| Werner Herzog is in town |
[Jan. 14th, 2007|11:19 pm] |
I met Werner Herzog on friday.
Around 17 of his works will be shown over town in the following weeks (orginal prints and everything).
Today I kicked off this retrospective with Kaspar Hauser. Which is a genius film. |

I graduated like a motherfucker.
Master in Computer Science, after four years. Graduated with great distinction and a 19/20 for my thesis. A professor and a post-doc told me they could use people like me at the university, drop them a line if I was interested. I already registered for film school, and it's hard for me to be enthusiastic for Phd work. If I had to support myself, I'd stay at university. But now I've got the sense I could come back in a few (up to 4 hopefully) years time. Do I pursue my dreams or dive into cold reality? |

I feel like flipping a coin. Heads means moving to Beirut, tails is for moving to Shanghai. If I can't find a coin I go live in Tijuana and decapitate anybody there named Alfredo Garcia. |

Dear Santa...
Dear Santa,
This year I've been busy!
In November I put money in mr_e_2_me's expired parking meter (14 points). Last Saturday I bought porn for withanl (-10 points). Last Wednesday twotimegrime and I robbed a bank (-50 points). In March I gave psycho_in_308 a kidney (1000 points). In February I gave parma_violets a life-saving blood transfusion (50 points).
Overall, I've been nice (1004 points). For Christmas I deserve a toy train!
Sincerely, joe_spinell |
I don't remember giving any of these things away, I must've been drunk! Suffices to say, I want my money, my life-saving blood & kidney, and most importantly my porn BACK NOW YOU FUCKERS! |

There's this television show on Belgian alternative television, called Reynebeau & Rotten, in which John Lydon of Sex Pistols fame and a skinny, cross-eyed Belgian historian travel the UK in search for what makes the country great. The programme kind of falls flat in that it mostly plays like a lame, touristy, educational show; though the chemistry between the two of these opposite characters is great, and Lydon especially seems like a great fellow.
Anyhow, inspired by the seeming greatness of Lydon, I did a little background research on him, and as a result I've got This is not a Love Song playing in my head on endless repeat.
Enjoy :

I went for a walk around the city today. Had my camera with me, took a number of pictures. Can you tell where I've been?
( Some hard, some easy. ) |

I've been slamming doors here, and throwing the remote control around the living room. Ditto with big nuts that I threw around with all the force in my skinny little arms - I should count myself lucky I didn't break anything in the house. Exclamated lots of God damning and other expletives too. Argh!
But why, Esc, why this rage? Trivial reason, you'll even laugh, it's - haha, hoho - my dad's snoring. No biggie, there are worse problems on the face of the earth, lots of kids who don't even have dads. Still, the idea of not being able to watch any DVD in peace, until I have my own appartment in five or so years from now, is quite maddening. I gave up on The Manson Family after around 15 minutes, i.e. as soon as my dad's orchestral manoeuvres in the dark started.
'Studies have shown that there is a psychological component in snoring which causes discomfort in any listener.'
Interesting.
I'm not going to bring up the issue with my father, seeing that I don't want to be responsible for putting him through surgery, or even for making him sleep with plastic shit in his mouth, or nose clips or whatever.
I really wanted to watch a movie tonight though :( |
