Good, I agree, now answer MY question.

Yeah, there was also a tie in with that magic number 56 too. I'm quite baffled.

Nicfit, I think the Lisbon shirt is old. I don't quite like either of them though.

As I write, Sonic Youth is performing at McCarren Pool. I’m not taping it, I’m not attending it. I’ve deleted my post from June promoting their album and providing a link where multiple nyctaper readers have already purchased copies of the new Daydream Nation CD. Sonic Youth can take their regurgitation of their 20-years-ago heyday and shove it up their ass.
I had an email which had been cc’d to Lee Ranaldo the guitarist. I was told to speak to Lee or soundman Aaron Mullan if there was any problem with entry. It was all supposed to be nice and simple. Only it wasn’t. The guard stopped me at the door, as well he should, and when I showed the email, he was nice enough to radio to security to get my clearance. Twenty-five minutes later, after multiple radio calls, I was told that neither Lee nor Aaron knew anything about taping and that the answer on taping was “no”.
Apologies to all the readers who have anxiously awaited my recording of this concert. When a band specifically allows taping in the past, grants specific permission in email, and ultimately leaves me standing at the gate denied entry, I’m left to consider whether its really worth expending any more time, money, and energy purchasing their product, buying tickets to their concerts, and promoting the performances through sharing my recordings. Given the way I was jerked around tonight, the answer with Sonic Youth is the same answer I received at the gate–”no”.
A band that could give a crap about their fans really shouldn’t get support from anyone. Don’t buy Sonic Youth CDs, don’t buy tickets to their concerts, and don’t give them any attention whatsoever. They’re tired old hacks anyway. 1988 is over.

What a dick. He seems to have delusions of grandeur, to judge by his posts on his site. Clearly thinks he is some kind of a rock star because he is a taper with a website.

Serves ya right, you should not watch Inland Empire at 8:30 pm.

my dad has to have one of his kidneys removed and not knowing if the other will function correctly once the other has come out he may need a transplant meaning i might have to donate one of mine being a family member and i likely match etc. his other organs are also failing quite a lot, massive shutdown infact.

why are parents so inconsiderate? cunts.

Damn, jon boy, hope everything will be ok... Parents are just humans, they/we all make mistakes. Problem is, often other people have to suffer the consequences of our errors. that said, which is quite retorical, here's a contribution to the usual thread's mood:

I feel a bit like a dork posting this right after your post...

I CAN'T BEAT MY COMPUTER AT CHESSSSSSS TOOOO HARDDDDDDD, arrrrrrrrrggghhhhhhh

my next door neighbor thinks:

1) we should hold a prayer circle around my tree involving all the neighbors (maybe THE GIANT FUCKING CRACK will go away).

2) somebody bad nearby MUST be the cause of the tree's decline (negative energy destroys them). I blame the wife.

3) we should place a sign in front of the tree telling everyone that the tree is about to be cut down (so they know that WE are not the bad people to blame).

oh, my achin' brain.

Homeownership is really annoying a lot of the time.

i need to pee

my computer is fucking up
i have to eat dinner at my boyfriends mom's house and i hate the very fiber of her being

(this is mostly me bitching about today which is relevant to nothing i can think of)

You've had a day's notice that you have to go to work dressed as a cowboy or indian? That's a bit harsh.

Pet camel given as gift kills Australian woman
Updated: 5:03 p.m. ET Aug. 19, 2007

BRISBANE, Australia - An Australian woman was killed by a pet camel given to her as a 60th birthday present, police said Sunday.
The woman, whose name has not been released, was killed Saturday at her family sheep and cattle ranch near Mitchell, 350 miles west of the Queensland state capital Brisbane, state police Detective Senior Constable Craig Gregory said.

The 10-month-old male — weighing about 330 pounds — had knocked her to the ground then lay on top of her in what police suspect was mating behavior, Gregory said.

Camel expert Chris Hill agreed with Gregory.
Hill, who has offered camel rides to tourists for 20 years, said young camels are not aggressive but can be dangerous if treated as pets without discipline.
The woman was given the hand-reared camel in March as a birthday present from her husband and daughter.
The fate of the camel is not known.
An autopsy of the woman will determine the precise cause of death within days.

Woman hears voices with a speech impediment

* 20 August 2007
* NewScientist.com news service

A Swiss woman who fell off her bicycle has yielded a unique insight into how auditory hallucinations are generated.

The woman suffered damage to the part of the brain where speech is generated and could speak only in short, stunted words and sentences. Five months later, when she suddenly developed epilepsy, she began "hearing" voices with the same speech impediments as herself.

"She initially heard her own voice speaking aloud, then the voices of hospital staff," says Daniela Hubl at the University Hospital of Psychiatry in Bern, Switzerland, a member of the team that treated her. "They had the same speech impediments as she did. It proves that the voices were generated in the language areas of the patient's own brain." The hallucinations disappeared when the woman received drugs to control her epilepsy (The Lancet, vol 370, p 538).

Hubl believes the case is unique and supports more strongly than ever the scientific consensus that "voices" and other hallucinations experienced by people with conditions like schizophrenia are generated within their own brains.
