedia... lol
the song seems to have a literal meaning regarding a stoner who is woken up by the police after passing out in a ditch and a girl who also attracts police attention as she digs through the trash at a park across the street (later in the week) hoping to find maybe one that has residue from where it was used to snort with. They happily trade real joys in life (sarcastically called "a million miles of fun" and admit they would rather just get high and talk about what they will do one day rather than do it... anyone who tries to give them a reality check is "stealing their sunshine"
Just my gist on it.
-
This song is about meth. 100%
-
Anyone who doesn't think this song is about drugs needs to seriously look at the lyrics
1. Sunshine is a nickname for acid
2. When someone is "frying" they are tripping on acid
3. "My mind was thugged all laced and bugged" is an obvious description of how it feels to drop acid
4. "The fuzzy stare from not being thereon a confusing morning week/impaired my tribal-lunar speak" is another description of how it feels to drop acid
As for the speaking parts I'm not exactly sure...thats the only part I'm confused about but this song is DEFINITELY about LSD!
-
Can you just say late 90s pop??
This song randomly popped into my head as the weather's just started to change up where I live. Immediately as I started listening I got visions of being on my school bus and hearing this almost every morning...little would I know, eleven years later I'd be here mesmerized by the way this song epitomizes my life/summer, once it's here.
It's wonderfully written...
-
"and of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done"
he wants to stop doing drugs but talking about it, isnt going to make it happen.
i know it's up for me
if you steal my sunshine
making sure i'm not in too deep
if you steal my sunshine
keeping versed and on my feet
if you steal my sunshine
I believe the song is about drugs, however, I believe marc is wanting to get off drugs, or maybe both of them are wanting to stop doing drugs by someone "stealing their sunshine"
"and i'm not only among but i invite who i want to come
so i missed a million miles of fun"
here she missed a million miles of fun because maybe the party she had she didnt allow drugs to be there.
Just a thought
-
I was FRYING on the bench slide in the park across the street... ACID!!
-
I used to think this song was about liking someone and hoping it doesn't turn out to be too good to be true (steal my sunshine).
And I really hate to think every song is secretly about drugs or sex, but now I really do think this one is about drugs.
I think the song is about her doing drugs. Possibly to deal with a romantic situation or lack thereof, maybe a replacement for one, and she's using the drugs as her sunshine of the summer, while all her other friends are having fun on their own. And she's afraid to lose her cool too much around them because if they think she's getting "in too deep", they're going to take them away from her.
to me,
it's obvious in so many of the lines now.
-
I'm so tempted to start this comment with people are so god damn naive, but please read that as this song is obviously about drugs (and their partaking in them.)
The part I love about this is that it seems to relate love and drugs in a way that these two people care about each other and love having fun with each other but would hate to see the other go off the deep end. By the sounds of it, it's like that sunshine feeling you get on acid when every thing perceived is like your brain being splattered onto your surroundings, and you're just picking pieces of it off different objects - this really isn't as horrific as it sounds. Sometimes people hallucinate to the point that they can relate different ideas in a heavy metaphorical sense, but that reality may get too twisted for the first-person, or maybe someone participating. Deemed "the fear," communication becomes unclear and tension rises. When two people so close are tripping with each other, they can have connections that will keep each other grounded. Things are not always what they seem, however; sometimes, when the world is alright in one person's eyes (drugs or no drugs) someone who is interloping with best intentions is stealing the one person's sunshine.
Now kids, you don't need drugs to enjoy music, you need music to enjoy drugs.
-
I agree with you. I always thought the verse "Steal my sunshine" was what haters do to bring you down, but you refuse to let them bring you down. After reading the lyrics I think its about people you love bringing you down. You want to be there for them but you don't want them to steal your sunshine to wallowing in their misery. Possible the drug use is true too. Mess with your brain and you mess with your happy seratonins levels.
-
Tim: hey Matt...
Matt: Yeah Tim?
TIm: Hey you talked to Marc lately?
Matt: Uh..haven't really talked to him but..he looks pretty uh..down.
Tim: He looks pretty uh..down? (while laughing)
Matt: Yeah well maybe we should cheer him up then
Tim: What do you uh..suppose we should do?
Matt: Well does he like butter tarts?
-
I agreeee. I first heard this song when I was about 12, and I always thought she was pregnant.
-
and there you have it
-
the true meaning of the song "steal my sunshine" by len according to SongMeanings
-
Oh, so this is how it works.
-
I now regret all this lurking.
-
Sigh. I'm sorry.
-
Miss the show.
-

I am alone here now, under cover.
-
Outside it is raining, outside you walk through the rain with your head down, shielding your eyes with one hand while you stare ahead nevertheless, a few yards ahead, at a few yards of wet asphalt; outside it is cold, the wind blows between the bare black branches; the wind blows through the leaves, rocking whole boughs, rocking them, rocking, their shadows swaying across the white roughcast walls.
-
Outside the sun is shining, there is no tree, no bush to cast a shadow, and you walk under the sun shielding your eyes with one hand you stare ahead, only a few yards in front of you, at a few yards of dusty asphalt where the wind makes patterns of parallel lines, forks, and spirals.
-
The sun does not get in here, nor the wind, nor the rain, nor the dust.
-
The fine dust which dulls the gloss of the horizontal surfaces, the varnished wood of the table, the waxed floor, the marble shelf over the fireplace, the marble top of the chest, the cracked marble on top of the chest, the only dust comes from the room itself: from the cracks in the floor maybe, or else from the bed, or from the curtains or from the ashes in the fireplace.
-
On the polished wood of the table, the dust has marked the places occupied for a while--for a few hours, several days, minutes, weeks--by small objects subsequently removed whose outlines are still distinct for some time, a circle, a square, a rectangle, other less simple shapes, some partly overlapping, already blurred or half obliterated as though by a rag.
-
When the outline is distinct enough to permit the shape to be identified with certainty, it is easy to find the original object again, nor far away.
-
For example, the circular shape has obviously been left by a glass ashtray which is lying beside it.
-
Similarly, a little farther away, the square occupying the table's left rear corner corresponds to the base of the brass lamp that now stands in the right corner: a square pedestal about one inch high capped by a disk of the same height supporting a fluted column at its center.
-
The lampshade casts a circle of light on the ceiling, but this circle is not complete: it is intersected by the wall behind the table.
-
This wall, instead of being papered like the other three, is concealed from floor to ceiling and for the greater part of its width by thick red curtains made of a heavy velvety material.
-
Outside it is snowing.
-
Across the dark asphalt of the sidewalk the wind is driving the fine dry crystals which after each gust form white parallel lines, forks, spirals that are immediately broken up, seized by the eddies driven along the ground, then immobilized again, recomposing new spirals, scrolls, forked undulations, shifting arabesques immediately broken up.
-
You walk with your head a little farther down, pressing the hand shielding your eyes closer, leaving only a few inches of ground visible in front of your feet, a few grayish inches where your feet appear one after the other and vanish behind you, one after the other, alternately.
-
But the staccato sound of hobnail boots on the asphalt, coming steadily closer down the straight street, sounding louder and louder in the calm of the frostbound night, the sound of boots cannot come in here, any more than other sounds from outside.
-
The street is too long, the curtains too thick, the house too high.
-
No noise, even muffled, ever penetrates the walls of the room, no vibration, no breath of air, and in the silence tiny particles descend slowly, scarcely visible in the lamplight, descend gently, vertically, always at the same speed, and the fine gray dust lies in a uniform layer of the floor, on the bedspread, on the furniture.
-
On the waxed floor, the felt slippers have made gleaming paths from the bed to the chest, from the chest to the fireplace, from the fireplace to the table.
-
And on the table, the shifting of objects has also disturbed the continuity of the film of dust, the latter, more or less thick according to the length of time the surfaces have been exposed, is even occasionally interrupted altogether.
-
As distinct as though drawn with a drafting-pen, a square of varnished wood thus occupies the left rear corner, not precisely at the corner of the table but parallel to its edges, set back about four inches.
-
The square itself is about six inches on each side, and in it the reddish-brown wood gleams, virtually without any deposit.
-
Outside it is snowing.
-
Outside it has been snowing, it was snowing, outside it is snowing.
-
The thick flakes descend gently in a steady, uninterrupted, vertical fall--for there is not a breath of air--in front of the high gray walls whose arrangement, the alignment of the roofs, the location of the doors and windows, cannot be distinguished clearly because of the snow.
-
There must be identical rows of regular windows on each floor from one end of the straight street to the other.
-
A perpendicular crossroad reveals a second street just like the first: the same absence of traffic, the same high gray walls, the same blind windows, the same deserted sidewalks.
-
At the corner of the sidewalk, a street light is on, although it is broad daylight.
-
But it is a dull day which makes everything colorless and flat.
-
Instead of the striking vistas these rows of houses should produce, there is only a crisscrossing of meaningless lines, the falling snow depriving the scene of all relief, as if this blurred view were merely badly painted on a bare wall.
-
The snow has stopped falling.
-
The weather has grown increasingly mild during the course of the day.
-
The sidewalks are still white, but the street, where the trucks have been passing continuously for hours, has already turned black again along its entire central section, the half melted snow having been heaped in the gutters on either side.
-
Scattered drops of fine rain begin to float in the evening air, still mixed with a few moist snowflakes which turn to water even before they have reached the street.
-
Outside it is raining.
-
Outside you walk through the rain with your head down, shielding your eyes with one hand while you stare ahead, a few yards ahead, at a few yards of wet asphalt.
-
But the image grows blurred by trying to distinguish the outlines.
-
As in the case of the inordinately delicate pattern of the wallpaper and the indeterminate edges of the gleaming paths made in the dust by the felt slippers.
-
And, beyond the door, the dark vestibule where the umbrella is leaning against the coat rack.
-
Then, once past the entrance door, the series of long hallways.
-
The spiral staircase.
-
The door to the building with its stone stoop.
-
And the whole city behind me.

Thank you for this thread. I just now learned about what happens at 50.

-
Does anyone like Kleenex Girl Wonder?
-
Graham Smith
-
Ponyoak is a pretty good album.
-
Best Sleater-Kinney album?

I like Dig Me Out the most, probably.

Dearly
-
beloved,
-
We are gathered here today
-
2 get through this thing called
-
life.
-
Electric word, life.
-
It means forever.
-
And that's a mighty long time.
-
But I'm here to tell you there's something else...
-
The afterworld.
-
A world of never ending happiness
-
U can always see the sun,
-
Day or night.
-
So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills, U know the one...
-
Dr
-
Everything'll
-
Be
-
Alright
-
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left,
-
Ask him how much of your mind,
-
Baby.
-
Cause in this life...
-
Things are much harder in the afterworld.
-
In this life
-
You're on your own.
-
And if the elevator tries to bring u down,
-
Go crazy.
-
You munch.

28? Does this mess anything up?
Yes!
I hope not. Though, I'm guessing you're just joking (or referring to it 'messing' up my own internal gears/levers). That was quite an experience! Glad the rest of my Friday only got a tiny bit more weird..just the right amount, I would say.
-
yo
-
hey!
-
good morning fot
-
I've been meaning to do this 50 posts things for years.
-
Going to take forever though if this verification thing needs to be done every time. Is that a G or a C?
-
It was a C.
-
Listening to the show for the first time since it ended.
-
An early 2007 show. Nice to find that I still enjoy it.
-
It's a great remedy for coping with a break up. Countless hours of listening to distract and entertain.
-
Which is the reason I started listening to the Best Show in the first place, in 2009.
-
History repeating.
-
But to a worse degree. Really thought I'd marry that girl some day.
-
Oh cool, the verification thing went away eventually. That's good.
-
Mayo.
-
M A O
-
No that's Mao.
-
What is?
-
M A O
-
Not even entirely sure what all is in the downloads section.
-
But it'll be great to hear unheard stuff. I've listened to all the archives, some several times, since finding the show.
-
20. This isn't taking that long after all.
-
But it's 2am so I'll finish this tomorrow.
-
Back to work.
-
all right
-
twice
-
thrice.
-
bryce.
-
I miss bryce.
-
I'll finish this tomorrow.
-
Oh and the verification is gone! Good!
-
Those were tremendously hard to read.
-
I'll get to ten and then set this aside for tomorrow.
-
Good night.

Should be sleeping.

Halfway there.
-
Getting closer to the peak...
-
Rolled back down.
-
Feel kinda dumb doing this...but those archives...
-
Should I review the Fogelnest Files here?
-
Because it is pretty great.
-
The Fogelnest Files were sanctioned by Tom if you recall.
-
And with good reason. Jake is a great interviewer and finds some great clips.
-
...
-
Best Show is the reason I got Twitter. I wonder how many more people like that there are out there?

Posting.

Ten more to go I believe.
-
Getting within striking distance.
-
I feel bad burning 50 this way...but this board was a good idea.

Remember twitter's @UtilityLimb advice kids:
pursue creativity until you're too jaded to enjoy what you loved about it to begin with. keep believing there's some answer to life in art.

Nice work
-
Thanks, but I find specific criticism to be the most helpful. What about it was "nice"?
-
haha. I'm sorry. You've caught me in a social nicety. I guess I'm trying to be amicable. There is one thing tho...
-
Bring bring straight things like horses on fire.
-
:o
-
:-\
-
:-*
-
Sometimes
-
I try to do things and it just doesn't work out the way I wanted to.
-
I get real frustrated
-
and I try hard to do it and I take my time and it doesn't work out the way I wanted to.
-
It's like I concentrate real hard and it doesn't work out.
-
Everything I do and everything I try never turns out.
-
It's like I need time to figure these things out.
-
But there's always someone there going:
-
Hey Mike: You know we've been noticing you've been having a lot of problems lately.
You know, maybe you should get away and maybe you should talk about it, maybe you'll feel a lot better
-
And I go:
No it's okay, you know I'll figure it out, just leave me alone I'll figure it out. You know I'll just work by myself.
-
And they go:
Well you know if you want to talk about it I'll be here you know and you'll probably feel a lot better if you talk about it.
-
And I go:
No I don't want to I'm okay, I'll figure it out myself and they just keep bugging me and they just keep bugging me and it builds up inside and it builds up inside.
-
You're gonna be institutionalized
You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes
-
You won't have any say
They'll brainwash you until you see their way.
-
I'm not crazy - institution!
-
You're the one who's crazy - institution!
-
You're driving me crazy - institution!
-
They stuck me in an institution, said it was the only solution to give me the needed professional help, to protect me from the enemy -- myself.
-
I was in my room and I was just like staring at the wall thinking about everything, but then again I was thinking about nothing.
-
And then my mom came in and I didn't even know she was there she called my name, and I didn't even hear it, and then she started screaming: MIKE! MIKE!
-
And I go:
What, what's the matter?
-
And she goes:
What's the matter with you?
-
I go:
There's nothing wrong mom.
-
And she goes:
Don't tell me that, you're on drugs!
-
And I go:
No mom I'm not on drugs I'm okay, I was just thinking you know, why don't you get me a Pepsi.
-
And she goes:
NO you're on drugs!
-
I go:
Mom I'm okay, I'm just thinking.
-
She goes:
No you're not thinking, you're on drugs! Normal people don't act that way!
-
I go:
Mom just give me a Pepsi, please
-
All I wanted is a Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me
-
All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me. Just a Pepsi.
-
They give you a white shirt with long sleeves. Tied around you're back, you're treated like thieves
-
Drug you up because they're lazy. It's too much work to help a crazy.
-
I'm not crazy - institution!
-
You're the one who's crazy - institution!
-
You're driving me crazy - institution!
-
They stuck me in an institution.
-
Said it was the only solution.
-
To give me the needed professional help.
-
To protect me from the enemy - myself.
-
I was sitting in my room and my mom and my dad came in and they pulled up a chair and they sat down, they go:
-
Mike, we need to talk to you.
-
And I go:
Okay what's the matter
-
They go: Me and your mom have been noticing lately that you've been having a lot of problems. You've been going off for no reason and we're afraid you're gonna hurt somebody. We're afraid you're gonna hurt yourself.
-
So we decided that it would be in your interest if we put you somewhere where you could get the help that you need.
-
And I go:
Wait, what are you talking about, we decided!? My best interest?! How can you know what's my best interest is?
-
How can you say what my best interest is? What are you trying to say, I'm crazy? When I went to your schools, I went to your churches, I went to your institutional learning facilities?! So how can you say I'm crazy?
-
They say they're gonna fix my brain, alleviate my suffering and my pain. But by the time they fix my head, mentally I'll be dead.
-
It doesn't matter, I'll probably get hit by a car anyway.

I wasn't sure where this would belong so I'm posting it here. I decided to do the "Ice Bucket Challenge" today. If you have already seen hundreds, my apologies. I have only seen 3 videos so far so I just tried to make mine my own thing.I work at UNL so I challenged the college chancellor Harvey Pearlman. In Nebraska our college football coach is a celebrity so I challenged him(Bo Pelini)and his cat. Last but certainly not least I challenged A.P. Mike. So I figured it would be an apt post for this board. I didn't plan saying any of those names beforehand.
I hope everyone likes it.

Jesus Christ this is tedious

And it's all

So that I can have something interesting to listen to
-
On my commute
-
But doing this on my commute

Is pretty much the opposite

Of interesting
-
Whining a little bit helped

There is a person on this bus cutting her nails
-
Private spaces vs public spaces, people
-
I guess

It's just good

That it is her fingers

And not her toes

She chose to groom in public.

Last Tuesday, I was pushing my son around in his stroller and felt a pang when I remembered that a year ago I probably would have been listening to the Best Show.
-
MacGruber is on TV. Someone said it was funny, but I don't know if I believe them.
-
Liking MacGuyver has destroyed multiple relationships.
-
Uh oh, woke up the spouse.
-
"What are you watching?"
-
"Something on Cinemax."
-
This is a Showtime-household, not Cinemax.
-
"Don't stay up too late. You need to mow the lawn tomorrow."
-
You heard the new New Pornographers yet?
-
It was the pregnancy heartburn, not MacGruber.
-
I did see that Bridge on the River Kwai is going to be on TMC sometime soon. I recorded this instead.
Wonder if Tom ever saw it.
-
He just asked if everyone was strapped in.
-
Bee Gees' "First" is underrated.
-
I don't think many people heard Billy Corgan's cover of "To Love Somebody" on his mid 00s solo album.
-
Jesus, pregnancy heartburn is awful. Not a lot can be done.
-
Ugh, shouldn't have recorded this off Comedy Central.
-
Val Kilmer has seen better days.
-
I broke down and saw Ginn's Black Flag when he came through Cheyenne.
-
Kind of overpriced.
-
They tried to make it an all-ages show at a bar. Unfortunately, that's not legal in this town, so they had to refund all of the under-21 ticket holders.
-
All of the pleasant kids who beat me up in 6th grade were there. They've all got beards like the bassist from Queens of the Stone Age and have brand new Misfits patches on their jackets..
-
The opener was Greg Ginn, a laptop, and some video screens.
-
Some guy in a Slayer shirt said to my wife, "This sucks. Where are the drums?"
-
Greg Ginn was drinking some kind of apple beer.
-
I ran into him outside the restroom after his solo set. I didn't know what to say, so I just said "Good job!" in a cracking voice.
-
It was fun though. I ended up covered in sweat and was sore for several days. But we had to go get the toddler from his grandparents after Damaged II.
-
Things our marriage barely survived: bankruptcy, law school, the ongoing disagreement about whether Led Zeppelin is an amazing band.
-
But she'll still humor me through Greg Ginn's current iteration of Black Flag.
-
In junior high, Zeppelin was the best thing in my life. Then I rejected them in high school because they weren't punk rock.
-
But I came back. Everything after "In Through the Out Door" is kind of a blur.
-
Embarrassing admission: there was a time when I thought "Wearing and Tearing" was still cool because it was supposed to be their take on punk.
I smiled when Tom mentioned this back when recounting that sporkle quiz.
-
When I wanted to be a goth in 9th grade, the musical resources were pretty slim. I had to settle for a mixtape featuring Moonlight Sonata and Billy Joel's "No Man's Land."
-
My dad listened to that damn Billy Joel tape over and over during our summer drives to the west coast.
-
Heaven forbid he let his kid listen to a song off his new Queen tape. Yes, it is called "Kashoggi's Ship." It's some rich guy they were partying with.
-
It got really unbearable when he got an unjust ticket for driving on a closed highway after a police officer had told him it was fine.
-
I don't think I need to hear "Oh yes I aaaammmmmm... an innocennnt maaannnn" ever again.
-
And he beat the ticket in circuit court. It only got worse after that.
-
I am getting excited imagining listening to old episodes without trying to record real audio files and transferring the recordings to my phone.
-
All of my other podcasts are going to build up. Sorry, Ira Glass.
-
I just noticed that this forum software doesn't delete multiple spaces between sentences. Isn't that kind of unusual?
I don't normally use two spaces unless I'm doing something for an elderly partner in our firm. I think I accidentally learned the correct way to type by goofing off and not paying attention during typing class.
-
I don't really care if other people use two spaces, but it aggravates me when someone tries to correct my single spaces.
-
I'm still not sure if I'm doing the numbers above the keys correctly. We never got that far and I just kind of found my own method.
Since doing data entry for an insurance company several years ago, I mostly just use the number pad. Unfortunately, that screws me up when I'm dialing phone numbers, which are the opposite of the number pad.
-
20 minutes left of MacGruber and I've almost made it to 50 posts. I didn't get any real work done or clean the house, but this has been a productive evening.
-
No one I know in real life understands how happy this makes me.
-
I need to watching Staying Alive again. That's probably the most I have enjoyed a movie in a long time.
-
"All true language is incomprehensible, like the chatter of a beggar's teeth." (Antonin Artaud)
-
I don't really care if other people use two spaces, but it aggravates me when someone tries to correct my single spaces.
With you on this.
-
i only had 3 :(
-
Do I get a second yellow square when I get to 50?
-
Christ this is going to take forever
-
Ooo! after 3 I don't have to answer security questions
-
now if I could only get it to redirect back to the thread so I don't have to click the topic every time.

