I am easly obssed and it seems to be happeing again. Beautifl young tragic genious really affects me. It makes me doubt myself mankind and certianly most woman. The tragady of Ian and others like him...Yes even Adam(Ant) stays in my mind and plays like a broken record. I cannot get them out. This when I truly <a href="http://s259.photobucket.com/albums/hh289/silentest/?action=view&current=ian_curtis2.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="width: 246px; height: 395px;" src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh289/silentest/ian_curtis2.jpg" alt="ian curtis" border="0" /></a>Wonder about the inner wrokings of my mind and my own prattling with the muse of tragedy or would it be comedey. Its like a a farce or a Molier play (I wish he had been a Britt for a more heartfelt refrance on my part.) I think it is time to leave the power of <span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">Joy</span></span> for the chemicl depandancy of Bez and The Happy Modays.

He grew up in the Hurdsfield area of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macclesfield" title="Macclesfield">Macclesfield</a> and from a young age he exhibited talent as a poet. He was influenced by the musicians <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Bowie" title="David Bowie">David Bowie</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iggy_Pop" title="Iggy Pop">Iggy Pop</a>.</p> <p>Curtis married his girlfriend <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deborah_Curtis" title="Deborah Curtis">Deborah Woodruff</a> in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1975" title="1975">1975</a>, while they both were still teenagers. They had one child, Natalie (born <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_16" title="April 16">16 April</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1979" title="1979">1979</a>). Curtis had a lover, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgian" class="mw-redirect" title="Belgian">Belgian</a> journalist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Annik_Honor%C3%A9&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Annik Honoré (page does not exist)">Annik Honoré</a>, whom he met after a concert in an interview.</p> <p><a name="Joy_Division" id="Joy_Division"></a></p> <h2><span class="editsection"></span><span class="mw-headline">Joy Division</span></h2> <p>In 1976, Curtis convinced himself his destiny was as a performer. He eventually met two young musicians, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_Sumner" title="Bernard Sumner">Bernard Sumner</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Hook" title="Peter Hook">Peter Hook</a>. Sumner and Hook mentioned to him they were trying to form a band and he immediately put himself forward as a vocalist and lyricist. The three of them recruited and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacked" title="Sacked">sacked</a> a succession of drummers before settling on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Morris" title="Stephen Morris">Stephen Morris</a> as their final member. Initially, the band was called <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warsaw_%28band%29" class="mw-redirect" title="Warsaw (band)">Warsaw</a> before changing its name to Joy Division in 1978, due to conflicts with the name of another band, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warsaw_Pakt" title="Warsaw Pakt">Warsaw Pakt</a>. The name "Joy Division" stemmed from the sexual slavery wing of a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi" class="mw-redirect" title="Nazi">Nazi</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration_camp" class="mw-redirect" title="Concentration camp">concentration camp</a> in the 1955 novel <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_House_of_Dolls" title="The House of Dolls">The House of Dolls</a></i>.</p> <p>While performing for Joy Division, Curtis became known for his quiet and awkward demeanor, as well as a unique dancing style reminiscent of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seizure" title="Seizure">epileptic seizures</a> he experienced, sometimes even on stage. The resemblance was such that audience members were sometimes uncertain if Curtis was dancing or having a seizure; there were several incidents where he collapsed and had to be helped off stage.</p> <p>Many of Curtis's writings were filled with imagery of emotional isolation, death, alienation, and urban degeneration. He once commented in an interview that he wrote about "the different ways different people can cope with certain problems, how they might or might not adapt".<br /><br /><a href="http://s184.photobucket.com/albums/x7/midian4902/?action=view&current=iancurtis.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x7/midian4902/iancurtis.jpg" alt="Ian Curtis" border="0" /></a><br /></p> <p><a name="Death" id="Death"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" class="mw-headline" >Death</span></p> <p>Curtis' last live performance was on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_2" title="May 2">2 May</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980" title="1980">1980</a> at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_University" class="mw-redirect" title="Birmingham University">Birmingham University</a>, a show that included Joy Division's first and only performance of the song "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceremony_%28song%29" title="Ceremony (song)">Ceremony</a>", In the early hours of Sunday, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_18" title="May 18">18 May</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980" title="1980">1980</a>, Curtis hung himself in his kitchen after having viewed <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werner_Herzog" title="Werner Herzog">Werner Herzog's</a> film <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroszek" title="Stroszek">Stroszek</a></i> and listening to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iggy_Pop" title="Iggy Pop">Iggy Pop's</a> <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Idiot_%28album%29" title="The Idiot (album)">The Idiot</a></i>. Many rumours surround the possible reasons for his suicide, with his poor health (due to the drugs he was having to take for his epilepsy, an exhausting performing schedule and related epilepsy problems) and failed marriage most often suggested. He was 23 years old.</p> <p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Wilson" title="Tony Wilson">Tony Wilson</a> speaking about the death said, "I'd been warned on a train to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London" title="London">London</a> two weeks earlier by Annik Honoré, Curtis' lover. I asked her, 'What do you think of the new album.' She goes, 'I'm terrified.' I said, 'What are you terrified of?' She replies, 'Don't you understand? He means it.' And I go, 'No, he doesn't mean it - it's art.' And guess what? He fucking meant it."Curtis was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cremation" title="Cremation">cremated</a>, and his ashes were buried in Macclesfield Cemetery.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Curtis#cite_note-3" title="">[4]</a></sup> The inscription on his memorial stone, "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Will_Tear_Us_Apart" title="Love Will Tear Us Apart">Love Will Tear Us Apart</a>", was chosen by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deborah_Curtis" title="Deborah Curtis">Deborah Curtis</a>, and is a reference to the Joy Division song.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://s277.photobucket.com/albums/kk73/Charlotte_Priestley/?action=view&current=11683199_l.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="width: 316px; height: 401px;" src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk73/Charlotte_Priestley/11683199_l.jpg" alt="ian curtis" border="0" /></a></p><p><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084059541148461894-6128842918598754109?l=monicashow.blogspot.com'/></div>The Monica Showhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12718194743433759110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084059541148461894.post-19221449336748632582008-06-16T18:42:00.000-07:002008-06-16T19:10:40.872-07:00Rest, Rust and RecreationI am off for 3 days. One day sleep, one day health one day play. My body is not used to this non exercise lifestyle and all my extra work has caused me some physical pain. Not really pain but weariness and muscle aches. It will take some finagling on my part to get a routine it is just quite a bit harder without a car.<br />I had a great day at work. Low sales but sort of a team building kind of day with the other managers. Lauren and Julie where really funny today so I had fun with it.<br />I gave my ex a tie for fathers day and I think Mike got a bit jealous. He is cute that way. It was strange when Cecil me it was so foreign. I have only been with Mike for 8 years now that any man feels wrong. it was a nice jester but I only belong to my love. I left so many instructions at work for everyone, I hope things get done. It is not that I do not trust them I just need all these things done so we can just start doing better<a href="http://s72.photobucket.com/albums/i174/kikikens_8375/?action=view&current=hosiery_spanx.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i174/kikikens_8375/hosiery_spanx.jpg" border="0" alt="Spanx" /></a>.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Lots of SPANX TO SELL.!!!!</span><br />Sold about 100 so far. So I want to sell 200 more so I can do well...<br />I think I will go bath the boy and see what is going on with Brenda. I am on people overload and I want no political thoughts in my head tonight.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084059541148461894-1922144933674863258?l=monicashow.blogspot.com'/></div>The Monica Showhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12718194743433759110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084059541148461894.post-72246244944934873482008-06-15T19:47:00.000-07:002008-06-17T16:38:14.404-07:00Too many clothes???? Never!!!Davardo says I own too many clothes. In other word I shop too much. I think he is crazy. We work at Nordstrom and he for Chanel how could he say such things. Now he has a De rigour ensemble BLACK. I on the other hand do not and I hate reaping my outfits. I do repeat them at times but I change them around with jewelry and hosiery (yes that is I with the Makeup-Forever eyelashes at on Beauty on Location) But even then I have a thing for <span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" ><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Betsy Johnson</span></span> purses and earrings and other gadgets.

