Hi Laurie! Great meeting you last week. Did anybody hear Laurie's Listener Hour last Saturday?

9:19am
Laurie:
Ooooooh, I'm seeing Quintron next month. We have two awesome local bands who have gotten airplay on WFMU, and one of them is opening for Quintron. Go, Electric Bunnies, go.
Originally, Jacuzzi Boys, the other good local band, were going to open, but they're going to be in Brooklyn, I think, that same day opening up for King Khan again.
And it was great meeting you too, Ken! I had so much fun doing my listener hour and at the Record Fair :)

Ken the sky is blue because it is the frequency of sunlight (which is white) that the atmosphere of earth does not filter out. Addtionally, the sun on the horizon is not really there, but is a virtually refracted mirage. Tramadol!

Once upon a time, a few years ago, during a 100yr snow down here in the battleground state of NC, Negator did a few lines of a mix of Katamine, blow, and meth. My friend stopped by and was offered a line and accepted. Before he did it I said, "Got insurance?". Tee-Hee since I found Jesus I don't do those things anymore. Mission of Burma! My band opened for them! Nice dudes.

Your picture of the black metal suburban kids reminds me: I saw a picture of Wes Cage with his dad Nicholas Cage and Nicholas Cage's young girlfriend (wife? I don't know). He was wearing white cake makeup all over and got it all over his black clothes and boots. I laughed. It looks like he was either baking cookies or rolling around in a giant pile of coke before he left.
Fact: Wes Cage once sent this girl a message on mySpace telling her to check out his band because he, and I quote, "bring[s] the cold darkness of [his] viking roots." HE'S ITALIAN!!!!

There is a legend that some of the Jews hired to play Indians back when they made a Western a week would use Yiddish when they were supposed to be speaking Injun. Presumably, the Sicilians, Greeks, and Armenians they also hired did the equivalent.
I've also seen 9but can't find) some source claiming that some of the few actual Indians they hired (rarely of the right tribe) would speak their traditional language, and use the opportunity to insult the lead actors.

There were Vikings (Normans) in Italy. They stopped in the southern spots on the way home from the Crusades. The locals headed for the hills thinking it was the Turks coming to do their annual pillage and rape date. Once they calmed down to feed and gave the Vikings wine. A few days later...the Turks did show up and again the villagers headed for the hills. The Normans however were happy to fight. Imagine the look on the poor short Turks' faces when they discovered tall screaming drunk Normans ready to do battle with 4 ft broadswords. After the battle...the local Italians invited the Vikings to stay and some did. This is why you find tall Blond Italians in the south of Italy today.

Mac, that is interesting. Must be about 1000 years ago, which is about 35 generations. Now you've 2 parents and 4 grand parents, that's 3 generations. Go back 35 generations and you will find that you have about 30 billion direct ancestors. Either we are all related or we are terribly inbred.
