Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

Hey, congratulations, Jon!

and I like MIA, although I suspect she's a bit of an arse IRL.

Are you ready to be strong?

I edited a piece a couple weeks ago by someone who went to an M.I.A. concert and loved it, then remembered that years ago, when M.I.A. was shooting a documentary of an Elastica tour, she tried to get the writer to strip on camera and was kind of aggressive and creepy and manipulative about it.

Yeah. I have a kind of knee-jerk prejudice against the world she emerges from; she's so obviously a product of the west london trustafarian style mag scene of the '90s that I find her whole refugee pose pretty risible. But the album rocks, and the piracy Funds terrorism mix is even better.

Ann, that's a ferret.

And if not, who'll stop the rain?

if nothing else, you can always Blame it on the Rain.

Can you stand the rain?

On my window? No way. Falling on my head? Eh, why not.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Can you stand the rain?

Red rain, sure.

I like singing in the rain, myself.

Though I hate when it rains on Prom night.

I still prefer to Blame it on the Bossa Nova, or Cain.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain coming down on a sunny day?
