I Kan't Spell

I liked Sunday and Monday this week. It was refreshing to be around people that I didn't want to punch or walk away from.

It would have been nice if Tim was around.

I'm going to say this for the last time. Jackson Browne is really really really good. Now I am going to give you alist of songs that you should download and then listen to and realize that he is the white Stevie Wonder in a immigrant Mexican from Germany body.

1. Late For The Sky (the entire album is his masterpiece work but...the title track is the best of it)
   
2. Your Bright Baby Blues (good changes and a nice crescendo towards the end...some of his best lyrical writing)
   
3. Before the Deluge (one of those songs he wrote for the "No Nukes" show)
   
4. Rock Me on the Water (a classic that was co-written by David Crosby and Bonnie Rait)
   
5. Something Fine (A personal favorite and written when he was just 18)
   
6. Lives in the Balance (the political song that will turn your ear from happy hippy song writer to angry pissed off liberal)
   
7. Looking Into You (just beautiful and wonderfully metaphorical)
   
8. The Pretender (my favorite famous song of his...written the week after his wife committed suicide)
   
9. Cocaine (the Robert Johnson song that has gone through the years and has been covered by the likes of Jimmy Paige, Keith Richards, Muddy Water, and Howlin Wolf...no it's not the clapton version...and out of all those I like his JB's the best)
   
10. These Days (Written by JB and Nico when she dated the young 18 year old prodigy. She also sang the song and recorded it...you can hear it on the Royal Tannebuam's soundtrack...it's on the scene at the airport.)

I'm really pumped fro my interview tomorrow...I'll post here as soon as I hear one way or the other. I feel really optimistic and energetic about the thought of working there and keeping on....

Peter Pan has been remade too many times. What is the Peter Pan attraction? I always found it scary and weak. I hate all those kids that Peter goes to visit. Dorks in long night shirts with top hats on. Screw that...and Captain Hook was a punk...especially since he has the body and voice of Dustin Hoffman etched into my head. I like the original cartoon I saw when I was like 7 better...that scared me...

I found one of my Dog's old tennis balls yesterday rolled under the couch...I felt really sad for a little while...

Gomez "Make no Sound" --- goooooood

When I was 12 I thought Dances with Wolves was pretty good...I saw it last night for the first time in a long time...it's not good..it's really shite actually...the white woman in the tribe is always oddly dirtier than everyone else...and KC is just not believable when you hit after the age 15. The Indian actors look like they honeslty own kitchenettes somewhere and go shopping at Macy's in their downtime. I wonder if that movie was on to try to get people to see the Last Samurai rip off analogy...how many movies are rip-offs of that motif...the outsider becomes an insider after he has been defeated by his enemies. What's the fascination with that...and if there is that fascination, and it's that prevalent...it explains why even though this is my home...I sort of itch every day to leave again and be engulfed back into something that I don't understand.
