"I need some packing materials."
"What for?"
"To pack."
"To pack what?"
"Some things."
"What kind of things?"
"Zorak things."
Allergy season made the news last night. They mentioned how if you're an allergy sufferer you might notice your symptoms getting gradually worse over the next few days. Notes on this:
-
Slow news day, eh?
-
They're a little late.
-
Gradually, my ass.
Saturday morning I felt like I'd been hit by a truck. My nose dripped all weekend. Bleah.
Anyway, this morning's soundtrack:
-
Chemical Brothers, Block Rockin' Beats
-
Chemical Brothers, Dig Your Own Hole
-
Chemical Brothers, Elektrobank
(the above three are the first three tracks on the Dig Your Own Hole CD)
-
Handsome Boy Modeling School, Rock 'n' Roll (Could Never Hip Hop Like This) (twice)
Play the above very loud. The last one has been an earworm since I heard it in a couple commercials lately (I think one of them was an NFL promo, but I wasn't paying that much attention). Advertisers seem to like certain albums I own a whole lot:
-
The Dockers people use several tracks off Thievery Corporation's DJ Kicks CD
-
Moby, Play is everywhere (almost every ad for a FOX television show, it seems, plus they used the last track twice in the X-Files ep they reran last week, which isn't exactly an advertisement but is close enough)
-
The VW Cabrio ad is Pink Moon by Nick Drake, which I don't yet own but the box set is tops on my list.
Oh, and if any of you remember and care, the theme music from the show "IRS The Cutting Edge" on way old MTV was
Theme for Kinetic Ritual, by Klark Kent, who was Stewart Copeland in disguise. My sister had the 10 inch EP, which she later sold without asking me if I wanted it. I did later get the IRS CD of Klark Kent's
Kollected Works so I guess all is not lost.
Anyway, I need to go get some packing materials. I have a defective thing to send back to somebody.
