I've been undergoing a mental strangeness lately. Bear with me, like all internal weirdness, this is a minor thing to any in the outside world. Nothing extreme--like, hearing voices or believing that i was kidnapped by aliens and examined...it is just that lately i have had this creepy feeling that i am being judged by everyone around me...especially in public? I mean this feeling is fairly intense...and strangely consistent..I admit that i have suffered from this circumstance before but not to this level of intensity...I am chalking this up to the fact that i am growing my hair out and i look alot like Doc Brown in back to the future. It is true that a 56 year old guy who's attempting to grow hair long enough to put in a pony tail is unusual in this day and age...now i do have a full head of gray hair...i'm really, really wanting -----my hair looking strange right now to be the reason i've been feeling like this. Cause if it's not, i am stranger than i think i am---I can convince myself of this----maybe-----but it has been really, really weird time.
I got my Leningrad Cowboys cd 'Happy together' yesterday..I was painting today playing these guys (along with their backup singers, the Soviet Army Choir) and the entire Cd is simply excellent.... I found myself singing, dancing while painting---i believe that one has not truly lived until you've heard the Leningrad cowboys and the Soviet Army Choir doing--dancing in the streets---or the best cover version of tom jones's deliha in existence....amazing. So I of course immediately tried to order another of their CD's of one of their live concerts...and one of their movie posters for the nerd cave. The Leningrad Cowboys is now the central black hole of my musical universe right now--

Now why has this not been done--this would be the perfect work station--well especially for someone like me who has a set of social skills comparable to that of the unibomber...a cubicle hooch with semi-walls and a roof--..it even has skylight kinda things. What i really like is the way you can roll your chair in and out through the half-door..however like what's the social process to contact someone in there? Knock on the little half door? Trying to gain entry would cause a moment's---well--- vapor lock--the photo on the left is of the interior, very peaceful, you could actually get fooled into doing some work for a change...

The link below takes you to a very well written blog which describes Hilary Clinton as "the psycho girlfriend of the democratic party" as in she won't go away and leave us alone---she keeps calling and calling and showing up at odd hours, and calling---that strange, but perfect, parallel alone deserves a look... http://wilwheaton.typepad.com/wwdnbackup/2008/05/hillary-clinton.html
This is interesting--the next time airline pilots give you that 'we are ultimate professionals with nice grey hair and big watches' mention this story about: Naked airline pilot and naked stewardess run around in the local woods creating a scene and wind up in jail, upset the local community asking passing cars for underwear, miss the flight out the next day because of their $10,000 bond...yes, my life is in their hands and where have their hands been eh?????
http://www.pennlive.com/news/patriotnews/index.ssf?/base/news/1211252115282860.xml&coll=1&thispage=1 this is hysterical...as a last little item the US ranks 97 out of 140 countries for possible peacefulness...iceland is number one---the most peaceful country in the world.....Chile, Belarus, south Korea and Libya outrank us in peacefulness well maybe when we get rid of this Texas yahoo driving us we may move up a few notches and beat out Libya for peacefulness---it's a goal after all------



One of the under appreciated top five films to me of all times....is Knocked-up....great dialog, excellent weird personalities...a great take off on doctors, male bonding, men vs. women, how pink eye happens...and how you can change your life if you want to...one of the top five absolutely...

Ok that's it
