Outside World

Can you hear me now?

The world outside

Was my first album

When I was 15

Not so long ago

1975

open fields

and sunflowers

the education was flowing

the ideas were growing

but I was never much

for the outside world

“The world outside is so cruel”

I sang in 1975

When I was 15

With Ingmar Bergman on TV

Drivin’ Pennsylvania

Drivin’ Pennsylvania

Oh Yeah

It’s a sweet, sweet place

On the interstate

Lots of rolling hills

No need for sleeping pills

Away from the hustle

Away from the bustle

A smooth and easy ride

In the countryside

From Bordentown to Gettysburg and back

Remember it well, but I had forgotten all about that. I don't think I've done any movies since that first one, and the PBR event.

PBR - A World of Contrast
1st event : cold and snowy
2nd event: sweltering heat and humidity

Do you have recordings, Joe??

FUNNY THING ---

DO YOU REMEMBER___ a recent transmission
where I mentioned ABBA's Bakery Truck tooling down the highway??

Well the front cover of Benny's album
is a black and white photo of a bus or bakery truck tooling
down a back country lane (in SWEDEN)
with the words BENNY ANDERSSON'S ORKESTRA written in white.

This morning I noticed the writing had a white line pointing to the bus/bakery truck.

IT IS SO GOOD TO BE IN TUNE :)

In that same neighborhood, I'm a big fan of Värttinä
Finnish (I think) folk tunes, with lovely vocal chorals.

Still awaiting Brad's answer.

In the meantime,
latest purchase is BENNY ANDERSSON'S ORKESTRA
made entirely in SWEDEN with SWEDISH liner notes.

I heard some of it coming into work today.

It's mainly traditional SWEDISH folk music with accordions and violins and a few vocals
in SWEDISH.

A very relaxing album reminiscent of my GERMANIC upbringing.

VIVA SVENSKA!!!!

Have you considered broadcasting some of the Iranian protest satellite TV broadcast
such as NITV (see news article below) or the channel broadcasting the Shah's son.

I encourage you to continue broadcasting international feeds from the world's hotspots like your broadcasts of recent Pakistan and Indian and Russina and Chinese television.

Greetings fellow New Jersians:

Went for a walk with the wife around the block last night and
got all ate up from the skeetters while looking at a neighbors
impressive Japanese style fish pond.

He must have had 14 fish in that pond.

Then we ran into some neighbors who have teenage visitors from Puerto Rico.

Then we met up with the next door neighbors who told us about their hole in the
pool liner adventures.

Then we met up with a neighbor who just adopted 2 Russian babies.

And finally we ran into a neighbor who did a great landscaping job in his front yard to
gussy his place up. His wife, son, daughter-in-law and 3 kids. Oooooooooops
another one on the way, live with him.

We scampered home to the youngin's and then on to pick up two
teenage youth who are staying with us for a few days while their parents
are away in AC.

Next week Anne and the Kids are away to AC to sing for the DARE convention.

And then Anne and I go up to Allentown, PA to file a deposition
for the wacky guy who won't fill his lake in the poconos.

Then the in-laws from Colorado invade the joint for a week.

Then sweet freedom after July 1 and on to GETTYSBURG July 3-6,
although the main reason for going was the 140th re-enactment of the
event and it has been postponed until August, but we're goin' anyway.

I think I just made a blog entry.

Either that or somebody added something to the compost pile.

PRAISE JESUS!!!!
FOLLOW GOD, NOT MAN.

...and have a great day ...

A broken land
A broken idea
A sorry time
Filled with images

Echoing sounds

With more space
And less ideas
And less blood
Your teeth hurt
And they should be kinder

saving truth.

and forever. Amen.

Covenant, bestowed by God upon His people of Israel
through Moses:

I am the Lord your God; you shall have no other gods
but Me.
R: Lord, incline our hearts to keep this law.

P: You shall not make to yourself any graven image, nor
the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in
the earth beneath, or in the water under the earth;
you shall not bow down to them nor worship them.
R: Lord, incline our hearts to keep this law.

P: You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in
vain.
R: Lord, incline our hearts to keep this law.

