Pedal Power

Perhaps if working up a sweat makes us realize how much energy goes into maintaining our otherwise unsustainable (and self-destructive) way of life, we'd also consume less? Dare to dream... and we do...

TWENTY-EIGHT

Posted by dylan m on May 1, 2010 at 6:00pm

or.

a cabin outside of glenwood springs colorado. surrounded by the mountains in a little valley. 1989. a valley of tall grass. or short trees. cool summer's night. sitting in a flimsy plastic garden chair. the good son playing over and over again as i took it all in. missing her, a state and a timezone away. most likely repeating the ship and weeping songs. play. rewind. play.rewind.play. i don't think i had my nice aiwa portable cassette player yet but maybe i did. not sure.

g-d. all those portable cassette players i owned. auto reverse. little red battery lights. super bass. anti rolling mechanism. high bias. radio presets. digital. plastic. metal. i always wanted one of those yellow sport walkmans but there was no reason to. i'm not even a big fan of yellow. i'm sure somebody had one. somebody i wanted to be.

the night was quiet. the stars were out. the air was clean.

and i was removed. distant. somewhere else. in pain. in longing.in sadness.

but now: paradise.

Why don't you just run straight over me?

Cycling in Cologne during rush hour on Friday afternoon surely brings out the worst in me. After I returned home from my errands I was ready for murder, despite my formerly happy mood. This might have to do with the fact that I was almost decapitated by the monstrous side mirror of a tourist bus while I was already cycling (illegally, I might add) on the fucking sidewalk!!! I swear I could feel the draft of that mirror in my hair while that huge bus rushed by with ludicrous speed. I don't want to think what would have happened had I actually been in the road.
Other than that: all well. Leaving for Leeds tomorrow, looking forward to Yorkshire scenery, my host Laura and her parents, and British Sea Power on Monday.
Checking my pms and e-mails with no real expectations but with enthusiastic anticipation nevertheless.

Apology

Posted by PrttyBrd on May 1, 2010 at 5:30am

I did not see.
I could not understand.
I believed I could.
I never knew.
I am sorry.

Really?

There is no way to prepare for the day that the reality of monsters lies squarely on your shoulders. It truly is profound, and there is no turning back time. One day in one split second, it will never be the same.

looking glass insecticide.

.ye of the looking glass faith . i will gaze upon your media beaten eyes . inhale a sigh of the oxygen deprived world which encompasses thou and use a shield of energetic babies breath to veil her from the masked man underneath the calm . the perennial cross bearer dawns a new light . uncovering the bloody mess of stars and blue and white . a psalm sung by the mute . a hymn moaned by the magdalena . a tythe given by the leper . superlative accidental insecticide wings and supernova shadowed in a curtain of grey . its only been one winter corsage given by my doppelganger . a skeleton of insight and street knowledge who violates the transparent graves of the vapid in a broken synthetic fiber itching its way through to eavesdrop on a forgotten transistor recalling the supernatural way of life . a vital organ poised on a virtuous high strung deprivation . the looking glass breathes static .

Happy Birthday

Posted by w.a.s.t.e. on March 11, 2010 at 8:00am

BBC 6 Music - 8 years old today. Something worth celebrating: I mean, when Chris Moyles and Ken Bruce aren't for you - and Radios 1 and 2 strive to appeal to ever younger and older listeners - where else can you turn during the day?

Happy Birthday 6 Music, and all you other nerdy music lovers everywhere....now let's fight for many happy returns.
