Australian band. I've not followed them much at all, but the song that helped them break-in wasn't bad:

ok, so possibly less subversive than i originally thought. but i like that song. (trumpet, scratch dj, and a babyfoot, all in the same video ! is that the trifecta ?)

Right now I am mourning the departure of The Loved One for a couple of days, though with far less grief this time, since he showed me how the espresso machine works this morning. I've decided that, after making tomorrow morning's cups for myself, I shall Zany Carter myself into such a mind-altering incoherently enervated ecstasy of illumination that Kundalini will complain about all the light and the noise, grab his chakras and burst through the top of my skull like a busted and ignited gas main. The hope is that, in the process, the previous 24 hours of memory will be cleansed in the holy fire, and when the Loved One returns and asks for a cuppa I can say "Oh, sorry, I've forgotten how to" and thus keep getting coffee in bed every morning.

Cheers,
Marc

that's a devious plan... but isn't that what you do *every* time ?

Well, everything except the bit about learning how to use the espresso machine. Normally, the degradation of my caffeinated proclivity combined with my ignorance debases me to such an extent of desperation that I have, in the past, been forced to make and imbibe....instant coffee.

~shudder~

...but, yeah, sure. There's nothing like an evening of Zany Carters and bad 80's music to clean out your chakras.

Cheers,
Marc

Instant coffee???!!?!!!?!! Blasphemer! You WILL burn at the stake! Heathen!

As for what I'm doing right now, just got into work, having a cafe latté and trying to keep up with all the new posts from the night, you people are WAY to active

It's worse than you think, Zee, because RIGHT NOW, Lefty is alone, morose, blowing his nose on your new T-shirts, because Hugo has run off with a tawdry 80's "leg warmer" named Bernice who claims she was an extra in Flashdance.

Oh wow.... I really want to know where this one will end up... Should have been it's own thread

"The Adventures of Zelda_Pinwheels intrepid socks, Hugo and Lefty"

Put topics in their own thread? In the LOUNGE? Silly, silly Slite. What's the fun in that?

oh, yes please ! (what are you waiting for, taylor ???)

(no need to start a new thread, just continue the story.)

Taylor514ce · 09-24-2008, 09:17 AM

How can I continue the story? These are your socks! What are you going to do about Lefty? He's useless without Hugo. He's already talking about defenestration, or becoming a cover for a 7-iron. You've even caught him talking to lint, making little dollies and calling them "Lefty" in his best Hugo voice, bossing them around, calling them disparaging names.

And what about Hugo? He needs to be saved from himself, and you know, despite your tough love stance with Hugo, that saving him is YOUR job. All his rough talk about how Lefty is holding him back, weighing him down, is just that: talk. In his own way, he needs Lefty as much as Lefty needs him. What's going to happen when Bernice kicks him to the curb, as is inevitable? Are you really going to leave him out there, an unmatched sock, slumped on a sidewalk in Saint-Denis?

I'm fighting off a cold and getting ready to testify in two commitment hearings. Fun times!