Don't give up. It's worth it!
-
I made mayonnaise!
-
So I went on vacation this summer.
-
I went to visit Yellowstone, Old Faithful and The Grand Tetons.
-
But my real goal on this vacation.
-
Was to do the Frankie Teardrop Challenge.
-
I drove from Lincoln Nebraska to Denver Colorado in a straight 7 hour drive.
-
In Denver I stayed at my friends place. He would be doing the driving the rest of the trip.
-
While his apartment was decorated well, it was no place for The Frankie Teardrop Challenge.
-
I would have to wait for more scenic and creepy territory.
-
So we left Denver the next day, in route to Wyoming.
-
It was a straight drive, our mutual friend is a race horse trainer, was waiting for us in Wyoming.
-
This drive to Wyoming was scenic, but not creepy. Even the place we spent the night wasn't creepy enough for the FTC.
-
I knew I would have to take the challenge in the most desolate creepy place we could find to camp at.
-
So the 3 of us took off the next day.
-
We zigged and zagged through Utah, Wyoming and Idaho. All very beautiful states.
-
We set up our first camp at Grand Teton State Park. This was a mistake.
-
The place was littered with people.
-
Hardly creepy or desolate. I couldn't take the challenge here. I was sure Tom could compare doing it there to the guy who did it in his break room.
-
So I hoped the next night we could find a better spot.
-
The next day was full of the normal tourist type stops.
-
The Tetons were impressive.
-
Old Faithful was in fact late. It was exactly what you would expect.
-
Just a lot of hot water.
-
So after seeing the sights we decided to find a decent, less populated camping spot.
-
We had to search, but finally we found the perfect spot. With the Tetons in the distance.
-
I figured this would be the perfect Frankie Teardrop spot.
-
Unfortunately for the sake of the challenge. We pulled a Philly Boy Roy and we ate some shrooms.
-
It started off hopeful. I had my friends listen to The Bryce calls in to request Frank Zappa from Best Show Gems. They enjoyed it but they wanted to listen to music. Luckily it was Syd era Floyd.
-
The night was fun but the next day as I awoke I realized I had neglected to do the Frankie Teardrop Challenge. I had really dropped the ball. Luckily I knew there was one more night of camping.
-
So the day was another adventure of zigs and zags around the Idaho/Wyoming/Utah border. We dropped my friend off back with his race horses in Wyoming and set off to head back to Colorado.
-
We drove through Utah and planned on camping around the Colorado/Utah border. I knew this would be my last shot to find a good place to do Frankie Teardrop.
-
The camping spot was perfect. Desolate. Miles away from anyone and in a desert setting. It was close to dusk and the spot got creepier as it got darker. I knew once the sun set it would be time to finally take the challenge.
-
The camping spot was perfect. Desolate. Miles away from anyone and in a desert setting. It was close to dusk and the spot got creepier as it got darker. I knew once the sun set it would be time to finally take the challenge.
This is compelling. Please, go on.
-
I had told my friend about The Frankie Teardrop Challenge. He was interested. So we found some speakers yo connect to my phone. We planned on walking into the dark, far away from our camp site, then blasting Frankie as we walked in the Utah darkness.
-
So dark hit and we were ready. We had a massive fire going and while the effects of the shrooms were long gone, the left over weirdness one feels the day after a trip still remained. I wondered why I was getting nervous. I had heard clips of Frankie Teardrop on The Best Show , but I had never listened to the entire song. I saved it for the challenge. So left our campsite, speakers in hand. Once we were far from the fire light I pushed play. My friend had never heard the song so he had no idea what to expect. So as it played we walked along this dark desert. We kept hearing things like branches breaking. As we kept walking it got creepier and creepier. Neither of us ran when the screams began but my friend dropped the speakers. I must admit we got pretty freaked out. But the last couple screams made us laugh. But right before the song ended we both thought we heard some big cracking sound so we walked more briskly back to the campsite. So This is my 50th post and my Frankie Teardrop Challenge story. I can't figure out how to post a picture or else I would have tried to post a pic of the campsite so you have an idea of the landscape. I hope Fredericks enjoyed the story. I wasn't going to Post Burn but I wanted to tell my FTC story. Thanks FOTS.

I don't know if I can link a picture from my Facebook but if this works this is a picture of where I did The Frankie Teardrop Challenge.(https://fbcdn-photos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/v/t1.0-0/10530753_10152650242814954_2025942940071763644_n.jpg?oh=b74ad3b0fba2d82ad67d39dd1cba6206&oe=546EDE92&__gda__=1417773700_86483c7f0d6574b27fe63972f2131318)

They found a headless body in Park County last year. Teton County might be safer.

Beautiful. Love the glow of the fire in the picture.

i went to prospect park today
-
43
I walked a 5k for a political prisoner benefit
-
42
I made mayo-less potato salad for the picnic after the 5k
-
41
i saw guardians of the galaxy a few times this month
-
40
being somewhat familiar with the comics, i was really longing for the best show when i found out vin deisel was playing the voice of groot.
-
39
i mean, the guy says the same three words over and over again throughout the movie save for the one minor alteration before he dies
-
38
they couldn't just get a non-famous voice actor to do that? how much money did that clown make for that, I'm guessing 10 minute session, in the recording booth.
-
37
great movie though. i would say its my favorite marvel studios movies thus far.
-
36
and out of those 10 min vin deisel was in the booth, at least half the time had to be him sipping muscle milk between takes
-
35
i think its a safe bet that he was wearing sunglasses while recording his line
-
34
i miss the best show so much
-
33
it was such an important part of my week, especially when i went through shitty times
-
32
i hope that whatever form it returns will work out for tom. i hope we would all agree that we owe him big time.
-

With you on that.

no show h, in radio, television, or podcasting has ever brought me more joy
-

i've been streaming it like crazy when im home since i cant download them off here yet.
-
29
i did re-listen to the 6 hr extravaganza last night and today while i was prepping for the 5K, which was called running down the walls hosted by the nyc anarchist black cross to those who may be interested
-
28
that julie from cincy show within the show was absolutely hilarious
-
27
she kept hanging up on folks with the same epic timing that tom has
-
26...
i am 26!
-
25
i have to catch up on TCGS
-
24
i went to the first live taping post pilot-taping.
-
23
it was the one where the human fish gets waxed
-
22
i only saw a handful of episodes after that before i got a new job that prevented me from watching it live.
-
21
it was the first, and only one since, that i went to see be broadcast
-
20
thats a great show. seen every episode prior to what i'm up to now. including the 12 hour election special
-
19
i think that chris is great tv host because of vulnerability and honesty, which seems to be the source of a lot of his humor
-
18
the episode that tom was on was good. it didn't seem to be their most planned out episode but tom was great on it
-
17
when larry da perv called in to mnn, the look on toms face was priceless.
-
16
i wouldve really loved to have seen what tom and chris put together for ifc
-
15
i saw the first few episodes of the garfunkel and oates show that ifc picked up at around the same time they were probably reviewing tom and chris' show...
-
14
... It's not for me.
-
13
It's not that i don't like music in comedy. i enjoyed flight of the conchords...
-
12
i'ts just that knowing that show may have been a factor on them passing on the tom and chris show drives me crazy.
-
11
shit. the woman with whom im married just walked in. ill be back later to finish my post burn
-
Beautiful. Love the glow of the fire in the picture.
Thanks Fredericks! I am glad you enjoyed the story and picture. My Frankie Teardrop story is ok but want anticlimactic. It would have been better had we got attacked instead of just hearing weird sounds. But the picture at least gives a sense of the creepiness of the place.

Well, I ain't no monkey; I can't climb no tree.
No brown skin woman gonna make no monkey out of me.
Yeah, I ain't no monkey, Sure can't climb no tree.
Ah, I've been mistreated, babe, I believe I'll shake 'em on down.
Well, I've been mistreated babe, I believe I'll shake 'em on down.

I'm gonna shoot her now?

[Will I Am]
Listen up you all, 'cause this is it
The beat that I'm bangin' is delicious
[Verse 1 - Fergie]
Fergalicious definition make them boys go loco
They want my treasure so they get their pleasures from my photo.
You could see me, you can't squeeze me.
I ain't easy, I ain't sleazy.
I got reasons why I tease 'em.
Boys just come and go like seasons.
[Hook 1]
Fergalicious (so delicious)
But I ain't promiscuous.
And if you were suspicious,
All that shit is fictitious.
I blow kisses (mmmwwahhh)
That puts them boys on rock, rock.
And they be lining down the block just to watch what I got (four, tres, two, uno)
[Chorus]
So delicious (it's hot, hot)
So delicious (I put them boys on rock, rock)
So delicious (they wanna slice of what I got)
I'm Fergalicious (t-t-t-t-t-tasty, tasty)
[Verse 2]
Fergalicious def-,
Fergalicious def-,
Fergalicious def- ["def" is echoing]
Fergalicious definition make them boys go crazy.
They always claim they know me,
Comin' to me call me Stacy (Hey, Stacy),
I'm the F to the E, R, G, the I, the E,
And can't no other lady put it down like me.
[Hook 2]
I'm Fergalicious (so delicious)
My body stay vicious
I be up in the gym just working on my fitness
He's my witness (oh, wee)
I put yo' boy on rock, rock
And he be lining down the block just to watch what I got (four, tres, two, uno)
[Chorus]
So delicious (it's hot, hot)
So delicious (I put them boys on rock, rock)
So delicious (they wanna slice of what I got)
I'm Fergalicious (hold, hold, hold, hold, hold up, check it out)
[Vamp]
Baby, baby, baby,
If you really want me,
Honey get some patience.
Maybe then you'll get a taste.
I'll be tasty, tasty,
I'll be laced with lacey.
It's so tasty, tasty,
It'll make you crazy.
[Will I Am]
T to the A, to the S T E Y - girl, you're tasty, T to the A to the S T E Y - girl, you're tasty
D to the E, to the L I C I O U S, to the D, to the E, to the, to the, to the, hit it Fergie
[Rap - Fergie]
All the time I turn around brother's gather round always looking at me up and down looking at my (uh)
I just wanna say it now - I ain't trying to round up drama, little mama I don't wanna take your man.
And I know I'm coming off just a little bit conceited and I keep on repeating how the boys wanna eat it.
But I'm tryin' to tell, that I can't be treated like clientele
'Cause they say she...

-
In all jazz, and especially the blues, there is something tart and ironic, authoritative and double-edged.
-
White Americans seem to feel that happy songs are happy and sad songs are sad, and that, God help us, is exactly the way most white Americans sing them—sounding, in both cases, so helplessly, defenselessly fatuous that one dare not speculate on the temperature of the deep freeze from which issue their brave and sexless little voices.
-
Only people who have been “down the line,” as the song puts it, know what this music is about…. White Americans do not understand the depths out of which such an ironic tenacity comes, but they suspect that the force is sensual, and they are terrified of sensuality, and do not any longer understand it.
-
The word “sensual” is not intended to bring to mind quivering dusky maidens or priapic black studs. I am referring to something much simpler and much less fanciful.
-
To be sensual, I think, is to respect and rejoice in the force of life, of life itself, and to be present in all that one does, from the effort of loving to the breaking of bread. (James Baldwin)

OK
-
But I want to get to 50...
-
So here I go...
-
I am so excited about the return of the Best Show
-
I want to dive into the archive and listen to some of the old stuff../
-
A few months ago I came across a link to download some mp3s
-
I downloaded some 2004-2005 shows
-
I've been burning through those on my walk to and from work and on runs
-
It's fascinating to see how the show developed
-
I believe this is the era when Tom figured out he needed to hang up on bad callers without mercy
-
It is so great to listen to it evolve
-
I've almost used up all the downloads I found
-
And I cannot find that link again...
-
I just spent an hour going through my search history to find the link
-
No dice
-
So here I am doing this thing that I always resisted doing
-
OK, I'm at 25 now
-
Just
-
Got
-
to keep
-
going
-
I can't wait to sign up for the new show
-
It's amazing how much this thing becomes part of your life
-
I can't believe it's been almost a year since it's been gone
-
I love those three posters Tom released with the announcement
-
I
-
am
-
so
-
excited
-
for
-
the
-
return
-
I wonder if Tom gets a notification every time someone posts in this thread
-
That would be so tedious
-
OK I am at 43. I think I can do this...
-
I am so close
-
so so so close
-
I
-
love
-
the
-
best
-
show

I was enthused to hear Michael Kupperman on the Best Show a while ago. I'm a big fan, especially of Snake 'n' Bacon's Cartoon Cavalcade.
-
I wonder what the Newbridge world would look like through an M. Kupperman lense. Probably pretty sweet.
-
Apparently it looks like this:

In 'A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again',
-
originally commissioned and published by Harper's magazine,
-
David Foster Wallace describes his time aboard the Celebrity Cruises vessel MV Zenith.
-
His experience,
-
as the title might suggest,
-
was not an overwhelmingly positive one,
-
but it did result in a memorable and widely read essay that remains among his most popular pieces of non-fiction.
-
In it,
-
he describes a number of attributes of the cruise ship,
-
a few of which I will discuss below.
-
In particular,
-
I am interested in the Zenith as the embodiment of a corporate construct;
-
Wallace's description of its true nature in relation to the former;
-
and the ship as it relates to the human transcendence of death.
-
The Zenith is one of a number of similar “big white ships that blot out most of the sky”,
-
its vastness such that Wallace “cannot convey the … surreal scale of everything”,
-
whose passengers are welcomed aboard with all things “Gucci, Waterford and Wedgwood, Rolex and Raymond Weil”.
-
Every whim of each passenger is tended to by smiling staff so that they want for nothing,
-
and Wallace reflects that the last time this was so,
-
he was in the womb.
-
This idyllic “experience is being not described [by the ship's brochures] but evoked”;
-
a corporate construction of reality beamed straight from the brochures onto the outer world.
-
Luxury and escapism are not positive attributes,
-
however.
-
The cruise ship is for Wallace “like a kind of floating palace, majestic and terrible”;
-
the extravagance is undermined by a sense of the sinister and dreadful.
-
The corporate nature of the Zenith is perhaps best captured in the Frank Conroy essay in the ship's brochure;
-
an “alternate reality” of “smiles [and] handshakes” in which stressful realities are “a distant memory”.
-
Conroy's earlier writing had,
-
in part,
-
inspired Wallace to become a writer,
-
and he is now appalled by Conroy's willingness to engage with the corporate world and with the blurring of lines between advertising and writing as an artform.
-
That Conroy's essay is not presented as an advertisement is “sinister [in] the cumulative effect that such dishonesty has on us” and it therefore “causes despair”.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/AHKcBBL.gif)
-
Lurking beneath the illusory facade of consumerism is another reality occasionally glimpsed.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/ttYEorU.gif)
-
It is one in which a hierarchy of staff work tirelessly and fearfully,
-
(http://i.imgur.com/DSKCKLL.gif)
-
their performances evaluated by hard-nosed supervisors with “evaluation sheets”,
-
(http://i.imgur.com/kaRoKZL.gif)
-
their work conditions a “reign of Hellenic terror” and who depend on the tips of kindly passengers to make a living.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/L73xZqt.gif)
-
(http://i.imgur.com/CRR7V1X.gif)
-
(http://i.imgur.com/PSqXjzq.gif)
-
It is a reality in which the corrosive ocean water causes rust that is hastily covered up with white paint,
-
in which seasickness induces vomiting that is masked by “Wet/Dry vacs and spot-remover and all-trace-of-odor eradicator chemicals”;
-
a reality that exists parallel to the other one depicted in the glossy brochures.
-
Wallace is aware of both of them at once,
-
and his prose has to it the surreal quality of cognitive dissonance,
-
like two musical notes that,
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Dfld1s9.gif)
-
when played simultaneously,
-
produce a jarring and discordant sound.

In terms of

All the way up

To a grand total

To

Whoops

I meant,

"of"
-
a grand total of
-
fifty posts
-
on this board
-
Getting

There

Slowly

Surely

It's
-
Only
-
A
-
Matter
-
Of
-
Time
-
At
-
This
-
Point
-
Well,
-
Time
-
and
-
effort
-
and
-
patience
-
too,
-
come
-
to

So really,

A matter

Nothing matters, the past is the past, the future can’t be planned, the present is now, so we must live in the now, but what is now? At best we will still lose, that’s just the fact of how it is, nothing is attained forever, for all will be lost. So what’s the point, will there ever be true freedom?
I don’t know what do, or what I want, salvation maybe? Perhaps, but as a friend told me, I’m in the rabbit hole now.

If you feel the burning need to get to fifty, don't pollute the rest of the board. Do it in here!
But DONT GET ALL MEAN and CHANNY! If you do, you will never get to the promised land!

Apropos of nothing, is there some sort of Space Champion luxury lounge?

What happens at 50 posts?
You can access the Downloads section of the board, which is a pretty nice treasure chest. However, if you can be just a little patient and make real posts to get to 50, you'll probably feel a lot better about yourself.

I used to post on message boards all the time. Then I stopped, and then message boards stopped being as much of a thing. Then it was 2014 and I became the world's most recent huge fan of The Best Show and now maybe I'll become a guy who looks at a message board again. Except I'm listening from the beginning and probably won't be up to date for like, years.
-
This is, what, post #5? I can probably burn my way up to 50 today.

What's a Plantar Fasciitis?

Jogger's heel???? Oh that's not cool
-
What's the song (or maybe it's just background music and not even a song) that plays during the background all the time in at least the early episodes? No clue whether that lasts forever or is just a 2000 thing. I'll ask this somewhere else later probably, but may as well put it here now. I've got space to kill.
-
We do look similar, what with me being a slightly overweight, white British dude.
-
Also there was a song called "Coco" by a band called "Coco" and I loved it but can't find any other references to it. I think it was in the Star Wars episode.

I believe it is a Trans Am song. Tom sometimes claims it is him.
-
Is it the one that goes ''dur dur du du der der" on and on? i think that's Trans Am...if not, i'll have to go and have a listen
-
Is that Fredericks? Hello there!
-
There was also a song Called Coco by British glam group, Sweet - which was ...... errrr .... not that good.
-
Yeah, it's Enforcer by Trans Am from their debut mini album, from 1996
-
Ok, this is my 22nd post - will carry on tomorrow. Bye for now.
-
Thanks!

