Piccie!

Spoz changed the look of his blog over the weekend. I wish I could do something like that... maybe later in the week when I have more time / patience / energy. No, I'm not an HTML expert.. however, my friend Cerowyn did link me to an HTML color page a while ago. He won't be able to read this, but I thank him nonetheless. (thank goodness that was still in the drop-down cache list on my address bar!)

Just for laughs, I'll include these:



(I wish I'd known how to post up pictures / save them to the computer drive when he had a picture of himself under the influence after nine Cooper's Pale Ales.. that would have been cool. Looked kinda creepy, but not too bad actually.)

His current playlist of 300 Winamp songs.. it changes regularly.


Watching a bit of the Grammy Awards now, too.. although RQ has spoiled some (?) of it for me. Eh well, still good for a lark. :)

Alan Cross: Greatest Moments in Rock History #60-51

Moments 60-51

There are such things as the chaos theory and the butterfly effect: tiny changes set up larger ones; it's impossible to predict the future with any degree of certainty, as you can't predict everything that'll have a bearing on an event's outcome.


60. Legs McNeill and a friend liked the Dictators so much that they started a fanzine. The original title was Teenage News, after a New York Dolls song. But then they noticed the cover of the Dictators' Girl Go Crazy album, which featured the band sitting around in leather jackets and looking generally "punk."

The magazine's title was changed to Punk... pretty soon, anyone who appeared in the magazine was referred to as a "punk" / played "punk music." It was hard, fast, primeval rock.. and the magazine was a big hit amongst the music set in those days.


59. Dec. 17, 1977: the Sex Pistols couldn't play for Saturday Night Live because they had problems with immigration and customs. So the producers of the show were forced to hire a band called Elvis Costello and the Attractions. Their hit song at the time was called Radio Radio, but the producers said they couldn't play it because NBC owned a lot of radio stations... they couldn't take the chance of appearing to bash the parent network.

Elvis Costello said they'd play a song called Less Than Zero instead.. but after playing the first few notes of the song, he apologized to the audience and ripped into Radio Radio instead.


58. The Clash was so socialist that they appeared to be almost Communist. But Jan. 26, 1977 rolled around. They signed a 100,000-pound record deal with CBS.. that immediately marked them as sell-outs, even though they did end up achieving their stated goal of "corrupting the industry from within." Even though the Sex Pistols had ironically gouged multiple record labels, the Clash's act was seen as more out-there.. perhaps because of their stated views on things.


57. June 4, 1976: The Sex Pistols' first gig.. the cost was only 50 pence, yet less than 50 people showed up. Members of several bands were in the audience, including New Order. You can see it in the film of the Manchester music scene, 24-Hour Party People.


56. Jan. 14, 1978: The Sex Pistols' last gig with Sid Vicious at the helm. Everybody hated each other at this point.. the audiences were hostile, manager Malcolm McLaren was a pain, Sid Vicious was always wasted and needed protection from his own bodyguard, etc. This was a band ready to blow apart literally within hours, and Johnny Rotten had a good idea of who was getting robbed: basically everyone. Their last gig was at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco.


55. Malcolm McLaren (the aforementioned Sex Pistols manager) and Vivienne Westwood had set up a store called Let It Go. The store sold adult toys and clothing for "teddy boys." They were in New York for a business trip when McLaren decided to check out the legendary club CBGB's. He met Richard Hell of the bands Television and the Heartbreakers. (not the same as Tom Petty's Heartbreakers, I think)

Hell was wearing clothing attached with safety pins because he was so poor, yet McLaren was so taken with this "sense of style" that he took the idea back to England. The store was renamed Sex, and now sold clothing that was held together with items such as safety pins.. that was a big hit among people who went there.


54. Jan. 21, 1989 marked the beginnings of one of the most infamous couples in the history of rock and roll. Kurt Cobain of Nirvana met Courtney Love of Hole at a Nirvana gig in Portland, Oregon. He told a friend that she looked like Nancy Spungen, Sid Vicious' girlfriend who may or may not have died at Sid's hands. Courtney was friends with Jennifer Finch of the band L7, who was a former girlfriend of Dave Grohl. She told Dave that she liked Kurt, and sent him some seashells. In May 1991, they met again at a Butthole Surfers gig. They shared drugs and beer, and struck up an instant friendship.... especially when she punched him in the stomach.


