just because… I might still be reliving my youth following the ratcat memories earlier this week (this might become an ongoing series…we shall see)

stripey shirts and electric typewriters November 29, 2008

Inspired by a friend on facebook reminiscing about 1927 (the band, not the year) I’m remembering the late 80s and early 90s, which for me was the end of high school and the beginning of university. Remember when those stripey shirts looked cool. When we were only just beginning to hear murmurs about Nirvana. When […]

modern gardening equipment vs piano impressionists November 26, 2008

Why does my new next door neighbour feel the need to whippership right next to our boundary fence while I am trying to search iTunes for Debussy’s Prelude “the sunken cathedral”. It’s a very quiet and atmospheric piece. I can’t remember the French and so am relying on the little iTunes previews. Whipper snipper is […]

Now I have to admit that I was only half listening to the television, because I was starting dinner at the same time, but this evening on Extra (channel nine) there was a story about mothers using classical music, specifically opera on their unsuspecting small children. Presumably, this is a bid to increase their intelligence. […]

Old favourites… October 18, 2008

A rather poor excuse for a post…more like a list really…but look what I found on youtube today. Don’t Let’s Start – Early days of mechanical dancing Birdhouse in your Soul – Full blown chorus of extras, masks, bicycles and lots of nightlights.
