crazy client in Spanish backpack


Can you believe this???thanks to PRAVDA we are all kept in the loop about TATU. These girls just love to confuse us with their crazy but cute ways. This is straight from my fave online newspaper."In a video to All About Us from TATU's new album Dangerous and Moving, young mother Yulia Volkova plays a prostitute killing her client. The video is very natural, and it is much better than the previous TATU videos. Yulia and Lena's message says "we are wicked, we are cruel and we are heterosexual." Wow, I cannot wait to rush down to my local Blockbusters and grab a copy for me and my relatives...great Christmas pressy...anyway this has nothing to do with this fantastic track..but that is life...here is one fab moment...take time to blast this through your ears and live a little more intensely

"There is a sense of self-possession about her that seems more a matter of temperament than influence. Welch is adopted. Her mother, Mitzie, who is a singer, says she is surprised that Welch became a performer, because performers, in her experience, always have a need to please, and her daughter doesn’t seem to. " from an article I read in the New Yorker recently.
Here is a Bruce moment.Bruce Springsteen turned 56 on Friday [Sept 23]. It has been a long, successful slog over 34 years since he started in 1971.HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND KEEP ON ROCKIN. ...I am off to Spain next week and this guy will be in my backpack...he has been with me since 1975 and i go no where without him....

fish stop cowboy


It seems truckers these days are not really up for a chip and steak pie fest The healthy options for truckers include:
Soup of the day • Selection from salad buffet • Choice of smoked and marinated fish • Low-calorie fish dish • Two vegetarian dishes • Choice of six main courses with vegetables • Daily roast • Selection of fresh fruitNo extra burger or two on the side..my image of the truckstop cowboy has changed into a salad and lowcal kinda chap..this is his prefered menu whilst whizzing down the highway...no more little white lines and Preparation H..
So in celebration of truckers everywhere here is Dave Dudley with one of the best known tracks..

german guns whip axels


What do you laugh at??? Seemingly this is the joke which received the highest global rating - submitted by 31-year-old psychiatrist Gurpal Gosall from Manchester - "Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn’t seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed.
"The other guy whips out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps: ‘My friend is dead! What can I do?’ The operator says: ‘Calm down, I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.’
"There is a silence, then a shot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: ‘OK, now what?’"
I did think it was indeed funny, but I also liked this one that seemingly appeals to folks from Ireland, the UK, Australia and New Zealand . Patient: "Doctor, I’ve got a strawberry stuck up my bum." Doctor: "I’ve got some cream for that!"
Talking of guns howzabout an classic from way back in 1999 when ,gibson and marshall were peices of kit rather than kids names.
Guns and Roses Sweet Child of Mine mp3
I do like this band and having just come back from a week in Germany and driving fast down the autobahn somehow a clutch of Hank and Willie just didn't cut it...and of course this lot sounded fantastic.

vibrate that trailer honey


Whilst journeying across the vast space of the internet I came upon a great site called simply fired.Some of the stories are really funny. A young man whose college job was delivering furniture for a major retailer lost it for this surreal reason. Once he and his colleague had to replace the old furniture and suddenly found the adult toys. They ended up sword fighting with two large vibrators. In the middle of the battle the client and her husband walked in and caught them fighting. They called their manager at once and the two “fighters” were terminated from their jobs. It is worth a look and you can post up any stories of your own.
In celebration here is a fab piece of action with jack daniels and yes jesus and a vibrator. Nobody does it quite like the Donna Honeys.

dance horses on barefoot beach


Time to remember how good this track was and of course still is. Play LOUD and OFTEN.
Patti Smith Dancing Barefoot live mp3
I have seen her twice at least 30 years apart and I was still as much of a fan as ever when she took the stage at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow a few years back. I saw her first at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh way back when..in the 1970's..if you have any of the albums..dig them out and have a blast....nothing like Horses, Redondo Beach and Because the Night to make life seem worthwhile..if you ever had any doubts..

void into hell and spurt raves


Looking for something punkerama and highland as well. Kind of difficult, and had to resort to some old stuff...no kilts or bare arses, just love coming in spurts...courtesy of Richard Myers aka Richard Hell known as the frontman of The Voidoidst .The title track (a play off of Rod McKuen's 1959 spoken-word song Beat Generation) to the frantic energy of the anti-romantic anthem, "Love Comes in Spurts"was one of my fave raves back when vinyl was the material of choice..
