"Solutions are not the answer"- Dan Quayle
Category: Dreams and the Supernatural
Wah.
Theinsight of US leadership is truely awesome, frighteningly so. I wouldnever imagined Obersturmgruppenfuhrer Quayle to be a man of such pureZen intelligence. What does it all mean? .
I don't know, but asHarold Pinter observed in his laser-like Nobel prize analysis of USdictatorship, America plays a 'brilliant, even witty' game of worlddomination. The term 'witty' ties in with my theory of 'HilariousDictators'...our rulers don't -as we comfortably may assume- lackhumour, but are in fact great comdians, directing the global tragedywith enormous enjoyment of the surreality of suffering...the huge jokethat we are all just too fucking stupid to actually wise up to thereality of control , let alone change it, is not lost on them. They are, quite literally 'having a laugh'. We- that is the seemingly tiny % ofthe population awake enough to understand a little of the true natureof the performance - are in some sense their audience. This is a sickscenario and needs to be reversed. Are you in? out? in?out ? WORSE:what if the hokey cokey actually IS what its all about ?
The whole Pinter piece is available here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GY2Z27Y-HJE
actually lets have it right HERE
now i'm getting a little more fluent with all this .
This is , imho, essential viewing esp. the 2nd half where he warms to his theme.
Tooill to fly to Stockholm to accept his award, Pinter delivers the full45 min speech from his wheelchair, upright , without notes, and withouta single hesitation or um or ur. Even makes me feel somewhat proud tobe English, white and middle class...a rare feeling to be sure. Atleast one of our number can deliver a good punch straight to Babylonhead from time to time.
OK, so its not new. Well , its news to me. Inspiring. Thanks to Raj Pannu, Coldcuts live scratch DJ, for turning me on to that.
Well, this is quite good fun. For me, anyway. How are yall doing? read this far?
Expectmusic playlist here to change. Some Coldcut old gold ('Goldcut' toanticipate our greatest hits album if there ever is one) , And why notsome random good tuneage from time to time? Once more, Raj turned meonto 'All day Breakfast' by Anticon's Jel. Am uploading this now.Flipping love this track...that stab is so nextfat. (nextfat is a next,fat phrase, innit?).
Lets pack one more in. Friend and VJMinusbaby is a reader of this blog and sent me this clip which is lushenough to share. Thanks mate!
Loving that. Heh, maybe it could learn to scratch.Actually, my cat Monty could scratch...just not records, more my legs,though it did get on the decks from time to time.
Time for din dins.
Saw Stella today , on the way back from Goa. Sweetheart! BOOM! Missing you.
