Ever felt like..

Posted by Nude(Ollie's Big Ideas) on May 31, 2008 at 5:30am

You dont know where your going but you keep traveling with no moving? its kind of happening to me lately , my friends call it the pre 30's single phenomenon , sort of i feel this way cause i got no one depending on me wich , if i may , i consider unfair , i depend on me .. however i dont feel like having a family just yet , is not that i dont want to or that i refuse to grow up , its more because i want to be able to aford it and to other things with my savings right now..For instance i want to travel to europe , i want to see radiohead live (cause im starting to accept they wont ever come here)and get all the guitar gear that i want before having someone or some others depending on me. I know... i read it and it may sound like i refuse to grow up but on the other and i want to have a house.. another car and all thouse things that in my opinon are needed before you even consider to get married.perhaps im wrong and i should adjust to the classic society models where you just jump off the plane and dive your way down.. i dont know , i just , if it ever happen , want it to be like my child's will got all they need , not more , not less...Sorry for the pre 30's hysterical note.Comments are welcome.

Yeah, yesterday was a good day. No beer though.

Well... Yesterday was a good day, so I guess I was right for once.Have had the pleasant news that a local branch of FoE was opening in the city I live in. As usual when I go to this kind of meetings, I feel weird, for a lack of better words. I don't know anybody in these circles, as I am not a member of any association of this current of ideas. Let's say it's because I like my independance, in politics at least. So, people stare at me (look, she's less than 30, how come she's here ? Does anyone know who she is ?) I feel like I'm intruding, even if they are not hostile or anything (of course they aren't.) Today's session of 'who's that girl?' was funny ; one of the organisers, after greeting everyone he knew, came to me, saying 'Hi. you are... ?', probably waiting for me to say 'Oh, hi, I'm from the *** local group' or 'from the *** association, we really like what you do'. Instead, I said 'Just curious.' After sputtering a few words, he left. Is that supposed to make me feel welcome ? I didn't know I was that scary. But, if anything, it's just funny.Anyway, the meeting was nice. Not much I didn't know, but it's always nice to refocus your knowledge. The best point of it all was the attendance of representatives of two city councils. One from the very town of Lille, which is very positive because it's quite a big city and could become an example of how cities could develop sensibly. The other one was from a smaller city, which is fine too because that man told us about the difficulties of raising money for any green city development. In France there has been a huge buzz on ecology last year, during the campaign for the presidential elections, and after the elections during the Grenelle de l'Environnement, which aimed at determining French politics concerning the environment. The discussions were including a financing of city planning partly by the State ; which has miraculously disappeared from what the law has become at the end of the Grenelle. Oh, and, yeah, the law concerning the GMO, which had been censored by the French assembly, has been forced by the government. Will the Légion d'Honneur be given once more to lobbyists ? Doesn't mean anything anymore anyway.So, yeah, nice to hear from local politicians who are interested in environmental matters. And they knew what they were talking about ; let's see if they are given the possibilities to act.I guess just for that, it was a good thing to keep going to this kind of meetings, even if I think I'll probably never completely belong.And the place, even if creepy (huge cold old house with big windows and creaking wooden floor), was nice for once : we were in a room which was used for a Claude Cahun exhibit . I didn't know who the hell was this artist, and I think I like her work. I felt spied on (what eyes she had !) and didn't take enough time to look at the photos at the end of the meeting, but I like it anyway.

Finishing for today with this link to a Le Monde article (I'm too lazy right now to translate it), about how a wedding was cancelled in the very city I live in, the same city that had this nice FoE meeting and Cahun exhibit, because the bride had lied about her virginity. Because obviously, brides' virginity is still considered as something of interest in France.Thinking more and more and more of moving to Bhutan...

Coldplay are idiots

Posted by James on May 30, 2008 at 1:52pm

I just heard the new album and surprise surprise its very boring. They are trying to be radiohead but fail miserably. The proof of why they are idiots lies in the fact that at an Arcade Fire gig last year Chris Martin said he had "discovered" a record called Loveless by a group called My Bloody Valentine. Thanks for that Chris, now shut up and make some music thats actually interesting. Rant over.

