Parade Brigade Fanzine #1: The Reviews

We put out Parade Brigade Fanzine #1 in the spring of 1999. I have no idea what show we released it for, but I think it was at Manville Elks Lodge. Maybe. Amendment 18 Demo This band has members of a number of bands (Insted, Chorus Of Disapproval, Outspoken, etc) I had different expectations for this demo expecting more moshy stuff, but I got straight forward hardcore with interesting breakdowns. Lyrically, this isn’t as “militant,” as xChorusx was, but good all around especially “Eulogy.” I look forward to more. BW Bane Holding This Moment Equal Vision Records Bane sort of…

Winter Reviews

Innumerable Forms Frozen To Death Tape Chris Corry and DFJ’s death metal project put out a seven inch a few years back, but this tape shows a lot of progression. The tape has two new songs and the three songs from their previous ep remixed for this new release. I am not so sure how many copies of this tape were made, but track it down if you enjoyed their seven inch.

Show Review: Cro-Mags/DRI

Uh, the Cro-Mags are playing? Sign me up. A big bonus for this show was that DRI was also playing (and headlining, not that it really matters). I drove up to Sayerville on a rainy, rotten evening that made me feel miserable as I made my way up the Parkway. I left late, hoping to miss the openers, but I ended up getting lost in the actual town of Sayerville, which killed another 20 minutes or so. The venue’s website said it was “easy” to get to the venue, but despite that I could not find my supposed exit off Route 9. I…

I don’t need to explain this one. Bad Brains 171A Sessions 7″ Has anyone else noticed that a lot of Bad Brains demos are popping up the past few years?

Here’s the idea: Instead of doing regular Signifying Nothing podcasts this summer, I thought a cool idea would be to do podcasts chronicling the famous Top 100 Records of the Eighties that Pushead did many years ago.

Yellow Order

Let me show you a recent custom order I created.

I love them. I didn't want to let them go! I hand dyed the yarn myself and we all know how much I love the color yellow. Sad to see them leave, but so happy they'll be keeping someone else's hands toasty warm :D

I knit them out of this yarn, that I mentioned back in this post.

They were knit in a nice ribbed pattern to ensure that they fit a range of arm sizes and the mitten flap open up to allow the fingers to move freely to unlock the door, turn on the car, answer the phone, and reach into your wallet all without having to sacrifice the warmth of your hand!

Neighborhood Fanon:Sunset Valley

Al-Dar, or The House, is the social conservative faction that is against the celebrity culture centered around Bridgeport. It is not only against the celebrity culture but also what they see as indecency of the mainstream Sim culture, such as beach parties glamorizing revealing outfits. As they are against such vulgar aspects of the culture, Al-Dar in many cases are allied with the Church, although Al-Dar disapproves of the Greek call for female activism in leadership and scholastic developments.

Al-Dar's residence is in the Chapel-Barrack style house, left vacant when the Initiates went along with Kallisto et al. to Hekatonschoinos (and did not bother to reoccupy once they returned).

Political ActivismEdit

Initially, Al-Dar was pretty much unheard of: Sure, Ayham may have been buddies with Lysistrata due to occupational issues but that was it: Al-Dar did nothing interesting enough to attract the attention of the outsiders, and the only people who actually paid any attention were of the Church. However, due to the policies of the Church as well as Chrysanthema's own community services, the Al-Dar made another ally inside the church before the Big 6 packed up and left Sunset Valley. From there things start to pick up for the Al-Dar: the two other members, Omar Qutb and Anwar Arafat joined up with Ayham and Usaim for one. Ayham and Usaim never bothered to maintain the house: Kallistrata's hunger for life fruits had left their garden well taken care of, and the Al-Dar never bothered to check the Nectar rack that now stored some valuable nectar made by Kallistrata (and alongside that of Kallisto, Hypatia, and some that were just plain bought, the last being the least valuable), and with all the combined efforts, Al-Dar got themselves some cash.

Al-Dar then proceeded to shape the political field of Sunset Valley, now that the Big 6 is gone and Sunset Valley has now a huge gap. Al-Dar sought to fill it with their ideas, beginning with a small mosque: The Greek Church happily supported the construction of the mosque, and Al-Dar contracted with the Greek Church, the Church agreeing to provide any fund that the Al-Dar cannot provide for themselves regarding the construction of the mosque. The Church acquired the piece of land right next to the Al-Dar's Chapel-Barrack and forked that to the Al-Dar, which became a controversial move: Has the Church gone too far? Should they be favoring a minority? Or it is a simple shielding? However, the Church endorsement of the mosque led to an underground ultranationalist party calling itself the Patriot Party in Sunset Valley, declaring itself the proponent of the freedom of the SimNation and declaring the Al-Dar as invaders and the Church as a collaborator.

Although Patriot Party was still a minority party in Sunset Valley, Al-Dar found itself threatened by the nativist appeal of the Patriot Party amongst native sims (that is, not Greek nor Muslim) Along with that came the Attalids, who also were sent back to wait until Kallisto finished the redevelopment of the Church capital world of Hekatonschoinos, further strengthening the xenophobic appeal of the Patriot Party amongst the conservatives, although those who'd buy into it the most, such as Nick Alto and Nancy Landgraab, were dead. Eurydike sent to Chrysanthema the Church success at resurrection, and specifically instructed Chrysanthema to revive the Altos and the Landgraabs, to cause a bigger bang to snuff out the Patriot Party's appeal. Al-Dar on the other hand wished to use positive methods, wishing to hold a BBQ gathering (without pork) at the Amphitheatron, and requested lease of the said property.

Although Al-Dar had initially wanted to lease things from the Greek Church, they suddenly decided to refuse any handouts from the Ecclesiarchy, but rather fund the construction of the mosque on their own. This was helped by Anwar embracing Kallistrata's idea of mercantilism, turning into a small nectar producer and a tinkerer, the latter suiting his skill as a handyman. As such, Usaim presented his opinions to Chrysanthema, who agreed (although Kallisto wasn't so happy, since Kallisto wanted to use the opportunity to turn them into reliable allies/vassals) to the Al-Dar's new position. But due to the pressure form Kallisto, Chrysanthema insisted that the Al-Dar lease the land instead of purchasing it, and Al-Dar was agreeable, since having significant real estate would make them visible. Anwar's position as a nectar maker and a tinkerer had an appreciable effect on the public image: in fact, Anwar himself was nominated as a children's hero, akin to the likes of Bob the Builder and eventually ends up a minor celebrity in the area, Esomena and Pyrrha happily writing a series presenting Anwar as a main character. Omar on the other hand decided to pursue a career in Sports (something that was approved by Usaim), hoping to help out with the Al-Dar finances, especially since a mosque would require some funds.

