Epiphany 6th Jan. after the 12 Days of Xmas seems to me a logical break off point ? 'Solstice' means 'Sun stands still' - so prolonging a bit seems reasonable. As for saying 'HappyNewYear' - maybe the first time to anybody if you haven't yet This Year ...up until ...yeah, pretty soon.

Oddball Fact #237: Within the film The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, Lee Van Cleef (Angel Eyes) symbolically represents Scorpio at the final circular cemetery gun battle. Blondie represents Leo and Tuco represents Aquarius if one views the circular gun battle formation as a Zodiac wheel. Sergio Leone associated Tuco's character with water all throughout the film, akin to Aquarius or the water bearer..

That sounds like a wild movie. I will check it out. I've only ever seen Lee Van Cleef play the role of a heel. Never a more ambiguous or benevolent character. It had to be difficult being cast as the bad guy so often.

hi chresti!

when she was still in high school, my younger sister would proudly tell everyone that she shared a birthday with Farrah Fawcett (it was seriously like living with Erica Kane) -- so i would *remind* her that it was also Sid Vicious Death Day

The 'Qatsi' trilogy is mesmerizing. Ron Fricke's camera work combined with the music of Philip Glass = Magick. The film Candyman (1992) has some amazing Glass work on it too, Helen's Theme in particular is a standout on that soundtrack.

I think Peter Lorre played the top henchmen of the character who wanted to purchase the Maltese falcon from Sam Spade (Bogart). They never really tell you what's so special about the falcon statue though (for example is there microfilm stashed within it?). If I recall correctly it's smashed in the end, turns out to be a fabrication.

My sister and I started watching All My Children in the summer of 1971. The villains and sociopaths were beyond compare in the early years. Long after we lost interest and left home, we had addicted our mother, so I would go home to watch it with my mom, and have a grilled cheese. I loved my mom and she loved psychopaths.

Genres of music which might be interesting to hear cross-pollinate: Whatever one might classify Dead Can Dance (world/darkwave) combined with a band like Salem (the witch house band from Michigan) combined with a band like Be Forest (from Italy) combined with Laibach (from Slovenia).That mix would sound pretty strange.
