Mood:
don't askNow Playing: Dead Can Dance-Ariadne
Topic: Shun not the blog
Give to me your hopeless hearts and make me ill. It seems to me that whenever I try to take advantage of an online radio source, I click 'play' & it always starts with the
same song by the same band every morning. I do not appreciate that crap. The list is supposed to be taylored around
my preferences and yet, I skip the same stupid song every morning. No, I don't like Deep Forest, nor do I care much
at all for Enya. But I do enjoy hearing songs by the Magnetic Fields and the Tear Garden which is all I do like about the
whole idea behind custom radio stations, minus the crap they think you'll like based on what you do like (and the wait is
generally moderate, unwanted, but moderate.) I'll have to inform them that Skinny Puppy has NOTHING in common with
Meat Beat Manifesto nor is KMFDM anything like Bjork. I type in Dead Can Dance and it spits out Moby. I guess that is
just another way we are letting the machines think for us... "I will not eat anything with the word 'dick' in it" But what about Spotted Dick? It's only a dessert! Well, an English dessert:
A cylinder of dense spongy dough with raisins or currants imbedded in it, which make it "spotted"; "dick" referring to the
dough. So, raisin cake. Wow! Something so simple with such a repulsive name! It sounds like a disease.

Deep in the wranglands? of Peppergate, there loomed an obscurity in the air, much slampant and imposing with ...? the leaf of a fern Good Thursday to you all! Enjoy your newfound knowledge and bludgeon your peers with it!
a green mist and a foul stench, reminiscent of the bogs of Peppergate Forest.? Limping through the brush, a frail old woman ...
burdened by the weight of a pale containing verter-water?, recently extracted from the grave of her beloved, wandered
hopelessly searching for ... the path that would take her back to her home, a home long since vanished when the roots of the
trees consumed what they felt was rightfully theirs. The journey to her beloved's grave was long and treacherous, compounded
by the fact that the accident she met .... a talking worm named Samuel. And he tried to climb up her leg and eat away at her stitches.
But he couldn't do that, because then her leaves would fall out and she would have no legs to walk on. So she decided... to continue,
but it left her hopeless and nightfoundered? for fear she too, would be absorbed by the Deadciduous Grove. Accompanied by her new
friend, Samuel, they managed to make it until morning, eating nothing but frond? wafers and ... deer droppings. Suddenly a screech
owl swooped down and plucked poor Samuel from the ground. In a flash the owl flew back to her nest and proceeded to rip Samuel
apart and then finally to devour him. The old bat was mortified and hurled a curse up at the owl...