Sunset Valley RenaissanceEdit

The formation of the Papal State significantly weakened the Ecclesiarchal control over Sunset Valley when it comes to law. With the Papal State becoming a separate state, the Ecclesiarchy was significantly less able to pressure the government to pass measures to halt what they thought was harmful, such as the ever-so-looming threat of papparazzi-created rumors, and before the Papal State the Ecclesiarchy was able to pass several ordinances with their vast political influence to shut down the papparazzi. However, this is irrelevant to Al-Dar's participation in the Sunset Valley Renaissance, which was bolstered by their choice of residence.

Al-Dar has been well-endowed with the resources previously left by the Initiate househould when Kallisto built a second Naos-Stratopedon to house them. With them out of the picture, Al-Dar was able to claim the house without much resistance, and even after the Initiate household returned, neither the Initiates or the main chapter lodged protest, since Initiate household settled for the Epiteichisma style house formerly occupied by the Alkmaionids. With the house came a number of upgraded nectar makers and a batch of very high quality fruits, which was of particular interest to the engineer Anwar. Of course, Usaim being an outdoor man also looked towards the fruit trees and vines with much interest, but it was Omar who actually started the Al-Dar takeover of the vacuum in the nectar market left behind by departure of Kallistrata.

While the Renaissance took place, it was then Al-Dar actually took the effort to build an austere mosque, having 3 minarets while having very little ornamentation inside the mosque. Although the mosque was built, it hasn't caught any major attention yet for the better: the Patrioty Party having problems inside their own ranks, namely the rift between the United Snake and Divided Snake.

After Esomena ordered the second reformation of Sunset Valley, in which Esomena pretty much cleared the town, Al-Dar were given special rights and were eligible to stay along with a few others, such as Boyd, Yumi and Artie who remained one of the most pro-church residents of Sunset Valley. With Esomena and not Kallisto on charge, Al-Dar pretty much had even more leeway and plenty of cash, as well as a decent income especially due to lack of competition given the lack of a local nectary for a time being, which Anwar took full advantage of given his dedication to nectar making and tinkering. With Esomena effectively doing nothing to fill the gap for the time being, Anwar takes the role as the chief vintner of town. Of course, Esomena's reformation also meant the destruction of the first mosque, which led to the plans for a bigger one. With the Altos and the Landgraabs gone (save for Holly), Al-Dar essentially became the local "nobility" that is technically independent of the Ecclesiarchy, alongside the Aidouoi.

Here the Al-Dar started to produce good brands, effectively establishing themselves as an viable rivals to Kallistrata's state-run nectar business: Al-Dar's main brand, the Blessing of Allah, was celebrated by the connoisseurs as a break from the life fruit laden nectars of Kallistrata, and with the good reviews and short supplies (Anwar's work is less plentiful compared to Kallistrata's), kept prices high. The other brand, the Medina's Passion made by Usaim, also gained positive reviews, although that nectar was considered more fit for the commoners and the lower upper class rather than the elites. With cash flowing into the house, the Al-Dar started to join the hybrid culture in Sunset Valley, contributing to the melting pot. By doing so, the Al-Dar relaxed on their strict insistence on quasi-Victorian dress code, partly due to the Ecclesiarchal encouragement for the said dress code. On top, the Al-Dar soon found the Aedui quite amiable, both preferring large social gathering in a relatively patriarchal environment. Given that the Al-Dar got good foreign friends, the Al-Dar found it less interesting to complain about what they thought was wrong with the Ecclesiarchy, specifically the relatively feminist environment.

Dear Family and Friends,

We survived transfers!  Sister R and I are together fort another 6 least!!!!  This week we biked 59 miles and had 18 lessons.  We are still working with Charlie and Jackie, our top 2 investigators, and hope to help them progress toward baptism this transfer.  Prayers for them would be great!

 We also went on exchanges last week.  I stayed in the Arrowhead Ward with Sister Price.  I don't really like exchanges because it's weird to have a temporary companion for the day, but it wasn't that bad.  We had fun with each other, and now the Sister Training Leaders understand why we're so tired all the time.  The hills in our area are killer!

 This week Teancum (my bike) broke his toe.  It was so sad.  My pedal broke in half, so now I've got to figure out how to get that fixed.  Hopefully they have pedals at Wal-Mart!  It's just a little harder to pedal because my foot isn't balanced, but it's not that bad.

 We also attended a pool party for Relief Society last week, but didn't swim of course.  It was tempting, but we just talked with members and got to know them better.  We also had several people come out that we invited, so that was great!

 This morning Sister R and I played tennis with the J's and they kicked our butts, but we will get better and before this transfer is over we'll beat them...maybe.  I didn't realize how much I missed tennis.  It was so fun, and since Sister R and I both played in High School we are planning to play more often.  It was great.

 This week I also came up with a cool lesson.  When we call 9-1-1 it's because we run into an emergency, so 9-1-1 is supposed help us out right?  Well, I have come up with a way to get out of a spiritual emergency.  In The Family Proclamation it says, "Successful...families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities."  That's the 9 things.  Then we learn in Moses 7:18 that we are to have "one heart and one mind", which represents the 1 and the other 1.  I know that if we live by these principles then our families can receive help when we have spiritual emergencies.  Remember that it doesn't mean that we won't have emergencies, but it does mean we will have help.

I hope everyone is having a great week.

Sister Moon

The Best District Ever :) and we're staying the same!

Teancum's toe!