P: Remember the Sabbath Day and keep it Holy.

the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Hear what our Lord Jesus Christ said to His followers
of the New Covenant:

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,
and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is

bless You for our creation, preservation, the natural
wonders surrounding us, and all of the blessings
of this life. We thank You, above all, for Your
priceless love and the redemption of the world by
our Lord Jesus Christ. And we pray You, give us
that due sense of all Your mercies, so that our
hearts may be abundantly thankful, and that we
show forth Your praise, not only with our lips, but
in our lives, by giving ourselves to Your glorious

love You, and worthily magnify Your holy
name, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

THE GENERAL CONFESSION

P: Beloved in the Lord, the Scripture directs us in many
places to acknowledge our transgressions and harmful
ways. If we say we are innocent of any wrongdoing,
the truth is not in us, for all have strayed and fallen
short of the glory of God. But, we have an
advocate with the Father, our Saviour Jesus Christ. If
we confess our imperfections, He is faithful and just
to forgive us, and cleanses us from all unrighteousness.
Therefore, I pray and urge you, as many as are
present, to accompany me with a pure heart to the
throne of the heavenly grace, saying:
R: Almighty Father, Lord of heaven and earth, we
confess that we have sinned against You, voluntarily
and involuntarily, in thought, word, and
deed; known and unknown; by day and by night.
Have mercy and forgive us all, O God, after Your
great goodness, according to the multitude of
Your mercies, do away with our offenses, and
cleanse us from our transgressions, for Jesus
Christ’s sake. Amen.

THE ABSOLUTION

P: Our Lord Jesus Christ has bestowed power and commandment
to His ministers to declare and pronounce
to those who are truly repentant, absolution and
remission of sin. Therefore, may Jesus Christ absolve
you of your sins in the name of the Father, and of the
Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

KYRIE

P: Lord have mercy
R: Christ have mercy.
P: Lord have mercy

All stand THE LORD’S PRAYER

P: And now, as our Saviour Jesus Christ has taught, let
us pray:
R: Our Father in heaven; Holy be Your name, Your
kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is
in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and
forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.
Do not let us enter into temptation, and deliver us
from evil.
P: Deliver us Lord from all harm, and grant us peace in
our lives. In Your mercy, keep us free from temptation
and protect us from all distress as we wait in joyful
hope for the coming of our saviour, Jesus Christ.
R: For Yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the
glory forever. Amen.

P: Peace to you;
R: And to your spirit.

THE PROFESSION OF FAITH

P: Let us acknowledge our faith as set forth by the
Creed of the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ:
R: I believe in God the Father Almighty, creator of
heaven and earth;

I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit,
and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under
Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was
buried.

On the third day He rose from the dead. He
ascended into heaven, and is seated on the right
hand of the Father. He shall come again to judge
the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Church, the
Communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the
Resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
Amen.

All sit THE BEATITUDES

P: My brethren, let us never forget the blessings spoken
of by our Lord Jesus Christ during His sermon on the
mount.

Blessed are the poor in spirit,
R: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

P: Blessed are those who mourn,
R: for they will be comforted.

P: Blessed are the meek,

R: for they will see God.

P: Blessed are the peacemakers,
R: for they shall be called the children of God.

P: Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,
R: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

P: Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute
you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you
because of me. Rejoice and be glad because great is
your reward in heaven,
R: for in the same way they persecuted the prophets
who were before you.

P: Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the
Holy Spirit.
R: As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall
be, world without end. Amen.

R1: Lord our heavenly Father, Almighty and everlasting
God, who has safely brought us to the beginning
of this day, defend us in the same with Your

peace of soul and with firm conviction that Your
will governs all. In all my deeds and words, guide
my thoughts and feelings. In unforeseen events,

embarrassing others. Give me strength to bear
the fatigue of this day, with all that it shall bring.
Direct my will, teach me to pray and, Yourself,
pray in me. Amen.

THE EVENING PRAYER

P: Let us pray.
R1: Lighten our darkness, we beseech You, O Lord,
and by Your great mercy defend us from all perils
and dangers of this night; for the love of Your only
Son our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

OR

R2: Lord, king of all creation, who has kept me safe to
reach this hour, forgive me the transgressions I
have committed this day in thought, word, and
deed. Lord, cleanse my humble soul from every
imperfection of flesh and spirit. Grant me, Lord, to
pass this night in peace, to rise from my bed, and
to please Your holy name all the days of my life,
and to vanquish all enemies, both physical and
nonphysical, that struggle against me. Deliver me,
Lord, from the vain thoughts and evil desires that
dishonour me. Amen.

it is imperfect, reform it. Where it is right, establish

afflictions, faults, and weaknesses, and for Your help

R: God grant us the serenity to accept the things we
cannot change,
The courage to change the things we can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.