53. In September 1990, Dave Grohl was in a band called Scream. They were on tour, but the bass player had girlfriend problems and had to bail out. Dave wanted to be in another band, so talked to his buddy Buzz Osborne about it. Buzz said that his buddy Kurt Cobain had a band that was experiencing drummer problems, so encouraged Dave to audition.

On Sept. 25, Dave auditioned and got the gig instantly. His first gig with Nirvana was Oct. 11, 1990. That was the beginning of the biggest rock band of the 90's.


52. Nov. 10, 1994: the first-ever professional Internet-only concert was performed on this date, by a Seattle band called Sky Cries Mary. Before then, the only Net concerts had been played by nerds for nerds. The Sky Cries Mary concert was wonky and glitchy, but still a concert technologically. Streaming and audio are common things nowadays, but not then.


51. Mar. 20, 1990: A record store on Hacienda Blvd. in Los Angeles called Warehouse invited Depeche Mode to come and sign autographs. By 9 that night, there were so many people in the record store that the glass of the windows was bending. Traffic had to be stopped around that area. There were 25,000-30,000 people in the parking lot alone at that time, and only 30 security guards to maintain some semblance of order among them.

At 10, Depeche Mode was around.. but the announcement was made that the autograph session had to be cancelled due to the sheer number of people around. When people heard this, they got angry and started a full-scale riot. The LAPD was called in, 7 people were sent to hospital, and the record store was hit with a $25,000 repair bill.

Earth Dragon
You are the Earth Dragon. It is your sole thought to protect and nurture those close to you. There is a danger, however, in your selfless nature. As all trod upon the earth, you allow others to tread upon you. In your desire to protect others, you often forget to shield yourself from those who would take advantage of your giving spirit. Be not afraid to share your love with others, but be mindful of the intentions of those you help. Your greatest gift is the love you have to share and the lack of cynicism in your heart. However, this may also be your greatest downfall.

I cannot escape them
No matter how I try
They wait for me everywhere
I cannot pass them by.

Driving down the street
I see "Jesus Is Lord"
And then immediately after
I hear the word "FNORD!"

Innocuous sayings and parables
And on the evening news
I hear the word "FNORD!"
And suddenly I'm confused

I sit alone in my room
And I'm feeling rather bored
I turn on the tube and guess what
I hear the word "FNORD!"

"Don't see the fnords and they won't eat you"
That's what I've heard the wisemen say
But I can't get away from those beasties
There's just no f*cking way.


I believe I found these on alt.discordia

Invisibility rant / Quizzes

I *hate* it when I'm apparently invisible to others on my lists..
Sarah Moore and Snoopy were the offenders today..
Steve Wright was an offender a couple of weeks ago..
if you're busy or whatnot, you can tell me or indicate it..
just give me a damn answer.. it's not that difficult, is it? :P
thank goodness that Corey remembered to turn on AIM..
definitely appreciate my true friends and biggest fans!
(I'd count Stephen and Jim in that number, as well as others)

Hiccup cures...

No, I did not go and eat all that food.. although I might go out again and try it now. Only 2.5 hours before the mall closes... :D


Here are various cures and remedies for hiccups that I found in my copy of A Millennium Primer from the Old Farmer's Almanac: Timeless Truths and Delightful Diversions... enjoy! :D