Why back about the time Ian Curtist died and <span style="font-weight: bold;">Blue Monday came about.</span>The days of bars such as Raw Power and Light. The original <span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Changes</span></span> and <span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Spit Club</span></span></span> in Boston. Shows like <span style="font-weight: bold;">Bow Wow Wow, INX, The Furs,The Police,The Clash Split Enz</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;">Adam Ant</span>. People like Lee, Scott and Rudy. Stores like Commander
<br />Salamander in DC and Fiarucci in NYC. I miss it or rather I remember it. It is an era many years ago and I have other things happening now. I guess it is Nostalgia. A free fucking time in life. I love my life but I miss the darkness and the drink and the total hedonism I reveled in. This is not my life now but the Gen X in know seemed to have missed the whole thing. Thank God or Kurt for Mike. This world would suck without him. He is someone who feels heart and soul the Music of the genius the music of the thinker, the desolate,the poet.
<br />He is a wonder in my life that is often filled with the mundane and the aftermath of stupidity. I shutter thinking of my daily encounters with the bleakness all around me but a smile from my boys alleviates the pain of mediocrity.
<br />All in all I cannot spend anymore I need a car <a href="http://s113.photobucket.com/albums/n202/gulaboy/Drawings/?action=view&current=CartoonCar.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="width: 256px; height: 265px;" src="http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n202/gulaboy/Drawings/CartoonCar.jpg" alt="Cartoon Car" border="0" /></a>.
<br />To allow peace from my deprecating nature and shelter me from that which cases me anguish. It is people but I hate admitting to it. I am not good at the money thing but learning is growing even if it is stifling I will live!! So I must learn to bite the bullet and save!! It ia quite beyond me but when I threaghten to leave my husband becasue of the pblic transportaion fight it is something I must think about.

