I've said that before, tho I cannot recall from whence exactly.
I don't think too much, I just improvise. Could someone describe what this site is about? I bookmarked it awhile ago, under "PicInspiration Blogs" Is it a picture site? BOOOOOOOM! - CREATE * INSPIRE * COMMUNITY * ART * DESIGN * MUSIC * FILM * PHOTO * PROJECTS (I haven't visited it at all in the past six months.)

I just brought the parts into my kitchen to see if I clean them in the sink, but if it gets too messy I'll take them to work on Monday since we have a professional parts cleaner.
The sooty sort of dirt I've had on my hands since fondling the parts seems to easily wash off with mild dish detergent. So I'll try just brushing the parts with that and water. I think the dirt is just mostly oily vapor depositions over time. |

Hey, I was interviewing for the job first! 1835
And I'm sure my shipping costs are miniscule, probably less (meant: free) if I took the [piece(s)] train. Kero? Is it a product, or a person? Kero One

Okay, I was right. He is an underground hip-hop artist.
Also: In 2005, Kero One released the self-produced album, "Windmills of the Soul," which was named the "Best Hip Hop Album of 2006" by Reemix Magazine. In 2007, he opened the office for own Plug Label. In 2009, he released his sophomore album, "Early Believers." ... both albums are now on my ever-expanding wishlist of albums to own. I still have to find that "pajama" CD that BadNick posted in the "visual architectronics" thread. Did I save the name? 1833

Zook, thanks, I'm sure kero would work great. I was also thinking brake cleaner...but first I want to try something easily disposed of like dish detergent. I recall some realiable Dupont data on how even a little spill of oil or kerosene is highly polluting of the local underground water table.
damn, the Aussie's are takin' over! Hi Bijoufem. |

I cant make out the names!
not even in this post 1831 it seems like the link expired... I wonder if I can transfer the image? I'm talking to myself, aren't I? Radio aficionado, Nick: does your local area station carry FoxSportsNews overnights or do you have better luck with the SportingNews? I personally prefer the latter, but the new former is growing on me.

ring: the clingy sheet ones, or the liquid variants?
Also, for those of you that truly know my keen intuition and uncanny knack for finding my coincidences, I researched (finally) the album picture that BadNick posted about 2-and-half-months ago (08/24). the album name is <S> marks the Spot ; artist: Sandwich okay, here is an audible version: track #11 "Selos" (I think the whole album is on youtube; also, I don't know what language this particular tune is sung in, but by the title, I think it is Espanol ~ "selos" means sky, heavens I think, or is it "cielos"? Ah, he said "la luna"... I'm still not sure.) whatever, it's a good song, I think. What I want you to look at is the upload date on youtube: it was uploaded today. It's like I was meant to find it, none other day, no other inspiration, or conversation before this moment, for me to happen upon it. 1831 Weird. The most coincidental man in the world does it again.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_(band)
There's the link above. This is the (abridged) history: Sandwich is a Filipino rock band that was formed in 1995 by Raimund Marasigan and Diego Castillo for the purpose of fulfilling their mutual desire to work together. Castillo recruited former band mates (from The Aga Muhlach Experience) Mike Dizon (of Teeth) to play drums and Myrene Academia to handle bass duties. Marasigan was a judge at a contest where Marc Abaya jammed to a Beastie Boys song with his band, Shirley Beans. He was then recruited by Marasigan to be their vocalist. The album that Nick posted innocuously elsewhere, and I remembered I said I'd look for it, then I did for ten minutes (ago), and I've wound up here. I just can't believe that the entire album (which was released sometime in 2008) was uploaded in its entirety just today, when I had an itch to find out more. I guess music is my thing today. (I just finished watching Almost Famous about two-and-a-half hours ago.) ---------- Post added at 06:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:33 PM ---------- ah, so: I forgot to mention: if I ever say I just completed watching a film, it means I watched it for the first time, and for the most part, I liked it. This is how it shapes up as, now 2-and-a-third years later: Recent Movies click to show

Yeah, I've watched that film maybe four times over, but I never list films that I haven't seen in its entirety, which is why it is absent.
I think I know what happens at the end, but I can never sit through the whole thing. I also noticed I listed Hotel Rwanda twice. now amended. Total films in over 800+ days and counting of tally marks: 219 films I wanted to talk more about the errie linkages of 'Sandwich'. 1829

cool, free placeholder.
Light, stardust, and radiance is what makes up these atoms of being. The eerie bit is that the first track of the album I mentioned maybe five posts above, is my self-professed 1/3 marker of me:

Plot sounds and plays out like Sister Act (1992)
I personally would love to see this film again, especially the first twelve minutes of it: Chan Is Missing (1982) ---------- Post added at 10:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ---------- Oh, wow, if you follow my cartoon affinity thread (and the now-defunct Music Videos thread as well), then you know how much I respect the Library of Congress Continuity Program. Here is something that made me instantly perk up. Chan Is Missing This film was selected to the National Film Registry, Library of Congress, in 1995. ---------- Post added at 10:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 PM ---------- excellent quote - Jo: "This mystery is appropriately Chinese: what's not there seems to have just as much meaning as what is there."

Jet...Mr. Coincidence,
Pretty eerie coincidence about the Sandwich music album. I remember that picture of the girl holding the CD. Since you complained about your internet bandwidth, I wonder if this works for you...it being a live radio link broadcast of SportingNews Sporting News - Radio Is FoxSportsNews a single global entity, or do they have many different localized broadcasts? ...I don't know. ---------- Post added at 01:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:52 AM ---------- WXPN is my favorite radio station that I listen to almost all the time. They have a live feed online at Listen Live One of my favorite shows produced by WXPN is World Cafe which is syndicated to many other stations in the U.S., not sure about worldwide. But NPR offers a podcast of World Cafe here NPR: World Cafe Words and Music from WXPN Podcast : NPR Podcasts |

I inquire because recently my favorite radio station, besides having its format flipped from talk radio to sports talk radio, switched its allegiance from SportingNews Radio to the growing monopoly that has become FoxSportsNews. 1826

I already forgot what I had previously written. While I prefer SportingNews, after being exposed to FoxSports News now day and night for awhile, I found I like what has been referred to as ""possibly the best sports talk show host in America" in Tony Bruno. I also like the "celebration of life through sports", hosted by David Stein (SportingNews). FoxSports is in the major markets, such as Dallas, New York, LA, Philly, and more... it's just a growing monopoly of talking heads muttering about balls, with only a few of them actually having a worthwhile opinion. Man, my first post was much more coherent than this smattering that I'm offering now. 1824 (what?! my token has expired? what does that mean?)

Oh, my first reply went through! Disregard the last then.
Also, the National Film Registry link that I posted previously now has me reinvigored to procure some choice titles to be added to some select threads. Also, so this post doesn't go to waste, 1823, here's a new GIF for your collection, BadNick (and skier, but I don't think he's coming back). robo.jpg (nevermind... the animated pikture was too big)
