    rocky, this was a good idea. you tickled my old dj
    imagination. I wish that I could upload some of the
    "song poems" which my dj alter-ego has put out
    over the past 50 years, like 45 minutes each of
    joanie madden or billy ocean or chicago, classics
    among my close-in friends....

    we call him casper -- out of thin air........ -- j

    p.s. my vote for best voice of the century past:::

    I hate to say, "Oldies, but goodies," since it makes me sound old - but these are greats.

    That said, the mutton chops make my cheeks itch, and what's with the black guitarist with War in the short/shorts? That's just weird.

    Thanks for the memories.

    I don't think it's fantasy in the sense of "it's never going to happen". I just mean people enjoy the notion. The fantasy could come true.

    It's a fantasy in that the collapse of US economy and gov't has not happened yet. I don't mean fantasy in that it certainly will never happen.

    I do think it's a fetish or fanciful notion that crops up again and again. People enjoy the very narrative that the world is becoming hopelessly decadent, the decadence is erased only by total destruction, and Utnapishtim, Noah, or some of the few not participating in the decadence are spared.

    And, possibly the most beautiful, touching piece of music I've ever heard, and certainly what I'd want to listen to at the end of my days (turn up the volume on your speakers....):

    Entends Tu Les Chien Aboyer?

    In jr high I had a huge pair of platforms... with slick bottoms. My junior high was like 5 times longer than it was wide, with classes on the outside, then the library and such on the inside, making a passable racetrack. I used to speedskate from class to class, dodging through traffic, gone before a teacher could chastise me....

    I recommend that you not eat mutton chops anymore. And see an allergist...

    Look whose talking. Ever notice how when the leftists get in charge of the government, Hollywood starts cranking out disaster films? It's like the left loves to watch all our great works destroyed.
