marcus said: --- indeed, this is true. every day (well, more night) at around ten thirty you can watch the pocasicko (pronounced pochaseechko) (i think that's what it's called but i'm hungover and i've forgotten my czech), literally translated
as 'little/ dear weather'. this involves porn film music while a starkers
girl/ boy comes on and rather than doing the usual porn thing of taking off clothes seductively she/ he puts them on. you can tell when it's about to
be on because czech tv isn't very sophisticated, and so when a film gets cut off halfway through the credits and adverts for those phone lines that i honestly can't believe anyone calls (does anyone?) start to play you know that it's not too long until the weather. and it's at a very convenient time, because you can watch it just before you go out for the night. but sometimes they put on a badly dubbed porn film instead, and that's not so good - czech isn't the sexiest of languages.
'pocasicko' is quite a fun idea, but i can't imagine it working with the british weather forecast - who wants to see michael fish naked? ulrika jonson used to be a weathergirl, didn't she? that wouldn't have been so bad. oh, my favorite pocasicko girl was called vera. which reminds me of
the girl in prague called vera who wanted me to marry her in a rush to save her from being deported. but that's another story... ---
it's all true, apparently, about pocasicko on nova tv, but i have to disagree about czech not being a sexy language - in fact, i'm going out with a czech girl called vera, although i don't think she's ever been naked on czech TV. next year i'm hoping we can live in england but we're trying to avoid getting married in a rush.
anyway i have some apologies to make. i was sent a bunch of stuff ages ago by a few people on this list (ben ferneyhough, a guy called jason and someone else who i've forgotton). i really wanted to send you all something interesting in return but i never got round to it. so please, please please, if you know who you are - give me a shout and i'll send you some top tunes. i'm thinking of some czech music, so please tell me whether you want weird trip-hop (sort of portishead meets bjork) or old blokes playing banjos. i have both sorts.
B+S content: my mate here in NYC is getting all pissed off because he read about the bowlie festival and he wants to have one too. it does sound much better than woodstock anyway. is anyone going to that? i'm working in NYC until october so if there's a picnic i will actually show my face and meet the people i keep reading about!!! or if you live in NYC just mail me and we can get the beers in - actually some very nice people did that and i lost their emails. please email me again, i'm much more sociable in real life than on this list!
well, about my 2nd mail ever to the list. didn't go so bad i suppose.
bye bye
love
ben