Not that I am opposed to it in the abstract but the smell, the heat and my own horrible disposition when exposed to the heat and a hard day at work. My husband likes the masses and he is so concerned for the environment that the stench of an armpit of a male fellow passenger does not bother him. My son loves riding so much that he calls it a FANTASTIC VOYAGE. He will not even ride in my ex husband when I am using it for errands. I wish I could view the world through his eyes and maybe It would not be such an issue for me. Alas, it does not and I am not the better for it.<br /><br />I am listening to the new David Sedars book in the iMac so I will report later.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084059541148461894-8075768015472235053?l=monicashow.blogspot.com'/></div>The Monica Showhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12718194743433759110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084059541148461894.post-29772779955015165572008-06-06T17:34:00.000-07:002008-06-06T18:08:11.143-07:00Wax and WaneThe hosiery baby died. My girl at work had a miscarriage she wasn't very far along but I know how it feel because I had one. Its tragic but she is only 22 and her whole life ahead of her. I can never tell her because this is not what one needs nor wants to hear when this situation arises. Only time heals all wounds.Its true!! No matter how trite this sounds I know it is true. Well at least it is true for me.<br />Now I know she has really good reason not to be at work and the doctor told her not to come in till Monday but the other girl called in ill and she just seems to be stressed from school.I do not think Kathleen is quite cut out for reality. I think she believes that her dream job of teaching as an ESL teacher will make things all honky dory but she has never taught and she is 28.<br />What it all comes down to is that I have not had any coverage at work for 3 days. I have been working double shifts <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);font-size:180%;" >FUCKING Tired!!!<br /></span></span>So whats a girl to do??<br />Well I go between feeling sorry for them, then me then I get angry. There are things to be done at work that are not going to happen because of their absence. So I will have to ride it out.<br />So like the moon my moods will wax and wane and I will continue the cycle.<br />Thank God for Davardo (David+Retardo=Davardo) I am Monarded(Monica+retarded=Monarded)He is my long lost brother/sister. He is my makeup artist, a Chanel god of sorts.<a href="http://s194.photobucket.com/albums/z44/coutured_with_love/?action=view&current=Chanelmakeup-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z44/coutured_with_love/Chanelmakeup-1.jpg" alt="Chanel makeup icon" border="0" /></a> He is the kindest most decent human being I have met in a long time. He feeds me spiritually. He makes sure I get to work now that my car is broken and he makes me laugh.<br />He took me shopping after work. He bought some sheets. Mostly I walked around with him. It was nice doing this with a friend. I am glad we met<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084059541148461894-2977277995501516557?l=monicashow.blogspot.com'/></div>The Monica Showhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12718194743433759110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084059541148461894.post-73443242361976622342008-06-04T19:07:00.000-07:002008-06-04T19:20:59.815-07:00Cool and Collected<a href="http://s305.photobucket.com/albums/nn210/ischless/May%2010%20to%20May%2012%20Athens/?action=view&current=IMG_0624.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn210/ischless/May%2010%20to%20May%2012%20Athens/IMG_0624.jpg" border="0" alt="Dresses" /></a><br />So I had a "Talking to" with one of my <span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);">girls</span> at work and it went well.