Thanks, Samantha! I love what a little lab paper procrastinizing can do for our knitting group. I'm not sure how to use this whole thing yet. I want to post photos and stuff but that may take a while.
My hubby strongly hinted about me making him a sweater. That is, he said, "I'd really love for you to make me this sweater." So that might be my next SECRET project as long as I could finish it before Christmas. Problem is, I think the sweater pattern he chose is ugly and will look bad on him. What to do?
Next, I will use my Product Maven persona to chat a little about what's been going on in my little noggin beauty-wise. That is, I have (Sus3an, you will be so proud of me!) been using Ponds Cold Cream! Both the cleanser (the cool classic) and the moisturizer. I am very happy with the results. Using the cream as a cleanser was initially very weird and I would not recommend it to my younger friends as it is unmistakably greasy. But for us old geezers it is non-drying as we say. At night I combine it with Retin-A cream, which is probably cheating, but don't my face look grand?
All this is inappropriate for a knitting blog but there it is.

Then Intermarket proved only UAH 145 mln. As a final decision the new owner, Eurotech took responsibility to pay back only 75% of given amount

"Nah. Wrapping paper, not rolling paper."

When you’re a little lonely, and you’re driving around, dropping in this drug store, that book store (if it’s still open), that grocery store, that gas station... you’re just lonely out there, driving around, dropping in these places, and the people working there are yacking to each other - joking around, gossiping, complaining about their jobs, wishing it was closing time, making plans, etc... when you hear all this going on, and you think you can inject yourself into their world - their conversation - their scene - just because they are there and you have this access to them because of the nature of their work, dealing with the general public... They rebuff my ignorant, arrogant intrusion of course.

If I were to rate myself on a scale from purely ‘urban minded’ to purely ‘rural minded’ - I mean - whether I consider myself a country mouse or a city boy - I’m somewhere in the middle of the scale. 'Somewhere in the middle' is where I inhabit most scales and spectrums. I was a suburban kid... somewhere in the middle. Well the middle is a tough place to be. The middle has been disappearing for a while, right? least the chunks of ice that I find myself floating on seem to be melting. I’ll skip the stats and sociology and so on (and even the structured thought) and I’ll babble this: That with all of the ‘with us or against us’ talk, and the recurrent headlines pointing to the growing rift between rich and poor, and the struggle for moderates... it’s tough to remain in the middle of any spectrum.

In the media and in society there are these character types. People are compelled to dress themselves in the garb of some type... such as: A. The Hipster B. The Country Music fan or whatever... The pull of these character types sucks the identity right out of you. Similar to personal politics - there might be one issue you feel strongly about - you’ll go to whichever side appears to represent your interest in that one issue.

You end up where you end up. I was born in Portsmouth, Virginia because GE opened a new facility there, my dad worked for them. I’ve lived somewhat urban and been lucky to avoid getting shot, stabbed or robbed. I’ve lived rural, and have somehow managed to avoid the ‘Most Dangerous Gamers’ who’d strip you naked and give you a fifteen minute head start before they let the dogs loose.

I haven't made any friends in Florida yet!

1. My expectations for Florida were obliterated rather quickly upon arrival. I don't know why, but I just didn't expect it to be the typical southern state. That sounds really stupid, doesn't it?

2. I live in a county outside of Orlando... I guess that with these outlying areas - there are still families here who have been here for generation upon generation (depressingly similar to Virginia). They're suspicious of newcomers - younger newcomers, that is. I guess they're used to the retirees.

3. The friendliest people where I live are the retirees.

4. Metro Orlando is expanding - like all metro areas. I live in Eustis - an area that is reasonably accessible to Orlando metro (by DC standards, anyway), yet still pretty isolated. I guess you live as close as you can afford to - to the metro area - to your job. The poorer you are, the longer your commute. When you live so far from your job, your home life in the county is so different from the hustle and bustle and diversity and tone and attitude and utility of your work district. (My new boss is Muslim... and I'm somewhat ignorant but trying... but the day before we left for the holidays, I got to watch everybody who worked in and near our department stumble through their seasons greetings to my boss: Happy you celebrate. If not, enjoy your time off.)

5. I get here to Florida - to the Orlando area - and they've shattered their all time record for murders this year. There're more murders here than in Miami. Only Jacksonville has more - but Jax is way bigger.

6. The lakes are so poluted. There are signs next to the lake that warn you about killer amoebas and shit. Do not swim near the bottom. Wear earplugs. Wear eye protection. Even the cold water burns. It's all farm run off and industrial waste.

7. The one great poetry reading down here that I found, Speakeasy at Wills Pub on Mills Ave., hosted by Todd Caviness... it ended a few months after I got here.
I have had many jobs, as I have stated here before. One advantage of my transience at these various places of employment is that it gives me the opportunity to place amazing prank calls! Most of the companies I have worked for have had toll free numbers with automated switchboards. It is so easy to dial in, and find the extension of the person I’m looking to mess with, and go right into their voicemail. The people I like to prank call are, of course, jerks. That is why I do this to them. They are the kind of people who like to blare their voicemail messages on speaker phone - loud as shit every morning when they come in. So if I’m lucky, they’ll blare my crazy prank message, and not be able to get to the phone in time to disconnect - and people nearby will hear my message: I’ve got gonorrhea, you’d better get checked out soon. Or, here’s one: Hi. Yeah. You don’t know me. But until very recently, I was seeing your wife . . .
I wish it was ten years ago. Fifteen even.

Maybe I shouldn’t talk about such dark stuff. Maybe people would be more comfortable around me if I kept things a little lighter. Here’s an example: I recently steered a conversation from the subjects of bouncy balls and silly putty, to the evils of IBM and their involvement in the Holocaust. This conversation went bad fast. The guy I was talking to, some I.T. guy at work, probably has mentally labeled me as a freak for life!

I’m always talking about crime or tragedies or the underside of this or that. You know what else? I don’t regulate my thoughts. I let them go to whatever crazy places they will go to. I don’t manage them at all. And here’s the goofy part - the reason: I’m afraid it will kill my creativity if I try to block out the scary stuff . . . if I block out anything.

I’m such a weirdo. I’d like to have normal interactions now and then. But usually - no. And on that note I’d like to point out the following: There are people who have not even been born yet who will end up yelling at you. If you could somehow see into the future and identify these people, maybe you could burst into the bedroom of their parents right before the person is conceived... and like . . . scream at the people... Hey, cut that shit out!
. . . better off primitive . . .

