My friend Elzbieta just returned to work after vacationing in her beloved Krakow, brought me back, as she always does, authentic Polish ogorki! Put your favorite orogki on pizza, zoom.
OK, I think the re-wallpapering is done here until next time, and LOOK!
Theme Song is back!
I need give credit to my free blogging platform, they seem to have fixed what ailed it. Jinx.
New Kim Gordon song?
- Though the blogrolls now self-update again, they only self-update when people post, and Blegsylvania long slow death continues....
- Is this Dog?
- Politics worthy of the American people.
- The Tarzie Snowden Reader.
- Pipeline Injustice.
- Pneumonia virus terrified after remembering what Clintons capable of.
- Hillary Clinton and the Church of the Sacred Fed.
- JK Rowling and the Cauldron of Discourse.
- Flashover.
- The Maah Daah Hey Trail (a) reminds me I'm old and haven't been on a bike in decades and never rode like this anyway (b) looks a hoot and (c) reminds me I want to see western North and South Dakota.
- Ed's Gravity's Rainbow again!
- Riot police in North Dakota.
- WFMU just toggled to it's long schedule, two DJs I dig are off the schedule, two DJs that I dig are now on the schedule.
- Which reminds me: I have not heard from the radio station what day/hours my show will be. I already know what the first song on my first show will be.
- Songs first show? This, the best Yes song ever as first set closer, MAYBE as permanent first set closer.
- Best Yes song some convinced DJ disqualifying.
- Jack Rose.
- Wouldn't do the Feldman below the poem, but I'm listening to it as I type this.
- Certain gimmick for show? Somewhere in 180 minutes of a three hour show, every show, will be this one minute:
RADIO
Frank O'Hara
Why do you play such dreary music
on a Saturday afternoon, when tired
mortally tired I long for a little
reminder of immortal energy?
All
week long when I trudge fatiguingly
from desk to desk in the museum
you spill your miracles of Grieg
and Honegger on shut-ins.
Am I not
shut in too, and after a week
of work don't I deserve Prokofiev?
Well, I have my beautiful de Kooning
to aspire to. I think it has an orange
bed in it, more than an ear can hold.
frank o'hara's poem complaining about the music the radio plays - these days he'd have much more control with pandora.com - i go to the website on my laptop and have the app on my ipod touch - i'm a satisfied product
ReplyDelete(i would have said "satisfied customer" if i paid them money, but instead i listen for free and they get their money from advertisers, so instead of them selling me music,they sell my attention)
Nice O'Hara, reminding.
ReplyDeleteYou need to come up with your bumper music, as well. Leads into and out of each set. Very important!
ReplyDelete"Blegsylvania long slow death": Yawn. tl;dr
And, whew! Blooger pulled that one out by the skin of its teeth. It was looking like another platform there for a moment there. I know they're relieved.
I think it was my calling Google and demanding to speak to Mr Blooger himself that got them moving.
DeleteI haven't started to consider bed music when I back-announce the set. No need getting ahead of myself.
