take out the awful guitar and this is fine i guess it seems like a demo for mini korg and unimaginative
drone
foodpyramid-live


this is perfect.. if you can't get the bootleg of miles with jarrett

miles montreaux 1973

fripp

fripp mix

wtf kind of dance move is run at each other pushing air?

80s randomness o n j WTF

also check out the swish on the dude she jumps down to dance with ending..
also the other undercover brothers dancing earlier... 
also the reluctance i feel about onjs suggestion

so given the boniness of her emaciated deathcamp body, the only thing to make a move on is her enormous mullet hair or her eyes...

spring cleaning / flan creation

heavier doughnut freezing over beggars

i'm visiting white castle today. NOT REALLY
it is my favorite way to cleanse my intestines by introducing what could be the perfect mixture of bacteria so as to induce a more fluid excretion from below.
step 1. visit white castle.
step 2. purchase 4 sliders
step 3. return to a private facility with a bathroom
step 4. insure availability of facility
step 5. consume and wait awhile for the filth to work its magic.
in an unrelated story on flan it turns out a polish emigre from france did in fact discover flan in 1947 while doing research retrieving a gelatinous substance from monkey anuses and growing that in a culture  for a week... then chilling it and serving with caramel    gooey

update: do not eat the fish at the tin fish

soviet commercials

 soviet commercials.and films  {check out "Sputnik 403" cassette recorder (1976)!}
then some footage of "a tribe called quest"
set to another retro hip-hop mix (theres a few seconds of a sampled perc organ that are tasty, the rest i can't use, the rhodes sample isn't that good, the rapping is like old old school.)
 : soviet commercials

going nuts with a casio and namco arcade samples..

Bennetons Unauthorized Use of Obamas Image

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2011/11/obama-hu-jintao-kissing-ad-draws-wh-scorn/

Use of Obamas image not approved in this photo in which he appears to lock lips with hu jintao. FAKE

Spanish Prime Minister's Daughters Are Normal

can hollywood accept that these girls are not unlike many younger teen girls? if anything they are normal. TO the 12 year olds in the hollywood press, they are the addams family..
can we just grow up and see the awkwardness of being next to the president of the u s 
(and wife) with your parents the pm of spain???? maybe it is refreshing to see a younger girl that is not paris hilton????  it seems to capture a moment of refreshing honesty... except in the adults...

the most arrogant burger royalty

new food reviews dept. / smoothie launch


in what is surely tantamount to the cold war space race, bk has one upped m d
in the race...


there is a smoothie at burger king and surprisingly it is an actual fresh fruit smoothie?????!!!
this is delicious and goes against the grain of fast food!! also at other less technically advanced bks
it is not available... "fresh" frozen i guess... the huge chunks of ice were surprising also...

are its days numbered or will it propel this establishment past mickey dee for conquest of taste buds?

the new salads at bk employ fresh cut veggies. as much as i want to eat them i cannot erase the image of the 7th st bks BROWN lettuce. so this is un-reviewed

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

"BEGINNING TO SEE THE LIGHT" - Ellington/James

i'm more of a fan of the voice choices this organist made for the verses than the chorus/bridge you can't get a saxophone sound artificially but the verse is amazing...



i can't find the version of  i have on vinyl so... that randomly happened, not what we sought, yet it led us to a whole slew of prewar pop this morning

 since i was originally searching for louis...i found bix and bernie

taking the great opportunity to finally hear some old bix sides generously provided for us on toob
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQnW8C8HeQs&feature=related

and some tunes i found from bernie to get us going on a cold grey morn

"cookin breakfast 4 the 1 i lu"

GET OUT OF THE PAST

An Open Letter To The Tea Party



hey,
 big oil and wall street, you completely wrecked the ecosystem of the planet... you gave my cash to the fat cats again and best of all you created a future in which we are enslaved to the thing that is ensuring our destruction...

-in the "battle of the generations" yours is "the greatest" good job again.

-thanks for your insane paranoia over things that did not matter (red or not, black or white)    and    your extremely childish behavior in dealing with these problems (cold war, racism) 
- thanks for the whole nuclear mutual assured destruction  strategy... really  good job
-thanks for  killing democracy by giving a voice only to those with money
-thanks a whole lot for helping wall street and leaving us nothing


despite all of the above, in the interest of fairness, 
look at obama and wall street. 


judging by Obama's Wall Street friendly policies, it is too late.

the record of what mccain and every other gop candidate has received in billions of dollars in campaign funds from wall street is right here http://www.opensecrets.org/



basically there is what the financial services industry wants, and there is the rest of us

so in closing 
please president obama
do SOMETHING,
 let wall street know..
days when we were dumb enough to believe in "trickle down".and
days when we believed in "free markets" ala enron are over
please do not tell us you are helping the working and middle class 
when your white house is filled with lobbyists and goldman sachs execs


the facts are that since they conned us into letting out their leash they will destroy the entire planet for a buck

second post worst than the first

welcome 2 the second post you can always read the first one again