Thanks! I'm gonna find that and make sure it's the right thing.
-
Yep! That's it!
-
It's so good. And perfect as background music for a radio show.
-
Wow, I'm 60$ of the way there already.
-
I meant 60%, but left the typo so I could correct it in another post.

i'm listening to a shitty podcast and my next few posts will be the next thing i hear in it.
-
"poses to society"
-
"did you know"
-
"under the white house's faith-based initiatives"
-
"and associate editor"
-
that ended up not being that fun.
-
just trying to mix it up
-
i'm in the 40s, may as well wrap this thing up
-
shoutout to grandpas
-
kinda wish i were more than like 10 episodes in so i could make more show references
-
i don't really know what sticks around and what goes away after the early days
-
i wish hot rockin' ronnie had his own tv show
-
i'm a little bit surprised i never listened to this show in like 2000 or early 2001
-
i probably just hadn't heard of it
-
i was vaguely aware wfmu existed, i think
-
i actually did it!
-
"poses to society"
I like this post.

And this one.

the under-50 post counters.

This might be my first post to a message board since 2004
-
I stand corrected. I guess that was my 2nd. This is now my 3rd
-
Give or take.
-
I started burning posts in 2009.
-
I am on page 1 of this 639 page topic.
-
Nearly 6 years later I'm getting around to finishing up.
-
I highly recommend reading it in its entirety.

A lot's happened in those 6 years.

That's all I have left! 5!

Then you'll be chilling in here alone.

I wonder if I'll come back.

See if I recognize this old thread.

Throw some numbers out there for people.

Just me and "the void" now.
-
It's not so bad in solitary.
-
I can experiment with all of the functions and colors. For instance, TELETYPE
-
Or, BLUE TELETYPE
-
Sometimes words look awesomer with DROP SHADOW
-
SuperSCRIPT

Sup, Subscript?

Still 21 posts to go!

I will do this!

do

this
-
Does anyone actually read this topic for insightful debate?
-
I hope not
-
As they would be utterly disappointed
-
I love the show and would hate people to think that i'm doing this just for the archive
-
I'm not...really not
-
But, as a completist
-
I would hate to miss out on things i don't have
-
oooh, just 9 away now!
-
Gosh, i'm sleepy
-
I'm on a different time zone from most people here.
-
Gotta go to work soon
-
Oh goodness, i'm close
-
Maybe i'm Glenn Close, the actress
-
I'm not, of course
-
Wonder what she's doing now?
-
Could check wiki, i suppose
-
Or i could just hit 50 posts!!!!!!!!!
-
Hmmm, no alarms went off and nobody shook my hand :'(
-
I am the back end of a policeman's foot tho - let's go see what secrets have been revealed.
-
Does anyone actually read this topic for insightful debate?
I am just seeing who is creative and who is utilitarian.
-
Who is "Fredericks"?
-
Fredericks is a guy who calls some radio show or other. He lives in Lionel Richie and burns dreidels when Hanukkah is over, i think. I might be wrong though.

Thanks for helping out a newbie! I'll have to see if I can learn more about him.
-
Would really love to be sleeping right now, but I can see through my eyelids.
-
Anyone else have a full on argument with their significant other because they had a lot of unexpected feelings after listening to the last best show. I have a very understanding SO.
-
so many posts left to burn
-
wish i had discovered the best show earlier than 2 years ago, i would have got this s hit done already

Posting this because I need to get to 50. I think I'm at 4. One every five minutes or so and I will get there. Does the verification ever stop being a part of it?
-
Yep, when you reach 5 posts! Fooled me, too.
-
:-*
-
I hate that I'm doing this again.
-
The worst part is that it takes you back to the home page after each post. Oh- there's a return to this topic checkbox!
-
Way better!
-
I've been listening to old archives lately from 2008

Does the constant verification go away?

Ah, perhaps you just need to clear 5 posts, then they trust you're a person. Achievement unlocked!

I am not sure how I feel about the Syvester Stalone podcast.
-
The game is that Sly is not involved.
-
So each day Scheer makes some excuses for why Sly hasn't showed up.
-
The joke is funny for a second but how long do they plan on sustaining?
-
Or, is it just a quick publicity/subscriber grab for his new "network"?
-
If so, I suppose mission accomplished, right? I listened.
-
But I'm a fan of Scheer in general (FOT) and would have been curious without that stunt.
-
I hope the long con is that Sly actually will be involved.
-
I think that would actually make for a nice button.
-
Am I wishing too much?
-
I do wish best of luck to P.S.'s new venture.
-
And hope they manage to add something decent to the world of podcasts.
-
(but, boy, there's a lot of one-note jokecasts in the initial lineup)
-
OK, rant done.
-
But I think you can pass on the Sly podcast.

Oh. Hey. I'd like to talk to Tom.
-
I gotta make some changes...
-
Tom?
-
I have one for the topic...
-
Ugghkhghhughg
-
It's form like a few weeks ago, but I have a candidate for the hate pit...
-
Tom?
-
I was wondering if you saw the new Insane Clown posse Juggalo Gathering video...
-
Can I get the DVD without donating to FMU?
-
Is Dave Emory a real guy?

I feel like I may be an unwitting puppet of the Islamo-fascist Regime...

-
That LA podacast that has the same five comedians all the time...lol
-
"BroLoko"
-
Saw Tom at the Andy Kindler show at Union Hall this weekend.
-
Was a good show.
-
Anyone hear about this Serial podcast?
-
What's the deal with this Bormann Group?
strangely enough, dave emory is what got me into WFMU. so I kinda found the best show via dave emory...
-

good times. while i tuned into wfmu often, i regularly tuned into dave E-M-O-R-Y. i used to work tuesday nights, but on occasion, when i had the night off, i'd let it roll and would catch the best show. in time, i was hooked. so yeah, i too found my way to the show via dave emory. small world.
-
so there's that.
-
recently i started listening to a thing called "the paracast..."
-
it's pretty weeudh.
-
it's on the same "network" that Mancow "brodcasts" on.
-
it's hosted by some dude who is clearly a radio dude. gene.
-
gene steinberg.
-
he's written a number of tech books.
-
he's all about apple. ithis and ithat
-
he's also two books into a scifi trilogy...
-
the first is titled, Attack of the Rockoids. you can find it on amazon.
-
the second is, "Rockoids II: The Coming of the Protectors"
srsly
-
also, the tag for The Paracast is, "The gold-standard of paranormal radio."
i s-hit you not.
-
there are lots of commercials for bunker-minded folk...
-
chief among the is "The fireeze dried guy" who sells all manner of freeze dried food. gourmet type stuff...
no kidding. google "freeze dry guy"
-
then there are the various gold merchants. in truth, i kinda think i may want to buy some gold. they kind of make a good case for abandoning "fiat currency".
-
but the true gold is listening to gene steinberg bending and flexing his voice to read most of the "spots".
-
i'm entertained, but at the same time tip my hat to the guy.
-
he's hustling. he clearly loves doing radio. i have little doubt that he does most of the selling and pitching to advertisers.
-
one of the things that appealed to me most when i started listening to tom was his obvious admiration for radio and those who made it so greatly compelling.
-
this guy gene clearly loves the medium.
-
and he clearly works hard to maintain a radio-like standard in a podcast world.
-
he hits "hard breaks" even if it means interrupting a guest.
-
he refers to sponsors as "paying the bills"
-
despite the obvious fact that 50% of the spots are for businesses he owns.
-
radio is a beautiful thing.
-
then there are the various gold merchants. in truth, i kinda think i may want to buy some gold. they kind of make a good case for abandoning "fiat currency".
You are winning me over. Snag some for me. I'm good for it.
-
How many posts do I have? That few?
-
I should have taken on this task some time ago.
-
In hindsight, I wish I would have done something to offer more to the community.
-
Then again, why should this be any different from real life?
-
I am over-apologizing for using a function that is clearly made available for this purpose.
-
My handle, Veal Cutlet, comes from a Mel Brooks movie of which I can't recall the title.
-
In the film, a demented Sid Caesar asks nobody in particular, "Who ordered the veal cutlet?"
-
Come on. Just three more. You can do it.
-
Whereas I only have 5 posts now. Quite a ways to go.
-
Kitty,
Let's race.
-
Burn #1! Bombs away . . .
-
This feels horribly insincere to just post like this . . .
-
but away we go
-
i guess that's really the point of this thread?
-
i can't wait until the captcha finally goes away
-
ahh! 5 is indeed the magic number
-
this should go a heck of a lot quicker now
-
it helps working nights, alone, with minimal supervision
-
so i guess i'm kind of killing 2 birds with 1 stone
-
i'm upping my post count and killing time until suirise and i can go home
-
not to mention that supposedly we're less than 24 hours away from some kind of new best show-ness
-
i thought Guardians of the Galaxy was overrated
-
but the Wire, on the other hand, is sensational
-
i'm not too late to the party if i just finally watched season 1 in the last 2 weeks, right?
-
it's pretty remarkable how long this takes
-
even once the captcha (or whatever) finally goes away
-
so now it's just a race between my fingers . . .
-
and when my patient wakes up and i have to attend to him
-
and the worst part is that once i'm done work, do i just go home and go to sleep like normal?
-
or do i stay up, put a new thermostat in the van . . .
-
and wait for Gary the squirrel to return?
-
it was my birthday 3 days ago
-
i have mice in my house
-
in the summer we survived a ladybug infestation
-
no fun
-
so . . . Sony pictures, huh?
-
saw gone girl this week. again, i was underwhelmed.
-
i kept feeling like i was missing something
-
there were such drastic shifts in tone
-
but sadly it's the first Fincher film i don't feel compelled to rewatch
-
more than halfway . . .
-
i also have to clean the gutters tomorrow too
-
and rake the yard
-
but then on Sunday I'm gonna go see Mummenschantz
-
which i've probably misspelled
-
but nobody knows what i'm talking about anyway
-
i'm not done my christmas shopping
-
my dog ate my breakfast
-
i beat my father-in-law in 9 ball
-
my sister-in-law's father-in-law thinks the earth is hollow
-
and that aliens and ufo's
-
actually come from inside the earth
-
and come out of the oceans
-
i love talking to him at holiday gatherings
-
i'm the only person that does
-
ooooh! i'm close . . .

I just realized I was posting happy things to the other chats to get involved and to get closer to my 50...nobody needs a barrage of pleasantries subconsciously motivated by selfishness...I'm going to try and get some of that out of my system here...

This doesn't feel good...

I once learned how to write my own scripting language via XML. It probably doesn't work for me to try to define what this forum is.
</discourse>
-
Goofy synth music on Tom's Livestream feed. Sounds like John Tesh trying to sound like Daft Punk.
-
I've never heard John Tesh's music. I should mention that.
-
Maybe John Tesh's music is good.
-
I'm sure it's not good.
-
Daft Punk isn't even good.
-
I wonder who's playing in the Newbridge Bowl this year. I assume it'll be televised on the Shout Network.
-
Can't wait for Christmas, y'all.
-
Favorite holiday of the year.
-
Ohhhhh boy, the food.
-
The friends.
-
The FAMILY.
-
This year I bought a wreath because I can't fit a Christmas tree in my apartment. 8)
-
I liked that Destroyer song that Tom played in his intro.
-
Put it in my spotify playlist under "walking songs"
-
I'll be walking later tonight so I'm now looking forward to that. 8)
-
Gotta work tomorrow, maybe I'll add that Destroyer song to my "work" playlist.

just a couple more to not look so needy
-
yup
-
not to disparage any of the fine folks within this apparently useful thread, but I refuse to cheapen an already trivial experience, in an attempt to raise my postcount to a level which unlocks, what I can only assume to be golden riches. I won't pretend to be The Best Poster, nor the most prolific (look at that buffguy over there), but I can at least try to contribute, albeit with a half-hearted effort at spell-checking, and often with long blocks of words, that very rarely make cohesive sense.
as far as I can tell, this is a board dedicated to THE BEST Show, and as a Fan of The Best Show, or Friend of Tom (if only in the virtual sense), I feel it my allegiant duty to put forth such an effort in homage to all the hard work that's been practically GIVEN to me. we're talking about people who are the FP of FP's, and yet, slobs that we are, a two-syllable sentence, or one-word phrase is all we try to put on the plate.
I may not own a Gorch t-shirt, nor even the one that says "NEWBRIDGE IS FOR LOVERS" (although a guy here at work wears both), but I will not debase myself even further by muttered snippets.
I will blather until the forum's wonky formatting prevents me from seeing my words, which is right about now....
EDIT: MORE WORDS
-
I thought this was a board dedicated to people who are overly aware of, if not exactly fans of, the rock group KISS. Imagine my embarrassment!
And to think I posted 5,706 times in the past three months without knowing. What a maroon!

i've never been happy calling myself a fan of KISS. i really like the phrase "overly aware of". thank you
-
your loquacious adoration of the rock group KISS is nothing to be ashamed of. they helped a lot of slobs get through their miserable, workaday lives.
me? I have over 20,000 posts on a message board devoted to a now-defunct art-noise band on the Matador Records label. then again, they had a much sexier bass player than Gene Simmons, if you can believe that.
-
I feel that it's worth mentioning that, of those 20,000+ posts, maybe 3, or 4, were actually about the band; the rest, calculatingly devised to stir the hive.
are we there yet? have I reached that fabled leprechaun's treasure that awaits me at 50 posts? what is the percentage of posters that stop once they reach that point?
that won't be me. I'm in this for the long run. I know how to post. [alt+s]

Keep going! What's your ultimate goal? I ask to give you another good reason to post.
-
unless I get banned for posting videos of a diminutive Paul McCartney crooning out his latest hit to video game characters, I'd say.....TOTAL DOMINATION.
that's the right answer, isn't it?
as a FAN FOR LIFE, I'd say the next best answer would be "as long as the internet holds out". I give it another 3-4 years. after that, you'll be beaming my posts straight into your hot and waiting amygdalas via Googlegoggles3.0.
-
Never really dug KISS. Not my thing. Just always seemed like style over substance.
I'm willing to live and let live, though. I can coexist with Paul Stanley, provided he brings the Folgers.
-
Which makes me wonder which rock star would make the best coffee. Any number of them would have considerable expertise when it comes to stimulants from Colombia.

i like when fancy restaurants try to make shitty food elegant. like they try to sell you a high-end corndog for like 22 dollars. they usually just put truffle oil on it somewhere. im standin outside the restaurant eatin' a $1.50 footlong with a smiling mouthshape and sack full of $20.50 in pennies

slice open a can of carrots and pour it into a pan for the commercially-sized oven to stimulate hot. display the carrots out for the lunchtime schoolchildren and then throw them all away at 2PM after the last session. the kids prefer fried potates. repeat every day.

necessity is the mother of invention. invention's father thinks that invention is making a mistake, and should revert back to the old ways of doing things. invention doesn't listen to him, but this decision costs invention his relationship with his father. it pains him his entire life but he rarely speaks of it.

she left a marigold on her pillowtop before she left. it's as if she wanted to force me to watch something die. and as time added wilt to the fluffy petals, my hope that she would return withered in tow. until all at once i was left with a hardened stem. what once delivered sustenance now crumbles further with each visit. two pieces, three pieces, four. this is hardly the organism i remember. this is hardly what i built.

I'm currently on hold, waiting for a conference call to start
-
it was supposed to start 5 minutes ago, but now I'm wondering if maybe its cancelled.
-
What's the standard wait before I should say screw it and hang up?
-
Other things I'm thinking about are:
-
Disco Demolition Night and other weird baseball attendance promotions
-
when can I drive to Missouri and pick up a six pack of Oberon?
-
Should Bell's really have made such a fuss over Innovation Brewing's name?
-
Headaches are terrible
-
Swimming in the river
-
how did the first person to use flour in figure out how to do that?
-
Craig Sheffer music videos
-
okay screw it, I'm hanging up from this "conference call"
-
does anyone in these forums, bored on a weeknight, read through this thread?
-
like, would it even matter if I posted my social security number and credit card information in one of these posts?
-
I'm not actually going to do that, because I bet some wiseacre from Newbridge would steal it
-
Is this 50 post thing actually a myth?
-
it was supposed to start 5 minutes ago, but now I'm wondering if maybe its cancelled.

The curiosity is killing me

don't mine me

*mind, don't MIND me
-
am I doing this reply stuff wrong? I don't want it to load a new page after I post. Even Quick Reply seems to reload the forum index?
-
In other news, since starting listening to The Best Show, I now have my wife and 10 year old daughter also invested in listening to the show
-
We're nearly done with disc 5 of the box set
-
I feel like we're only at the tip of the iceberg
-
So while I've promised to not listen to the box set while I'm at work/without them, I'm catching up on some of the newer episodes
-
re: M*A*S*H*
Are we talking strictly about the television show or does it also include the movie?
-
With Quick-Reply you can write a post when viewing a topic without loading a new page. You can still use bulletin board code and smileys as you would in a normal post.
Seriously, I'm calling BS
-
Maybe I'll check out forum settings or something.
-
I'm hoping that while searching through various options, that maybe I'll discover a secret wormhole that will transport me to another dimension
-
Billy Joel, does suck, by the way
-
Did anyone see the Thunder/Spurs game last night? I feel so terrible.
-
I guess I'm just a tool about the quick reply, new page thing. I understand now.
-
but I still wish it wouldn't reload the forum index.
-
why not just reload the thread and show the post?
-
Does anyone else here like beer?
-
Which is better, a turtle or a frog
-
I vote turtle. I have a pet turtle. His name is Taco
-
Frogs are cool because they have long tongues or whatever, but have you seen a turtle eat? It's pretty cool.
-
We found Taco in our yard one morning, and it obviously belonged to someone else because someone had painted a bowtie with nail polish on his shell.
-
But we kept him because HEY IF YOU CAN'T KEEP AN EYE ON A DAMN TURTLE, YOU DON'T DESERVE IT
-
Seriously, how do you lose a turtle. Newsflash: they are pretty slow.
-
I will say that it is very important to wash your hands after handling them though, you can definitely get sick from them.
-
We also own 2 dogs, 2 parakeets and 1 goldfish in addition to the turtle.
-
the goldfish was won at a fair a couple of years ago, and it was really tiny and black.
-
But now it's a good 4 or 5 inches long and totally gold. I had no idea that goldfish could change colors.

Exposed Aggregate Concrete Trash Cans are a great alternative to metal or plastic outdoor waste receptacles. With concrete you can add that decorative touch and still achieve your waste containment needs. Best of all concrete will last an extremely long time while still holding its visual appeal. Metal can rust while plastic can crack or fade. High capacity concrete trash cans stay where you put them. Most weigh 200lbs or more. This is a very real and important aspect. The last thing you want is some vandal stealing your trash container. Thus concrete waste receptacles are highly theft proof. Not even the toughest strong man is going to just pick it up and walk off with it. Most of them also include a lid cable to attach the lid to the container also preventing theft of the lid.
-
When choosing a concrete trash can there are a few options to consider. First of all there is the finish. You can opt for the most popular which is exposed aggregate or a more contemporary textured weatherstone look, both of which are available in a variety of choices to match any decor. Exposed aggregate is what you will mostly find at various businesses or park settings. They consist of a pebbled rough surface. Weatherstone's textured finish gives the trash container a slightly more decorative appeal. Another thing to consider is if you would like a rigid plastic liner for the inside of the unit. Most of the receptacles include a bag fix system allowing the user to use normal trash bags to hold the garbage. If you opt for the plastic liner all the waste gets thrown into the liner which in turn can be emptied when full. This liner can then be cleaned and replaced back into the waste receptacle for future use. You can also use a trash bag inside the liner preventing the liner from even getting dirty at all.
-
One last thing to consider is this. You may be thinking that since they are so heavy shipping is just going to kill your wallet. That doesn't have to be the case. Freight can be very reasonable as long as you don't get fooled by some who use the weight of the cans as a way to inflate the shipping costs. So now that you know the basics you can feel positive in the fact that concrete trash cans are a great way to dispose of public refuse while still maintaining visual appeal of the surrounding area. Visit TrashcansRedacted.com for all the options in one place!