P: Father, we ask for Your guidance in the exercise of
our free will, a most precious gift.
R: Lord we pray that we properly use our free will,
which, in Your wisdom, You bestowed upon us in
the beginning, and that we use this free will in a
righteous and proper manner that pleases You

and answered by our saviour and mediator, Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.

P: Let us pray. Almighty God, bless these ashes that will
cover us as a sign of penance. Make us worthy of
Your divine forgiveness and inspire us with confidence
in Your mercy. Grant Your grace to those who
will receive it with humility in their heart, through
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

INVOCATION OF THE OIL
(The Bishop celebrates this service yearly in consecrating the oil
used in the “Order For The Unction Of The Sick”)

B: Our salvation is in the name of the Lord.
R: Who made heaven and earth.

B: Let us pray. God, eternal Father, we offer You this
holy oil, which is destined to administer Your Holy
sacraments. Through Your mercy, it will be blessed
and sanctified to the glory of Your name for the edification
of Your people, through Jesus Christ, our
Lord. Amen.

P: Let us pray:
R: I have put my trust in You, O Lord. I said, You are
my God: my life is in Your hands.

(Cleric elevates the bread on the Paten)
P: Even as this broken bread was scattered over the hills,
and when gathered together, became one mass, so let
Your Church be gathered together from the ends of
the earth into Your kingdom, for Yours is the Glory
and the Power through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.

(Cleric pours the water and wine into the chalice, then elevates the
wine while saying:)
We thank You, Our Father, for the holy vine of David,
Your servant, which You made known to us through
Jesus, Your servant. To You be the glory forever-more.

We thank You, Our Father, for the life and the knowledge
which You have made known to us through
Jesus, Your servant. To You be the glory forever-more.

Lord, we ask You to receive us and be pleased with
the sacrifice we offer You with humble and repentant
hearts.

(Cleric washes and dries his hands)
Lord, wash away my iniquity and cleanse me from my sins.

Let no one eat or drink of the Eucharist but they who
have been baptized in the name of the Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit, and have accepted their salvation
through Jesus Christ, for concerning this, the Lord
said, Give not that which is Holy to the unworthy.
R: Blessed be God forever. Amen.

THE ANAPHORA

P: The Lord be with you.
R: And with your spirit

P: Lift up your hearts.
R: We lift them up to the Lord.

P: Let us give thanks to Our Lord God.
R: It is proper and right to do so.

P: It is very proper, right, holy, and becoming, Lord God
Almighty, to worship You, to give thanks to You, and
praise You without ceasing both day and night, not
only in the Church but in all places of Your dominion.
But chiefly, we are bound to praise You for the life-giving
and heavenly mysteries and all things that You
have done by Your wisdom, and for the true light that
enlightens every man who comes into the world, for
You are above all power and might and principalities
and every name that is named, both in heaven and on
the earth. Therefore, with angels and archangels, and
with all the power of the heavenly host, we laud and
magnify Your Holy Name, Lord, joining with their
perpetual praise, glorifying Your majesty everlasting
and all glorious, self-subsisting, saying:
R: Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of hosts, heaven and
earth are full of Your glory. Glory be unto You, O
Lord, the most high and heavenly king. Blessed is
he that comes in the name of the Lord.

P: We humbly beseech You, merciful Father, to hear our
prayer and descend from heaven, with Your angels
and archangels, to come among us with Your
almighty goodness, and concede to bless and consecrate
with Your Word and Holy Spirit, these, Your
gifts we offer of bread and wine that receiving them
according to Your Son Our Saviour Jesus Christ’s
holy institution, in remembrance of His death and
passion, we may be partakers of His true blessed
body and blood. Amen.

THE PREPARATION FOR COMMUNION

P: All glory be to You, Almighty God, Our Heavenly
Father, for that You, of Your tender mercy, did give
Your only Son Jesus Christ to suffer death upon the
cross for our redemption, who made there a full, perfect,
and sufficient sacrifice, offering, and atonement,
for the sins of the entire world, and did institute, and
in His Holy Gospel, command us to continue an everlasting
memory of His precious death and sacrifice,
until His coming again.