"The hickot is cured with sudden feare or strange newes." (1584)
"Sneezing doth cease the Hiccough." (Francis Bacon, 1626)
"You must (in the very instant that the Hickup seizes the Party) pull his Ring-Finger, and it will go off." (1727)
Cover your head with a pillow.
Spit on a rock, then turn it over.
Hold your breath and stick out your tongue.
Pant like a dog.
Bite your thumbs and blow hard against them for a minute.
Drink a glass of water with a pencil in your mouth.
Eat a spoonful of peanut butter.
Eat a spoonful of sugar.
Eat a spoonful of salt.
Eat a spoonful of vinegar.
Eat a spoonful of Worcestershire sauce.
Eat a spoonful of crushed ice.
Drink nine swallows of water from your grandfather's cup without taking a breath.
Drink water through a folded handkerchief.
Drink from the wrong side of a cup.
Drink water while holding your ears and nostrils closed.
Take a mouthful of water and swallow it in three gulps. Repeat this three times while standing perfectly still, and breathing through your nose.
Breathe into a paper bag.
Stand on your head for 5 minutes.
Stand on your head and drink a glass of water.
Lay over a chair on your stomach and drink a glass of water.
Put the head of a burnt match into your ear.
Place a matchstick on top of your head and count to nine.
In a baby, place two broom straws in the baby's hair.
Lay a broom on the floor (bristles to the right) and jump over it seven times.
Lay a broom on the floor and jump over it three times. Walk around it once, then leave it where it lies.
Hold your left elbow for 7 minutes.
Hold a dime against the roof of your mouth for 30 minutes.
Wet a piece of red thread with your tongue, stick it to your forehead, and look at it.
Accuse the victim of something he has not done.
Turn your pockets inside out.
Stand nose-to-nose with the victim and stare at him.
Tighten a belt around your chest.
Stick your head under water and count to 25.
Place a wastebasket on your head, and have somebody beat on it.
Say, "Nine sups from a cup cures the hiccups" three times without taking a breath.
Say, "Hiccups, hiccups, stand straight up; three sups in a cup are good for the hiccups" three times without breathing.
Stand in the middle of the road and say, "Hiccup, stickup, not for me; hiccup, stickup." (note: keep an eye on the traffic while doing so, or the cure is likely to be permanent)

Food plans

it seems as though I have a vast food agenda for today..
the monthly tradition of the BP Pasta Tuesday special..
hot and sour soup, bubble tea, pancakes at Ricky's..
(I see nothing wrong with stealing the Mardi Gras tradish ;) )
and maybe a 7-11 Slurpee, though I might leave it for Friday..
yes, I sound like a pig... but comfort food is a good thing!
besides, I will definitely need a break from certain people :P

Collect phone call from Toronto

Candy had left me a message at the Our Place forum about calling her collect a few days ago. I didn't really want to do this at my parents' house.. yes, even though she'd be paying for most of the call. Instead, I did it earlier tonight.. it was very fun. :D


What we discussed, in point form so you don't run screaming at an extreme run-on sentence otherwise:

* the weather

* family stuff (she understands where I'm coming from in regards to my mother)

* Chinese food / cooking (she once worked in a Chinese restaurant and had great beer)

* painting / renovating / gardening / moving (she has lots of home projects she wants to do: moving rosebushes, gardening in general, and improving her pool patio)

* descriptions of what was in her package which isn't here yet (her husband sent it by ground, not air.. it would take 3-4 weeks, and I believe this is the fourth week) (Ministry CDs which she burned for me, a note from her, an organizer that one of her stepkids didn't want, and some other stuff)

* Toronto stuff (my parents are going to Mississauga in May, and wanted me to go with them... I'll have to think about that one!)

* jokes (between herself and Viper, herself and her husband, etc.)

* explicit language warnings (she warned me NOT to listen to the Ministry CDs in the presence of my mom, like I would.. "don't add more fuel to the fire," as she put it)

* people thinking of me (she and Nutty have discussed getting me a newer computer.. if she could afford it, she'd send one over)

* forum stuff (various topics she'd seen, pinning my New Rock History topic, deletions, smileys [she posts hilarious ones], etc.)

* the insane amounts of snow in Nova Scotia (three feet and counting... whoa, that's some snow dump there!)

* truck driving (she used to drive a truck, and told me about her accident)

* getting rid of stuff (she donates a bunch of stuff every year to the Legion)

* music (she definitely doesn't like new country music, but she likes the older pioneer stuff.. she loves metal music, and knows I listen to all kinds of music ---> to a point)

* her stepkids (one of them is moving in later.. both of them have a fractious relationship with her, though it's getting sorta better in spots)

* restaurants and food (beef and broccoli at Chinese restaurants, hot and sour soup, her not being able to tolerate much spicy stuff because of heartburn; her liking exotic food and sauces, while her husband prefers the meat-and-potatoes diet of the typical American or Canadian)

* life and more topics (pretty general stuff, but it works as filler :P)


That was an antidote to the stuff I'd been getting earlier.. woohoo! Definitely appreciated it a lot. Tomorrow: hot and sour soup, and / or the Pasta Tuesday BP special, plus maybe some possible retail therapy. I will take a break from all this stuff here! If Mom doesn't like it, then she can bloody well sod off and go! At least I know that my true friends and fans will be there for me to give me hugs or other comfort, and I love them for it.