Similarities and Differences with the Pebbles Box
-
Nearly all of the tracks in the Pebbles Box are included on the corresponding disc in the Trash Box, with the bonus selections at the end of each disc. However, there are a few exceptions. On Disc Two, the second recording by the Inmates is "Fakirs and Thieves" rather than "I Can Make it without You"; both songs are not otherwise available on Pebbles albums. The recordings by GONN and the Dearly Beloved are in reverse order on Disc Three in the Trash Box, as is also true of the songs by the Bethlehem Exit and Edgin Inds on Disc Four. Finally, the song on Disc Five of the Trash Box by the Bitter End is "Find Someone to Love" instead of "If You Want Somebody".
-
The Trash Box is a 5-CD box set of mid-1960s garage rock and psychedelic rock recordings, primarily by American bands. This box set is similar to the earlier Pebbles Box (a 5-LP box set) and includes almost all of the same recordings in that box set (and in the same order), along with numerous bonus tracks at the end of each disc. Supposedly, the Trash Box collects the first five volumes of the CDs in the Pebbles series (i.e., those released by AIP Records, not to be confused with the 4 earlier CDs that were issued by ESD Records). However, as is generally true of the CD reissues of these five volumes (though not nearly to the same extent), the tracks differ significantly on all five discs as compared to both the original Pebbles LPs and the later Pebbles CDs in the corresponding volumes; and the surf rock rarities on Pebbles, Volume 4 have been eschewed entirely. Overall, there are 109 tracks in the box set (excluding the introduction and ending cuts) as compared to 101 songs on the individual CDs and 72 tracks in the Pebbles Box. Although most of the recordings on the Trash Box were released at some point on one of the individual Pebbles albums, several of the songs have not appeared elsewhere in the Pebbles series. Inexplicably, one of these songs is the well-known hit "I Fought the Law (but the Law Won)" by the Bobby Fuller Four (on Disc Four) – which is also included in the Pebbles Box – in place of the much rarer "Wine Wine Wine" by Bobby Fuller that appears on Pebbles, Volume 2.

Hi everyone. I used to be AdamM but I hadn't been on here in a few years. When I tried to come back, I had long since forgotten my password and, for whatever reason, couldn't retrieve it. So I am born again as Ad. Please don't mind me while I burn through some posts.

Saw Scharpling & Wurster at Lincoln Hall in Chicago last week. My old pal (from way, way back), Stubing, came in for it. Great to catch up with him and even better to have witnessed the S&W live. Such a good time.

Important news!
I received a message from the US Postal Service--my box set is finally on its way!
-
"30 Days in the Hole" by Humble Pie is one of my favorite songs, but "Song of a Baker" by Small Faces is even better.
-
"30 Days in the Hole" by Humble Pie is one of my favorite songs, but "Song of a Baker" by Small Faces is even better.
With you on that opinion.
-
When it comes to Devo, I think Duty Now For the Future is better than Freedom of Choice.
-
And when it comes to Public Enemy, It Take a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back is way better than Fear of a Black Planet.

Today I was browsing the front page of Reddit, and found a comment thread in a fitness post where meatheads were complaining about Planet Fitness (a chain gym). They were going off about how awful Planet Fitness policies are. It turns out, if you grunt, drop your weights on the ground, or judge someone they will sound off a siren called the "lunk alarm".
-
They're practically admitting to feeling humiliated by setting the alarm off.

The answer is that the calls made by S&W are always entertaining and hilarious. I laugh out loud at a simple response by Jon saying "yeah." Every time.

I've been watching a lot of old SNL episodes for a few months now. Did people really like Dennis Miller back then? The guy not only fumbles his delivery and has bad timing, but his jokes STINK! And he was on for six years??
-
Otherwise I really like this cast. Nora Dunn (Ben there...), Phil Hartman, Jan Hooks, Kevin Nealon. Good, funny people.
-
Dana Carvey and Jon Lovitz, I'm kind of ambivalent about but they have their positives. I'm not as tired of Victoria Jackson as I was expecting to be by this point but even then, echh..
-
Can't stop thinking about Wurster yelling "YER GONNA DO IT" towards the end of that "Sucks" bit. Oh my lord.
-
In just over a year I'm already towards the end of 2003 in my chronological listen of The Best Show. I really think I'm going to get through even more episodes this year. I'm very much looking forward to the evolution of it.
-
Like it's already noticeably different from how it was just two years ago even though some of the same elements are there.
-
And it's considerably different from how it is now/how it was in it's last year on WFMU.
-
The show these days could use some weirdos, but it could especially use some smart ass high school kids calling in. (Not being too critical here, I'm just saying this is one of the highlights of the early days)
-
Is it just that the audience grew with the show?
-
Back to my SNL watching, the 80s are OVER.
-
Heading on to 1990 now, just over a year before I was born (wow!).

Buying those Volcano Suns re-issues from Merge was one of the best decisions I ever made.

Hope I can find Bumper Crop or something else this year.

I'm listening to a show where Tom's saying he didn't like School of Rock or Kill Bill

I get there.

The ramblings of a crazy person.

This is what happens when you are bored at work.
-
And listening to RTJ2.
-
I should post some funny pictures but
-
I'm too bored to find any.
-
I got the box set and will listen to some of it today at work
-
since I don't have much else to do but keep posting here.
-
I'll come back later.
-
I don't wanna burn out too quickly.
-

I have things to do.

Do I really?
-
Yeah.
-
I do.
-
I'll hit you up again later.
-
Bye.
-
For now.
-
Back from lunch.
-
And thought that I should knock these next couple out...
-
And get to 50 posts.

So I can see what that gets me.

So..

-
Marbles: Fire and Smoke/Red Lights

-
That put a dent in it...

-
Each film deals with a different then-Soviet minority: Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is about the Hutzul Ukrainians living in the Carpathian Mountains sometime in the 19th century; The Color of Pomegranates is Armenian and built around the life of Sayat-Nova, a famous folksinger of the 18th century; The Legend of the Suram Fortress is based on a 19th century Georgian novella by Daniel Chonkadze and set in the medieval period; Ashik Kerib is based on a Mikhail Lermontov story written in the 1830s but set in Azerbaijani folklore. He made ten films before 1964, but he disowned them all because they were made in the socialist realist style. Parajanov only made four films after 1965 because of political pressure, time in a gulag camp in the 1970s, and a ban from film-making until the 1980s.

HISTORY teaches us clearly that the battle against colonialism does not run straight away along the lines of nationalism. For a very long time the native devotes his energies to ending certain definite abuses: forced labour, corporal punishment, inequality of salaries, limitation of political rights, etc. This fight for democracy against the oppression of mankind will slowly leave the confusion of neo-liberal universalism to emerge, sometimes laboriously, as a claim to nationhood. It so happens that the unpreparedness of the educated classes, the lack of practical links between them and the mass of the people, their laziness, and, let it be said, their cowardice at the decisive moment of the struggle will give rise to tragic mishaps.
-
National consciousness, instead of being the all-embracing crystallization of the innermost hopes of the whole people, instead of being the immediate and most obvious result of the mobilization of the people, will be in any case only an empty shell, a crude and fragile travesty of what it might have been. The faults that we find in it are quite sufficient explanation of the facility with which, when dealing with young and independent nations, the nation is passed over for the race, and the tribe is preferred to the state. These are the cracks in the edifice which show the process of retrogression that is so harmful and prejudicial to national effort and national unity. We shall see that such retrograde steps with all the weaknesses and serious dangers that they entail are the historical result of the incapacity of the national middle class to rationalize popular action, that is to say their incapacity to see into the reasons for that action.
-
This traditional weakness, which is almost congenital to the national consciousness of under-developed countries, is not solely the result of the mutilation of the colonized people by the colonial regime. It is also the result of the intellectual laziness of the national middle class, of its spiritual penury, and of the profoundly cosmopolitan mould that its mind is set in.
-
The national middle class which takes over power at the end of the colonial regime is an under-developed middle class. It has practically no economic power, and in any case it is in no way commensurate with the bourgeoisie of the mother country which it hopes to replace. In its wilful narcissism, the national middle class is easily convinced that it can advantageously replace the middle class of the mother country. But that same independence which literally drives it into a comer will give rise within its ranks to catastrophic reactions, and will oblige it to send out frenzied appeals for help to the former mother country. The university and merchant classes which make up the most enlightened section of the new state are in fact characterized by the smallness of their number and their being concentrated in the capital, and the type of activities in which they are engaged: business, agriculture and the liberal professions. Neither financiers nor industrial magnates are to be found within this national middle class. The national bourgeoisie of under-developed countries is not engaged in production, nor in invention, nor building, nor labour; it is completely canalized into activities of the intermediary type. Its innermost vocation seems to be to keep in the running and to be part of the racket. The psychology of the national bourgeoisie is that of the businessman, not that of a captain of industry; and it is only too true that the greed of the settlers and the system of embargoes set up by colonialism has hardly left them any other choice.
-
Under the colonial system, a middle class which accumulates capital is an impossible phenomenon. Now, precisely, it would seem that the historical vocation of an authentic national middle class in an under-developed country is to repudiate its own nature in so far as it is bourgeois, that is to say in so far as it is the tool of capitalism, and to make itself the willing slave of that revolutionary capital which is the people.
-
In an under-developed country an authentic national middle class ought to consider as its bounden duty to betray the calling fate has marked out for it, and to put itself to school with the people: in other words to put at the people’s disposal the intellectual and technical capital that it has snatched when going through the colonial universities. But unhappily we shall see that very often the national middle class does not follow this heroic, positive, fruitful and just path; rather, it disappears with its soul set at peace into the shocking ways — shocking because anti-national — of a traditional bourgeoisie, of a bourgeoisie which is stupidly, contemptibly, cynically bourgeois.
-
The objective of nationalist parties as from a certain given period is, we have seen, strictly national. They mobilize the people with slogans of independence, and for the rest leave it to future events. When such parties are questioned on the economic programme of the state that they are clamouring for, or on the nature of the regime which they propose to install, they are incapable of replying, because, precisely, they are completely ignorant of the economy of their own country.
-
This economy has always developed outside the limits of their knowledge. They have nothing more than an approximate, bookish acquaintance with the actual and potential resources of their country’s soil and mineral deposits; and therefore they can only speak of these resources on a general and abstract plane. After independence this under-developed middle class, reduced in numbers and without capital, which refuses to follow the path of revolution, will fall into deplorable stagnation. It is unable to give free rein to its genius, which formerly it was wont to lament, though rather too glibly, was held in check by colonial domination. The precariousness of its resources and the paucity of its managerial class forces it back for years into an artisan economy. From its point of view, which is inevitably a very limited one, a national economy is an economy based on what may be called local products. Long speeches will be made about the artisan class. Since the middle classes find it impossible to set up factories that would be more profit-earning both for themselves and for the country as a whole, they will surround the artisan class with a chauvinistic tenderness in keeping with the new awareness of national dignity, and which moreover will bring them in quite a lot of money. This cult of local products and this incapability to seek out new systems of management will be equally manifested by the bogging down of the national middle class in the methods of agricultural production which were characteristic of the colonial period.
-
The national economy of the period of independence is not set on a new footing. It is still concerned with the ground-nut harvest, with the cocoa crop and the olive yield. In the same way there is no change in the marketing of basic products, and not a single industry is set up in the country. We go on sending out raw materials; we go on being Europe’s small farmers who specialize in unfinished products.
-
Yet the national middle class constantly demands the nationalization of the economy and of the trading sectors. This is because, from their point of view, nationalization does not mean placing the whole economy at the service of the nation and deciding to satisfy the needs of the nation. For them, nationalization does not mean governing the state with regard to the new social relations whose growth it has been decided to encourage. To them, nationalization quite simply means the transfer into native hands of those unfair advantages which are a legacy of the colonial period.
-
Since the middle class has neither sufficient material nor intellectual resources (by intellectual resources we mean engineers and technicians) it limits its claims to the taking over of business offices and commercial houses formerly occupied by the settlers. The national bourgeoisie steps into the shoes of the former European settlement: doctors, barristers, traders, commercial travellers, general agents and transport agents. It considers that the dignity of the country and its own welfare require that it should occupy all these posts. From now on it will insist that all the big foreign companies should pass through its hands, whether these companies wish to keep on their connexions with the country, or to open it up. The national middle class discovers its historic mission: that of intermediary.
-
Seen through its eyes, its mission has nothing to do with transforming the nation; it consists, prosaically, of being the transmission line between the nation and a capitalism, rampant though camouflaged, which today puts on the masque of neocolonialism. The national bourgeoisie will be quite content with the role of the Western bourgeoisie’s business agent, and it will play its part without any complexes in a most dignified manner. But this same lucrative role, this cheap-jack’s function, this meanness of outlook and this absence of all ambition symbolize the incapability of the national middle class to fulfil its historic role of bourgeoisie. Here, the dynamic, pioneer aspect, the characteristics of the inventor and of the discoverer of new worlds which are found in all national bourgeoisies are lamentably absent. In the colonial countries, the spirit of indulgence is dominant at the core of the bourgeoisie; and this is because the national bourgeoisie identifies itself with the Western bourgeoisie, from whom it has learnt its lessons. It follows the West-em bourgeoisie along its path of negation and decadence without ever having emulated it in its first stages of exploration and invention, stages which are an acquisition of that Western bourgeoisie whatever the circumstances. In its beginnings, the national bourgeoisie of the colonial countries identifies itself with the decadence of the bourgeoisie of the West. We need not think that it is jumping ahead; it is in fact beginning at the end. It is already senile before it has come to know the petulance, the fearlessness or the will to succeed of youth.
-
The national bourgeoisie will be greatly helped on its way towards decadence by the Western bourgeoisies, who come to it as tourists avid for the exotic, for big-game hunting and for casinos. The national bourgeoisie organizes centres of rest and relaxation and pleasure resorts to meet the wishes of the Western bourgeoisie. Such activity is given the name of tourism, and for the occasion will be built up as a national industry. If proof is needed of the eventual transformation of certain elements of the ex-native bourgeoisie into the organizers of parties for their Western opposite numbers, it is worth while having a look at what has happened in Latin America. The casinos of Havana and of Mexico, the beaches of Rio, the little Brazilian and Mexican girls, the half-breed thirteen-year-olds, the ports of Acapulco and Copacabana — all these are the stigma of this depravation of the national middle class. Because it is bereft of ideas, because it lives to itself and cuts itself off from the people, undermined by its hereditary incapacity to think in terms of all the problems of the nation as seen from the point of view of the whole of that nation, the national middle class will have nothing better to do than to take on the role of manager for Western enterprise, and it will in practice set up its country as the brothel of Europe.
-
Once again we must keep before us the unfortunate example of certain Latin American republics. The banking magnates, the technocrats and the big businessmen of the United States have only to step on to a plane and they are wafted into sub-tropical climes, there for a space of a week or ten days to luxuriate in the delicious depravities which their ‘reserves’ hold for them.
-
The behaviour of the national landed proprietors is practically identical with that of the middle classes of the towns. The big farmers have, as soon as independence was proclaimed, demanded the nationalization of agricultural production. Through manifold scheming practices they manage to make a clean sweep of the farms formerly owned by settlers, thus rein-forcing their hold on the district. But they do not try to introduce new agricultural methods, nor to farm more intensively, nor to integrate their farming systems into a genuinely national economy.
-
In fact, the landed proprietors will insist that the state should give them a hundred times more facilities and privileges than were enjoyed by the foreign settlers in former times. The exploitation of agricultural workers will be intensified and made legitimate. Using two or three slogans, these new colonists will demand an enormous amount of work from the agricultural labourers, in the name of the national effort of course. There will be no modernization of agriculture, no planning for development, and no initiative; for initiative throws these people into a panic since it implies a minimum of risk, and completely upsets the hesitant, prudent, landed bourgeoisie, which gradually slips more and more into the lines laid down by colonialism. In. the districts where this is the case, the only efforts made to better things are due to the government; it orders them, encourages them and finances them. The landed bourgeoisie refuses to take the slightest risk, and remains opposed to any venture and to any hazard. It has no intention of building upon sand; it demands solid investments and quick returns. The enormous profits which it pockets, enormous if we take into account the national revenue, are never reinvested. The money-in-the-stocking mentality is dominant in the psychology of these landed proprietors. Sometimes, especially in the years immediately following independence, the bourgeoisie does not hesitate to invest in foreign banks the profits that it makes out of its native soil.
-
On the other hand large sums are spent on display: on cars, country houses, and on all those things which have been justly described by economists as characterizing an under-developed bourgeoisie.
-
We have said that the native bourgeoisie which comes to power uses its class aggressiveness to corner the positions formerly kept for foreigners. On the morrow of independence, in fact, it violently attacks colonial personalities: barristers, traders, landed proprietors, doctors and higher civil servants. It will fight to the bitter end against these people ‘who insult our dignity as a nation’. It waves aloft the notion of the nationalization and Aricanization of the ruling classes. The fact is that such action will become more and more tinged by racism, until the bourgeoisie bluntly puts the problem to the government by saying ‘We must have these posts’. They will not stop their snarling until they have taken over every one.
-
The working class of the towns, the masses of unemployed, the small artisans and craftsmen for their part line up behind this nationalist attitude; but in all justice let it be said, they only follow in the steps of their bourgeoisie. If the national bourgeoisie goes into competition with the Europeans, the artisans and craftsmen start a fight against non-national Africans. In the Ivory Coast, the anti-Dahoman and anti-Voltaic troubles are in fact racial riots. The Dahoman and Voltaic peoples, who control the greater part of the petty trade, are, once independence is declared, the object of hostile manifestations on the part of the people of the Ivory Coast. From nationalism we have passed to ultra-nationalism, to chauvinism, and finally to racism. These foreigners are called on to leave; their shops are burned, their street stalls are wrecked, and in fact the government of the Ivory Coast commands them to go, thus giving their nationals satisfaction. In Senegal it is the anti-Sudanese demonstrations which called forth these words from Mr Mamadou Dia:
“The truth is that the Senegalese people have only adopted the Mali mystique through attachment to its leaders. Their adhesion to the Mali has no other significance than that of a fresh act of faith in the political policy of the latter. The Senegalese territory was no less real, in fact it was all the more so in that the presence of the Sudanese in Dakar too obviously manifested for it to be forgotten. It is this fact which explains that, far from being regretted, the break-up of the Federation has been greeted with relief by the mass of the people and nowhere was a hand raised to maintain it.” (Mamadou Dia: Nations africaines et sohdarite mondial, Presses Universitaires de France, p. 140.)
-
While certain sections of the Senegalese people jump at the chance which is afforded them by their own leaders to get rid of the Sudanese, who hamper them in commercial matters or in administrative posts, the Congolese, who stood by hardly daring to believe in the mass exodus of the Belgians, decide to bring pressure to bear on the Senegalese who have settled in Leopoldville and Elizabethville and to get them to leave.
-
As we see it, the mechanism is identical in the two sets of circumstances. If the Europeans get in the way of the intellectuals and business bourgeoisie of the young nation, for the mass of the people in the towns competition is represented principally by Africans of another nation. On the Ivory Coast these competitors are the Dahomans; in Ghana they are the Nigerians; in Senegal, they are the Sudanese.
-
When the bourgeoisie’s demands for a ruling class made up exclusively of Negroes or Arabs do not spring from an authentic movement of nationalization but merely correspond to an anxiety to place in the bourgeoisie’s hands the power held hitherto by the foreigner, the masses on their level present the same demands, confining, however, the notion of Negro or Arab within certain territorial limits. Between resounding assertions of the unity of the continent and this behaviour of the masses which has its inspiration in their leaders, many different attitudes may be traced. We observe a permanent see-saw between African unity, which fades quicker and quicker into the mists of oblivion, and a heart-breaking return to chauvinism in its most bitter and detestable form.
“On the Senegalese side, the leaders who have been the main theoreticians of African unity, and who several times over have sacrificed their local political organizations and their personal positions to this idea, are, though in all good faith, undeniably responsible. Their mistake — our mistake — has been, under pretext of fighting ‘Balkanization’, not to have taken into consideration the pre-colonial fact of territorialism. Our mistake has been not to have paid enough attention in our analyses to this phenomenon, which is the fruit of colonialism if you like, but also a sociological fact which no theory of unity, be it ever so laudable or attractive, can abolish. We have allowed ourselves to be seduced by a mirage; that of the structure which is the most pleasing to our minds; and, mistaking our ideal for reality, we have believed it enough to condemn territorialism, and its natural sequel, micro-nationalism, for us to get the better of them, and to assure the success of our chimerical undertaking”. (Mamadou Dia, op. cit.)
-
From the chauvinism of the Senegalese to the tribalism of the Yolofs is not a big step. For, in fact, everywhere that the national bourgeoisie has failed to break through to the people as a whole, to enlighten them, and to consider all problems in the first place with regard to them — a failure due to the bourgeoisie’s attitude of mistrust and to the haziness of its political tenets — everywhere where that national bourgeoisie has shown itself incapable of extending its vision of the world sufficiently, we observe a falling back towards old tribal attitudes, and, furious and sick at heart, we perceive that race feeling in its most exacerbated form is triumphing. Since the sole motto of the bourgeoisie is ‘Replace the foreigner’, and because it hastens in every walk of life to secure justice for itself and to take over the posts that the foreigner has vacated, the ‘small people’ of the nation — taxi-drivers, cake-sellers and shoeblacks — will be equally quick to insist that the Dahomans go home to their own country, or will even go further and demand that the Foulbis and the Peuhls return to their jungle or their mountains.
-
It is from this view-point that we must interpret the fact that in young, independent countries, here and there federalism triumphs. We know that colonial domination has marked certain regions out for privilege. The colony’s economy is not integrated into that of the nation as a whole. It is still organized in order to complete the economy of the different mother countries. Colonialism hardly ever exploits the whole of a country. It contents itself with bringing to light the natural resources, which it extracts, and exports to meet the needs of the mother country’s industries, thereby allowing certain sectors of the colony to become relatively rich. But the rest of the colony follows its path of under-development and poverty, or at all events sinks into it more deeply.
-
Immediately after independence, the nationals who live in the more prosperous regions realize their good luck, and show a primary and profound reaction in refusing to feed the other nationals. The districts which are rich in ‘ground-nuts, in cocoa and in diamonds come to the forefront, and dominate the empty panorama which the rest of the nation presents. The nationals of these rich regions look upon the others with hatred, and find in them envy and covetousness, and homicidal impulses. Old rivalries which were there before colonialism, old inter-racial hatred come to the surface. The Balubas refuse to feed the Luluas; Katanga forms itself into a state, and Albert Kalondji gets himself crowned king of South Kasai.
-
African unity, that vague formula, yet one to which the men and women of Africa were passionately attached, and whose operative value served to bring immense pressure to bear on colonialism, African unity takes off the mask, and crumbles into regionalism inside the hollow shell of nationality itself. The national bourgeoisie, since it is strung up to defend its immediate interests, and sees no farther than the end of its nose, reveals itself incapable of simply bringing national unity into being, or of building up the nation on a stable and productive basis. The national front which has forced colonialism to withdraw cracks up, and wastes the victory it has gained.
-
This merciless fight engaged upon by races and tribes, and this aggressive anxiety to occupy the posts left vacant by the departure of the foreigner, will equally give rise to religious rivalries. In the country districts and the bush, minor con-fraternities, local religions and maraboutic cults will show a new vitality and will once more take up their round of excommunications. In the big towns, on the level of the administrative classes, we will observe the coming to grips of the two great revealed religions, Islam and Catholicism.
-
Colonialism, which had been shaken to its very foundations by the birth of African unity, recovers its balance and tries now to break that will to unity by using all the movement’s weaknesses. Colonialism will set the African peoples moving by revealing to them the existence of ‘spiritual’ rivalries. In Senegal, it is the newspaper New Africa which week by week distils hatred of Islam and of the Arabs. The Lebanese, in whose hands is the greater part of the small trading enterprises on the western seaboard, are marked out for national obloquy. The missionaries find it opportune to remind the masses that long before the advent of European colonialism the great African empires were disrupted by the Arab invasion. There is no hesitation in saying that it was the Arab occupation which paved the way for European colonialism; Arab imperialism is commonly spoken of, and the cultural. imperialism of Islam is condemned. Moslems are usually kept out of the more important posts. In other regions the reverse is the case, and it is the native Christians who are considered as conscious, objective enemies of national independence.