Today I was piecing together memories, and I realized how close I came to a particular ass whipping. I was mean to a guy, I bumped him - kind of shoved him - because I believed (correctly, it turned out) that he was doing it with my girlfriend. But, he was a black belted bad ass mofo. Luckily for me, he used his zen jedi emotion restraint techniques in dealing with me instead of using some exotic death grip. It’s easy to be all zenned out and happy and pleased with life and balanced when you’re doing somebody else’s girlfriend.

I came upon the realization of this narrowly averted disaster, as I say, by piecing together bits of memory from that time period... that time of my life was hazy - when it wasn’t incredibly foggy. I didn’t know he was a black belted, kickboxing dangerous man until well after I bumped him of course. I later kind of became friends with his friends, many of whom were kickboxin black belts (a couple of whom were also messing around with that girlfriend of mine too). They used to have these crazed hacky sack sessions around the corner from where I lived - all night - there were six or seven of these guys - I thought they were regular old stoner hippies. They were always out there hacky sackin: three, four, five in the morning - pupils so dilated, they could actually swallow hacky sacks in their eyeballs. I thought they were all peaceful, wimpy stoner hippie dudes. But they were fearsome warriors. So probably - if that guy wanted to - he could have brought his whole black belted, hacky sackin, acid tripping gang of crazies down on me with quite a fearsome fury - in effect - using me for a hacky sack. It’s just one of those times when I should have gotten my ass kicked, but I didn’t. I’m not sure why this didn’t occur to me until now. I guess I used to think I could beat up six black belts at once and I didn’t give it a thought... or maybe I did realize it back then - that it was a close call - but I forgot that I realized it, and today while I was supposed to be working, I realized it again.

How often have you come close to getting your ass kicked? Do you even know?

EATING MY OWN REALITY FOR LUNCH (or was it breakfast)

You can’t leave home without checking the oven three times. Did you turn it off? Did you unplug the iron? You have to check your alarm clock four times so you don’t sleep late. And when you do leave: Did you lock the door to your place before you left for the day? You should probably drive home right now and check. Because there might be a burglar there now - stealing your stuff - because you left the door wide open. Maybe he’ll turn off your oven for you. Maybe he’ll unplug your iron too (so he can steal it).

What you are really doing is ruining your grasp of reality. As you convince yourself that: no, you did not lock the door, the very door that you just saw your own hands lock, or, no, you did not just check the oven already and see that the switches were all turned to ‘Off’ position, and you didn’t even use the oven this morning anyway, nor did you use it last night, and so most likely, the oven has not been on for two days straight just cooking nothing, approaching critical mass, preparing to burst your whole home into an inferno. Probably not.

The more you do this weirdo obsessive shit (these things are symptoms of a greater mental problem, incidentally), the weaker your grasp on reality becomes - The more easy it is for paranoia to completely permeate your consciousness... and soon you don’t even live in the real world - and you erase pieces of memory and so you don’t know where the hell you are in your timeline... Soon you’ll be doubting whether you did anything at all - and then it’ll be time to just have a seat on the sidewalk and wait for the help (that you need) to arrive. I realized the danger of this reality eating condition today - I was adding long columns of numbers, and I kept going back, “Did I add this one?” “Did I add this one?” Yes, I had, but I thought, “No,” I hadn’t, so it was sucking off all of my time and stealing my memory of reality or blotting it out.

trying on makeup just so I can cry through it

[Man, I’m in a weird mood lately - I’m about to get canned from my job I think. Rats. Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the south, Bob’s collectin cans, so he can get soused.]

Is phone sex ever really a good idea?
leave me a message
and after these messages
we’ll be right back
What about cubicles?
good or bad
I’ll tell you a truly bad idea:
Now that we’re herded into cubicles
tearing them all down
in order to
‘open up the space’
is a bad idea
marketing campaigns headed up by
people who have no friends
and don’t get out
people who have no friends
and don’t get out
who intentionally damage their computers
so that friendly people will help them
bad idea

Maybe I ran out of interesting stories from my past, I've got nothing interesting happening right now, and I can't even imagine anything interesting. I'm just observing. Reading the news - barely reacting to that.
I'm sorry I'm not very interactive lately. I'm not going to kill off my blog (NEVER!) but I'm just not as active (not as INTERactive) as I used to be with it. I feel bad because some of my old old bloggin friends get back into it just as I'm entering a slow period - or new people start up, and they're really enthusiastic about it, but I'm just blah. I remember when I first started - I was lucky to be blogging around with a lot of other newbies and we were all blogging are freakin heads off and really really into it . . . but . . .

I am still posting stuff, but I am so selfish - I don't read other people's stuff enough. I had been operating under this rule that I made up, but then I slacked on it, but it is this: Post something and do not post again until I've gone around and read everybody else's latest posts. If you're talking too much and not listening to what others are saying - you start to lose touch - which is probably bad.

I haven’t had the true blogging oomph in a while now. I’m not comfortable enough at work to start the all out blogging campaign - not yet - but really - I’m suffering a general indecisive . . . somethin . . .

Like many writer wannabees (but unlike many other writer wannabees), I have been trying to come up with a Writing Plan. What should I write? Poems? Short Stories? Essays? Memoir? I wander around the bookstore - the BOOK STORE SECTIONS - wondering where I could shove something. Lately I’ve been hanging around the comedy sections in book stores. It is really more wide open than one would think. I’m excited about the comedy section because there you find books like the following:

This Book Will Change Your Life by Benrik

The Areas of My Expertise by John Hodgman

. . . maybe I could pull off some wanked out scatter brained variety book like this with pranks and jokes and weird plans and what-ifs and scenarios and weird bits of wisdom and knowledge.

