1. Many days ago, Peter Miller wrote
"don't be put off The
Trial by all that nonsense about it being a metaphor for life. Not a jot of
it. It is in fact top comedy, not unlike Frank Spencer or Fawlty Towers. "
In "Hurley's Having Dreams", there's a reference to Hurley dreaming of the time
when he was a horse in Czechoslovakia. Could it be that "Hurley" is the song
Judy "wrote" about a dream of horses? And maybe she wrote about a "horse in
Czechoslovakia" because she was reading a book by a Czech author (although he
wrote in German)? And maybe that's why there's a woman on the front of IFYS
reading The Trial?
And maybe I'll get a reply that this whole thing has been done to death a few
months ago!
Anyway, The Castle is the best, especially the Muir (I think) version which
includes alternative episodes later dropped for the final version.
2. In real life, dreaming of horses remains financially hazardous. The
gallant horse Dun Belle has been very consistent. She fell in the English
Grand National and came second last in the Irish Grand National.

The other day I was listening,with a friend of mine, to a B&S song "the
state I am in".
Great song. Pure magic.The anticlimax came when suddenly she said "you and
your
emotions. You´re just a sentimental fool! Life isn´t poetry, you know?"
I felt so confused! Jesus, why is it wrong to show that YOU CARE? Is it a
crime to show what you feel? Your EMOTIONS?
Am I a non-normal person because of that?
I´m terribly disappointed. If she could only understand!
" if the sun going down
can make me cry
why should I
Not like the way I am?"
I just can´t throw away my "dog on wheels",

It's interesting to note that this is actually written by Scott Piering, the
guy who played a major role in the early career of some bunch of losers
called The Smiths (whatever happened to them?), and who is, by all accounts
a totally diamond geezer.
While I'm here, can I pass on a message from Megan 'Da Mink' Lehar, to
everyone who knows her? (Oooh, I felt like I was on Swap Shop as I typed
that.) Well, just to let everyone know she arrived safely on Tuesday,
bringing a heatwave to London with her, and completed a thorough tour of
Bermondsey's wonderful crack houses. She is, as I write, catching the train
to Jockoland to meet the Edinburgh posse. "There can be only one" she told
me as she left for Kings Cross this morning.

Well, I was interested if anyone knows how Murdoch got started. Was he
hanging out in bars before he was recorded at that college, or basically in
his bedroom with a 4 track recorder? I'm trying to figure out which is
more important. I kept thinking about a demo listening session at south by
southwest this past year where these heads of companies were making big
deals about listing tour dates when submitting demos, but really, when you
think about it, how many people have actually heard of a band through a
live gig?

This week's Guardian (a ubiquitous free local independent weekly paper
here in SF) has a quirky little bit where they pair wine with bands..
they have Portishead as Graham's Port ("deep, lavish, intoxicating") and
Hanson as Gallo Chablis cos it's "overly sweet and likely to induce
vomiting."
Belle and Sebastian are mentioned (!) and here's what they say:
"Guenoc sauvignon blanc; crisp, very dry, and very white; several
degrees cooler than chardonnay."
Hmm never thought of this before... if Belle and Sebastian were food
they'd be.......
okay it's time to go read a book or something
ta!