Colonialism pulls every string shamelessly, and is only too content to set at loggerheads those Africans who only yesterday were leagued against the settlers. The idea of a Saint Bartholomew takes shape in certain minds, and the advocates of colonialism laugh to themselves derisively when they hear magnificent declarations about African unity. Inside a single nation, religion splits up the people into different spiritual communities, all of them kept up and stiffened by colonialism and its instruments. Totally unexpected events break out here and there. In regions where Catholicism or Protestantism predominates, we see the Moslem minorities flinging themselves with unaccustomed ardour into their devotions. The Islamic feast days are revived, and the Moslem religion defends itself inch by inch against the violent absolutism of the Catholic faith. Ministers of state are heard to say for the benefit of certain individuals that if they are not content they have only to go to Cairo. Sometimes American Protestantism transplants its anti-Catholic prejudices into African soil, and keeps up tribal rivalries through religion.
-
Taking the continent as a whole, this religious tension may be responsible for the revival of the commonest racial feeling. Africa is divided into Black and White, and the names that are substituted — Africa south of the Sahara, Africa north of the Sahara — do not manage to hide this latent racism. Here, it is affirmed that White Africa has a thousand-year-old tradition of culture; that she is Mediterranean, that she is a Continuation of Europe and that she shares in Graeco-Latin civilization. Black Africa is looked on as a region that is inert, brutal, uncivilized — in a word, savage. There, all day long you may hear unpleasant remarks about veiled women, polygamy and the supposed disdain the Arabs have for the feminine sex. All such remarks are reminiscent in their aggressiveness of those that are so often heard coming from the settler’s lips. The national bourgeoisie of each of these two great religions, which has totally assimilated colonialist thought in its most corrupt form, takes over from the Europeans and establishes in the continent a racial philosophy which is extremely harmful for the future of Africa. By its laziness and will to imitation, it promotes the ingrafting and stiffening of racism which was characteristic of the colonial era. Thus it is by no means astonishing to hear in a country that calls itself African remarks which are neither more nor less than racist, and to observe the existence of paternalist behaviour which gives you the bitter impression that you are in Paris, Brussels or London.
-
In certain regions of Africa, drivelling paternalism with regard to the blacks and the loathsome idea derived from Western culture that the black man is impervious to logic and the sciences reign in all their nakedness. Sometimes it may be ascertained that the black minorities are hemmed in by a kind of semi-slavery which renders legitimate that species of wariness, or in other words mistrust, which the countries of Black Africa feel with regard to the countries of White Africa. It is all too common that a citizen of Black Africa hears himself called a ‘Negro’ by the children when walking in the streets of a big town in White Africa, or finds that civil servants address him in pidgin English.
-
Yes, unfortunately it is not unknown that students from Black Africa who attend secondary schools north of the Sahara hear their schoolfellows asking if in their country there are houses, if they know what electricity is, or if they practise cannibalism in their families. Yes, unfortunately it is not unknown that in certain regions north of the Sahara Africans coming from countries south of the Sahara meet nationals who implore them to take them ‘anywhere at all on condition we meet Negroes’. In parallel fashion, in certain young states of Black Africa members of parliament, or even ministers, maintain without a trace of humour that the danger is not at all of a reoccupation of their country by colonialism but of an eventual invasion by ‘those vandals of Arabs coming from the North’.
-
As we see it, the bankruptcy of the bourgeoisie is not apparent in the economic field only. They have come to power in the name of a narrow nationalism and representing a race; they will prove themselves incapable of triumphantly putting into practice a programme with even a minimum humanist content, in spite of fine-sounding declarations which are devoid of meaning since the speakers bandy about in irresponsible fashion phrases that come straight out of European treatises on morals and political philosophy. When the bourgeoisie is strong, when it can arrange everything and everybody to serve its power, it does not hesitate to affirm positively certain democratic ideas which claim to be universally applicable. There must be very exceptional circumstances if such a bourgeoisie, solidly based economically, is forced into denying its own humanist ideology. The Western bourgeoisie, though fundamentally racist, most often manages to mask this racism by a multiplicity of nuances which allow it to preserve intact its proclamation of mankind’s outstanding dignity.
-
The Western bourgeoisie has prepared enough fences and railings to have no real fear of the competition of those whom it exploits and holds in contempt. Western bourgeois racial prejudice as regards the nigger and the Arab is a racism of contempt; it is a racism which minimizes what it hates. Bourgeois ideology, however, which is the proclamation of an essential equality between men, manages to appear logical in its own eyes by inviting the sub-men to become human, and to take as their prototype Western humanity as incarnated in the Western bourgeoisie.
-
The racial prejudice of the young national bourgeoisie is a racism of defence, based on fear. Essentially it is no different from vulgar tribalism, or the rivalries between septs or confraternities. We may understand why keen-wined international observers have hardly taken seriously the great flights of oratory about African unity, for it is true that there are so many cracks in that unity visible to the naked eye that it is only reasonable to insist that all these contradictions ought to be resolved before the day of unity can come.
-
The people of Africa have only recently come to know themselves. They have decided, in the name of the whole continent, to weigh in strongly against the colonial regime. Now the nationalist bourgeoisies, who in region after region hasten to make their own fortunes and to set up a national system of exploitation, do their utmost to put obstacles in the path of this ‘Utopia’. The national bourgeoisies, who are quite clear as to what their objectives are, have decided to bar the way to that unity, to that coordinated effort on the part of two hundred and fifty million men to triumph over stupidity, hunger and inhumanity at one and the same time. This is why we must understand that African unity can only be achieved through the upward thrust of the people, and under the leadership of the people, that is to say, in defiance of the interests of the bourgeoisie.
-
As regards internal affairs and in the sphere of institutions, the national bourgeoisie will give equal proof of its incapacity. In a certain number of under-developed countries the parliamentary game is faked from the beginning. Powerless economically, unable to bring about the existence of coherent social relations, and standing on the principle of its domination as a class, the bourgeoisie chooses the solution that seems to it the easiest, that of the single party. It does not yet have the quiet conscience and the cairn that economic power and the control of the state machine alone can give. It does not create a state that reassures the ordinary citizen, but rather one that rouses his anxiety
-
The state, which by its strength and discretion ought to inspire confidence and disarm and lull everybody to sleep, on the contrary seeks to impose itself in spectacular fashion. It makes a display, it jostles people and bullies them, thus intimating to the citizen that he is in continual danger. The single party is the modem form of the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie, unmasked, unpainted, unscrupulous and cynical.
-
It is true that such a dictatorship does not go very far. It cannot halt the processes of its own contradictions. Since the bourgeoisie has not the economic means to ensure its domination and to throw a few crumbs to the rest of the country; since, moreover, it is preoccupied with filling its pockets as rapidly as possible but also as prosaically as possible, the country sinks all the more deeply into stagnation. And in order to hide this stagnation and to mask this regression, to reassure itself and to give itself something to boast about, the bourgeoisie can find nothing better to do than to erect grandiose buildings in the capital and to lay out money on what are called prestige expenses.
-
The national bourgeoisie turns its back more and more on the interior and on the real facts of its undeveloped country, and tends to look towards the former mother country and the foreign capitalists who count on its obliging compliance. As it does not share its profits with the people and in no way allows them to enjoy any of the dues that are paid to it by the big foreign companies, it will discover the need for a popular leader to whom will fall the dual role of stabilizing the regime and of perpetuating the domination of the bourgeoisie. The bourgeois dictatorship of under-developed countries draws its strength from the existence of a leader. We know that in the well-developed countries the bourgeois dictatorship is the result of the economic power of the bourgeoisie. In the under-developed countries on the contrary the leader stands for moral power, in whose shelter the thin and poverty-stricken bourgeoisie of the young nation decides to get rich.
-
The people who for years on end have seen this leader and heard him speak, who from a distance in a kind of dream have followed his contests with the colonial power, spontaneously put their trust in this patriot. Before independence, the leader generally embodies the aspirations of the people for independence, political liberty and national dignity. But as soon as independence is declared, far from embodying in concrete form the needs of the people in what touches bread, land and the restoration of the country to the sacred hands of the people, the leader will reveal his inner purpose: to become the general president of that company of profiteers impatient for their returns which constitutes the national bourgeoisie.
-
In spite of his frequently honest conduct and his sincere declarations, the leader as seen objectively is the fierce defender of these interests, today combined, of the national bourgeoisie and the ex-colonial companies. His honesty, which is his soul’s true bent, crumbles away little by little. His contact with the masses is so unreal that he comes to believe that his authority is hated and that the services that he has rendered his country are being called in question. The leader judges the ingratitude of the masses harshly, and every day that passes ranges himself a little more resolutely on the side of the exploiters. He therefore knowingly becomes the aider and abettor of the young bourgeoisie which is plunging into the mire of corruption and pleasure.
-
The economic channels of the young state sink back inevitably into neo-colonialist lines. The national economy, formerly protected, is today literally controlled. The budget is balanced through loans and gifts, while every three or four months the chief ministers themselves or else their governmental delegations come to the erstwhile mother countries or elsewhere, fishing for capital.
-
The former colonial power increases its demands, accumulates concessions and guarantees and takes fewer and fewer pains to mask the hold it has over the national government. The people stagnate deplorably in unbearable poverty; slowly they awaken to the unutterable treason of their leaders. This awakening is all the more acute in that the bourgeoisie is incapable of learning its lesson. The distribution of wealth that it effects is not spread out between a great many sectors; it is not ranged among different levels, nor does it set up a hierarchy of half-tones. The new caste is an affront all the more disgusting in that the immense majority, nine-tenths of the population, continue to die of starvation. The scandalous enrichment, speedy and pitiless, of this caste is accompanied by a decisive awakening on the part of the people, and a growing awareness that promises stormy days to come. The bourgeois caste, that section of the nation which annexes for its own profit all the wealth of the country, by a kind of unexpected logic will pass disparaging judgements upon the other Negroes and the other Arabs that more often than not are reminiscent of the racist doctrines of the former representatives of the colonial power. At one and the same time the poverty of the people, the immoderate money-making of the bourgeois caste, and its widespread scorn for the rest of the nation will harden thought and action.
-
But such threats will lead to the re-affirmation of authority and the appearance of dictatorship. The leader, who has behind him a lifetime of political action and devoted patriotism, constitutes a screen between the people and the rapacious bourgeoisie since he stands surety for the ventures of that caste and closes his eyes to their insolence, their mediocrity and their fundamental immorality. He acts as a braking-power on the awakening consciousness of the people. He comes to the aid of the bourgeois caste and hides his manoeuvres from the people, thus becoming the most eager worker in the task of mystifing and bewildering the masses. Every time he speaks to the people he calls to mind his often heroic life, the struggles he has led in the name of the people and the victories in their name he has achieved, thereby intimating clearly to the masses that they ought to go on putting their confidence in him. There are plenty of examples of African patriots who have introduced into the cautious political advance of their elders a decisive style characterized by its nationalist outlook. These men came from the backwoods, and they proclaimed, to the scandal of the dominating power and the shame of the nationals of the capital, that they came from the backwoods and that they spoke in the name of the Negroes. These men, who have sung the praises of their race, who have taken upon themselves the whole burden of the past, complete with cannibalism and degeneracy, find themselves today, alas, at the head of a team of administrators who turn their back on the jungle and who proclaim that the vocation of their people is to obey, to go on obeying and to be obedient till the end of time.

TRUMP: Islamic terrorism is eating up large portions of the Middle East. They’ve become rich. I’m in competition with them.
They just built a hotel in Syria. Can you believe this? They built a hotel. When I have to build a hotel, I pay interest. They don’t have to pay interest, because they took the oil that, when we left Iraq, I said we should’ve taken.
So now ISIS has the oil, and what they don’t have, Iran has. And in 19 — and I will tell you this, and I said it very strongly, years ago, I said — and I love the military, and I want to have the strongest military that we’ve ever had, and we need it more now than ever. But I said, “Don’t hit Iraq,” because you’re going to totally destabilize the Middle East. Iran is going to take over the Middle East, Iran and somebody else will get the oil, and it turned out that Iran is now taking over Iraq. Think of it. Iran is taking over Iraq, and they’re taking it over big league.
We spent $2 trillion in Iraq, $2 trillion. We lost thousands of lives, thousands in Iraq. We have wounded soldiers, who I love, I love — they’re great — all over the place, thousands and thousands of wounded soldiers.
And we have nothing. We can’t even go there. We have nothing. And every time we give Iraq equipment, the first time a bullet goes off in the air, they leave it.
Last week, I read 2,300 Humvees — these are big vehicles — were left behind for the enemy. 2,000? You would say maybe two, maybe four? 2,300 sophisticated vehicles, they ran, and the enemy took them.
AUDIENCE MEMBER: We need Trump now.
TRUMP: You’re right. [That's true.]

