Zelmo: we should have gone to the Cowboy Junkies last night. Tole ya so.
The Drams tonight. Bet we won't see ya there, even though it's like up the block from your house.
Rundgren on 1/23?
Musical random smackdown for the Rude dude, Giuliani the Whoremaster. Want to see a Liar and a Cheat, Nick, take a deep, long look at this Republican Party standard Bearer for the New Century. Not only adulterous, but Im sure he went beyond just oral sex games; also I'll lay good money that in addition to using City funds and City resources to abet his dalliance, he used City property to get his skeevy ass laid.
If Clinton qualifies as a Liar and a Cheat; the Republican Party is being held by pimps, thieves, looters, pedophiles, con artists, hucksters, lunatics, and perverts, without a redeeming quality in the bunch. I take that back - at least McCain served his country. That's one.
The only downside to seeing Giuliani flame out now is that we wouldn't get to see his spectacular defeat next fall.
Bah. Stand down already you egotistical liar.
Go read Driftglass; another goody today, and he always posts some Tom Waits on a Friday.
1. Prophet 15 from the album "Life On Other Planets" by Supergrass
2. The Busy Girl Buys Beauty from the album "Back to Basics" by Billy Bragg I saw him on Henry Rollins show last night, doing "Waiting For The Great Leap Forward" with updated lyrics. Brilliant, just brilliant.
3. Something's Gotta Give from the album "Tenement Year" by Pere Ubu
4. Chilling Excerpts from the album "Tales Of Great Neck Glory" by Sammy track from a fantastic two man NY group, that only released two albums; this is the better by a neck. Sounds of the Velvets, Galaxie 500, a touch of Thurston Moore.... a quintessentially New York sound; this song always reminds me of my brother.
5. Hot, Blue And Righteous from the album "Six Pack (Disc 2) [Tres Hombres & Fandango]" by ZZ Top Sacrilege, I know, but this isn't one of their better.
6. Girlfriend from the album "Stoned And Dethroned" by The Jesus & Mary Chain
7. June 16th from the album "Double Nickels on the Dime" by Minutemen
8. Excuse The Lame Excuse from the album "For EP Fans Only" by The Figgs to quote Z: "FIGGS!"
9. This Is Your Land from the album "Street Fighting Years" by Simple Minds
10. Over Your Shoulder from the album "Crystal Days (1979-1999) (Disc 3)" by Echo & The Bunnymen
bonus 11: Long Day from the album "Say What You Will, Clarence...Karl Sold the Truck" by Soul Asylum One of the best album titles ever.
[EDIT] cranked up the Billy Bragg at lunch here, and his 2003 song "The Price of Oil" came up. It's just as relevant now, maybe more so. Go download it here for free (cuz Billy's a Socialist) along with Must I Paint You A Picture? and Take Down The Union Jack.
Don't you mean Driving the Last Spike?
ReplyDeleteYeah, I developed a rash during that Packer game. But who knew Aaron Rogers could throw?
Nope, That's a Cowboy Junkies song. Drive nuthin'
ReplyDeleteOT, wasn't it just a matter of time before all that "Democrats are Traitors" talk would drive some loose cannon into a terrorist act?
Driving the Last Spike-- great song. Don't know the Cowboy Junkies, so I can't comment.
ReplyDeleteBP-- If Giulaini wins the nomination I will almost certainly vote democrat. But you really need to get rid of the "If" at the start of the sentence, "If Clinton qualifies as a Liar and a Cheat...." Clinton qualifies as both of those things. The fact that many Republicans are worse hardly absolves Bill of his transgressions.
As to redeeming qualities... well, if Ron Paul d/n win the Republican nomination, then I'm in the Romney camp on the Republican side. I'm still firmly in the Obama camp on the Democrat side.
November is so last month, BP. How about a rousing post for December??
ReplyDeleteDon't you have some cookies to judge, BBB?
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll send some brownies....
No cookies, yet... Instead, I'm procrastinating from other duties or am hoping to find new blog posts which will help me to procrastinate.
ReplyDeleteSince there are none here... I guess it's back to work.
BP- I think you need to be guest instructor at my class tomorrow. I think they need a BP attitude adjustment.
I am totally there.
ReplyDeleteNo new post because I have work I cannot shirk.
Be there are noon, BP. Sooner if possible. There is usually a posse of them waiting for me at 11:30...
ReplyDeletefuck... you know I meant "at" noon.
ReplyDeleteYour blog makes peopel messs oop just so yu can feeel beetr.
