Quarrelsome Prostitutes

I found the text here not quite shocking but definitely surprising.  This was taken a couple years after WWII in Marseilles.

CAPTION:  “IN A PADDY WAGON quarrelsome prostitutes loudly protest against being bundled off to jail. Legal prostitution was abolished in France last year, thus creating an additional enforcement problem for the Marseilles police.”

DJ RESCUE @ Rotture (PDX) FEBRUARY 18

It’s been really neat for “Zia & Kirk” to be asked so often to do our country covers set. I didn’t expect it but I LOVE it. We’ve even added several songs to our repertoire because of it. Anyway, this night will be a fun one to catch us and a few other fun bands. Still working on some details like drink specials and stuff, I’ll keep you posted.

Quality Products

Have you seen this stuff?

Holy Moley. Every DVD I own is basically fukt because of a myriad of scratches.  (I am not anal about media storage).   I worked on The Two Towers for about five minutes with this stuff last night and it actually worked. Whoa.  Who figured this out and why did it take them so long?  Cds and DVDs are almost over.

Um….  Another quality product:

Donate To The Haiti Earthquake Relief Effort

If you have not donated to help the cause in Haiti, you can do so by going to you local Starbucks across the U.S. and Canada. The Starbucks Foundation will join your support by donating one million dollars (U.S.) to the American Red Cross in support of this effort.

UPDATE:

Hey all

Lee here, Dandy’s Manager. Our booking agents organized this Starbucks Haiti Relief donation drive with proceeds to The Red Cross. There are many other charities doing good work as well if you want to donate but don’t have a Starbucks near you or for any reason have political concerns in donating to The Red Cross. For more info on charities that might better appeal to your ability to donate please check out http://www.charitywatch.org/

Morgan’s Run

If you like stories about horrible things happening to good people…well then you have problems.  Or an amazing sense of humor.  I certainly will not be continuing this book but I have flipped thru to see if she lightens up.

Nope.


This book is a Kafka-esque excercise in injustice, a subject I already know plenty about and hopefully will never have to learn much more.

The First Man In Rome

If you dug the miniseries ROME then I highly recommend you find this book.

The First Man in Rome focuses mainly on the rival factions of the Roman senate during the republican years (circa 100bc) and the meteoric rise of Gaius Marcus who was repeatedly named “The First Man in Rome” due to his success as a general during the African revolt and then for defending Rome against the German hoarde.

There’s plenty of “common man” soap opera to keep it, well, common, but damn Colleen McCulloch really did her homework. You’ll learn a lot about how Rome worked as well as how they could eventually bungle it so badly that even an uncouth tribe of filth from the backwaters of europe could finally bring down the eternal city.

But that’s a story for another book…

The Quiet Game

It’s Tom Clancy or Robert Ludlum meets John Grisham.  This writer has the voice and timbre of all those New York Times bestseller dudes, and boy did I just love it.  I think I read about 400 pages in the first sitting.  Damn.  This book is a great ride so, um… Well If you’ve been dreaming of a vacation in, lets say Mississippi, but only have around fifteen bucks….

First Post Of Twenty-Ten

Oh, my old, old friend, my twenty-ten, pull me to your cold cheek again.

I think the big whoop-ti-do over in North Portland on New Years with Brainer and the Upsidedowns and the Sixers was a big success.  I didn’t go, I only attend white-tie masquerades now.  But my Facebook is flooded with pics of the party, like this one I just stole form Upsidedown Jsun.

A NEW YEAR!

Courtney Taylor-Taylor, the leader of this outfit, has a couple of new movie reviews on his page, Pork Chop Hill and Arsenic and Old Lace.

I only saw one movie in theaters over the break, Broken Embraces, and it was great.  I now have a free ticket, because the Regal Club Card has to pay off sometime, and I was going to use it to see, Nine, but I guess everyone says it’s terrible, so now I don’t know what to see.  (Not Avatar.)  Someone let me know if that Clooney flick with the girl from Rocket Science is any good.

SPECIAL NOTE: If you are in Portland this Thursday night, don’t go to some movie show, check out Logan Lynn at Doug Fir. He’s the coolest.

Later, twenty-tenners.

New Years Twenty Ten

If you’re like me, I’m so sorry. No, if you’re like me you have an affinity for New Years, like one-hundred times stronger than with The Christmas.  (Sacrilege.) Because no matter what, I’m always saying to myself “well, that was the worst year ever,” and for once I can just maybe look forward to something not so terrible.  And hey, I’m looking forward to people saying “Twenty-ten” – the thought of not having to hear “two-thousand-and-blah” ad infinitum, I’m pretty damned giddy about that.  Maybe I will even leave the Gothman Estate, go out and venture into the cloud of irresponsible drunkards one more time in observance of this turning of the decade.  Wouldn’t that be something?

Well, if there was any show that would bring out a zombie shut-in, the one cooked up for 31 DEC 09 would be it.

Give me a break.  The World Famous Kenton Club in North Portland will be packed.  Don’t dress like a bum, and maybe take it easy with the sauce.

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.
