An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the world.So he bought a plane ticket and took a trip to Orlando, thinking that he would start by working his way across the USA from South to North, then into Canada and on to the rest of the world.On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read '$10,000 per call'.The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for.The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 you could talk to God. The American thanked the priest and went along his way.Next stop was in Atlanta. There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it. He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in Orlando and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God.'O.K., thank you,' said the American.He then travelled all across America, Europe,England,Japan,Australia.In every church he saw the same golden telephone with the same '$US10,000 per call' sign under it.The American, decided to travel to New Zealand to see if Kiwis had the same phone.He arrived in South Otago in N.Z. And again, in the first church he entered, there was the same golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read '40 cents per call.'The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign.'Father, I've travelled all over the world and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven, but in all of them price was $10,000 per call.Why is it so cheap here?'The priest smiled and answered,'You're in New Zealand now son - it's a local call'.KEEP SMILINGIf you are proud to be a Kiwi pass this on!

Christoph Schlingensief
Strange how now that he is a dying man for the first time I find myself appreciating something he is doing. So far most of his art (although I have to admit that I did not take the time to really take a closer look) seemed rather on the selfish side, always more or less experiments about how to make the audience aware of himself or how to imprint a piece of himself on others.
Of course this is still exactly what he is doing but it seems that now he has found something in himself that is so overwhelmingly beyond his control and at the same time so applicable and generally true for so many others. And I admire him for attempting to put this into words and have people take a look at what nobody wants to look at.
Disease, that is not a subject most artists take a liking to. Death -great! Suffering - bring it on! But disease - no thanks. Exploding has always been more interesting than waning, but let's face it: most of us do wane, only few of us explode.

Anyone But You

Posted by PrttyBrd on April 20, 2009 at 9:47am

Blame it on bad timing or the weatherBlame it on traffic or your kidsBlame it on whatever is handyBlame it on someone elseBecause God forbid you see fault in yourselfTo be responsible for your own actions regardless of the outcomeThere are worse things in life than an honest mistake or bad choicesBut to be blind to the fact that they are choices you yourself madeOr to close your eyes and pretend that unforeseeable mistakes did not happenAnd seeing the outcome effect othersWell, that's just a weight not worth bearingSo man up and take the fall since it was you who stumbledDon't take anyone along for the rideYou will find that you won't be alone on your journeyBut that decision is yours alone to makeLiving in denial of self, with no trust and no heart will never lead to happiness

Time Saving

Posted by PrttyBrd on April 20, 2009 at 9:39am

Is cutting corners to save time worth the effort? There never seems to be enough time no matter what you do to save it. So I say spend as much as you can. Spend time with young minds and innocent hearts. Take the time to give that extra smile to make someone's day. A tiny bit here and there will not be lost, for so much is gained in those small yet giving moments. After all, when a bit of time is saved, it is usually spent doing nothing. so what was it saved for in the first place?

Remembrance

Posted by Lewis on April 19, 2009 at 2:27am

Well Jesus Christ all-fucking-mighty, I completely forgot Waste Central was here. I'm glad to see that this dark corner of the internet still acts as a hub for the emotionally tormented, the chronically self-aware, the photophobic and the erythrophobic. We Radiohead fans, basically. Note: must soon retreat to bedroom to write song with complicated chord structure and lyrics concerning my restricted anal-faecal development and subsequent neuroticism. It will be called No One Understands Me So I Wear A Hat.