The theremin was originally the product of Soviet government-sponsored research into proximity sensors. The instrument was invented by a young Russian physicist named Lev Sergeevich Termen (known in the West as Léon Theremin) in October 1920[3][4] after the outbreak of the Russian Civil War.
-
After a lengthy tour of Europe, during which time he demonstrated his invention to packed houses, Theremin found his way to the United States, where he patented his invention in 1928.[5]
-
Subsequently, Theremin granted commercial production rights to RCA.
-
Although the RCA Thereminvox (released immediately following the Stock Market Crash of 1929), was not a commercial success, it fascinated audiences in America and abroad
-
Clara Rockmore, a well-known thereminist, toured to wide acclaim, performing a classical repertoire in concert halls around the United States, often sharing the bill with Paul Robeson.
-
During the 1930s Lucie Bigelow Rosen was also taken with the theremin and together with her husband Walter Bigelow Rosen provided both financial and artistic support to the development and popularisation of the instrument.
-
In 1938, Theremin left the United States, though the circumstances related to his departure are in dispute. Many accounts claim he was taken from his New York City apartment by KGB agents,[8] taken back to the Soviet Union and made to work in a sharashka laboratory prison camp at Magadan, Siberia. He reappeared 30 years later.
-
In his 2000 biography of the inventor, Theremin: Ether Music and Espionage, Albert Glinsky suggested the Russian had fled to escape crushing personal debts, and was then caught up in Stalin's political purges.
-
In any case, Theremin did not return to the United States until 1991.[9]
-
After a flurry of interest in America following the end of the Second World War, the theremin soon fell into disuse with serious musicians, mainly because newer electronic instruments were introduced that were easier to play.
-
However, a niche interest in the theremin persisted, mostly among electronics enthusiasts and kit-building hobbyists. One of these electronics enthusiasts, Robert Moog, began building theremins in the 1950s, while he was a high-school student.
-
Moog subsequently published a number of articles about building theremins, and sold theremin kits that were intended to be assembled by the customer. Moog credited what he learned from the experience as leading directly to his groundbreaking synthesizer, the Moog.
-
Since the release of the film Theremin: An Electronic Odyssey in 1994, the instrument has enjoyed a resurgence in interest and has become more widely used by contemporary musicians.
-
Even though many theremin sounds can be approximated on many modern synthesizers, some musicians continue to appreciate the expressiveness, novelty and uniqueness of using an actual theremin.
-
The film itself has garnered excellent reviews.[10]
-
Theremin kit building remains popular with electronics buffs; kits are available from Moog Music, Theremaniacs, Harrison Instruments,[11] PAiA Electronics, and Jaycar.
-
On the other end of the scale, many low-end Theremins, some of which have only pitch control, are offered online and offline, sometimes advertised as toys.
-
The theremin is distinguished among musical instruments in that it is played without physical contact. The thereminist stands in front of the instrument and moves his or her hands in the proximity of two metal antennas.
-
The distance from one antenna determines frequency (pitch), and the distance from the other controls amplitude (volume).
-
Higher notes are played by moving the hand closer to the pitch antenna. Louder notes are played by moving the hand away from the volume antenna. Most frequently, the right hand controls the pitch and the left controls the volume, although some performers reverse this arrangement.
-
Some low-cost theremins use a conventional, knob operated volume control and have only the pitch antenna.
-
While commonly called antennas, they are not used for receiving or broadcasting radio waves, but act as plates of a capacitor.
-
The theremin uses the heterodyne principle to generate an audio signal. The instrument's pitch circuitry includes two radio frequency oscillators set below 500kc to minimize radio interference. One oscillator operates at a fixed frequency.
-
The frequency of the other oscillator is controlled by the performer's distance from the pitch control antenna.
-
The performer's hand acts as the grounded plate (the performer's body being the connection to ground) of a variable capacitor in an L-C (inductance-capacitance) circuit, which is part of the oscillator and determines its frequency.
-
Some versions functioned with a change in capacitance between the performer and the instrument in the order of 0.01 picofarads to produce the full span of frequency shift.
-
The difference between the frequencies of the two oscillators at each moment allows the creation of a difference tone in the audio frequency range, resulting in audio signals that are amplified and sent to a loudspeaker.
-
To control volume, the performer's other hand acts as the grounded plate of another variable capacitor.
-
As in the tone circuit, the distance between the performer's hand and the volume control antenna determines the capacitance and hence natural resonant frequency of an LC circuit inductively coupled to another fixed LC oscillator circuit operating at a slightly higher resonant frequency.
-
When a hand approaches the antenna, the natural frequency of that circuit is further lowered, which further detunes the connected oscillator and lowers its resonant plate current.
-
The RF plate current of the oscillator is picked up by another winding and used to power the filament of another diode-connected triode, which thus acts as a variable conductance element changing the output amplitude.
-
The harmonic timbre of the output, not being a pure tone, was an important feature of the theremin.[13] Theremin's original design included audio frequency series/parallel LC equalization elements as well as a 3-winding variable-saturation transformer to control or induce harmonics in the audio output.[5]
-
Modern circuit designs often simplify this circuit and avoid the complexity of two heterodyne oscillators by having a single pitch oscillator, akin to the original theremin's volume circuit
-
This approach is usually less stable and cannot generate the low frequencies that a heterodyne oscillator can. Better designs (e.g. Moog, Theremax) may use two pairs of heterodyne oscillators, for both pitch and volume.[14]
-
Important in theremin articulation is the use of the volume control antenna.
-
Unlike touched instruments, where simply halting play or damping a resonator silences the instrument, the thereminist must "play the rests, as well as the notes", as Clara Rockmore observed.
-
Although volume technique is less developed than pitch technique, some thereminists have worked to extend it, especially Pamelia Kurstin with her "walking bass" technique[16] and Rupert Chappelle.
-
Recent versions of the theremin have been functionally updated: the Moog Ethervox, while functionally still a theremin, can also be used as a MIDI controller, and as such allows the artist to control any MIDI-compatible synthesizer with it, using the theremin's continuous pitch to drive modern synths.
-
The Harrison Instruments Model 302[18] Theremin uses symmetrical horizontal plates instead of a vertical rod and horizontal loop to control pitch and volume, with the volume increasing as the hand approaches the plate.
-
Harold C. Schonberg described the sound of the theremin has been described as "(a) cello lost in a dense fog, crying because it does not know how to get home."[19]
-
Concert composers who have written for theremin include Bohuslav Martinů,[20] Percy Grainger,[20] Christian Wolff,[20] Joseph Schillinger,[20] Moritz Eggert,[21] Iraida Yusupova,[21] Jorge Antunes,[20] Vladimir Komarov,[20] Anis Fuleihan,[22][23] and Fazıl Say.[24] Another large-scale theremin concerto is Kalevi Aho's Concerto for Theremin and Chamber Orchestra "Eight Seasons" (2011), written for Carolina Eyck.
-
Maverick composer Percy Grainger chose to use ensembles of four or six theremins (in preference to a string quartet) for his two earliest experimental Free Music compositions (1935–37) because of the instrument's complete 'gliding' freedom of pitch.[25][26]
-
Musician Jean Michel Jarre used the instrument in his concerts Oxygen In Moscow and Space of Freedom[27] in Gdańsk, providing also a short history of Léon Theremin's life.
-
The five-piece Spaghetti Western Orchestra use a Theremin as a replacement for Edda Dell'Orso's vocals in their interpretation of Ennio Morricone's "Once Upon a Time in the West".[28]
-
Other notable contemporary Theremin players include Lydia Kavina, Pamelia Kurstin, and Barbara Buchholz.[citation needed] Dutch classical musician Thorwald Jørgensen has been described as "one of the most important exponents of classical music on the theremin".[29]
-
Theremins and theremin-like sounds started to be incorporated into popular music from the end of the 1940s (with a series of Samuel Hoffman/Harry Revel collaborations)[30] and this continued, with varying popularity, to the present.[31]
-
While The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations" features an instrument that sounds much like a theremin, in fact the sound is made by a unique instrument called the electro-theremin. It was re-created in 1999 and renamed the "Tannerin" in honor of the original creator and performer.[32]
-
Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin used a variation of the theremin (minus the loop) during performances of "Whole Lotta Love" and "No Quarter" throughout the performance history of Led Zeppelin, an extended multi-instrumental solo featuring theremin and bowed guitar in 1977, as well as the soundtrack for Death Wish II released in 1982. Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones also used the instrument on the group's 1967 albums Between the Buttons and Their Satanic Majesties Request.[33]
-
The Lothars are a Boston-area band formed in early 1997 whose CDs have featured as many as four theremins played at once – a first for pop music.[34][35]
-
Although credited with a "Thereman" [sic] on the "Mysterons" track from the album Dummy, Portishead actually used a monophonic synthesizer to achieve theremin-like effects, as confirmed by Adrian Utley, who is credited as playing the instrument; he has also created similar sounds on the songs "Half Day Closing", "Humming", "The Rip" and "Machine Gun".
-
Under the colonial system, a middle class which accumulates capital is an impossible phenomenon. Now, precisely, it would seem that the historical vocation of an authentic national middle class in an under-developed country is to repudiate its own nature in so far as it is bourgeois, that is to say in so far as it is the tool of capitalism, and to make itself the willing slave of that revolutionary capital which is the people.
Classy burning going on here!

Modern circuit designs often simplify this circuit and avoid the complexity of two heterodyne oscillators by having a single pitch oscillator, akin to the original theremin's volume circuit
Wimp move. True thereminists appreciate the challenge of working the heterodynes.

Alright, going forward, I'm going to post quotes from either Confucius or Oprah. I'll let future posters guess who said what.
"We should feel sorrow, but not sink under it's oppression."
-
"Surround yourself with only people who are going to lift you higher."
-
"Challenges are gifts that force us to search for a new center of gravity."
-
"Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it."
-
"Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody is going to know whether you did it or not."
-
"Learning without thought is labor lost."
-
"Turn your wounds into wisdom."
-
"Where there is no struggle, there is no strength."
-
""I believe that every single event in life happens in an opportunity to choose love over fear."
-
"The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams."
(Halfway to 50!)
-
"Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire."
-
"Forget injuries, but never forget kindness."
-
"Difficulties come when you don't pay attention to life's whisper."
-
"Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated."
-
"Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life."
-
"It is not failure if you enjoyed the process."
-
"Heaven means to be one with God."
-
"It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop."
-
"Wherever you go, go with all your heart."
-
"I know for sure that what we dwell on is who we become."
-
"Respect yourself and others will respect you."
-
"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."
-
"You are built not to shrink down to less but to blossom into more."
-
"Study the past if you would like to define the future."
-
"Use what you have to run towards your best."
-
Those are all the quotes I have. Oprah or Confucius was a thing I came up with in high school, and I still think it's pretty fun to play with people.
In case anyone's trying to guess, out of all of those quotes, 11 of them are attributed to Confucius, and 12 are attributed to Oprah. It's pretty hard to tell who said what.

I feel bad going back to numbers. I really do.

"As a subject for the remarks of the evening, the perpetuation of our political institutions, is selected."
2
-
"In the great journal of things happening under the sun, we, the American People, find our account running, under date of the nineteenth century of the Christian era."
3
-
"We find ourselves in the peaceful possession, of the fairest portion of the earth, as regards extent of territory, fertility of soil, and salubrity of climate."
4
-
"We find ourselves under the government of a system of political institutions, conducing more essentially to the ends of civil and religious liberty, than any of which the history of former times tells us."
5
-
"We, when mounting the stage of existence, found ourselves the legal inheritors of these fundamental blessings."
6
-
"We toiled not in the acquirement or establishment of them--they are a legacy bequeathed us, by a once hardy, brave, and patriotic, but now lamented and departed race of ancestors."
7
-
"Their's was the task (and nobly they performed it) to possess themselves, and through themselves, us, of this goodly land; and to uprear upon its hills and its valleys, a political edifice of liberty and equal rights; 'tis ours only, to transmit these, the former, unprofaned by the foot of an invader; the latter, undecayed by the lapse of time and untorn by usurpation, to the latest generation that fate shall permit the world to know."
8
-
"This task of gratitude to our fathers, justice to ourselves, duty to posterity, and love for our species in general, all imperatively require us faithfully to perform."
9
-
"How then shall we perform it?"
10
-
"At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it?"
11
-
"Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never!--All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years."
12
-
"At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide."
13
-
"I hope I am over wary; but if I am not, there is, even now, something of ill-omen, amongst us. I mean the increasing disregard for law which pervades the country; the growing disposition to substitute the wild and furious passions, in lieu of the sober judgment of Courts; and the worse than savage mobs, for the executive ministers of justice."
14
-
"This disposition is awfully fearful in any community; and that it now exists in ours, though grating to our feelings to admit, it would be a violation of truth, and an insult to our intelligence, to deny. Accounts of outrages committed by mobs, form the every-day news of the times."
15
-
"They have pervaded the country, from New England to Louisiana;--they are neither peculiar to the eternal snows of the former, nor the burning suns of the latter;--they are not the creature of climate-- neither are they confined to the slave-holding, or the non-slave- holding States. Alike, they spring up among the pleasure hunting masters of Southern slaves, and the order loving citizens of the land of steady habits.--Whatever, then, their cause may be, it is common to the whole country."

"It would be tedious, as well as useless, to recount the horrors of all of them. Those happening in the State of Mississippi, and at St. Louis, are, perhaps, the most dangerous in example and revolting to humanity."
17
-
"In the Mississippi case, they first commenced by hanging the regular gamblers; a set of men, certainly not following for a livelihood, a very useful, or very honest occupation; but one which, so far from being forbidden by the laws, was actually licensed by an act of the Legislature, passed but a single year before."
18
-
"Next, negroes, suspected of conspiring to raise an insurrection, were caught up and hanged in all parts of the State: then, white men, supposed to be leagued with the negroes; and finally, strangers, from neighboring States, going thither on business, were, in many instances subjected to the same fate. Thus went on this process of hanging, from gamblers to negroes, from negroes to white citizens, and from these to strangers; till, dead men were seen literally dangling from the boughs of trees upon every road side; and in numbers almost sufficient, to rival the native Spanish moss of the country, as a drapery of the forest."
19
-
"Turn, then, to that horror-striking scene at St. Louis. A single victim was only sacrificed there. His story is very short; and is, perhaps, the most highly tragic, if anything of its length, that has ever been witnessed in real life. A mulatto man, by the name of McIntosh, was seized in the street, dragged to the suburbs of the city, chained to a tree, and actually burned to death; and all within a single hour from the time he had been a freeman, attending to his own business, and at peace with the world."
20
-
"Such are the effects of mob law; and such as the scenes, becoming more and more frequent in this land so lately famed for love of law and order; and the stories of which, have even now grown too familiar, to attract any thing more, than an idle remark."
21
-
"But you are, perhaps, ready to ask, "What has this to do with the perpetuation of our political institutions?""
22
-
Nice work. Particularly liked this part: "... mounting the stage of existence..."
-
"I answer, it has much to do with it. Its direct consequences are, comparatively speaking, but a small evil; and much of its danger consists, in the proneness of our minds, to regard its direct, as its only consequences."
23
-
"Abstractly considered, the hanging of the gamblers at Vicksburg, was of but little consequence. They constitute a portion of population, that is worse than useless in any community; and their death, if no pernicious example be set by it, is never matter of reasonable regret with any one."
24
-
"If they were annually swept, from the stage of existence, by the plague or small pox, honest men would, perhaps, be much profited, by the operation."
25
-
"Similar too, is the correct reasoning, in regard to the burning of the negro at St. Louis. He had forfeited his life, by the perpetration of an outrageous murder, upon one of the most worthy and respectable citizens of the city; and had not he died as he did, he must have died by the sentence of the law, in a very short time afterwards."
26
-
"As to him alone, it was as well the way it was, as it could otherwise have been."
27
-
"But the example in either case, was fearful."
28
-
"When men take it in their heads to day, to hang gamblers, or burn murderers, they should recollect, that, in the confusion usually attending such transactions, they will be as likely to hang or burn some one who is neither a gambler nor a murderer as one who is; and that, acting upon the example they set, the mob of to-morrow, may, and probably will, hang or burn some of them by the very same mistake."
29
-
"And not only so; the innocent, those who have ever set their faces against violations of law in every shape, alike with the guilty, fall victims to the ravages of mob law; and thus it goes on, step by step, till all the walls erected for the defense of the persons and property of individuals, are trodden down, and disregarded. But all this even, is not the full extent of the evil."
30
-
"By such examples, by instances of the perpetrators of such acts going unpunished, the lawless in spirit, are encouraged to become lawless in practice; and having been used to no restraint, but dread of punishment, they thus become, absolutely unrestrained.--Having ever regarded Government as their deadliest bane, they make a jubilee of the suspension of its operations; and pray for nothing so much, as its total annihilation. While, on the other hand, good men, men who love tranquility, who desire to abide by the laws, and enjoy their benefits, who would gladly spill their blood in the defense of their country; seeing their property destroyed; their families insulted, and their lives endangered; their persons injured; and seeing nothing in prospect that forebodes a change for the better; become tired of, and disgusted with, a Government that offers them no protection; and are not much averse to a change in which they imagine they have nothing to lose. Thus, then, by the operation of this mobocractic spirit, which all must admit, is now abroad in the land, the strongest bulwark of any Government, and particularly of those constituted like ours, may effectually be broken down and destroyed--I mean the attachment of the People."
31
-
"Whenever this effect shall be produced among us; whenever the vicious portion of population shall be permitted to gather in bands of hundreds and thousands, and burn churches, ravage and rob provision-stores, throw printing presses into rivers, shoot editors, and hang and burn obnoxious persons at pleasure, and with impunity; depend on it, this Government cannot last. By such things, the feelings of the best citizens will become more or less alienated from it; and thus it will be left without friends, or with too few, and those few too weak, to make their friendship effectual. At such a time and under such circumstances, men of sufficient talent and ambition will not be wanting to seize the opportunity, strike the blow, and overturn that fair fabric, which for the last half century, has been the fondest hope, of the lovers of freedom, throughout the world."
32
-
"I know the American People are much attached to their Government;--I know they would suffer much for its sake;--I know they would endure evils long and patiently, before they would ever think of exchanging it for another. Yet, notwithstanding all this, if the laws be continually despised and disregarded, if their rights to be secure in their persons and property, are held by no better tenure than the caprice of a mob, the alienation of their affections from the Government is the natural consequence; and to that, sooner or later, it must come."
33
-
"Here then, is one point at which danger may be expected."
34
-
"The question recurs, "how shall we fortify against it?" The answer is simple. Let every American, every lover of liberty, every well wisher to his posterity, swear by the blood of the Revolution, never to violate in the least particular, the laws of the country; and never to tolerate their violation by others. As the patriots of seventy-six did to the support of the Declaration of Independence, so to the support of the Constitution and Laws, let every American pledge his life, his property, and his sacred honor;--let every man remember that to violate the law, is to trample on the blood of his father, and to tear the character of his own, and his children's liberty. Let reverence for the laws, be breathed by every American mother, to the lisping babe, that prattles on her lap--let it be taught in schools, in seminaries, and in colleges; let it be written in Primers, spelling books, and in Almanacs;--let it be preached from the pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls, and enforced in courts of justice. And, in short, let it become the political religion of the nation; and let the old and the young, the rich and the poor, the grave and the gay, of all sexes and tongues, and colors and conditions, sacrifice unceasingly upon its altars."
35
-
"While ever a state of feeling, such as this, shall universally, or even, very generally prevail throughout the nation, vain will be every effort, and fruitless every attempt, to subvert our national freedom."
36
-
"When I so pressingly urge a strict observance of all the laws, let me not be understood as saying there are no bad laws, nor that grievances may not arise, for the redress of which, no legal provisions have been made.--I mean to say no such thing. But I do mean to say, that, although bad laws, if they exist, should be repealed as soon as possible, still while they continue in force, for the sake of example, they should be religiously observed. So also in unprovided cases. If such arise, let proper legal provisions be made for them with the least possible delay; but, till then, let them, if not too intolerable, be borne with."
37
-
"There is no grievance that is a fit object of redress by mob law. In any case that arises, as for instance, the promulgation of abolitionism, one of two positions is necessarily true; that is, the thing is right within itself, and therefore deserves the protection of all law and all good citizens; or, it is wrong, and therefore proper to be prohibited by legal enactments; and in neither case, is the interposition of mob law, either necessary, justifiable, or excusable."
38
-
"But, it may be asked, why suppose danger to our political institutions? Have we not preserved them for more than fifty years? And why may we not for fifty times as long?"
39
-
"We hope there is no sufficient reason. We hope all dangers may be overcome; but to conclude that no danger may ever arise, would itself be extremely dangerous. There are now, and will hereafter be, many causes, dangerous in their tendency, which have not existed heretofore; and which are not too insignificant to merit attention. That our government should have been maintained in its original form from its establishment until now, is not much to be wondered at. It had many props to support it through that period, which now are decayed, and crumbled away. Through that period, it was felt by all, to be an undecided experiment; now, it is understood to be a successful one.--Then, all that sought celebrity and fame, and distinction, expected to find them in the success of that experiment. Their all was staked upon it:-- their destiny was inseparably linked with it. Their ambition aspired to display before an admiring world, a practical demonstration of the truth of a proposition, which had hitherto been considered, at best no better, than problematical; namely, the capability of a people to govern themselves. If they succeeded, they were to be immortalized; their names were to be transferred to counties and cities, and rivers and mountains; and to be revered and sung, and toasted through all time. If they failed, they were to be called knaves and fools, and fanatics for a fleeting hour; then to sink and be forgotten."
40
-
"They succeeded. The experiment is successful; and thousands have won their deathless names in making it so. But the game is caught; and I believe it is true, that with the catching, end the pleasures of the chase. This field of glory is harvested, and the crop is already appropriated. But new reapers will arise, and they, too, will seek a field. It is to deny, what the history of the world tells us is true, to suppose that men of ambition and talents will not continue to spring up amongst us. And, when they do, they will as naturally seek the gratification of their ruling passion, as others have so done before them. The question then, is, can that gratification be found in supporting and maintaining an edifice that has been erected by others? Most certainly it cannot. Many great and good men sufficiently qualified for any task they should undertake, may ever be found, whose ambition would inspire to nothing beyond a seat in Congress, a gubernatorial or a presidential chair; but such belong not to the family of the lion, or the tribe of the eagle. What! think you these places would satisfy an Alexander, a Caesar, or a Napoleon?--Never! Towering genius distains a beaten path. It seeks regions hitherto unexplored.--It sees no distinction in adding story to story, upon the monuments of fame, erected to the memory of others. It denies that it is glory enough to serve under any chief. It scorns to tread in the footsteps of any predecessor, however illustrious. It thirsts and burns for distinction; and, if possible, it will have it, whether at the expense of emancipating slaves, or enslaving freemen. Is it unreasonable then to expect, that some man possessed of the loftiest genius, coupled with ambition sufficient to push it to its utmost stretch, will at some time, spring up among us? And when such a one does, it will require the people to be united with each other, attached to the government and laws, and generally intelligent, to successfully frustrate his designs."
41
-
"Distinction will be his paramount object, and although he would as willingly, perhaps more so, acquire it by doing good as harm; yet, that opportunity being past, and nothing left to be done in the way of building up, he would set boldly to the task of pulling down."
42
-
"Here, then, is a probable case, highly dangerous, and such a one as could not have well existed heretofore."
43
-
"Another reason which once was; but which, to the same extent, is now no more, has done much in maintaining our institutions thus far. I mean the powerful influence which the interesting scenes of the revolution had upon the passions of the people as distinguished from their judgment. By this influence, the jealousy, envy, and avarice, incident to our nature, and so common to a state of peace, prosperity, and conscious strength, were, for the time, in a great measure smothered and rendered inactive; while the deep-rooted principles of hate, and the powerful motive of revenge, instead of being turned against each other, were directed exclusively against the British nation. And thus, from the force of circumstances, the basest principles of our nature, were either made to lie dormant, or to become the active agents in the advancement of the noblest cause--that of establishing and maintaining civil and religious liberty."
44
-
"But this state of feeling must fade, is fading, has faded, with the circumstances that produced it."
45
-
"I do not mean to say, that the scenes of the revolution are now or ever will be entirely forgotten; but that like every thing else, they must fade upon the memory of the world, and grow more and more dim by the lapse of time. In history, we hope, they will be read of, and recounted, so long as the bible shall be read;-- but even granting that they will, their influence cannot be what it heretofore has been. Even then, they cannot be so universally known, nor so vividly felt, as they were by the generation just gone to rest. At the close of that struggle, nearly every adult male had been a participator in some of its scenes. The consequence was, that of those scenes, in the form of a husband, a father, a son or brother, a living history was to be found in every family-- a history bearing the indubitable testimonies of its own authenticity, in the limbs mangled, in the scars of wounds received, in the midst of the very scenes related--a history, too, that could be read and understood alike by all, the wise and the ignorant, the learned and the unlearned.--But those histories are gone. They can be read no more forever. They were a fortress of strength; but, what invading foeman could never do, the silent artillery of time has done; the leveling of its walls."
46
-
"They are gone.--They were a forest of giant oaks; but the all-resistless hurricane has swept over them, and left only, here and there, a lonely trunk, despoiled of its verdure, shorn of its foliage; unshading and unshaded, to murmur in a few gentle breezes, and to combat with its mutilated limbs, a few more ruder storms, then to sink, and be no more."
47
-
"They were the pillars of the temple of liberty; and now, that they have crumbled away, that temple must fall, unless we, their descendants, supply their places with other pillars, hewn from the solid quarry of sober reason. Passion has helped us; but can do so no more. It will in future be our enemy."
48
-
"Reason, cold, calculating, unimpassioned reason, must furnish all the materials for our future support and defence.--Let those materials be moulded into general intelligence, sound morality, and in particular, a reverence for the constitution and laws: and, that we improved to the last; that we remained free to the last; that we revered his name to the last; that, during his long sleep, we permitted no hostile foot to pass over or desecrate his resting place; shall be that which to learn the last trump shall awaken our WASHINGTON."
49
-
"Upon these let the proud fabric of freedom rest, as the rock of its basis; and as truly as has been said of the only greater institution, "the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.""

