Hastings looks hopefully toward the future with a dawning sense of the inevitability of all things NUMBER 5

You think you'll knock me off my feet 'til I'm flat on the floor
'Til my heart is cryin' Indian and I'm beggin for more
So come on baby
Come on baby show me what that loaded gun is for

"The Shoop Shoop Song"?

― Young Fresh Danny D (Dan Perry), Monday, 11 September 2006 18:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I see that the loop of that song is going to continue in my brain until I replace it with something ELSE.

Might I suggest "I'm Blue (Ba-da-bee-da)"?

Because I'm a dick.

THERE'S A LOT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT CHER, DAN.

For example, she's from Laos. Fun fact!

Sorry, John, Shellshock wins, and even if it didn't.
I constructed "Shaa-Shaa [Chinese Water Torture Mix]" which is the sound of Shellshock looping in my brain ntil it hurts.
So... I end up with THAT version compounding the effect, then disintegrating, leaving me with a void I must fill with music.

So John is now an expert on Cher? I have missed a few things in the past decade and a half or so...

Well, I'm now on my porch, with my mixer, a pencil pic w/windsceeen goosenecked at a Hummingbird Feeder, waiting for a bird.
I think I'm gonna hit record, take a bath and hope for the best while I'm in there.Alot of ambient noise.
Semi-distant radios, leaves, planes...

Ofuro or regular bath? Regular, I suppose.

(Ever since Japan, I dream of ofuro... if I ever build a house, I totally want one.)

On another topic, what are you all reading?

I just finished reading Heartburn by Nora Ephron (funny, and needed when one of your married couple friends separate).

I am just starting on re-reading Sula (Toni Morrison).

And I'm reading an anat. and phys. textbook and thinking that my brain cells have deteriorated mightily since college.

― Sara R-C (Sara R-C), Tuesday, 12 September 2006 20:09 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm reading game reviews and this thread.

I'd be reading subtitles, but I can't get tg4.tv to play properly. I WANT TO WATCH IRISH SOAPS! DUMB IDEA!!!

I'd read more, but going to a book store or talking to people that read lots of books is akin to going to Target to look for a CD, then asking recommendations from both the people at cheapo and the people at Guitar Center.

No it's not.

Talking to people who read lots of books is the thing that keeps me from wanting to leave the planet. If there's an afterlife, I'm going to be hugely disappointed if there is no library filled with the books I haven't quite gotten to. (Actually, in "heaven," shouldn't every book you pick up be fucking fantastic?)

I think I have every book suggestion list I've ever scribbled down (or forced someone else to scribble) in my garage in a box. I might never get to them (and god knows there are probably spiders in there now... ugh), but I can't part with them.

FB is reading...???

Your Disgusting Head: The Darkest, Most Offensive and Moist Secrets of Your Ears, Mouth and Nose by Dr. and Mr. Doris Haggis-On-Whey.

I was reading Great Apes by Will Self, but I left that in dude's car and haven't managed to get it back.

FB, I want you to know that I actually went to Amazon.com to confirm that you were not, in fact, making that title up.

― Sara R-C (Sara R-C), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 14:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, Great Apes is totally a real title.

Dan, if we never left high school, my brain would be working better than it is. I used to think I could learn organic chemistry through osmosis. Now I'm staring at the definition of osmosis and thinking, "hmmm... can I remember this for more than 30 seconds?"

I'm reading "The Know-it-all" by A.J. Jacobs (about his attempt to the entire Encyclopedia Brittanica), "Driving Mr. Albert" by Michael Paterniti (about driving cross-country w/Einsteins brain), and re-reading "Finley Wren" by Philip Wylie and "Infinite Jest".

Just finished "The Men Who Stare at Goats" by Jon? Ronson.

― John Justen, All Dude Dual Groom Swordfight Revue (johnjusten), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 14:57 (seventeen years ago) link

I've been curious about Infinite Jest ever since it came out; I bought it for my friend Curt and he seemed to enjoy it. Was it the footnotes that he enjoyed so much? I can't remember. (Fiction plus footnotes! That might be even better than my undying adoration of parentheses.)