Do you believe as I do that a kiss is more intimate than sex. I harbor very few feelings of lost love. In other words men who I once loved, now that it is over I feel nothing for. Not sadness nor hatred, not friendship nor regret. This leaves me wondering about the exact depth of my feelings. Is it natural? I even lost a lover to death and I have never felt anything but maybe detachment. This is a matter that I have given quite a bit of thought to and still..... No answer<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084059541148461894-2417992582220960924?l=monicashow.blogspot.com'/></div>The Monica Showhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12718194743433759110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084059541148461894.post-63360981177307288232008-06-02T19:31:00.000-07:002008-06-02T20:59:29.316-07:00Death becomes herSo what do you do when people start dying or getting illness that are and could be fatal. If you are entrusted with such a secret it is very frightening yet an honor at the same time. To be held in such esteem by someone that you have known for an eternity and not know that you are still that important to them makes you wonder about life, karma and you place in it. I hope all goes well for my "friend" my heartaches at his burden that he has chosen to bear alone. He is stronger than I ever knew. I wish I could offer better explanation but I promised not to so I wont. I am just not good here.<br />Work is just that yet I still love my job. It is strange to see the dynamics of women working so closely together. To see the clicks and the cat fights. There is sch a high school feeling about the whole thing. I feel weird to have workers fighting over whether or I have a teacher pet or if one person is an ass kisser. I come from a professional environment and this is so insipid. Kathleen(the whiner) went as far to tell Marlana(the supposedly ass kisser)that because,Kathleen had lived in Europe she was better equipped to the one in charge!<br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-size:180%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">WRONG </span></span><br />You tell me what one thing has to do with the other.<br /><br />Well a broken car, the end of the school year and a new purse.

I am not sure when I became so humble(ha ha) but I know when I am riding an American and maybe an international trend. I will say it took me 4 years to get on the trend. It was only the last season I watched that was not on syndication. Okay I will get to the point SEX AND THE CITY!!!!!!!!! THE MOVIE<br />I am so enamoured with this show even if I am married with kids and live in Texas. I have that connection with NYC that many people that end up living there do.

I blame the quacks below. Dexter is by far my favorite show of the moment, then again serial killers are fascinating. Sociopaths are a breed of people that still need more studying but it has not been easy going for scientist to do because of civil rights that prisoner have that wont allow them to participate in certain studies, especially neuroscience studies. In the show Dexter was orphaned at the age of three and harboring a traumatic secret, Dexter was adopted by a Miami police officer named Harry Morgan who recognized his <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sociopathic" title="Sociopathic">sociopathic</a> tendencies and taught him to channel his gruesome passion for killing and dissecting in a “constructive” way: by killing only heinous criminals (such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mafia" title="Mafia">mob</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassins" title="Assassins">assassins</a> and serial killers of the innocent) who have slipped through the justice system. To satisfy his interest in blood and to facilitate his own crimes, Dexter works as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami Metro Police Department. Although his drive to kill is unflinching (otherwise overcome by a feeling of “emptiness”) Dexter is, through extensive instruction from Harry, able to fake normal emotions and keep up his appearance as a socially-responsible human being.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);font-size:180%;" >Quacks on Crack</span><br /><br />These people are worst than Dexter as they are cult leaders. Charismatic, educated cult leaders everyone knows. Oprah has a show,books, a mag, she tells people what to read, what to where, what to see.... <a href="http://s169.photobucket.com/albums/u227/frekleboy14/?action=view&current=dfsdk.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u227/frekleboy14/dfsdk.jpg" alt="oprah gone crazy" border="0" /></a>She then gives them gifts and buys off their love. Kool aid is next Weeks themes so maybe they will disappear. She is a bright woman but I do not believe one need to follow the advice nor worship any one celebrity (unless it is Cillian) for any reason. It is as if she will be put up for saint hood here anytime soon.<a href="http://s156.photobucket.com/albums/t11/sarah8622/?action=view&current=perricone1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t11/sarah8622/perricone1.jpg" border="0" alt="Dr. Perricone\'s Book" /></a><br />Dr. Perricone, who is also beloved by Oprah is a fish of so called(mercury free) blood. A dermatologist turned nutritionist and one who owns the rights to the fountain of youth has a groupie base fan like that of the King of Rock and Roll(although the good doctor says to go to the toilet he does not preach to die on it). I am pretty sure that Dr. Perricone believes that if Elvis had followed his advice e he would not have died and he would still be thrusting his hips to WW ll vets in Vegas.<br />Now his theories are sound, but his follower treat him as the end all be all and that is <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);font-size:180%;" >WRONG <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);font-size:85%;" >He may have published many books(8) but he has no scientific backing to any thing he preaches.