Also I’m excited about books like the following which can also be found in comedy sections, . . . books that come from brilliant ideas - books which write themselves - or are not really written at all by the authors but edited - written by the public - like sociology experiments or something --- once they’re conceived they accumulate and form on their own - books that are interactive and so very in touch with the people who’d actually be reading them:

Suggestion by Illegal Art, Michael McDevitt, and Otis Kriegel

My Secret: A PostSecret Book (Postsecret) by Frank Warren

Found: The Best Lost, Tossed, and Forgotten Items from Around the World by Davy Rothbart

All of that reminds me of this, which I find incredibly fascinating and brilliant and noble, and I wish I could think of something on this scale:

GREETINGS FROM NEW ORLEANS - An Experiment in Found Art

Right now, I’m reading:

The Lay of the Land by Richard Ford

. . . I like it, but it’s really kind of sad. It’s sad in that the main character is going through shakey times: cancer, divorce, weird second marriage - but it’s also sad in that the main character is a salesman type who totally encapsulates perspective buyers and people in general and just sums people up and pretty much reads them like account balance slips ... reduces them . .. and he seems pretty hung up on fashions and money and name brands and materialism - but I guess that's the characterization - but it gets old . . . I mean - his observations gradually work toward something more, more profound, but not really - not mostly - I don’t know - I can’t put the book down, I'm enjoying it - so I guess I don’t know what to make of it -- I’ll tell you this - IT’S THE FUNNIEST BOOK I’VE READ IN A WHILE - I mean this dude is funny - I think I first read Richard Ford when I read an essay of his about punching people in the face - I think - I think it was in one of those yearly “The Best American Essays” books - anyway I’m sitting there laughing out loud at his book in the miserable lunch room at work lately - with a table to myself eatin my salad and blah blah this post will just trail off into nothing right about . . . here
C3PO meets Fraiser

I could lie and say I've gone on medication and live up to this lie by using a method acting technique where I actually emerse myself in an imagined normalcy. That'd be a fun prank to pull.

It's finally finished!

If you're here for the first time, welcome - this is a blog where I'll be posting additional juicy tidbits about this silly film and how it was made. Maybe other films in the future?! Woohoo! (Note to any lawyers reading: Lawsuits are WAY more trouble than they are worth.)

First, I gotta introduce and thank some folks:

The smoke monster was voiced by Peter Michail, who has mad voiceover skills and kindly lent them to me, along with an entertaining string of curse words and vitriolic glee.

Brad Gake gave us creative feedback, and occasionally harassed Pete when he felt he wasn't being funny enough.

Michael D'Ambrosio let us use his recording studio at work after hours! Thanks Mike!

Scott Lowe cut together a lot of the live action footage. He also enjoys coffee, and has a thing for scarves.

And my name is Anne, and I came up with this ridiculous idea, designed the smoke monster, animated the whole shebang on the quick, and proceeded to forget about it for 7 months until it was completely outdated.

Hope you enjoy! Leave comments! More will be coming soon, hopefully!

I love my new washing machine.
I do.
It’s white and shiny. It fits into the hole just perfectly. It holds almost a teenager’s-bedroom-floor-ful of dirty clothes and washes them with barely a sound. Best of all, I don’t have to wear wellies to go in the kitchen when it’s working.
I can almost forgive Currys for a) delivering a day later than promised, thus leaving us stuck indoors for a whole day unnecessarily) and b) delivering at the end of the day instead of first thing in the morning as promised, thus leaving us stuck indoors for a whole day unnecessarily. Typical that these two days happened to be the only decent weather we’ve had all week.

Friday was nerveracking enough as we waited to hear from my brother’s consultant. (I realise now how long it is since last I blogged). We were half expecting a phone call to say “Hop in the car and come along for a squeezed-in appointment” as there’d been a tiny breakdown in communication at the hospital between the radiographery types and the consultant – he’d wanted to see my brother straight after the tests but nobody told him that the tests had been done! As it is, he phoned and made an appointment for my brother and me to go in on Wednesday to see him because he actually wants another specialist there with him and that is the first time that both can fit us in. He wants me there too, as “rear gunner”.

If you’re not aware, my brother managed to have a cerebral bleed in July. Caught us totally unawares as the boy and I were on the Isle of Wight on holiday and my big brother was staying in my flat doing a couple of jobs. The boy happened to ring him at 10pm on the Saturday before we came home – he wanted to have a bit of a rant to someone about what a mean mother I am and how little I understand him 😉 – but my brother just said “I’m not well” and hung up on him. The boy was a bit shocked that I didn’t allow myself to get worried and keep ringing, that I went to sleep and started ringing next morning, but I knew there was nothing I could do, whatever the problem, as it had sounded as though he was in the hospital and I knew his phone was switched off. But next morning I started trying to contact him, all with no reply.

I rang a friend who lives locally and got her to try the hospital, see if he was there. No, they said. He’d been there the previous night but had been discharged about 11pm. I rang another friend who lives locally and got her to go round to the flat. No sign of life, and no flashy car parked nearby. This was the moment to start worrying. Where. Was. He?

We went to church. We came out. No missed call or text message on my mobile.
We went to my friend’s as arranged for lunch. No call or text message on my mobile.
I couldn’t decide – should we try for an earlier ferry (we were going back that evening) or should we wait?

Then the phone rang. “Hello. Is that Smudgie I’m speaking to?”
“Yes, who is this?
“Can I just confirm your relationship to “MrSmudgie’sbrother”? ”
“I’m his sister” (I missed out the “much younger and more beautiful” bit)
“Oh good. I don’t want to worry you. This is St George’s Hospital in Tooting. We have your brother here. I found your number as a series of missed calls on his mobile and thought you might be his next of kin….”

To cut a long story short, he’d had a cerebral bleed (one of the less-frequent kinds of stroke”. He’d developed a headache and had realised he wasn’t thinking straight, that his language was a little odd, and he felt a bit strange so, thinking that it might possibly be a stroke, he thought it would be wise to be on the safe side and DRIVE HIMSELF to A&E!!!!! He arrived and immediately had a prolonged epileptic seizure, ended up on a ventilator, and was NOT actually discharged from the local hospital in the way that we had understood it, he was TRANSFERRED to the specialist neurological unit at St George’s.

God is good. Tests showed that my brother had a faulty connection in the blood vessels of the brain since birth – this bleed could have happened at any time,… while he was at sea, while he was up the mast, while he was at his house which is 60 miles from the nearest hospital…. but it happened while he was in my flat which is very close to A&E and near to one of the best neurological centres in the world. He managed to drive without incident to the hospital whilst in the throes of a cerebral bleed, and recognised instantly what was happening so was treated extremely promptly. The bleed was large but localised on one area of his brain and seems to have done minimal lasting damage, which is totally miraculous considering that the mass of blood was the size of a satsuma. He’s doing really well, but does need some sort of intervention now as the cranial angiogram he had last week shows that the weakness is still there. I always said he was weak in the head!

