Keaton Henson “You Don’t Know How Lucky You Are”
I recently discovered this singer/songwriter, and I still can’t shake this song. I found the video for this song today and I’m not sure how I feel about the video. One thing I do love is it reminds me of a Monet painting my art history teacher showed today.
I will say he reminds me of Jeff Buckley and Elliott Smith which are two of my favorites.
Ice Cream & Flowers
Mmm, I’m loving this floral ice cream shoot from Kinfolk Magazine. Warmer weather means signs of life. Spring, you have my number.
I’m Back
MGS reached out like a mensch and asked me back. I’m not sure my own flesh & blood would’ve invited me back after two years of silence, but that’s what always made Clusterflock special, wasn’t it?
Here’s to you survivors, who wouldn’t give up on this beautiful experiment. Cheers!
Yes, please
These massive exchanges of electricity require wrist-thick cabling under the [Mercedes-Benz] SLS’s mile-long hood, but they also make driving an ostentatious supercar eerily silent. So to give the people what they want, there’s a menu in the Comand system dubbed “eSound” that emits a fabricated soundtrack worthy of Brian Eno through the car’s 11 speakers. It’s a sort of an atmospheric augmentation that layers over the inherent whines and whirs created by the electric drivetrain.

I might wear underwear if a facsimile of this record embroidered on sheer nylon was sewn to it.

Snowed-In Sunday
We have dug out the drive. We now have martinis. Dan’s in the bath. I’m watching this on Netflix:
I’m reminded once Daryl said something about digging when he gets mad. So I’m thinking of Daryl. And Cindy. And y’all.

No dogue de Bordeaux (so far today). Let’s not mention it.
Aganetha Dyck: Honeycomb Sculptures
To encourage the honeybees to communicate, Dyck strategically adds wax or honey, propolis or hand-made honeycomb patterns to the objects prior to placing them into their hives. After the bees start building honeycombs over the object, Dyck would coax them into specific shapes by adding or deleting wax.

How our day is going
Daryl: They should make pussy-flavored chips.
Cindy: I don’t think most people are all that crazy about the taste of pussy.
Daryl: They would be if it was on chips.

Scarfolk Council
Scarfolk is a town in North West England that did not progress beyond 1979. Instead, the entire decade of the 1970s loops ad infinitum. Here in Scarfolk, pagan rituals blend seamlessly with science; hauntology is a compulsory subject at school, and everyone must be in bed by 8pm because they are perpetually running a slight fever. “Visit Scarfolk today. Our number one priority is keeping rabies at bay.” For more information please reread.

IT’S MADE FROM STUFF
Soylent is definitely a permanent part of my diet. Right now I only eat one or two conventional meals a week, but if I had any money or a girlfriend I would probably eat out more often. I’m quite happy with my bachelor chow. I don’t miss the rotary telephone and I don’t miss food.

Dear Clusterflock
At what point in your life did you realize that you’re probably never going to be as healthy/attractive/happy/etc. as you once were? Did you have the presence of mind to realize it at the time? Or have you somehow avoided this altogether (i.e. you’re under 30)?
I had my doubts at 30, but now I’m pretty sure I’m officially on the decline. Nothing drastic, but it’s like when you realize your new car isn’t a new car anymore. Except you can’t save up for a new one, or even take out a foolish auto loan.
RIP Jason Molina
Jason Molina of Songs: Ohia and Magnolia Electric Co. passed away on March 16. Very sad.

The next time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as significantly as this one. I mean, I know it was my option to read, but I in fact thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear can be a bunch of whining about something which you could fix if you happen to werent too busy searching for attention.