Elevate bread.
For on the night in which He was betrayed, He took
bread, and when He had given thanks, He broke it,
and gave it to His disciples saying, “Take, eat, this is
my body, which is given for you; do this in remembrance
of me.”
(Cleric breaks bread)

Elevate wine.
Likewise, after supper, He took the cup and when He
had given thanks, He gave it to them saying, “Drink
you all of this; for this is my blood of the new testament
which is shed for you and for many, for the
remission of sins. Do this as often as you shall drink
it in remembrance of me.”

Wherefore, Heavenly Father, according to the institution
of Your dearly beloved Son, our Saviour Jesus
Christ, we, Your humble servants, do celebrate and
make here before Your divine majesty with these,
Your Holy Gifts, which we now offer to You, the
memorial Your Son has commanded us to make having
in remembrance His blessed passion and precious
death, His mighty resurrection, and glorious ascension;
rendering to You most hearty thanks for the
innumerable benefits procured to us through Him.

Be pleased to look upon these offerings with a gracious
and kindly countenance, and accept them as it
pleased You to accept the offering of Your just servant,
Able, and the sacrifice of Abraham. And, we
most humbly beseech You, merciful Father, bid these
offerings be carried by the hands of Your Holy
Angels to Your altar on high before Your divine
majesty so that those of us who, by sharing in the sacrifice
at this altar, shall receive the sacred body and
blood of Your Son, and may be filled with every grace
and heavenly blessing.

We earnestly desire Your fatherly goodness mercifully
to accept this our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving
through Jesus Christ Our Lord, by whom and
with whom, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all honour
and glory be unto You, Father Almighty, world with-out
end.
R: Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the
world: have mercy upon us. Lamb of God, who
takes away the sins of the world: have mercy
upon us. Lamb of God, who takes away the sins
of the world: grant us Your peace.

P: Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of
the world, happy are those who are called to His supper.
R: Lord Jesus, I believe and confess that You are
truly the Christ, Son of the living God, who came
into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the
chief, and I believe that this is Your pure Body and
Your own precious Blood. Therefore, I pray You
have mercy on me, and forgive my transgressions,
committed both voluntary and involuntary,
in word, thought, and deed, known and unknown,
and grant that I may partake of Your Holy Supper
without condemnation for the remission of my
sins and for life eternal. Amen.

THE COMMUNION - (Intinction)

P: The supper of our Lord is a Sacrament of our
Redemption by Christ’s death and a sign of love that
Christians ought to have among themselves, one to
another. And the means whereby the Body of Christ
is received in the Supper is Faith. With true reverence
of God, faith, and love, all those present who are
baptized Christians and truly accept Jesus Christ as
their Saviour are invited to come forth.
R: Lord accept me today as a communicant. Like
the thief who suffered with You on Calvary, I will
openly acknowledge You. Remember me, Lord, in
Your Kingdom. Not unto judgement nor unto condemnation
be my partaking of these Holy
Elements, O Lord, but unto the healing of my soul
and body. Amen.
(Congregation comes forth to receive Communion)

P: The body and blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ, which
was shed for you, may it preserve your soul unto
everlasting life.
R: Lord, I am ready to receive You; only say the word
and I shall be healed.
(After all have been served)

P: Lord, let Your benediction and grace descend upon
all who have received Your holy body and precious
blood.
R: We give You thanks, Holy Father, for Your Holy
Name which You have caused to dwell in our
hearts, and for the knowledge and faith and
immortality which You have made known to us
through Jesus, Your Servant. To You be the glory
forevermore.

You, Almighty Master, did create all things and have
given both food and drink for men to enjoy that we
might give thanks to You; but more than these, You
have graciously given spiritual food and drink, and
life through Your son.

Above all, we thank You because You are mighty
and able to save. To You be the glory forevermore.

Remember, Lord, Your Church, to deliver it from
every evil, and to make it perfect in Your love, and
gather it together from the four winds, even that
which has been sanctified for Your Kingdom
which You have prepared for it, for Yours is the
power and the glory forevermore.

Let Grace come and let this world pass away.
Hosanna to the Son of David. Whoever is holy, let
him come; whoever is not, let him repent. The
Lord has come. Amen.
NOTE: To complete the service of morning and evening prayer the
liturgy is continued here.

THE DISMISSAL

P: Let us depart in peace.
R: In the name of the Lord.

P: Let us pray to the Lord.
R: Almighty and ever-living God, we thank You for
allowing us to receive the body and blood of our
Saviour Jesus Christ, assuring us thereby that we
are truly a member of His Body, the Church, and we
ask You to help us by Your Holy Spirit that we may
continue in this fellowship and do the good works
which You desire us to do; through Christ Jesus,
Your Son, our Lord, to whom with You and the
same Spirit, be all honour and glory, forever and
ever. Amen.

