random aimlessness

i spent the day decked out in a suit, hopping from mall to mall in the northern suburbs



it was hot, crazy hot and i had a suit on,



navy pin stripe suit with a sky blue shirt

my "asking-for-money" getup.

so i landed at three different exclusive books, picked up a self help book about winning ways

and then put it down,

i picked up the latest mandela book, "letters to myself", and found myself engrossed.



the man is who they say he is, even in most quietest of moments.

bought a schwarma and ate it sitting on a bench next to man wearing a zcc badge.

we said hello, sat for 20 min, and then said goodbye with nothing else said in between

of love of airports

i love the airport, and not for a love of travel. the airport is like sex, it serves to heighten whatever emotions one may already have, brings things into focus. so if you love someone and you two consummate that love, whatever love there is is magnified by sex. if you two suffer a chasm and you have sex, that chasm is heightened.

so the airport is similar in some sense, in that it's so full of unambiguous emotion, people tend to forget themselves in their "goodbyes" and their "hellos".

anyway. the above video is a song by dan auerbach, a song i love. love in that crazy way people love things that make them feel melancholy, if not sad. beyond that, beyond it all, i really do Just love the song

the delfonics

this is probably the most sampled group in the nineties. the delfonics were the real OGs, everything from the fugees "ready or not" to silks, "for the love i gave to you" to "summertime" by jazzy jeff and the fresh prince.

their songs have been used extensively in film soundtracks, the most notable being Quentin Tarantino's 1997 movie Jackie Brown, in which "La-La (Means I Love You)" and "Didn't I Blow Your Mind" underscore the pivotal relationship between Pam Grier and Robert Forster. the film helped create a borderline cult following for the songs and this group.

the cure for it all

i've been listening to "Symphony Of Sorrowful Songs Symphony No. 3", Henryk Gorecki.



oi

coldplay - see you soon

memory is a bitch, she persists

for moustache lovers, who also love type

floating on the innerwebs
