ZOMG, the greatest thing arrived in the mail today. We still get all the catalogues for previous tenants and today's was from Drysdales. Serial, the entire thing is made of win - there will be a shitfight over who gets to bring/send it home for Christmas.

Here is a brief selection to whet your appetites...

Boots

The witch is dead - by D.Boy.

ding dong the witch is dead, she came in heels and we took her head. Ding dong mecka’s fed, he came from asia and we ate his rice. Dice. No- I think the meat was actually mice. Ding dong systems red. Went up north and joined the commy scum, dum diddi dum didi dum, systems red, meckas fed – and by dingo the witch is dead. I saw a poster of Retzie up on the wall, by god she was tall, and someone said – nice cans. I think the girl has some fans, of her cans, they said. Systems red, meckas fed and retzie has good cans I said, dum didi dum didi dum didi do. Then came Bonsai behind the decks, looking like one of Jerry’s yanky red necks. One the floor he tore a limb, and we just chucked it in the bin. Systems dead, Meckas fed, Retzie has nice cans they said, and Bonsaiis missing one of his most leftist legs and don’t forget that witch is dead Dum didi dum didi dum diiiiidiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii doooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

you'll be fine once you are there, but you can't help the nerves. i was hell nervous before i went o/s. thankfully being tired from the plane trip eases the nerves once you get there and you just seem to float about getting to where you have to get too. i found that anyways. total space cadet when i landed in the UK for my first part of the trip

just take it all in and take lots and lots of photos!!! i still look at my photos from Europe and reminisce :D

In a tragic incident that is becoming all too common, one of my clients accidentally overdosed on motivational wankery on the weekend. The results were terrifying and should serve as a reminder to all that there is no safe level of bullshit. Don't mess with this stuff... it can screw you up!

(quoted verbatim from my inbox)
Team

Thanks for the updated Action Plan. I will confirm tomorrow after the Alliance Management Team Meeting of the agreed cut-off date.

Whilst this may seem like a heavy burden there is a lot a stake from a project perspective on this issue. With a ‘Can Do’ attitude, and enjoying the ‘awesome experience’ (i.e. celebrate our successes) we should be able to achieve this by being ‘proud and courageous’ and ensure ‘complete satisfaction’! We haven’t disappointed to date so ‘let’s keep true to ourselves’ and deliver on our promise!

No interest. People are just waiting around to be told what the next big thing is. Admittedly for something to rise through a sub culture and become that next big thing there has to be a level of appeal, or genius, or depth to the creativity, or capturing of a moment – but in general I have no interest in getting on a wave that is already crowded. I find myself underneath the water, scavenging through the shells on the bottom for other bits and pieces, that instead of showing themselves above the surface as masses of movement that attract the attention of many, are shinning away in the depths, themselves a little bit of brilliance. I gain so much more enjoyment in having a relationship with that shinning object on my own, not needing to share it with everyone else, than I do when I am part of a huge united scream.

It is just a difference between people – some people need to have that shared feeling, others don’t. I am sure what ever this new things is great, and has depth of it’s own. I just don’t care about it. I’ve got this dope shell in my pocket im enjoying at the moment, happy with that. Iz ok.

twilight- its for kids! bored housewives who need to feel like there is something darker, something unkown, some men out there who are eternally vicious and dead, but of course hot...
for tweens who feel out of place, to let them know that in fact, they could walk the earth with the dead and dont even know it.

the swedish film 'let the right one in' is a true vampire flick, scary, ethereal and somehow beautfiul in the destruction...
highly reccommend...

twilight is marketing genuis - merchandising rape - but thats it.

if you wanna read cool stuff about Vampires you should read The Informers by Bret Easton Ellis and in particular chapter 10 - its awesome. 8)

Image

Chapter 10 - The Secrets of Summer

Chapter 10 is narrated by Jamie. He picks up an underage girl from a bar, takes her home and has sex prior to "bleeding"--biting, but not necessarily killing—her. Throughout the story, it is implied that Jamie and his friends are vampires. Jamie, during intercourse and after getting a taste of blood, describes his facial features as hideous and very much not human. (It is implied that he changes his appearance during sex). He sleeps in a coffin, which has the various materialistic necessities of a twentieth century life (TV, stereo, etc.), and suffers a horrible experience when he sucks the blood of a doped-up girl only to discover that she was high on heroin, which causes him to trip.

At one point, the protagonist passes by a billboard on Sunset reading "Disappear Here" (a trademark line used by Ellis). Also, Jamie continuously makes rude Ethiopian jokes throughout the entire story, signaling which of the people he's interacting with are his friends and which aren't. His friends always get his jokes and find them hilarious; the girls he picks up, generally—unintelligent and stereotypical of Los Angeles youth—do not, and some find them offensive.

Jamie visits his friend Dirk, who is apparently also into a similar lifestyle as him and Miranda. Dirk, however, tends to kill his victims, while Jamie is often implied to leave them alive. He hopes that there will be fresh meat at Dirk's place and is not disappointed. Body bags and blood are scattered everywhere throughout the apartment, but the two young men are fairly apathetic and mention everything in an offhand way between sips of Coronas. A friend, Roderick, is brought up. It's noted that his ashes were found at his place, at the bottom of his pool, along with a wooden stake crafted out of a baseball bat and covered with Lawry's garlic powder. Dirk doesn't wish to talk about it as it is a reminder they can be killed. The two boys watch television, but Jamie can't concentrate as the smells of fresh blood flowing from the next room over are giving him the munchies. He tries to sneak in, but is told not to by Dirk because the body isn't dead yet.

In the last section, Jamie goes to visit his psychiatrist, whom he asks for more Darvocet. Jamie asks the doctor more questions than the doctor asks him, and it is unclear whether or not Jamie is merely suffering from psychotic episodes or is really the vampire and killer he claims to be. Regardless, Jamie is shown to be an unreliable first person narrator, like many of Ellis' protagonists.
