    Love the mushie-dance; it's an archetypal springly thing.

    near enough by

    St Mary's of the Angels? Surprising to see a stone church standing: more Chchch eyes.

    Music was a form of time travel then and a kind of ticket to worlds we didn’t know about.

    Well put. Some of us went and found the worlds once we knew they existed. I found Transformer via a soldier with a big British bike in the Kiwi Gothick suburbs and a bottle or two of foul liquor. About as far away from the wild side as you can get. So I went looking.

    Yeah all that was crap; the itch to edit made my finger twitch. The last three paragraphs was the good part.

    Laurie Anderson’s piece from the heart is touching; doing the form with his hands as he was dying.

    Whenever I’ve read more recent Lou Reed pieces (not much because the music was always the thing with me) I had the sense he would wearily put on his Lou Reed armour then take it off in the garage at home before going inside. His journey as person interests me more than the endless who-did-who-and-what tales. That he was a genuine tai chi master makes sense given his past. This guy (discounting the self-puff) seems to have got close to capturing Lou in the last quarter century;

    Not sure I could have concentrated if Lou was doing the form next to me!

    Greg Jackson has woken long enough to broadcast from his couch:

    "Lou was a reporter; a chronicler of his times. He was the Dickens of smack."

    9. Matthew Hooton not only labels this National Government 'centre-left', but he also argues that John Key has presided over 'active continuation of [Helen Clark's] "communism by stealth" policies'.

    And this: barking.

    The claim about Key's office being involved with the Brown fiasco doesn't tally with the previously polished performances of the central spin machine. Seems more likely to be an attempt by the real culprits to pin the tail on another donkey (no pun intended).

    Been playing, need more time.

    Fun eh? I like the way B/w transforms what could be a pretty colour scene into this photo that has a funereal solemnity.
    I'm finding that navigation is the main challenge with Lightzone; the operations are reasonably intuitive, as mentioned earlier in the thread. I now need to put some time in on understanding each function (in between everything).

    One cat calls for another. First result with Lightzone.
