ok, another list.
lists are good cos:
a-they’re easy to read/digest
b-they’re varied
so, another list:
a-it’s cold here in nyc. again, REALLY cold. saturday it was warm.
today it’s cold. and not minor differences. saturday it was 60 degrees, today is minus
5. that’s a difference of 65 degrees. it’s like we’re living on the dark side of the moon. well, apart from the atmosphere and seasons and water and lack of lunar dust. apart from that it’s almost exactly like living on the dark side of the moon.
b-‘moby go best of remixed etc’ was released today in many parts of the world. a “compact disc” comprised of contemporary “re-mixes” of popular songs hitherto known in their previously extant state.
c-recently, as a nerd, i’ve started watching old star treks. they’re so strangely comforting. the ethos and the costumes and the buttons and switches. whenever i watch an old star trek i always imagine the cast and crew going home to their mid 60’s modernish burbank homes and thinking ‘this will never end’. now they’re all in their 60’s and 70’s.
tis the way of all things, i guess.
the plots/stories are all so simple and decent and ethical. except the one where they go to the planet and are all made happy by plant spores and then kirk defeats happiness with aggression. this one always troubled me. why not just be happy, even if it’s
plant related?
poor spock, in the end he looks wistfully at kirk and says, and i paraphrase, ‘for a moment i was truly happy’.
d-i’m off to europe on wednesday. if you live in brussels or paris or london i guess i’ll see you soon.
e-i really do write too often, right? i should learn laconicism.
f-that’s all, goodnight.
moby
