p.s. Hey. Have we ever had a country music post before? I can't remember. Seems like we must have, and yet ... Guessing not, that ice is fully and gloriously broken now thanks to scribe-plus and d.l. Chris Dankland. Don't be scared. I streamed his playlist a few days ago, and I am a bettered, savvier, person consequently. Nice videos and pix too. You can't lose, so don't, and thank you. Big up and hugs and a deep bow to boot to you, Chris! ** David Ehrenstein, You've got to love an escort who invents words. It's one of the signs of purchasability. ** Bill, Hi. Yeah, I thought maybe he's in a band or something and is looking to serve double-duty while he's on the road? Literally where do I find them? I think there about 15 escort sites I check monthly at the moment. The most fruitful tends to be gayromeo. Would imagine catharsis is the least Swans can do. Get expunged! Let the right one out! ** Scunnard, Hi, J. Yeah, the post-something-big wobble. I think I know what you mean even big time. I see your wish of luck, and double it. ** Steevee, Hi. Is that the actor who played Dammer in a movie about Dahmer? I don't think I saw it. Luckily, Dammer wasn't my friend's type and luckily he didn't find being stalked sexy. ** Kier, Hi, hi, hi, Kier! Ha ha. Silje deserves to have a fairytale written about her. Good to see you, pal! Uh, I'll give you the highlights of things I can remember about the last days 'cos it has blurred as a whole. Mostly working on the sound-mix of Zac's and my film. It's sounding crazy great now, and we should be finished early next week. It seems pretty certain that we weren't selected for Cannes, which isn't a surprise at all, but it would have been cool. On to the next. I also spent a lot of time and stress trying to nail down a new apartment. Man, the hoops I've been told to jump through, fuck. Anyway, barring the unforeseen, one hour from now I will sign the contract for a year's rent on a new place. Otherwise, uh, I did a birthday brunch with/for Gisele and select friends. Then we went to a performance festival at Palais de Tokyo. The performances were really bad, but being there is alway fun. Zac and I went to the opening of the annual Nouveau Festival at the Centre Pompidou -- Gisele and I co-curated it one year -- last night, and, as has been the case the last few times, it just gets lazier and less exciting ever year. It used to be really fun. Now it's just like a bad art show. I forget what else. Really, it's almost entirely been film work and trying to find an apartment. So, you ... today... ? How did you guys get along? ** _Black_Acrylic, That would be very cool. Fingers crossed. ** Zach, Hey, man! Really good to see you! In an interestingly non-computer way? That sounds fresh. Things are really busy with me, but good. I have to move by the end of the month. Huge drag. Huge organizing and cleaning and stuff to do. That's weighing on me, but everything else is pretty great, I must say. And with you? ** Keaton, I'm always in a French film mood, I think. Sweet. Every Van Sant movie? You are a forgiving soul or something. Thanks! ** Misanthrope, I think if RP had been in the film he might have demanded changes to the script to x-out the dumb shit, and that certainly would have improved matters. But who knows. Okay, that's trippy: the mom-killing bad tennis player who wanted to play you. For some reason, his being a bad player and wanting to play is the most interesting part to me. And to play you. I wonder what you represented to him? Maybe you should write him in prison and ask. Pre-internet, 'little' murders like that were locals only. ** Sypha, Hi, James. Swampiness is understandable. Meet too. Ooh, that post about your book is a must, if you don't mind. Thank you, and I hope the swamp recedes soon. ** Okay. Spend your day listening up and using our eyesight as Chris hopes you will, please? I'll see you tomorrow.