Mi experiencia en el primer concierto de Radiohead

Posted by Maureen on April 18, 2009 at 11:20pm

Llegué desde las diez de la mañana, me encuentro que eso de que había mucha gente que se había quedado a acampar, fue una GRAN mentira, había MUY poquita gente desde que llegué, por los nervios no pude almorzar bien y mucho menos comer, lo que sabía que iba a pagar en el concierto! Además de que por tres días dormí como tres horas! rolleyes.gifLo bueno de haber llegado temprano es que me tocó escuchar cuando la banda estuvo en las pruebas de audio! Y escuché algunas de las canciones que tocaron más tarde, por cierto ensayaron Climbing up the walls, pero no la tocaron! Supongo que la tocarán hoy!Ya entrando al concierto, me empecé a sentir MUY mal, no tenía practicamente nada en el estómago y me fue imposible conseguir algo que no tuviera carne! Creí que me iba a desmayar, pero no me lo permití! por nada me iba a perder este concierto, y no sé como fregados le hice pero aguanté todo el concierto!Cuando salió Kraftwerk me sentía en la antesala al paraíso! Honestamente creí que me iba a aburrir con ellos pero fue mejor de lo que esperaba! Cuando empezaron a montar el escenario de Radiohead, ver la Telecaster de Jonny casi me da un infarto!Minutos después ver salir a la banda! WOW! No tenía idea de cual iba a ser mi reacción y me pusé a llorar como niña chiquita! Empezó 15 step, baile, salté y moví la cabeza como loca, me sorpendió mucho que tocaran Airbag, tal vez por que inconcientemente no quería que la tocaran! Me hizo llorar desde el principio pero contuve las lágrimas!Me tocó casi en valla frente a Ed! Que sexy es él y sus movimientos de cadera! Colin como siempre efusivo, a Phil lo vi muy poco, y Jonny amo y señor de la guitarra! Thom tan lindo como siempre, y que SENSUAL fue cuando canto Nude!En Optimistic sentía que me desmayaba pero seguía moviéndome para mantenerme en pie! Por suerte siguió "Idioteque", fue INCREÍBLE! pero creo que faltó algo de emoción! wacko.gif Fake Plastic Trees, le rogué a todos los dioses que la tocaran y se me concedió! Se me llenaron los ojos de lágrimas con las últimas líneas: "If I could be who you wanted...."Sabía que iban a tocar Videotape, siempre me ha hecho llorar esa canción y no me pude contener, lloré y lloré y lloré, por lo que muchos me vieron con cara de "pobrecita", pero me valió!Cuando empezó Everything in its right place, me sentí como cenicienta cuando dan las doce! Me quedé con MUCHAS ganas de escuchar "How to disappear completely", aunque tal vez estuvo bien que no la tocaron por que con esa de plano no sólo iba a llorar, me da un ataque de llanto que hasta el aire se me va! mellow.Terminando le dije a mi hermano que me guiará hasta el bar para comprar agua, y me sumergí en el mar de gente que había en donde vendieron los productos de WASTE, que por cierto creo que ofrecieron muy pocos productos,todo para olvidarme por un momento que ese día mágico había terminado y no acordarme de que hoy no voy al segundo concierto! :( Pero ahora que llegué a casa, quiero llorar y llorar de alegría de saber que POR FIN pudé ver a Radiohead! Y obviamente no será la última vez!

My experience on my first Radiohead concert!

Posted by Maureen on April 18, 2009 at 11:00pm

I arrived at ten in the morning, and I found out that there was not that much people camping, it was a big lie that there were thousands!Let me tell you that because of my stupid nerves I was not able to have a decent breakfast and of course no decent meal, and I knew I’ll pay for that during the concert! Also I was not able to sleep more than three hours for three days!It was good that we arrived early (my brother and I), since we got to listen to the sound check! I heard some of the songs which they sang later during the concert, they rehearsed Climbing up the walls, but they didn’t play it! I guess they’ll play it tonight!When were finally inside, I started to feel VERY bad, I had nothing on my stomach and it was impossible for me to get something without meat! I thought that I was about to faint, but I didn’t allow myself! Nothing could have made me leave the concert, and I don’t know how the hell did I do it, but I was able to withstand!When Kraftwerk came out I felt as if I was in paradise’s antechamber! Honestly I thought that I was going to get bored with them, but it was much better than I expected! When they started to set everything for Radiohead, I saw Jonny’s telecaster and I almost had a heart attack!Minutes after I saw the band coming out! WOW! I had no idea of which was going to be my reaction and I started crying like a little girl!15 step started, I danced, jumped and moved my head like crazy, it surprised me so much that they played Airbag, unconsciously I didn’t want that song to be played, brings back bad memories, it made me cry since the beginning but I held the tears!I was almost in the first line in front of Ed! He and his hip movements are SO sexy! Colin as always cheerful, I saw very little of Phil, and Jonny is the master and lord of the guitar!Thom as nice as always, and so SEXY when he sang Nude! During Optimistic I felt (again) that I was about to faint but I kept moving so that I could stay on my feet! It felt as if they were saying: You can do it!Lucky me the next song was “Idioteque”, it was FUCKING AMAZING! But I think there was a lack of emotion from Thom and a little from the audience!Fake Plastic Trees, I begged to all gods for this song to be played and it was granted! My eyes were full of tears with the last lines “ If I could be who you wanted, all the time…”I knew they were going to play Videotape, that song always makes me cry and I was not able to held the tears this time, I cried and cried and cried, many gave this “poor girl” face, but I didn’t care at all!When “Everything in its right place” started, I felt as Cinderella when the clock let her know it was midnight! I really wanted to hear “How to disappear completely”, although it might have been good that I didn’t listen to it, because this song not only makes me cry, I don’t really know how to describe it but I fall into this big dark side and takes me a while to come back from it!When it finished I told my brother to lead me to the bar so that we could buy some water, and then I immersed myself to the sea of people that was at the place they were selling WASTE products.Now that I’m home, I want to cry and cry of joy, because I can’t believe that I was finally able to see Radiohead! And obviously it won’t be the last time!

I'm enormously frustrated by the new blog formatting. I can't get poems to format properly in all spaces of the blog no matter what I do. Anyone with insight, I would appreciate it!God knows why I've decided I *must* post bad poems on this site of all spaces, where nothing stirs except a constant torrent of new members who appear and then vanish again into the ether, but so I must.

Happy Anniversary, Ed

I've just come back from a beautiful concert: The Notwist played in my city tonight, it was fantastic. Wonderful sound, too.
Also, British Sea Power apparently play at Glastonbury this year! YAY!!! (I was sort of hoping for Radiohead but BSP is almost as good news)