The area of the brain affected was the language centre. He’s a very active and physical man so it was a real relief that it did not affect him physically. He’s also an intelligent man (don’t tell him I said that) but his intellect remained intact. Initially his talk was mostly unintelligible. By the second day he was starting to make more sense, but the words just came out wrong. I think our family will now always refer to a portable computer as a FLABLOB as it is the most perfect of words. I arrived to visit and the allocated nurse called me on one side to ask me some questions, one of which was to ask me what his occupation was. “So he isn’t, and has never been, a chartered accountant?” The word is so similar to “master mariner”, isn’t it?

The best conversation was when he asked me to bring him some water on my next visit. “You don’t mean water, do you?” He knew the word was wrong and tried again, but the sentence still came out the same. I tried doing twenty questions – was it something to drink? No. Was it something to eat? No. Each time he started the sentence again to see if the right word would come and each time it came out “Can you bring me some… er… water”. But we both remained patient. He knew it was wrong, but we were both confident we’d get there eventually. And eventually get there we did. “Can you bring me some pyjamas” !!!

Each day has seen a marked improvement. Words came quicker than numbers. Nouns came quicker than pronouns. Patience, patience, practise, practise. Now, four months later, the pressure of blood has reduced (though not completely shifted) and his language is almost back to normal, except when he is tired or under stress.

So now we wait to see what Wednesday brings. A bit nerve-racking, we know that whatever intervention they choose will carry a significant risk, but the risk of having nothing done is greater (40% likelihood of a recurrence from the same site) . But at least once something is done there is a chance he’ll be allowed to drive again next year ( six months of no driving is a challenge for a man who loves to drive and who lives in a very remote little village), he’ll be able to have the occasional drink (four months of no alcohol has been a real life-change for a man whose social life revolved around a glass of guinness or a bottle of Merlot), he’ll be able to lift heavy things and climb up ladders (he works as a handyman now) and walk up hills (he lives in Scotland, of all places). And most importantly, he’ll be able to finish off the decorating in my flat!

The washing machine didn’t come today.
This is not good. I had gone off to work this morning full of anticipation of a sparkly new washing machine waiting in my sparkly clean kitchen (thanks, big brother) when I returned home for a few hours between my two shifts today. I’d even saved up a special load of washing to christen it with. But though the kitchen is sparkly and clean, the washing machine looks remarkably like my old one.

Still, they got my brother in the right mood – he’s waiting for a call regarding an appointment at the hospital tomorrow to find out what they’re going to do about his head. Boy, did he give them stick! The washing machine was promised for today – we have it here in blue and white (written in blue biro, not printed in black ink) – and it was only on his insistance that we purchased it from Currys in the first place, seeing as they were already in my black books for their attitude about a fault with my telly. So it sounds as though the machine will be here FIRST THING TOMORROW!

Meanwhile, he’s out on the drive fixing my car aerial, we hope. It’s rather nice having him here! 😉 . As I drove through the multi-storey carpark, the aerial bedoiiiiinnnnnggging on the ceiling joists, I thought to myself “it’s a good job I’m driving forwards, in the correct direction for it to twang safely, and not reversing”. It was only when I had parked in the parking bay and realised that I was going to have to reverse to get the car back out again that I realised there was going to be a problem. Bedooooiii…,SNAP!”

Me, next job on my list is cleaning out the hamsters. I’d rather be doing the aerial. There has been, yet again, a population explosion in the tank – from two hamsters we suddenly seem to have eight in that tank! I wonder how that happened!!! Worst thing is, while the babies are weaning you have to avoid cleaning the tank out, and the second brood of babies arrived before the first lot had properly left the nest, so .. er… it’s been a while! Something makes me think that maybe I’d better set up a third cage and separate off the hamsters with the tiny-extra-bit for a while. What do you reckon?

Dusting off the cobwebs

Well, I haven’t been here for a while. I won’t be here for long now. Mega-shift tomorrow – 7-10 in the morning followed by 3-9 in the evening and a snatched lunch with my big brother in between. But clearing away the cobwebs in here is more fun than clearing a space for the new washing machine in the kitchen so I’ll quickly squander the last ten minutes before bedtime by stating my intention of being a better blogger again in the near near future.

It’s all that pot-bellied pixie’s fault.

Taking the plunge

Tired of always taking and never giving; tired of saying “no” to so many things because I can’t even think of justifying paying for them; tired of seeing things I want to get/do for people and having to say no because they’re beyond my budget (even a £2 toy in a charity shop!); tired of wondering why we haven’t taken advantage of the £5 tickets at the Globe for an eternity and then realising why; tired of “waiting for the end of the month” from very close to the beginning of the month; I have given myself the kick up the backside I needed and applied for a second job.

It looks right up my street, and to tell the truth is the only sort of part time job I could fit in. It’s flexible and working from home mostly. It’s using the computer to produce worship materials and posters and other sundry bits and bobs. It will need plenty of self-discipline to fit it in, but the flexible and “at home” working means I can sit in the lounge and do it while the boy is watching interminable repeats of Top Gear and so appear companionable without being bored senseless. And I can easily use it to substitute for the time I fritter away at the moment on Bejewelled Blitz and the like.

I have an interview on Friday. The job could well have someone else’s name on it. I’m not holding my breath. But… oh, I am ready for it.

Meanwhile, this flat needs a really good sort out… just think, if I were to get the job I could maybe even spare a bit of the income to pay for a cleaner!

I just posted this on a friend’s facebook (you know who you are!) and realised that actually it was a moment in time worth recording for posterity..

The boy just had his hair cut. I nearly squawked on his behalf when I saw the barber make the first cut – but by then it was too late. I am resisting the temptation to call him “Shaun”. My poor boy, who did a good impression of a cross between a Highland Cow, a Yak and a Dulux Dog now looks more like my penguin avatar! I was a supportive mum and did not laugh (much)…. but not envying him his arrival at school this morning.