RECESSIONAL

THE FINAL BENEDICTION

P: May the strength of God pilot us.
May the power of God preserve us.
May the wisdom of God instruct us.
May the hand of God protect us.
May the way of God direct us.
May the shield of God defend us.
May the host of God guard us against
the snares of evil and
the temptations of the world.
May Christ be with us.
Christ above us.
Christ in us.
Christ before us.
May Your salvation, O Lord, be always ours
This day and forevermore. Amen.

(Joe says)...
A Gentle Dream
which is our reality
and there is nothing wrong with that.
Packing up now to head home and do some real work...

noreply@blogger.com (John) — Wed, 30 Apr 2003 19:06:00 +0000

Well well well
it's been a while since
I've blogged
and the world didn't end
so here's some more stuff to impart

Joe's so soon coming out with his gnu one
but you knew that
Dave's in the garden
Brad on the beach
Anne's in her garden
Emily is expanding her horizons
Melissa is doing well in Melissa land
I'm planning my eternal vacation

There's rapt anticipation
at Joe's gnu one
The mp3s
and cover art look lovely
and art is for entertainment
and SONAR EXPERIMENTS
has been very entertaining for some time now

I can't wait to see the puppet show!

Ambient Dream Pop
===============
Where reality becomes a dream

It is so easy to forget

Listen to the wind

Joe started it all,
as I recall+++

Love that genre name: Ambient Dream Pop
My new goal in life is to be categorized as such.

They're working on the front so you had to come into the ground floor from the back. So we got to see antiquities that we don't normally get to. We especially liked the Roman room with stuff plundered by Sir Stanley Somethingorother from Antioch, North Iraq, Iran and Roma. Emily liked the statue heads that were made of the deceased so they could attend their own funerals.

Are u there, sir??

Congratulations, you have achieved MY goal in life.
You bastard! :-) ;-)
Is Ringo ambient dream pop too???

Wait till you hear my groove loops...

Ringo is definitely ambient dream pop ----

Can't wait to hear your groove loops.

My very strong suggestion, sir ===============

Is to package it all into a nicely timed 45 minute disk
and send it out to the PBR mailing list immediately
for the ultimate surprise attack.

DO NOT BE AFRAID!!!!!

Come on in, Joe----
the WATER'S just fine ------------

I might start work on my next ambient dream pop album,
but this time it will be more ambient and more dreamier and very poppy!!!!!!!!!

We are once again INSPIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS:
Do they sell this ambient dream pop MUM at any record store you frequent,
or is online the way to go?!?

I've already got it. I had purchased this one from Amazon along with my great Sigur Ros () find.
I was so into () that this one fell by the wayside, but the more I listen to Mum, the more I like. It's a good one, minus the impact of Sigur Ros.

I am here. 40 hrs without the internet - I can't imagine that! I was getting worried: no contact from Dave, John or Brad... Especailly after my last joekaz.net newsletter, I thought I scared everyone away.

My new album is ambient dream pop
My new album is ambient dream pop
My new album is ambient dream pop...

Get the gnu one and listen to the colour of your dreamz ...

If it's a rainy weekend as predicted, I'll spend it in the studio. Unlike last weekend which was so nice sunny & warm that I could only produce 3 minutes of music. Maybe this weekend I can fill in the missing 42 minutes.

Ps. doubt if you could find Mum locally, but who knows...

Loop it my man.

Instant Audio.

Hit the snail mail box on Monday with the new one!!!!

INSTANT AUDIO'S GONNA GET CHA

BRAD'S JAMAICAN REVIEW
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Thank You. Initially, thought my auto was pinging & due for service. Then i realized you were lodged somewhere in my dashboard. My favorite track is #10.. oh, and !JUST! as i was passing Hamilton Hospital, an oncoming car was veering into me at immediately left - she was making a left-hand turn - as you said "look out for that car on yer left, Brad.." The timing couldn't have been more perfect. Kinda freaked me out. I loop The New One, and find it all at once engaging, entertaining, and artful and artful and artful. The cover is too good to be stored in "spine" position in one's library of CD classics; I shall keep it on the "Now Playing" CD holder for many years to come. Thanks again, John. You are the CD savviest.

