Drinking Games with the King of Beans

Drinking Games with the King of Beans

I discovered Erik Satie while in college. The music seemed perfectly fit for such strange and brightly-colored cartoon mornings, rainy afternoons, very sad and lonely drunken nights. Perfectly fit for a dude who felt out of time with himself, a mishmash of incomplete angles and ideas, a dance party, a moonlit walk along a muddy trail, a stranger, a desperate fuck.

Heinlein in Hollywood

Heinlein in Hollywood

<I>The Space Review</I> has published an interesting look at Heinlein's collaborations with filmmakers. You've got to love an article that contains lines like this: "To the extent that such an awful piece of filmmaking can actually have a message, <I>Rocketship X-M</I> has a shallow and not terribly original message that nuclear war is bad for children and other living things. The universe is hostile, God hates us, and we’re all doomed. Have a nice day."

Subscription RENEWAL

Well, I just re-duped for 2 mo' years. Stereophile says I is impotent, it gave me 24 issues for the price of under $20. Yet I received an e-mail "special offer" 3 years for slightly mo' than $35.!! It is a better deal to go to the sub renewal page, directly, not the special offer sent to me. I don't think the specail offer was a scam, just screwey. Ever gonna review Helix from Legacy, I'm sure this system will smoke any one they ever tested, is that what they are afraid of, B&W, Wilson and a few others are big advertisers. HELIX baby.

May Issue Has Arrived!

Ha, I got mine early this month. She was a welcome sight too. It rained all day here and I got soaked off and on. Driving home, all I wanted was a hot cup of coffee and some audio relaxation. But, I enjoyed the hearth and home just a little more with the latest issue as a welcome surprise.

In a previous thread I had mentioned that I was going to get one of those Oppo players to replace the dead player in our bedroom and report back as to whether or not it really sounds worth a hoot. Well, Wes beat me to the punch in the May issue.
