What was I thinking?

Oh yeah...It's 2006.

I got a new calander.

It's got quaint black n' white photos
of people in France.

Maybe I'll have a quaint year.

sigh.

2006.

hmmm...I'm listening to a recording of peter gabriel
talking about his dad and his baby.
it was in a book out on the dollar cart.
The book is written in polish or czech.
so...I can't read it...sigh.

hmmm...peter gabriel has a kind voice
much different than when he's singing.

Oh wait...i guess that was Robert Fripp.
Now it's Adrian Belew talking about crayons.

And nowAnneke van Giersbergen.

I guess this disk is a bunch of musicians
talking...they are choosing their
words carefully and being thoughtfully reflective
and sincere...i like that...careful sincerity.

and the accents...i love the accents.

the way that guy just said "Bruvver"
my hero, Michael Stipe talking about
commerce sounding wired on adreneline(sp?)

lou reed doing impressions
and leaving long...pauses...here...and
there..."as much as I could...is that slow
or is that fast? Da...da...da...da...da...da..da.
once/i/pondered/weak/and/weary
no scotch no cigars

mark knopfler sounding sleepy
talking about falling asleep playing
and being lazy
ropert plant listing things
talking about time.

Steve Hogart talking about magic
and counting...sat-A-lights...and Britney
Spears.

"Yeah, you bet I am"
oh Iggy!!
I think I stood next to you
in the history section.

sigh...quelle an...tout le temps

Porquepine(sp?) tree?

fly...fly...or dumbo (DUMBO?)

where are we going?

Will there be prizes?

Who IS driving?