db's broken dream
###############

JOE,WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-db- last night i dreamed a pack of
wolves were attacking a coyote in the niegbors back yard and then i was
driving down 295 listening to the news on the radio when i noticed a squadron
of jet fighters chasing an airliner and knew something was wrong.As they got
closer ,I thought they were going to crash into me.The airliner flew in low
just above my car and crahed into some kind of tower structure off the
highway.I was certain it was a terrorist attack(and duct taped my car windows
immediately-just kidding this was not in the dream) I listened more intently
to the radio for news of the attack but only got football scores then I woke
up to the nightmare of everyday living- not sure if that qualifys as a gentle
dream but the last thing i heard before going to bed was the 27 second sample
- a tease i might add- imagination did fine cover work but alas no mention of
a release date .is my street address broken??/-db-

YPB sermon one
++++++++++++

Blog the blogger
From child to spirit
Thru the window
And out the door
JESUS came
But said not a word
And we went on with our day
But some day in heaven
Everything will be about
The Father and the Lamb
And we’ll be alright with that
Because perfection will reign
And we will have a place at the table
And that will be a great day/eternity

Dave's Classic Review
++++++++++++++++

Dear john
a snippet of a review>listen in car on way to work friday am>since driving
not sure yet of song to song title relation>first thought"an element(al)
building block of a recording">"instant time travel to industry hey days of
early to mid 80s yet topically current and relevant" inspired me t write some
lyrics if they stand test of time(tHAT IS IF I STILL LIKE THEM THE NEXT TIME
i read them may be released in some sort of fashion> again kudos to
imagination for a fine cover( when i came home from work i had the cd in my
hand>jack comes running to me saying"daddy" i flash the cd at him .he
simultaneously steps back as in fear yet laughs at loud>same sequence
repeated three times in a row until on the last time he falls back on his
back side laughing>that is jack's review of cover-db- a fine
experimental,ambient,free flow,topical release my favorite part those far is
the tv quote of john major saying it is time sadaam shaped up or else(again
the time travel backward yet topically current effect)

THE REVIEWS
===========
Did you survive the night, Joe??
Still alive. And no more visions.
My tongue was purple this morning though.
I think it was the wine.

I estimate that the fellas should be receiving their albums today or tomorrow at the latest.

I see Dave said he liked the 27 second loop of GENTLE DREAM.

Emily showed the CD to Melissa yesterday and Melissa enjoyed my wacky spinning green eyes on the cover. She said " I hope this isn't being sold in stores."

Melissa isn't very $$$ oriented.

The last thing i heard before going to bed was the 27 second
sample
- a tease i might add- imagination did fine cover work but alas no
mention of
a release date .is my street address broken??/-db-

I now wonder if I should watch what I say in my
>>emails.
>>
>>I've been blogged!
>>But there are worse things in life.
>>
>>Good work, John.

Is my email broken?
Has the rest of the world disappeared?
Have I drank too much cheap wine?

As I listen to:
- 2 complete (not short samples) Sigur Ros tunes downloaded from Amazon
- Gentle Dream (JFK2003)

Which is better?
You decide.

Does it really matter if the world has vanished?
Maybe it's an improvement.
See you in Iceland.
See you in Hopeland.
See you in my dreams.

Last night, I dreamed that I had died.
And you were all at my funeral.
My spinning head appeared to you in church.
And I gave you each a special message.
Stay tuned...

H2O2 4 U
-----------------
Well INDUSTRY insiderz the gnu one is now winging it's way to you.

I recorded it on the afternoon of 03.01.03
when I was in need of such a thing.

Joe was kind enough to do ALL the digital stuff
and two lunches later H2O2 was born (released).

The recording or parts of it entered the postal system
and the www, once again thanx to digital joe, within the last 12 hourz.

I myself first heard the digital version of this album (file under: ambient spoken word)
yesterday afternoon and had a laugh and enjoyed the ambience; henceforth, it was
preordained to be shared with thee.

I hope you enjoy pieces like GENTLE DREAM & REVERB HOLE
and verbal orchestrations like WAR NEWZ & ambient musings like
BRAD'S JAMAICAN REVELATION.

Joe called the recording a "breath of fresh air" --
I hope your earz see it that way too.

digitally yours for eternal ICELANDIC peace,

REGARDING THE GNU ONE:

As I was listening to the driving directions on H202, I was crossing Princeton Pike.
You said "look out for the car on your left Brad".

