and to others too, of course.

Hmmm... he mischaracterises SA on how we viewed Zim's situation when it started going badly downhill, and an important destinction between Zim and SA is that in SA the white cultures (the Afrikaans and Enlgish speaking audiences) were large enough to have their own local music scenes, so I didn't grow up in the type of cultural vaccuum that he describes the whites being. But there's a lot that's similar.

But guys... Hugh Masekela... wow. And while your busy running out to buy The Emancipation of Hugh Masekela, get yourself some Abdullah Ibrahim as well, and you'll have a very good primer to SA jazz.

Why is this shit availabe through Amazon?

Man, I would so get that for my boyfriend for Valentine's Day, except it doesn't ship to California. Are any of you Nevada folks?

Shit, I wish my equipment was that cheap.

But then again, I'm able to smack ninjas about the head like the speed-fed bitches they are. I can do it with a viking axe or a cutlass if anybody wants to settle any bets.

You fuckin' rule, GI!

[Good Intentions]

Well, let's be fair, the techniques of the ninjas have been lost to history. The guys doing "ninjutsu" are basically making it up as they go along. Which makes them sad little losers. Whereas the stuff I study is not like that at all.

[elpollodiablo]

GI do you have a license plate that says "RENFAIR"?

[Good Intentions]

I don't have a car.

I also don't go to renfairs, or do 'living history' or re-enactment of any type.

[das kranke Tier]

He just kicks ass

[elpollodiablo]

How about a black t-shirt with an airbrushed wolf on it?

[Good Intentions]

No, but I've got one with an figure out of a Fechtbuch illustrated by Dürer on the back.

[elpollodiablo]

Canvas duster? Fedora? Pewter Gandalf?

[Good Intentions]

No, no, no.

I've got a Swiss army-surplus greatcoat, if that makes you feel better.

So the other day Danielle and I are sitting in the coffee shop talking, and there's this guy sitting in the corner, all in black, eyeliner, spiked collar, tats, and he's got his headphones up so loud that you can hear, through heavy distortion, whatever godawful shit he's listening to, and he's nodding his head really fiercely, staring at the wall, and every minute and a half or so he screams, literally screams at the top of his lungs, I WILL BURY YOU WITH CORPSES or I RAPE BABIES FOR THE BLOOD or THOU HAST SINNED AGAINST MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE or whatever, and everyone is rolling their eyes and staring really pointedly at this guy and eventually someone goes and stands right in front of him, like right in front of his face, and the guy doesn't even blink, just keeps staring and nodding, and the guy that made the stand leans in real close and screams TURN IT DOWN, and I look at Danielle and say, "I will never, ever get metal."

That dude is not metal. That dude is an attention whore. The eyeliner is a giveaway. If Dio had been there, he would *not* have approved.

So as of tonight, it turns out I am to be one of the two stars in my friend Charlie's film "Girls Playing Video Games" which was inspired by his watching myself and my friend Lori play Mario Bros.  Thus far, most of it consists of me calling the ducks in Duck Hunt bitches and telling Lori that watching her play Mario Bros. makes me nervous.  Oh, and also both of us frequently squealing in alarm.  
It's going to be entirely ridiculous, but probably pretty funny.  Apparently, Charlie thinks it will be art.

Really HOT ridiculous, funny art.

At any point, will the two of you be making out?

Well, so far as I know, the plan is just for us to be playing the video games, so unless there's a game that requires us to make out to play, no.

I dunno, will you be playing a Wii?

If Charlie brings us one to play.  I would like to.  I watched someone else play one, and it looked fun.

Does anybody know this guy Zak Smith? He did some art project making an illustration for each page of Gravitys Rainbow, and he also acts in porn movies under the name Zak Sabbath. I've never seen his art or his porn, but I read about him all the time on Fleshbot, which seems to worship him second only to Joanna Angel.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure I saw him in the Miami airport yesterday. Part of me wanted to kill him, part of me wanted to be him.

This reminds me:  The other night one of my roomies and a friend of ours were working on a script to a movie which will be a documentary about a fictitious underground Crossfire league.

Like that boardgame?

That's GOLD!

[El_Josharino]

Yep, the boardgame.  I think I'm going to end up being a parent of a main character who has gotten REALLY into the Crossfire scene.

[das kranke Tier]

Sounds awesome
