The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get. You're Wasting Your Time

It Ain't Hard to Adore You

When you finally break my legs,
and I can never leave the house again
Then I'll finally love you, and we can have some kids.

Big Mouth Strikes Again

the fall > joy division
and I think that the fourth gender would agree with me (though "incredibly boring" may be a bit harsh)

ALSO:
Endless Pretension

what brand of Clove cigarettes were you smoking when you wrote this one "Dr." Thorpe? Better stock up before 2010, you'll have to go to Mexico--best to avoid being surrounded by all those Smiths Fans. But I will make a few concessions- "Meat is Murder" is way over the top, the meat sizzling in the frying pan was too much. That, and Pavement is terrible.

This Will Be Our Year

It took a long time to come!

At Your Window

"After a showing of TITICUT FOLLIES the mind does not dwell on the hospital's ancient and even laughable physical plant, or its pitiable social atmosphere. What sticks, what really hurts is the sight of human life made cheap and betrayed. We see men needlessly stripped bare, insulted, herded about callously, mocked, taunted. We see them ignored or locked interminably in cells. We hear the craziness in the air, the sudden outbursts, the quieter but stronger undertow of irrational noise that any doctor who has worked under such circumstances can only take for so long. But much more significantly, we see the 'professionals', the doctors and workers who hold the fort in the Bridgewaters of this nation, and they are all over...TITICUT FOLLIES is a brilliant work of art…" - Robert Coles, The New Republic

Sleep in the Canyon

window please watch the sun go
hope that the stars know it's time to shine.
daydream - be born on dark wings
let every sky sing this song of mine.

Extraterrestrial Results

Dear Ariel Pink,
I think you're a little scary in person, but will you marry me?

Time Bandits

“above the roof of the world, supported by seven pillars, and the seven pillars are set on the shoulders of a genie whose strength is beyond thought, and the genie stands on an eagle, and the eagle on a bull, and the bull on a fish, and the fish swims in the sea of eternity.”

Thank You Terry Gilliam!

Hoist up the John B Sails

Let me go home. This is the worst trip I've ever been on.