Still, he’s learned a lesson about listening to mummy. I’ve been nagging him to go to the barber’s since the beginning of his three week half term holidays, saying that he’d then have time to let it grow a little and not look quite so “newly cut” by the time he went back to school.

Good thing he’s gaining the maturity to laugh at himself…… poor lad!

Just, on an impulse, re-read my profile page on here.
How out of date can a profile page be?
Interesting to see what had stayed constant and what had changed.
It’s now more of a relfection of my current circumstances – though the last line remains true!

PS Any suggestion that I spent time updating this in order to postpone all the other things I am supposed to be doing is entirely in the mind of the beholder… honest.

From home to home and back again

I love Easter.

People talk of “thin” places. For me, Easter is a “thin” time… a time when all my nerve endings seem ultra-sensitive to the amazing presence of God. It is the best day of the entire year. Christmas is nothing in comparison.

Since moving, Easter has been the one day when I feel ever so slightly homesick for the Isle of Wight. There’s something about the way we’ve always celebrated Easter on the Island. Now, our church here has a sunrise service, just as we did on the Island, and provides an Easter Morning Breakfast before the morning service, just as they did on the Island. But somehow it seems more sanitised, more “proper”, more “church” – held at the tennis club with microphones and seats – not quite the same rawness as huddled on the concrete cricket strip on the recreation ground. And even the breakfast feels different.

And so it was that we decided to return “home” for Easter this year. The ferry fare justified by the fact that the bungalow needed cleaning through before the tenant moves in this week. So a day trip wouldn’t be enough – overnight seemed too short a stay for how much we were spending – travelling Friday would have been extortionate – so Thursday it was. Hotel? Too expensive. B&B? All booked up apart from those that were too expensive. Stay with friends? Too restrictive.

I’d vowed never to go camping again.

Well, I’d vowed never to go camping again unless I had a proper bed to sleep on. So, a quick trip to Argos. After all, camping WAS the only option. And the campsite in East Cowes was tied in a deal with Red Funnel which seriously reduced our ferry fare. So, blithely ignoring the weather forecast, we packed tent and sleeping bags, camping table and chairs, brand new campbed and not-so-new airbeds, and off we went.

It was brill. 😀

The campsite was beautiful – overlooking the sea. The weather was mixed -torrential rain and cutting winds contrasting with brilliant sunshine. Brilliant sunshine with bitterly cold atmosphere, I hasten to add, but it was pretty even if it was freezing. Sleeping was fine on my comfy new campbed, all wrapped up in sleeping bag and duvet and several layers of pyjamas. It wasn’t me who was complaining. No, it was the Explorer Scout. It’d be cruel of me to mention that the boy forgot to pack jumpers, forgot to pack pyjamas, forgot to pack a warm sleeping bag (“MY two-season bag should have been warm enough, it is spring, after all!”), and wriggled so much during the night that he first fell OFF his airbed and then managed to pop the stopper and find himself very deflated in the middle of the night.

Cleaning the bungalow was … er… well, I can’t particularly say I found it easy… and I can’t particularly honestly say that I did an extremely thorough job as a result… but I did it… and managed not to be toooooooooo resentful of how spacious and lovely it is in comparison with our tiny tiny flat (which I do really like but which is just that bit too small, that bit too expensive, that bit too close to the pub and the sewage farm!).

We managed a “grockle day” too.. though a bit difficult to decide what to do seeing as we’d planned to go to the beach (toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cold) and had a sense of “we’ve been there before” for everything else. So we went to the donkey sanctuary. Always a winner. And free 😀 (This latter was an essential factor in our planning seeing as our arrival at the isle of wight coincided exactly with my overdraft limit being reached!).

The best bit, though, was the look on peoples’ faces at each of our “home” churches on the Island and the former colleague we dropped in on for coffee. What made it better was that it was the boy they saw first – the boy who’s considerably taller than last time they saw him. We relished the “I’m sure I know you from somewhere” moment, suddenly desolving from puzzlement to surprise and then pleasure when the penny finally dropped. It was lovely to be welcomed with so many open arms and expressions of delight. Home indeed. (My current home church isn’t one where hugs and kisses are the norm…) Sad, though, to realise that everyone is getting older – all my Isle of Wight friends were older than me – and the unspoken “Is so-and-so still alive” which accompanied every conversation made me realise how lucky I am now to have friends in every age bracket, most of them the same age or younger, now that I live in suburbia.

I love the Isle of Wight. It is still my home – far more so than the town where I was born and grew up – and we seemed simply to slot back in as if we’d never been away. But it is lovely to know that I love my current home too. I feel so settled and so part of life here – I wouldn’t want to move back.

Going nowhere

Well, the decision has finally been made – we’re going nowhere.
Six months of Smudgie Towers standing empty was more than enough for my bank account to cope with (a fact borne out by our recent experience of a weekend’s holiday beginning with the local cashpoint refusing to give me any more cash!) so I have finally bitten the bullet and arranged for the agents to put tenants in. The new resident moves in tomorrow. A long awaited day – suddenly my overdraft will be converted into just enough credit to last me until my wages go in at the end of the month.
Could we afford to move even into slightly bigger rented accommodation? Don’t be silly! This is the Surrey/Greater London border. We’re lucky to be able to afford anything bigger than a cardboard box.
So, we’re going nowhere.
At last, the excuse I needed to invest in some paint and decorate. I use the word “I” in its loosest possible form, of course. I am the one providing the constant supply of caffeine and spotting the “painter’s holidays”, my darling brother is the one roped in to doing the actual decorating whenever he can come down to stay for a few days. So it will be slow work. Alongside me trying to sort out some of the accumulated clutter. Not all of it – I actually quite like my cosy environment but do have rather more taking up our space than is actually comfortable. It would be nice to be able to see through the bedroom windows! I’ve even.. shock horror… put aside a pile of books to take round to the nearby bookseller to see if I can convert them to cash.

float away

I’d love that, I thought. Total lack of sensory stimulus and a chance to relax completely for an hour in solitude.
My friend’s husband bought her a floatation tank experience for her birthday; this friend for whom silence and stillness are vacuums just waiting to be filled with busyness and doing rather than simply being. She was uncertain of how she’d like the darkness, the enclosedness (is that a word?), the silent stillness, the floating in nothingness. Me, I’d love it, I thought. And as the words slipped out, she decided that she’d found the one person to take with her on the “2 for 1” voucher.