Meanwhile a car was approaching me from the right.

True, you said 'Brad', but I worry that lawsuits could be in your future.

Excellent.
Many thanx Joe for your digital art and audio assistance
on this recording.
Please give yourself much credit and also
our waitress Jennette!!!!
Interesting how on my new album it gets more and more like
Sigur Ros until the final consumate blending on the 10+ minute GENTLE DREAM.
Enjoy, sir,

Oh the mind
Oh the trees
Oh the wind
In the trees
Are you there?
Holding fast
As the sea approaches
And your friend reproaches
A Jamaican holiday
Filled with ideas and sunshine
An Icelandic adventure
Among the rocks
The volcanoes know you
You are pleasant
And not war like
Can a typists dreams ever come true?

DEEP INSIDE

Let us go deep, deep inside the mind of Mr. Joe
and be as he is, if only for a moment:

At home yesterday, with track 1, I was thinking:
uh-oh, I steered John wrong...
But by track 3 I was in Iceland again, and knew I steered you right.

By the time track 8 came around, I was shaken to my core.
I cried.
I was scared.
I was happy.

Lets go to Hooters.

(REVELATION BLOG #s 1 & 2)

John said:
When I was younger, I had a fantasy of driving north up into permafrost Newfoundland
and stopping at the end of the road where there was a big pile of plowed snow and no more road. It was at that point I would BLOW MY BRAINS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!! I was lost and wailing and then CHRIST JESUS appeared to take me home. In a subsequent vision, he saved me from falling off a cliff into a LAKE OF FIRE. As the DEVIL SATAN bid me "COME". A summer vision, if you will.

And Joe retorted:
Wow, for real? Put that in your blog!
And Joe continued:
I'm in Iceland, listening to Sigur-Ros. I am absolutely mesmerized. Ambience with mystery and power in the undertones. I keep picturing an icy landscape, stinging winds, and monsters lurking in the snow. I am lost and wailing and no one will help me.

To say the album design is stark would be an understatement. The CD itself is white with some hints of off white. No writing. The jewel case front is a 6 page booklet. Each page is translucent white with ghostly images appearing to be grass or sticks sticking out of the snow. No writing. The back cover is translucent white, with the words "Sigur-Ros.com" - that is the only information on the whole album. My cd player here automatically retrieves album information from CDDB on the web. For this album, it retrieves nothing.

We are lost in the snow. Wailing. And no one will help.

I am Sigur-Ros's number one fan.

And Brad returned fire with regards to REVELATION:
Sunned and !Stunned! LEGENDARY 7 days in my life.
Touched by an angel on Jamaica shoreline, brought me to tears.
"It's amazing how we never die [, mon]"

Ochos Rios - on horseback in the Caribbean.

And John, standing by the sea having come full circle, replied:
Indeed.

STANDING BY THE SEA

Electronix left aside
I stand by the sea
And feel the breeze
With thoughts
Of what was
And can still be
Do you remember?
Before the fall
And the blue shark from Gettysburg
You’ve moved on
And left me behind
But the memories
The sweet memories linger
A new home now
And an African wife
People living easy
And getting by
The culture shifts
And the day comes to an end
But the beginning of tomorrow
Renews an old friend

Broad smiles

Always ideas
And paintings

Colours swirling

Of hair and eyes
To see you

A digital storm
Fotos in the backyard
Of the car and wood

Odd shapes
And baldheads
And fancy birds
A colourful sort

A small cottage in $$$
Where the fire and the beer are warm
I’ll take you with me
To that wonderful place

Smoldering embers
As I promised you
The smoke is rising
And I am content
To see what you can do

A beautiful song
Writ large upon the sky
To the see the sun shine
In a digital world of smiles

An idea
Brought to an image
And a nation
Holding position among the stars

I have something to tell you
About $$$
I know that you can help me
That’s how $$$ would want it to be

CUT TO THE CHASE

A world on fire
Because they hate JESUS
And flesh burns
There's nothing new

Since Cain and Abel
And happy Australians
ooops
I meant happy $$$

Sitting in the White House
Talking to the President
In front of the fire
God is the truth
And every man's a liar

Keep making it up
Keep going along
Duct tape
and plastic
and entertainment
Where did we go wrong
Where did we go right
The nation mourns...
Tomorrow

Weep for yourself Jerusalem
For the hour of your salvation has come
The light came into the world
But the darkness did not receive it
