music recommendations for the day:
so i was talking to ryanabout music. he had mentioned a couple of artists in which i am dying to listen to. one of them is sigur ros:



sigur ros

"if you like radiohead, you would like these guys,"says ryan

excerpt on them:
all of the vocals ( ) are however in hopelandic. hopelandic (vonlenska in icelandic) is the 'invented language' in which jónsi sings before lyrics are written to the vocals. it's of course not an actual language by definition (no vocabulary, grammar, etc.), it's rather a form of gibberish vocals that fits to the music and acts as another instrument. jónsi likens it with what singers sometimes do when they've decided on the melody but haven't written the lyrics yet. many languages were considered to be used on ( ), including english, but they decided on hopelandic. hopelandic (vonlenska) got its name from first song which jónsi sang it on...

THEY MADE THEIR OWN LANGUAGE??? DAMN...

next is Joss Stone



joss stone

"mark my words Joss Stone will be to soul music as Norah Jones was to jazz...If there is one thing you can take away from my friendship, it's that this girl will blow you away--ryan

i am going to have to get this book


dude friend: I found out that the FBI received word that the terrorists were planning to start wildfires across the us...

dude friend: i found it in the "notes and sources" section of michael moore's new book, that was written months before the fires began

dude friend: shit, the book CAME OUT before the wildfires began...

Alfie says: the new one? "dude, where's my country?"

dude friend: yup

dude friend: there ya go......and no one wants to say it's terrorism because then it looks like they ain't doin their job...everyone would say, "you didn't do shit on 9/11!! and you didn't stop them in cali and you knew it was gonna happen"

dude friend: can you imagine if it got out that the fbi received a transcript informing them of the plans to start wildfires and then they didn't prevent it? BUT...they did say it was arson. i heard the proclamation on the news....

dude friend: shit, man...i'm just glad you're ok

dude friend: get that book...and buy stupid white men...and then get gore vidal's perpetual war for perpetual peace...

For all those men who believe that there's no reason to buy the cow when you can get the milk for free, you may want to keep the following in mind...

Nowadays, 80% of women are against marriage, as they have wised up to the fact that for 6 ounces of sausage it's not worth buying the entire pig.

Q: How many journalists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: Three. One to report it as an inspired government program to bring
light to the people, one to report it as a diabolical government
plot to deprive the poor of darkness, and one to win a pulitzer
prize for reporting that Electric Company hired a lightbulb
assassin to break the bulb in the first place.