I don’t suffer from claustrophobia – in fact, the thought of being enclosed in darkness was a pleasant one.

Did I love it?

In a word….

I didn’t hate it, I just couldn’t relax. In fact, even worse, I managed to relax for the last five minutes, from the moment the music began in order to signal “get ready to get out”. I liked the sensation of the warm water against my skin and the salts which have left my skin soft to the touch. I liked the darkness and the gentle music.

I did not like the sound of my breathing once the music stopped and the silence began. I started to question – is this the right pace for breathing? Why is my breath juddery on each exhalation? Is this normal? Does the air begin to seem just a little bit stale?

I did not like the sensation of the neck pillow supporting my head. Can I move it a bit? If I move it here, will it suddenly pop out from under my head and I get the water on my face, soemthing we were warned not to do? If I take it from under my neck, will it be any more comfortable? Will it float off somewhere where I can’t reach to retrieve it? Is it really sensible to balance it on my stomach? Is my neck supposed to ache like this? Ah, it is more comfortable if I put my hands at the back of my neck – more comfortable for my neck, that is. Goodness, though, it doesn’t half make my shoulders ache.

I did not like the way my thoughts continued to bombard my brain but without being able to gain a purchase and be resolved… a bit like those squelchy toys you throw against a mirror which sort of stick but then slither down and fall off onto the carpet where they pick up all the loose hairs and fluff. I didn’t go into a meditative state – I went into a teflon state, but still with the myriad of thought-directions sparking off inside my brain… together with a sense of guilt that I should be relaxing.

I did not like the way my stomach loomed high above the water level. I really must lose some weight this year!!!! More to the point, it was chilly. My back was warm, my front was decidedly not. I found myself wondering how far into the hour I was, whether I could sneak out of the tank and into the lovely hot shower which was waiting for me after my floatation experience – a ration of five minutes at the end of the session to wash off the salts.

Once the experience was nearly over – the air in the tank had warmed and I’d found a comfortable way of supporting my head, the music had begun and covered the sound of my breathing, suddenly I had a taste of just how relaxing it COULD be in there. Just in time to get out.

Would I do it again? Only if you’re paying!

Design Team Project Featuring Kaisercraft ....

Good Morning Everyone .... Gillian here with Octobers DT project featuring Kaisercraft products. I hope everyone is enjoying the barmy weather we seem to be experiencing of late ... maybe not so much for us peeps up north lol, anyway on with the project.

Material Used and all available to purchase from Snazzy's include:
Kaisercraft Filmstrip Frame (SB2108)
Kaisercraft Clear Stamps (Velvet Ensemble Collection - CS778)
Kaisercraft 12x12 Paper (Velvet Ensemble Collection)
Paris Trunk Ink Pad (Sprig)
Paper Soft - Colour (Light Moss Green)
Archival Ink Pad (Jet Black)
Tim Holtz Ornate Plate
Tim Holtz Muse Tokens
Tim Holtz Tissue Tape (Symphony)
Claudine Hellmuth Matte Medium
Ranger Glossy Accents
Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pad (Old Paper)

1. I started off by swiping the Paris Trunk Ink Pad directly over the frame until the desired coverage had been achieved. I then used a sponge applicator to apply the Paper Soft Moss Green to highlight areas of the frame.

2. Using Archival Ink I stamped sections of the frame using stamps from the above collection.

3. Take the inside section of the frame, cut a piece of cardstock from the above Paper Collection and adhere uisng Claudine Hellmuths Matte Medium. Cut further scraps from cardstock, again adhereing with Matte Medium and postion behind where the film strip cut outs are. I then adhered both sections of the frame together using Ranger Glossy Accents.

4. Next, I cut a further border strip from the Paper Collection and adhered along the top of the frame, I then cut a further border, this time the film strip and distressed with Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Old Paper), again adhereing with Matte Medium. Take a section of Tissue Tape and adhere along the top of the frame, again distressing with DI Old Paper.

5. I then secured two Ideaology Memo Pins to either side of the frame and attached a length of chain through, securing the Tim Holtz Muse Tokens using Jump Rings.

6. Attach Ornate Plate using Glossy Accents.

7. For the next embellishment I used cardstock from the Lost & Found Paper Stash and the Rosette Die from Tim Holtz Alterations line, securing a metal flower in the centre.

Well that's all from me for now, I will be back later on in the week with another peek using Kaisercraft Products. Thanks for looking!

Desktop Software

Sniki Wiki> About Sniki Wiki: Your Social Networking Wiki > Social Media > categories > Glossary > Desktop Software

Application software is a subclass of computer software that employs the capabilities of a computer directly and thoroughly to a task that the user wishes to perform. This should be contrasted with system software which is involved in integrating a computer's various capabilities, but typically does not directly apply them in the performance of tasks that benefit the user. In this context the term application refers to both the application software and its implementation.

A simple, if imperfect analogy in the world of hardware would be the relationship of an electric light bulb (an application) to an electric power generation plant (a system). The power plant merely generates electricity, not itself of any real use until harnessed to an application like the electric light that performs a service that benefits the user.

Typical examples of software applications are word processors, spreadsheets, and media players.

Multiple applications bundled together as a package are sometimes referred to as an application suite. Microsoft Office and, which bundle together a word processor, a spreadsheet, and several other discrete applications, are typical examples. The separate applications in a suite usually have a user interface that has some commonality making it easier for the user to learn and use each application. And often they may have some capability to interact with each other in ways beneficial to the user. For example, a spreadsheet might be able to be embedded in a word processor document even though it had been created in the separate spreadsheet application.

User-written software tailors systems to meet the user's specific needs. User-written software include spreadsheet templates, word processor macros, scientific simulations, graphics and animation scripts. Even email filters are a kind of user software. Users create this software themselves and often overlook how important it is.

In some types of embedded systems, the application software and the operating system software may be indistinguishable to the user, as in the case of software used to control a VCR, DVD player or Microwave Oven.