A whole/holy Trinity of sorts. No separation of mind body and spirit. This means mutual respect for the god figure within and that means honoring choice. So it is never anything but life choices. Working for and endocrinologist you learn what is a personal choice and what is genetic so I can see people are faced with daily but I digress.<br />Back to the fat ass.<br />Women and sometimes men complain about being fat they starve themselves, they trap themselves and look for quick fixes even when it is more exercise and less food. They beat themselves up for falling off the wagon They believe that 20lbs or 30lbs or 100lbs lost they will achieve happiness. What is this happiness. I buy happiness in the form of a lipstick all the time, let me tell you it does not work for me and you are kidding yourself if you think it is going to work for you.<br />I talk about this because I keep thinking that people will stop playing lip service to health and happiness and really try to live it. I wish they would not hate themselves and their bodies so much that thinking that Jennifer Lopez has a fat ass and Kate Moss Is too thin and that they have the God given right to judge perfection.<br />They make me want to WHACK A MOLE<br /><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m248/Thunder-Pig/kOSkiDZMOLE.gif" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084059541148461894-9085658071600918688?l=monicashow.blogspot.com'/></div>The Monica Showhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12718194743433759110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084059541148461894.post-69715627096156652402007-07-29T19:57:00.000-07:002007-07-30T07:39:38.810-07:00So What is it With The children of GodL.Ron Hubbard,<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb23/cruz_azul_fan1/sci.jpg" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a> David Burg, David Koresh, Jim Jones, Sung Young Moon, Moishe Rosen great cult leader of our times. There are more and if I felt like adding it may bother some people. but I could add, Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, or even the 700 hundred club. They creep me out Much against televangelism mam. The first few are really off their rockers you know. I did not put Charles Manson up there because he is beyond the scope of our understanding and as evil as evil can be. Sociopaths have no way of ever being helped but they can charm the pants off of you so beware<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/TokeRAT/2004-08-20steve--Manson016.jpg" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a>He is truly a person that frightens me. There is no remorse,no empathy. There is nothing there. Just empty darkness with an ego that goes on with the belief that he talks to God or that he is God. It is just hard to look at. I have one person like that in my life and it is funny that he still functions in the norms of our society.<br />I feel for the Children of God and their <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">Flirty Fishing <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">children having sex with Jesus at 4 is really strange and even after River Phoenix and Rose McGowen tried to explain the cult, River doing it from the dead ,I do not understand it. What make a person want this salvation. What makes mankind long for a unity with a <span style="font-weight: bold;">Higher Power</span>(as the AA people say) Are we that alone, are we that needy. Do we just not connect. It is just so hard to understand that one need so much leadership to be told that we are not alone and need to function as a group. I see this historical struggle never ending, but I also see this struggle as never finding an answer, because as much as we search for a group dynamic and an eternal family we are alone in one body and we seem to have the ultimate disconnect and it seems that will be the only answer that really will hold us together.<br /></span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084059541148461894-6971562709615665240?l=monicashow.blogspot.com'/></div>The Monica Showhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12718194743433759110noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084059541148461894.post-59482846340665267142007-07-28T20:39:00.000-07:002007-07-30T07:41:33.048-07:00Cillian and I have breakfast on Pluto<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e46/lonelyxkissesxtoxsharex/Cillian%20Murphy/f9b2c4e4.jpg" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br />What can I say.

Does anyone remember Manchester burning in <a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u147/TAGatRPL/28DaysLaterMovie.jpg" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a>.

What a waste.I waited and waited for this movie. I love Danny Boyle, but something happened here, something very bad and I almost walked out, I almost never walk out of a movie. I did walk out of Jude Law in <span style="font-weight:bold;">Alfie</span>, although I loved Michael Caine in the original. I do not even walk out of Adam Sandler movies. So to actually think of walking out Cillian(Jim)it was not good. So.....Back to Lamb.Lamb were an electronic music duo from Manchester known for their trip hop and drum and bass influenced sound. The duo comprised producer Andy Barlow, also known as the "Hipoptimist", and singer-songwriter Lou Rhodes.Although getting their start in Manchester, Lamb are more commonly associated with the Bristol-based trip hop sound that was popular during the nineties. Aside from trip hop, their musical style is a distinctive mixture of jazz, dub, breaks and drum and bass, with a strong vocal element and, in their later works especially, some acoustic influences. While they were a hit phenomenon in the UK, they found limited success in other parts of the world.Lou Rhodes is a singer and songwriter from Manchester, England.<br /><br />Rhodes is seen to be an intensely private person. Little is known about her beyond her musical career other than that she has two sons, Reuben and Solomon, having recently divorced the father of her children, percussionist Crispin Robinson.<br /><br />As well as providing vocals for the band Lamb, Rhodes has recently released her debut solo album Beloved One.<br /><br />Rhodes has also collaborated with The Cinematic Orchestra on Ma Fleur.<br />Give her a listen if you can!!!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084059541148461894-4692168355143403990?l=monicashow.blogspot.com'/></div>The Monica Showhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12718194743433759110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084059541148461894.post-38799436982420072702007-07-03T20:50:00.000-07:002007-07-29T17:40:05.253-07:00The HiddenSo what is new now was new then and the unread shall remain unread.
