Silliness So what are you doing RIGHT NOW? - Page 8

Husker Du was, to me, a bore. It all sounded like something I had heard years before. I think I'll stick to Warren Zevon, Leonard Cohen, and Joni Mitchell music. In fact, I will put some on right now!

I'm wondering why my office is sooooo quiet. <standing up to peek over the cube walls> Did everyone leave and forget to tell me?

Have you tried pouring it into a cup, and using the cup handle?

Or use the left over superglue from Ricky's project...

Listening to Leonard Cohen and trying to work out which book I feel like converting tonight...

RWood · 08-06-2008, 05:04 PM

Funny, Cohen's Teachers (from his first album) is playing right now.

zelda_pinwheel · 08-06-2008, 05:26 PM

aaaah, Leonard Cohen. i think my favorite Leonard Cohen song is Bird on a Wire.

Sparrow · 08-06-2008, 05:54 PM

I like 'Sisters of Mercy' - great song, great band!

Favourite album - 'I'm Your Man' (that really is the title of my favourite Cohen album, not a subliminal message or anything).

zelda_pinwheel · 08-06-2008, 05:55 PM

aaaah, "i'm your man"... that song puts me in a right state.

nekokami · 08-06-2008, 06:27 PM

I admit I'm rather partial to "Halleluja" myself.

zelda_pinwheel · 08-06-2008, 06:47 PM

aaah, hallelujah... brilliant song...

(must go listen to leonard cohen this minute...)

Drilling stripped screws out of the kitchen drawers and putting the chalkboard paint on the doors (now that I've run out of the magnetic stuff).

My favourite cover of it is K.D.Lang's (as on Hymns of the 49th Parallel).

Cheers,
Marc

i've never found a cover i loved as much as the original (i'm trying out the k.d.lang cover on deezer right now). i just adore his voice.

Just realizing that the Kodak digital camera I purchased today comes with a USB cable, but no adapter that will connect the cable to the camera.

Ain't that just too cute?? So, you can use the camera, you just can't charge the battery or transfer pictures to the computer.

I feel a vent and rant coming on ....