I went to the scharpling and wurster show last year in portland. It was tons of fun. Tom looked at my wife twice in the eyes but not me, I don't blame him.
-
I enjoyed Wurster on Steven Universe today. He brings a great filth charm to it.

I think yellow tail is voiced by Scharpling. I'm surprised I never picked up on that before.

I'm riding on a plane, and I'm always hallucinating.

Ever? What a cruel joke.

Or one of the southern gents might play some sort of country boy.

Who knows, though. I am happy Tom is getting work.

I like Michael Kupperman's stuff.

The captcha requirement disappeared after a few posts, so I guess I'm not a robot anymore.
-
I am another Steven Universe based Best Show convert.
-
Started talking about it with my friend at work and I ended up getting really into it really quickly.
-
Listened to almost all of the Gems from the WFMU show, started listening regularly.
-
Ended up going to the toronto Scharpling & Wurster Show in Toronto.
-
Really wanted to get all of the background information for all the characters and stuff in newbridge.
-
But there was a lot I couldn't find. I kept convincing myself that it'd be a bit too much to listen to every episode ever.
-
But, I changed my mind.
-
So in my quest to start listening to every episode ever I tried to find a feed or a download so I could listen to it on my phone.
-
But I couldn't find anything except the streams on the WFMU site, which wouldn't work on my phone.
-
Then I saw someone mention that if you join the Friends of Tom Forum, and get 50 posts, you get to unlock something.
-
So I figured I'd try it and see what happens. I had meant to join anyways.
-
I am definitely a fan of the Pokemon go song that Tom made
-
When I am sleepy I start babbling incoherently, and since I've switched to stream of consciousness mode I guess I might just do that here.
-
I tried at the beginning to go through chunks of this thread to see what other people were doing, and if there were any rules for the thread
-
I didn't find much in terms of rules, I saw a lot of people being random or entertaining, or posting quotes from things.
-
And I thought: Hey, I know of things that have famous quotes!
-
And then the only thing I could think of was Star Wars
-
So I posted a bunch of star wars quotes
-
Then I thought: Is posting a bunch of star wars quotes a good choice? Should I diversify it a bit?
-
Then I said the most famous spider man quote
-
Then I spent a whole bunch of time explaining my entire thought process in posting everything I posted up until this point
-
But I still had 10 posts to go. I worry that I might be overdoing it by explaining everything.
-
It's been a while since I've been on a forum.

I'm not a new listener, but I am a new FOT member. I am desperate to get to the downloads - my commute recently changed and I have a lot of time to fill.
The most recent "lost" episode on election night was a help.

Burn out the night
I'm not the one to tell you what's wrong or what's right
I've seen suns that were freezing and lives that were through

Well I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
Burn out the day
Burn out the night

I'm living for giving the devil his due
And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Sorry, friends. I need to do this fast!

Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.
-
Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air.
-
Let no man imagine that he has no influence. Whoever he may be, and wherever he may be placed, the man who thinks becomes a light and a power.
-
To be able to fill leisure intelligently is the last product of civilization, and at present very few people have reached this level.
-
The difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is that in a democracy you vote first and take orders later; in a dictatorship you don't have to waste your time voting.
-
The good or ill of a man lies within his own will.
-
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.
-
Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.
-
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.
-
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.
-
A room without books is like a body without a soul.
-
You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.
-
You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.
-
In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.
-
Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow; Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead; Walk beside me… just be my friend
-
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
-
If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
-
A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.
-
I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.
-
Without music, life would be a mistake.
-
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
-
We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
-
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
-
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living.
-
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
-
For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.
-
It is never too late to be what you might have been.
-
I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by.
-
If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.
-
Folks are usually about as happy as they make their minds up to be.
-
Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.
-
Sorry about all that nonsense, friends!
-
Sorry about all that nonsense, friends!
Congratulations on your achievement.
-
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.
Doing a fine job, Doctor.

Fifty is as good a time as any to take stock of what you’ve done and accomplished in your life, and figure out what more you’d like to do with your time now that you’re both older and (maybe a little) wiser. Hence the bucket list, a list of things one would like to do before they die.
If you’re looking to add some items to your bucket list, you are in luck! We’ve created a list of things we think people should do at least once in their lives. How many of these have you already done? Tell us in the comments section, or add your own suggestions to the list.
1. Karaoke.
-
2. Go on a road trip with friends.
-
3. Dramatically change your hairstyle or look.
-
4. Learn a new language.
-
5. Formally learn a style of dance.
-
6. Get a tattoo.
-
7. Travel to an exotic destination.
-
8. Go skinny dipping.
-
9. Build something yourself (Ikea assembly, while impressive, doesn’t count).
-
10. Eat a snake.
-
11. Scuba dive.
-
12. Find an old school friend.
-
13. Eat a tire.
-
15. Go ziplining.
-
16. Form a cover band.
-
17. Throw away everything.
-
18.
-
19. Get a dog.

I think this is a Hubley cartoon, and a simple Google probably would tell me. But, nah.
It seems a bit subversive (https://youtu.be/y6o4AM6rpfo?t=11)at times, and "trippy."

I am Secretly an Important Man
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DXcUw9aRDo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DXcUw9aRDo)
I think his sons made the documentary. Here's Jesse playing guitar while participating (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rKI7mnKnMc) in a sleep study for some extra geets (from the description). While Jesse sounds great, he looks like he tried to bathe a colony of ferral cats with noble but foolish results.
Fun Fact: Naropa (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naropa)admitted Jesse but not Curt Cobain: https://www.naropa.edu/. (https://www.naropa.edu/.)

An amazing performance by James Brown on the TAMI Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMqM4lZGiK0 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMqM4lZGiK0).
There is a backstory to this video that I am going to get wrong. The Rolling Stones were booked on the same show, and someone thought it would be a good idea for the Stones to close the show. It was up to Mick to deliver the news to James Brown, who said, "Ok" and then delivered a performance that caused Sir Jagger to not want to leave his dressing room. "Welcome to America" is what Mr. Brown told Mr. Stones as they passed each other, one to go rest and the other to go flail.
The Stones closed the show with this awful performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQkqs1_laf4 (https://youtu.be/CQkqs1_laf4?t=491). Anyway, I am messing up a really good story that one should Google for more information about that particular evening. Credit to Joey "CoCo" Diaz for remembering this video and mentioning this article from the New Yorker on his show - mystery solved (https://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/possessed-james-brown-eighteen-minutes)!
Update: Mick shows off his Eaton Riflehood and London School of Economics education on the subject (in French and English, no less): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MlzyCzwc1s (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MlzyCzwc1s).
Bonus! Toni Basil Reflects on James Brown on the Tami Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swaQxvrLgdY (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swaQxvrLgdY) <- Such an interesting interview/person!

MEMO FROM TURNER - MICK JAGGER
Well, I'll just put this here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3qgmVb4-kU (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3qgmVb4-kU) and that there https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_(film) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_(film)).
Note: This post is probably not family-friendly for any kind of family arrangement.
Note: Ry Cooder plays slide on Memo and, sure enough, on this one, too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UOweeSdI2k. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UOweeSdI2k.)
It looks like there is a documentary about making this perform-a-rama: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fikZwrIOpyQ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fikZwrIOpyQ).

Il fantasma del palcoscenico - Trailer

Ah, torn from the pages of Famous Monsters comes the Phantom of the Paradise (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantom_of_the_Paradise). When, oh when, will Tom interview Paul Williams?
Oh man...of all the Aurora Monster models I built, somehow I missed this one: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/phantom-paradise-resin-model-kit-12746218 (https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/phantom-paradise-resin-model-kit-12746218). I guess I could buy one now and put it together, but, let's be honest, I'd just sniff the glue probably. So...no model and no glue.

RAINBOW - RUDE PROGRAMME
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgbcQIT7BMc (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgbcQIT7BMc)
Yeah...No. This is not "kid friendly" at all. Not one bit.
[From the comments] This was actually recorded as a joke by the cast and crew, who played it at their annual staff Christmas Party (usually they just did a bloopers tape, but this particular year, made something different). It was never aired on children's TV. However in 1991 it was shown on the Victor Lewis Smith - TV Offal, who mistakenly said it was a 'pilot' show. Still fookin hilarious though...

The Great American Fourth Of July and Other Disasters (1982) Jean Shepherd movie

Henry Chinaski (https://youtu.be/MTPxWkBgW6U) (Factotum (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOcMSq9msSc)) stars in this film about the Fourth of July.
I think it is far superior to the Christmas Story (blech). Maybe it aired once on PBS? Well, I don't think it could ever be shown these days.

Hawaii Five-O: Bored She Hung Herself Rare Full Episode
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0mKcIMN_bs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0mKcIMN_bs)
From TV Obscurities:
Is there a lost episode of Hawaii Five-O? Technically, no. In this week’s DVD Tuesday I mentioned that there’s an episode from the second season of Hawaii Five-O that hasn’t been seen since its original broadcast. Someone in the comments asked why the episode is missing from the DVD release.
The episode was called “Bored She Hung Herself.” It aired for reportedly the first and only time on Wednesday, January 7th, 1970 during Hawaii Five-O‘s second season.
It is worth reading the full article, me thinks/suggests: https://www.tvobscurities.com/2010/03/a-lost-episode-of-hawaii-five-o/ (https://www.tvobscurities.com/2010/03/a-lost-episode-of-hawaii-five-o/).
Also, Kam Fong (as Chin Ho) had an amazing life, so I hear. After his first wife and child were killed when a plane struck their house, he became a real police officer and asked for the most dangerous assignments. Well, this wiki-thingy doesn't do the guy justice as far as I'm concerned: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kam_Fong_Chun (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kam_Fong_Chun). Maybe Jan Wooster can start an iPetition for him like his fellow Knuk-uh-du-Nort did for Reggie Leech: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjdXz1jSm0U (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjdXz1jSm0U). I won't hold my breath. My friend of a friend in Sonic Youth said he's a cheapskate.

MY BREAKFAST WITH BLASSIE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiSMrRKMasM (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiSMrRKMasM)
I imagine that most people know of this film, but I have a theory about the origins of Tony Clifton. I watched the beginning of SNL S1 E3 from 1975 (https://www.hulu.com/watch/159645 (https://www.hulu.com/watch/159645)). Rob Reiner's opening monologue is dead-on Tony Clifton. Since Andy Kaufman (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bR-DGJ9ovaM) attended that the show, I am beginning to put the pieces together: maybe Tony Clifton is doing Andy Kaufman who was actually doing Rob Reiner. I see similarities between '75 and '77 and Andy's first TV apperance as Tony Clifton in 1977 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zpNIomYAkE). (http://Andy's first TV apperance as Tony Clifton in 1977.)
The Blassie thing is a thing, well, that is a thing entirely unto itself. It's like Zappa's toilet plunger come to life.
I love this song so, so much. Andy is not everyone's cup of tea, but this is a beautiful version of the song: https://youtu.be/bR-DGJ9ovaM?t=187 (https://youtu.be/bR-DGJ9ovaM?t=187)
And, yes, I do see this video as culturally insensitive on several levels. I am not excusing the video. Nonetheless, I love his voice in this stupid video. So...what can I do? What can any one of us like at all anymore? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTh7LUcZwec (https://youtu.be/MTh7LUcZwec?t=378)

That song has been stuck in my head for years, but, for the life of me, I cannot understand one word of it. Then I happened upon their reunion tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLgY6LM-APk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLgY6LM-APk).
Well, it looks like they're meatheads; but are they my kind of meatheads?
That...that I don't know.
True Fact: That's Bill "Butter Cheeks (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwNIi7Q6vKc)" Burr on guitar: https://youtu.be/ZLgY6LM-APk?t=35 (https://youtu.be/ZLgY6LM-APk?t=35). He's so good. Why is he still trying to play drums?

MY BEEF MAILBOX - Z
https://vimeo.com/122901932 (https://vimeo.com/122901932)
It's sad to see siblings litigants Ahmet and Dweezil fight, especially when it seemed like they were having such fun at one time: https://youtu.be/_yTZ_uEvTv0?t=5 (https://youtu.be/_yTZ_uEvTv0?t=59)9. Pardon my non sequitur but I think Dino Stamatopoulos (https://youtu.be/q2nC_fUPl-w (https://youtu.be/q2nC_fUPl-w)) did something to Max Weinsein's drums that made him flip his wig - and poor Andy Rooney...it's just so awful: https://youtu.be/q2nC_fUPl-w?t=62 (https://youtu.be/q2nC_fUPl-w?t=62) Dino describes it on one of his podcasts for those who don't yet know they care or why: http://feeds.feedburner.com/DinoAndAndysSkullJuice (http://feeds.feedburner.com/DinoAndAndysSkullJuice).
It's kind of disturbing. I see genuine fear in the old dog's face, and either Dino is a jerk or he couldn't see well out of the "view hole" or they calculated the distances wrong in rehearsal. Dino discussed it on one of his podasts, somewhere. This one isn't it, but it is indecent enough: A Hard Guy to Pin Down (https://audioboom.com/posts/6818359-hard-guy-to-pin-down). We may even learn about the emic reasons for The Fall of Feral Audio - or maybe we don't.
What do I know? Note: I am listening to the episode now (probably not when you are reading this post burn), and I must declare, proceed with caution. It is pretty rough in spots. Maybe you should avoid listening to it - you'll think Joe Rogan is Dick Cavett (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U-AH0CVhHQ&index=23&list=PLO2KPpd35JCN1uz0NqF2eRS6fRextUtZX&t=0s) afterward.

Eyes Wide Shut - Slavoj Žižek
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeZGTh_qmJc (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeZGTh_qmJc)
Yeah, I should have quit at post number 50 (woulda been better before post number 1), but I'm in now. So what the hell is Kubric's movie, Eyes Wide Shut, all about? Beats me, so let's ask others. Mr.Žižek performs an academic exegsis in his own documentary that includes the film, and we embark upon a very complicated and intricate analsyis of it. Now, let's ask Mr. Jolly, who offers us a competing, but a far more entertaining theory: maybe Stanley did not like Tom very much at all. Here's the evidence:
https://www.sbs.com.au/movies/article/2017/09/13/was-eyes-wide-shut-merely-elaborate-expensive-way-stanley-kubrick-toy-tom-cruise (https://www.sbs.com.au/movies/article/2017/09/13/was-eyes-wide-shut-merely-elaborate-expensive-way-stanley-kubrick-toy-tom-cruise).
It couldn't be that simple...could it? Probably not, but it does give the film some kind of point that I can not only understand, but also appreciate/encourage.

Isn't he most famous for his role on "Who's the Boss?"
"Mona convinces Tony to let Samantha stay out all night for a concert. Inspired, Angela makes a list of spontaneous things she wants to do. Tony encourages her, until he finds out she is dating the former high school wild man."
My parents let me watch V, The Day After, Beastmaster, Emmanuelle, all that stuff - but they drew the line at Danza.
Time for a Post Burning FUN FACT: Tony Danza's last name is Iodanza, or some such.
Yo! TonEE! YoIODANZA! YO! YO-IO! YO-YO! Haha! YO-YO DIS' GUY!
I see why he changed it when I read it like my Tio Vito would say it.

Chameleon Street - Wendell B. Harris Jr.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtO71l46sLA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtO71l46sLA)
I wanted to call the TBS last evening to ask Stefani Robinson about her impression of this film, but I am never sure if my hair is alright, and I can't use the phone unless my hair is alright.
Anyway, Ms. Robinson mentioned "Juneteenth" during the interview. I remember seeing Chameleon Street (https://youtu.be/gtO71l46sLA?t=225) (about Douglas Street (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Douglas_Street_Jr.), a true "self-starter (https://aadl.org/sites/default/files/aa_news/aa_news_19841129_pa1-former_supervisor_describes_impostor.jpg)") in 1989 as part of a film celebration of the same name. In my film course, we compared it with Do the Right Thing (https://youtu.be/cOxOR3x8FBQ?t=25). Parallels with Mean Streets (https://youtu.be/8vw8t4O9JQM?t=37)were clear, but there were important differences. If I remember correctly, Do the Right Thing (https://youtu.be/4G7TTDEHl5o?t=84) and Mean Streets (https://youtu.be/bA4FU79vXHA?t=58)share a common story grammar and cathartic ending, while Chameleon Street and Mean Streets have a common character type, Johnny the Archetype (https://youtu.be/WZ7UwnfQ2nA?t=4), and, in each film, Johnny appears but differs considerably in how he expresses resistance (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtO71l46sLA&feature=youtu.be&t=263) to all of the stupid laws and expectations and barriers he encounters (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keZisXbu2tI&feature=youtu.be&t=21).
I got a C+ in the class, so believe with caution. If I were smarter, then I'd also tie in Ralph Ellison: Invisible Man (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTeTyMj3zug) - sadly, my paltry gifts end here.
Bonus: I think that Chameleon Street had a "comedy" treatment with Will Smith but died soon after that. Here are interviews with Mr. Harris that someone compiled that address this issue and others: https://youtu.be/N2iXwINvChE?t=60 (https://youtu.be/N2iXwINvChE?t=60)

SMOKE OR FIRE - INTEGRITY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlANf0BbtWo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlANf0BbtWo)
"…[What I wish I had known is that the midlife slump] is a very common thing. It is a transition that is natural and normal, in some ways analogous to adolescence, a version of it is seen even in chimps or orangutans and it’s tricky because we assume midlife malaise, when we go through it, is about something, there must be something wrong with my life or with my personality. But very often…midlife slump is literally about nothing.” - Jonathan Raouch, The Happiness Curve
Intrigued? Listen to The Happiness Curve on Matt Lewis Show: http://www.mattklewis.com/?p=9770 (http://www.mattklewis.com/?p=9770). It comes with a slide show: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Voyage_of_Life. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Voyage_of_Life.)
Next, maybe give a listen to Tiffany Haddish on Paul Gilmartin's Pod-thingy here:
http://mentalpod.com/archives/4816 (http://mentalpod.com/archives/4816).
Then, consider what little integrity Charles Murray has, especially with his latest “evidence” and condemnations. Yeah, but then again why? Nothing would change his mind about some of the real, underlying reasons for today’s inequities and their many roots in the carefully-planned failure of "projects, like Pruit Igoe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKgZM8y3hso (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKgZM8y3hso) and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq_SpRBXRmE (https://youtu.be/nq_SpRBXRmE?t=153).
I guess then I'll ponder my place on the Happiness Curve and wonder, "how I get here?" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQiOA7euaYA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQiOA7euaYA)
I am just full of blah-blah-blah (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bJM4dz095I), huh?*

Speaking of Emmanuelle, today I learned that movie stole Larks Tongue Part 2 for the soundtrack and Robert Fripp sued (and won)! I guess this means I gotta watch Emmanuelle again? Sigh.