OM NOM NOM

Posted by Nicole Marie on May 30, 2008 at 4:36am

The middle part of today was consumed by the longest, most rambling memorial service EVER, in honor of my dad's sister's husband's father. Why so long? It started as a Catholic funeral, then came the hordes of veterans telling rambling stories, and THEN they brought in the full honor guard for a 21-gun salute/taps on the bugle/slooooow folding of the flag for the widow.This evening, I consoled myself by making the best salad ever. I needed to record it somewhere, so… here.The best salad everComposed of torn red leaf lettuce, baby spinach, and thinly shaved fennel bulb and radishes. Topped with toasted pumpkin and sunflower seeds. Dressed with thinly sliced shallot mellowed in lime juice, whisked with honey and olive oil.Heaven!

New Thom Yorke Pics

Posted by Helen D on May 28, 2008 at 11:30am

Stunning new pics on Thom Yorke's site. Thanks Thom

I'm New to this Site.... but this is one cool fan site!!!!

Posted by coolkat on May 28, 2008 at 1:46am

Hey All, Love W.A.S.T.E. it totally rocks as a fansite period let alone being about Radiohead. Can't wait to see these guys again in Chula Vista..saw them there with Supergrass in 2006. Hope all of you are as excited as I am. I'm still a little bit P.O.'ed about buying the tickets through a scalper because TM blows and I didn't know about the presale through WASTE, but LIVE & LEARN. Anyway, I'll have to post my dream setlist and see how close they get to playing it. Bringing my wife & I who have seen RH before and 2 daughters..this will be their first RH show. They are pretty excited to be sure. Hopefully, can see some of you there.

Dead space ventilation

Posted by wu on May 27, 2008 at 9:49pm

A portion of every breath we take is wasted on what is called dead space, those areas within our lungs that don't participate in gas exchange. Our immune system is designed to both protect us and kill us if the need arises. If you tallied up every cell in and on our bodies, you'd find that we are outnumbered by an order of magnitude by the bacteria, viruses and god knows what else we rescue from evolutionary deletion. Even more startling, 20 percent of the protein you digest is your own -- you literally digest a bit of yourself every day, to make new bits of yourself, every day. Roughly every seven years, every cell that makes you you has been replaced; even your bone. Entirely new; entirely not ourselves but exactly ourselves. One has to wonder how we manage to hold on to our memories. We are cannibals, we carry death and scourge, we change unwittingly, we decide what to eat for breakfast. Yesterday I woke up sucking on lemons. Who cares. As long as everything's working.I'm about to head to England for summer vacation after a grueling year at school, and while I should be excited to be spending my last 3 months of freedom till retirement indulging every hedonistic whim that strikes my fancy, I feel quite numb and listless. Can't say why. The easy answer would be that all the parts of me I had to selectively mute in order to get through the year just haven't come online yet, but I know that's not it. I haven't packed a single thing yet and I start traveling tomorrow.Last night I was saying summer goodbyes to some friends. Regan, who's on hula-hooping scholarship for medical school, said: "The next time we see each other, we're all going to be different people". Is it possible to mourn for that part of yourself you know is passing on even though you know that what's coming is going to be infinitely better? It's like putting a plate of food in front of someone who's been in stage 4 starvation. You realize the magnitude of what you've been going without for so long, and it immobilizes you.I'm now listening to Amnesiac. If I could administer it intravenously I would.

guitar status

Posted by Jeanette Parker on May 27, 2008 at 7:30pm

commencé à apprendre "you really got me", des Kinks! chanson vraiment cool, et à 95% en powerchords, mais rythme et vitesse pas évidents (sans parler d'essayer de chanter dessus! j'arrive tout juste à mmmm / m-m-m-m-m-mmmmmm...).sinon super contente pour Planet Telex: réussi à faire la transition A- à B (7e frette) sans à-coup, à 72 bpm (la chanson est notée à 75... on y arrive!), ce qui est vraiment LE truc pas évident. le reste roule! ça me tue de jouer cette chanson au métronome, mais je dois reconnaître que c'est super efficacethe Rip tourne maintenant à env. 60, même le passage G (3e frette) - Emin (7e frette), que je trouvais assez difficile avant. Ca manque encore de fluidité, mais mon bras gauche est HS pour ce soir!... mais je suis déjà contente que ça tourne! le vrai rythme est autour de 70, on y arrive bis!

and try to turn off that lights....

Indiana Jones And The Studio Of The Crystalised Plot

Posted by Helen D on May 27, 2008 at 12:00am

I'll resist writing a sensible review of the latest 'Indie' film 'Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull' because it doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is; a formulaic comedy action romp fulfilling all the expectations of anyone who has seen the previous 'Indie' films. If you liked them you won't be disappointed.