True fact: At a concert, I heard Al Stewart tell a story about his childhood friendship with Robert Fripp who gave Al ten weird guitar lessons. Al quit to write folk songs, and Fripp did something else. But, they are still friends: http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/entertainment/music/sdut-al-stewart-concert-preview-2015apr01-story.html. (http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/entertainment/music/sdut-al-stewart-concert-preview-2015apr01-story.html.)
Here is Al performing in December 2018 - in the future, apparently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIDP99dwYQc. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIDP99dwYQc.)
Good show; nice, geriatric crowd.
Empty Pockets are his back up band and they are from Chicago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9a85mOhLlQ. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9a85mOhLlQ.) They seemed to be honored to play with him, but, at 72, I am sure Al is happy to have these kids around.

BAR BOOT - SHUKAR COLLECTIVE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BwUVFX-4zw (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BwUVFX-4zw)
In the community of my childhood, there was a dice game, "barboot (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nozjh3s-NY),” that the old men used to play. I was pretty young so I did not learn the village dialect or the game (plus, I grew up "here" and not "there"), but that foreign word and its abrupt syllables have always stuck with me. Barboot. I also recall my father hating the game and my grandfather loving it. I guess there were some debts to be settled sometimes / often, and my dad resented being "financier."
So, I googles “barboot” and I find this video by “Shukar Collective” (attached). I think they are a Romanian band or maybe some dangerous Mafiosi - How would I know? The music sounds ominous. Plus, the song is about gambling. Anyway, I can hear the "dice" clicking in the background of the video, so I think that I'm on the right track - crap-shot living at its finest.
For me, their video, Oh, Girl, tells a pretty amazing story about the old man's family. It makes me reconsider much about my grand parents - from among his tattoos and her tattoos and her smile, I bet they had quite a time. Whether you can understand the words or not, I think that it is a quite compelling tale of true love: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5kmzxzyrg0&list=RDR5kmzxzyrg0&t=1 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5kmzxzyrg0&list=RDR5kmzxzyrg0&t=1)
One life - use it up, I guess (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tnmK5YBGrU).
Or not (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnBovf8g-hg&index=11&list=PLA64_a73j3EhGRMTfXa9anxoLDHQ-xk6p).
I think they did a documentary on the band (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shukar_Collective) on HBO, but I don't have HBO.

The song lyrics to barboot are below. They didn’t help me much.

For goodness sakes, I am not typing about the nudie musical. Nope. I am typing about the hair on Micky Dolenz's head. For some, it was the day that Dylan went electric - shocking, unforgettable, unforgivable. That is not a reference point that is accessible to me. But the day that Micky changed his hair? That I can relate to: I was shocked; it was unforgettable...and it was unforgivable.
Thanks for ruining my childhood in your caftan, Dolenz.
...and who the heck asked you to scat?
And tell Tork and his hand tattoo to hurry up with my latte.
It's stir counter-clockwise twice, clockwise fifteen times, and counter-clockwise twice. THEN Serve.

These Days - Elliot Smith

Nico's version (https://youtu.be/-nGLqXZ-f70 (https://youtu.be/-nGLqXZ-f70)) is better in my opinion, but Elliot's is a close second. Jackson Browne's version is the worst of all, and I am glad that he gets nothing in royalties for it.
When Jacks can sing it properly, then he can wet his beak.
Of course, nothing beats anything by Sad Kermit (http://www.friendsoftom.com/forum/index.php?topic=10522.msg227736#msg227736), these days.

The Way The Eagle Shits - Mike Levin (1975)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98nEdKDNzkk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98nEdKDNzkk)
A commercial for vasectomies that was obviously ignored, since humanity has reach 7.3 billion 7.5 bilion beings now.
Note that if you are on the fence about getting snipped, it is painless and you can then blow all your money on yourself or on stuff you partner wants or just rack up a ton of debt and die unexpectely/happily or be generous and support the things that you love.
Or not? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-2bq0bxjMU&feature=youtu.be)
"The sky is falling! The sky is falling!"
"Oh? Well, I don't have children. Think I'll go for a walk."
Caution: If you roll stickies above your keyboard, then your e and d keys may only function occasionally. That goes for the letter r, too.

I asked my dear wife (she insists on that term) and reason-to-live what she thought of the video.
"He's a pretty boy," she said. "But don't ever dance like that."

I don't know if anyone has ever experienced something so profound, like finding a song that you'd been searching for and then, suddenly, finding it. This is that song for me, just now.
I remembered only a few bars and the lyrics were garbled in my mind, so I couldn't Google (tm) for them. But, out -of-nowhere, it has magically appeared for me to enjoy once again.
I..I might actually be...crying. Or just congested.

Bad News Bears (1977)
https://youtu.be/sloo9PMVoRE (https://youtu.be/sloo9PMVoRE)
I am convinced, and I will not be convinced otherwise, that Mr. Daniel "Hi, How Are You (https://www.discogs.com/Daniel-Johnston-Continued-Story-Hi-How-Are-You/master/58457)" Johnson himself must have seen this film in 1977, just as I did. The clip is the absolute proof. Ahem. The film, while...a film, had different effects on the two of us and our future directions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMYjCINcH9g (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMYjCINcH9g)). Of course, the outcomes will be the same for us in the end, so there is that.
Also of note from 1977 is this particular comic, Mad Magazine #190 (https://d9nvuahg4xykp.cloudfront.net/-7950034034783008472/-4255346716718343836.jpg), as it was the first issue of Mad that my dear mother bought for me. Many more issues would follow. We would read it together, and laugh, and she would take the time to explain all of the names of people that an eight year old would likely never know: Spiro Agnew, George Lincoln Rockwell, Twiggy, etc. I learned to read and to think critically during these very important years, because of these activities and others like them - courtesy of my dear mom who turns 90 this month.
So, a toast of sparkling water, to the year 1977 and my mom - there will never be a better '77 or mom for me.
Heh - I re-read this and it reminds me of Bugs Bunny as the great Władziu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7NZza-C-AY (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7NZza-C-AY)

1Strobe Light warning
Hey Fon - Did you ever dance The Weatherbee when you were a kid?
I remember seeing the tutorial sometime after The Monkees ran away, but I don't remember it ever really catching on. Perhaps a "big hit" in Fla.?
Thanks for the hello there, too - I have had a bunch of adventures of late, one that involved a trip that was nearly of no return. Nonetheless, I did return with some very interesting specimens.
Which reminds me...would you, or do any other FOTs know, if there is a PO Box for the Best Show? I have an artifact, a small booklet of sorts that is not easily obtained (there are many, many gates to pass and even more trials to endure once in the talcum), but well worth the risks for the adventuresome (Note: My hand is raised). Anyway, the text might prove to be useful to the show through its creative elements and words of wisdom - and, if not, then the item could always be sold on Ebay.
Happy Labor Day (https://youtu.be/ZPfmQlVBe2I), Fon, everyone. I won't be editing grammer, spelilng, or styul'n

MacAurthur Park (SCTV)

MacAurthur Park is my Karaoke go-to. It is rarely a request from my crowd, but I never, ever wait for them to ask. Just give, give, give - that's what I say.
The "Cake Out In the Rain" motif made another appearance in a different song, "Cuddly Toy by The Monkees (http://www.friendsoftom.com/forum/index.php?topic=4742.msg228517#msg228517)", which Mr. Harris used to weep-listen to in his room on his close-n-play stereo.

Kenny Everett - Round em up, put em in a field...
https://youtu.be/xGMWZJlA0QA (https://youtu.be/xGMWZJlA0QA)
Ah, good ol' Kenny Everett, a BBC legend who sadly died of AIDS in the early '80s. I can only imagine how he'd portray our current situation. Here is a retrospective of his work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQXksQ_uCSs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQXksQ_uCSs)
The content is likely NSFM (MAGAs or Millennials).
Note to Millennials: "They" called me and my generation "slackers" and we were anything but slackers - well, me, anyway. I've been working ever since I stepped out of mom, one leg and one ball at a time. Every Millennial that I've run across is working, constantly, just as I did and still do.

Moon Unit Zappa - Everyone is Going Mad
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0s2JJ3_c1Q (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0s2JJ3_c1Q)
Last week's call from the dood whose father has serious cancer and the attendant agony really tore me up. I lost someone close to me to that scourge over a decade ago, and I think that I am finally able to come to terms with it. I think, too, that Moon wrote this song about the loss of her father, and I played it over and over again to try to deal with the grief - well, that and this one by the Band o' Horses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMFWFhTFohk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMFWFhTFohk).
Sad music and barrels upon barrels of C2H5OH made for really bad coping skills for the next decade and more. I know, I know: who cares. But, someone might benefit from something in this ramble. Ya never know.
So, in case cancer touches you and yours, I'd suggest two things based on my very painful experience. First, contact a hospice early on. The person who is ill doesn't need to know, but cancer is may become a "hope-for-the-best-prepare-for-the-worst" type-deal and maybe rapidly. Hospices have tons of information about pain management, end of life care, etc., and, in my opinion, it is best to get ahead of things, rather than trying to figure out what to do when things get complicated, even more miserable, and crazy-making.
And that brings me to my second suggestion: family counseling. The hospital or the hospice will have a social worker who can help the family through each stage of treatment and care. My family and I ignored ours to our own peril. We had no experience watching someone die, and so a big part of us began dying along with our loved one. In short, there are professionals who have tons of experience working with families that are going through this terror, and asking for help is not a weakness - it is a strength. Our family fell to pieces during and afterward, and maybe that could have been avoided if we had professional help. We will never know.
Heh - I am only now taking care of it, as I am quite stubborn and do not ever follow the wonderful advice that I dish out to people who never asked for it.
Anyway, hope all of the FOTs get lucky enough to avoid this terrible disease. But if not, well, welcome to the club and know that there are healthy ways to get through it for you and your family. It will be hard enough without making it worse and worse and worse.
Note: That fan video of Moon's song is...fucking weird.

Hmm. My last post was quite depressing, even for me.
This documentary is quite colorful and joyous, unlike me.

The Nadas - Life Becomes Me

I like this little number. Any song that includes one being "this month's best employee" is alright by me. Being clean is so much easier. Life is actually pleasant and it, cough, becomes me.
Heh - I am rock-star party.

It's a Super Spectacular Day
https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=44 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=44)
From utub: "It's a Super Spectacular Day" This was on an old record in an issue of MAD that played a different ending each time you played it! Lyrics: http://barrygoldberg.net/sillysongs/superspectacular.htm#all (http://barrygoldberg.net/sillysongs/superspectacular.htm#all)
Hey Fon, maybe one of the eight endings from this skull-farmed artifact in my head will be a wining number.
======
Lyrics in order and at approximate times so that you don't wear out the needle on your close-and-play stereo like I did in the summer of 1980.
A Super-Spectacular Day!
It's a great big, beautiful, wonderful, incredible, super-spectacular day
And your heart is humming with good times coming
And you got that happy feeling things are going your way
All the bells are ringing and a little bird's singing while he sits on your windowsill
Singing yessiree, I can surely see, it will plainly be, most definitely
A super-spectacular day! Untilllllllll...
1. CHORUS - https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=69 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=69)
'bout a quarter to five your relations arrive
And you greet cousin Beth with terrible breath
And a fat brontosi who destroys your hi-fi
And your great uncle Fred who gets drunk in your bed
And your third cousin Dick who is metally sick
And his creepy friend Joe and six more you don't know
And you're sure there and then as you're shafted again...
That it's not such a super-spectacular day!
2. CHORUS - https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=120 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=120)
'Round seven at night you go out for a bite
The streets are aglow from a large UFO
A creature comes out with two heads and a snout
It croaks like a frog and throws up on your dog
It thinks you are great and wants you for its mate
You're sealed in a case and go flying in space
And you silently say as the Earth fades away...
That it's not such a super-spectacular day!
3. CHORUS - https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=170 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=170)
You walk out the door of a dry cleaning store
And you're grabbed by surprise by three mafia guys
Who mistakenly think that you're Hymie the Fink
They break your right arm and do bodily harm
And you're writhing in pain and you try to explain
That your name is Jerome and you're on your way home
And you let out a sigh as you're left there to die...
That it's not such a super-spectacular day!
4. CHORUS - https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=218 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=218)
A quarter past eight you pick up your blind date
And you really go ape for her fabulous shape
Of the girls that you've met she's the classiest yet
And she's pretty and bright and it's love at first sight
And it's really a shame she's not feeling the same
'Cuz she thinks you're a schmuck and she says "lots of luck"
And you sob in despair as she gives you the air...
That it's not such a super-spectacular day!
5. CHORUS - https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=268 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=268)
You're called down in class and you feel like an ass
'Cuz you don't have a clue and you know that it's due
To those classes you skipped and your fly is unzipped
And your acne has spread to the back of your head
And some jerk spreads the word that you're some kind of nerd
And you fight in the hall and punch for a wall
And there isn't a doubt as they're flunking you out...
That it's not such a super-spectacular day!
6. CHORUS - https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=319 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=319)
You develop a twitch and a horrible itch
And you're covered with spots and you're getting the trots
And you're feet start to swell and it's easy to tell
From this hideous wheeze it's some awful disease
So you call an M.D. and he says "don't ask me"
If it gets any worse you can speak to my nurse
And you manage to say as you wither away...
That it's not such a super-spectacular day!
7. CHORUS - https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=369 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=369)
Your sister pours glue in her hair and blames you
And your neighbor says that you're abusing her cat
And you just left the john with the water turned on
And the house gets all wet and your mothers upset
And you'd die if you knew what your dad's gonna do
And your python gets loose and you know it's no use
And you cry there in fear and it's now very clear...
That it's not such a super-spectacular day!
8. CHORUS - https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=418 (https://youtu.be/myyc812X1_I?t=418)
You go out for a spin and the sunroof caves in
And the steering wheel shakes so you slam on the brakes
And the gears get all stuck as you sideswipe a truck
And you run out of gas while you're trying to pass
And you're stalled on the tracks and you try to relax
But the train's coming through and it's heading for you
And you have a quick flash as you brace for the crash....
That it's not such a super-spectacular day!

All the Great Operas in 10 Minutes - Kim Thompson
https://youtu.be/5vNReqUGtsc (https://youtu.be/5vNReqUGtsc)
Just in time for your GEN ED midterm in Music 101 is this bit of test prep. You can thank/blame me later for remembering it.
Around 1996, it played on AZ PBS when programs would run short. I thought it was brilliant then, and I still do. Glad that some utubber posted it, and so do a few other people.

Documentary: The Harder They Come (1972)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDolgtjAPzU (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDolgtjAPzU)
I haven't seen the original film in years (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6dieHrQIC0 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6dieHrQIC0)), but I think it's worth another look. It introduced me to Toots and Maytals, great harmonies and rolling rhythms, and Desmond Dekker and his voice. I learned about it in film class, when we studied archetypes and film. Here, we have the Country Mouse moving to the Big City to make it...Big. My film prof and dear friend is long dead, but the learning and memories live on.

Meantime
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Llcgzs1jNOM (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Llcgzs1jNOM)
Above is the trailer for Meantime featuring Gary Oldman, Tim Roth, Alfred Molina, Telly Savalas, and the Muppets. I think that this was a made-for-tv movie for the BBC. The full version is on utube somewhere, or you could just rent the thing. I think it's worth a few bucks. Here is the IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082727/ (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082727/)
Oh, and here is Mike Leigh talking about Meantime and its historical context: https://youtu.be/7jgQyLpsAhc (https://youtu.be/7jgQyLpsAhc)
Who loves ya, baby?
Note: I find the theme song both moving and haunting: https://youtu.be/wSw7QxFaIJA?t=52 (https://youtu.be/wSw7QxFaIJA?t=52)
The Death of Ritchie (1977)
https://youtu.be/_psTWVJnrgc (https://youtu.be/_psTWVJnrgc)
If you're short of cash, then here is a sappy, made-for-tv movie from "across the pond" - The Death of Ritchie 1977 featuring Robbie Benson (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robby_Benson#Early_life) and his heavy New York via Texas accent. Heh, sometimes the twang appears. The message seems to be one that says, "If your kid is out of control, then kill him." What a fine message to send to the parents of the 70s!
It's worth viewing for free. I watched it with my dad when I was about eight in our wood-panel basement with the the faux bar room decor, Kent clouds, the fake wood-console tv with the numbers worn off the dial, and my beloved box of legos...ah, my legos. Oh, if you're hesitant about investing time in this terrible ABC Movie of the Week, well, I'm telling you - you are in for a real treat: https://youtu.be/_psTWVJnrgc?t=588 (https://youtu.be/_psTWVJnrgc?t=588)
Brick says, "Yeah, he smokes, but he don't inhale! Hahahahahahahaha!"
Spoiler alert: https://youtu.be/_psTWVJnrgc?t=4636 (https://youtu.be/_psTWVJnrgc?t=4636)
Fon, I love your posts and your pod, too - not sure what the advantage is of posting my crap there, but out of respect, I will do so from time to time.

Lord Sutch BBC Documentary
https://youtu.be/Wc_y6p55MBs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc_y6p55MBs&app=desktop)
So, Marilyn Manson (https://youtu.be/5W6rCR_eai8?t=38) ripped off Alice Cookies (https://youtu.be/P1h38gC23bw) who ripped off Lord Sutch (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ibx1wZoqQIY) who ripped off Lon Chaney (see London After Midnight (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTJsZXpDgqs) and Phantom of the Opera (https://youtu.be/sa3bHKWZoJg?t=28)).
Fun Fact: Frank Zappa thought Alice Cookies was a better stage name than Alice Chicken Cooper.
My favorite childhood memories were of gluing Glow-in-the-Dark Aurora Monster Models (https://i2.wp.com/universalmonstersuniverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/2c5bcc_92a1df1b33054790a1460ef893d3a696.jpg) together with my mom. Of course, the Phantom of the Opera model was the best of all: http://wesclark.com/am/phantom_1.jpg (http://wesclark.com/am/phantom_1.jpg). But then again, The Mummy model came in handy later in high school, because I could hide pot in the pot (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rQ6YnZ1BKXc/WfCwZHHBHNI/AAAAAAAAX2s/utPV5YHTO2Y0ngOyXqRT336ayRHTccTQgCK4BGAYYCw/s1600/Aurora-Mummy.jpg), so I guess it's a toss-pot between Chaney and Karloff.
I, too, recall that the red tube of Testors Cement for Plastic of the '70s held the models together quite well and even gave you a little buzz, while the blue tube did neither. Kids, do not try that at home; you'll end up shit posting on the Post Burning Site of some future message board as I am doing now.
I think that this is the full Phantom of the Opera (1925) movie here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QKpWPut8iM (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QKpWPut8iM). Note: The stuff in the mummy's pot might come in handy for this piece of history.

My favorite childhood memories were of gluing Glow-in-the-Dark Aurora Monster Models together
I remember them being too easy to put together and the fact that they looked better without the Glow-in-the-Dark parts.
The drawback, of course, was they didn't glow in the dark.
