Moloko Vellocet Indeed


Just discovered a few days ago about LEMON Magazine. "LEMON is “Pop Culture With A Twist”: a new breed of magazine that stakes its claim at the intersection of 60s-70s Pop and 21st century hyper-culture. Designed and produced with obsessive attention to every last detail, each issue of LEMON is pure Pop Art."
I was very curious about it, 'cause in this 3rd and most recent issue, superb monster-director Stanley Kubrick is the main topic. Hmmm... two day were how many I could resist the urge to drop by 'my' magazine store -if there was a mag stand who could have it is this one. If they didn't, then i would have to wait for these guys to put out the suscription options (I already had e-mailed them to inquire, hehe). Welly welly well my little droogs, there it was, right in front of me as soon as I walked in. And this was one of those purchases that you don't even want to flip through the pages to get a sneak peek nor a quick glimpse; this one I had to experience it in full wide screen and technicolor. Task that I completed yesterday night.
I must say that I'm so pleased, delighted, and proud of owning this magazine. Apart from the fact that it is an outstandingly great product, written, designed and printed, it has a really amazing research behind it and a powerfull overall force trying to 'push the publication envelope' to the hip-est. Is one of those new things you just can't stop saying 'wow'. And seems that it is done mostly by 2 guys!!
And when I say I feel proud of owning it, I'm refering mostly to the topic of this issue, Kubrick, and the natural emphasis they give to my favourite movie of all time: Clockwork Orange. This zine renewed my vows to such an awesome film, which I have idolized since the first time I saw it, and once again, made me stand up and yell: Yes! THIS IS THE MOVIE!

Oh yeah, right, this blog's title and url... hmm...

Some unknown facts on 2001, The Shinning, Full Metal Jacket, Lolita, etc, even A.I., a 45 rpm Flexi-disc (as the ones found in the Guitar Player back in the 80s), Space Odyssey Comics, Malcom McDowell interview, Wendy Carlos, formerly known as Walter (didn't know that!), comic-styled interviews with Billy Corgan and Goldfrapp, recipee for making a lemon moloko plus beverage, ludwig van, Stefan Butcher from dailymonster.com, and some other stuff... All these for $9.95!!
Quite happy and very inspired...

I want to marry a lighthouse keeper
And keep him company.
I want to marry a lighthouse keeper
And live by the side of the sea.
I'll polish his lamp by the light of day
So ships at night can find their way.
I want to marry a lighthouse keeper
Won't that be okay!
We'll take walks along the moonlight bay
Maybe find a treasure too.
I'd love living in a light house,
HOW 'BOUT YOU?
The dream of living in a lighthouse baby, every single day.
The dream of living in a lighthouse,
the white one by the bay.
So if you want to make my dreams come true,
You'll be a lighthouse keeper too.
We could live in a lighthouse
The white one by the bay,hey hey.
Won't that be okay.
Yada tada ta ta ta.

Angry Young Man

Just found a new place to live... Unfortunately, I had to move out from the Beresford because of the stupid Gallagher who put me into this unconfortable situation of finding a new job and a new way to get me money... I'm a little sad about it because Yaletown is very neat and I was very used to the lifestyle there, but it's too pricey and I didn't want to take too much risks... It will be only for 1 year, and maybe I can save some money that can help me later even for new projects -rehearsal room!! Anyhoo, that's the way right now how my life is, a little bit of stress and sorrow, but I feel everything is going to align on its path very soon... Overall I'm still feeling a little blurred, a little forced to be misplaced, strange feeling... Angry about having to deal with this situation thanks to a third party that doesn't even imagine what he caused, but... It's alright... Just a little bitter feeling, nothing to worry too much about... You see the world th...

The seeker

I've spent all afternoon behind Sofia, browsing and looking for so many things right now... I feel kinda lost, kinda lonely... and that feeling gets enhanced by my physicall loneliness in which I'm immersed right now, because Chicken is in Mexico -has been there for 3 weeks! So, right now I don't know what else to do... Maybe that's one of the main reasons I decided to start blogging... Also, I've never thought I'd say this, but it's a lonely world and I miss my friends... I miss someone to talk to about regular things, normal and common topics... Everything here is still 'from outside', nothing has come and touched me yet... But, it's my first year, and besides, I'm getting what I was looking for... I'm still looking for my place, here in this country and in this world... I've spent all these days thinking, trying to find me a stable position... I know, it may sound too abstract how I'm telling things, but in the end it's an...

Chicken Shack

Finally, I saw today a glimpse of true happiness in the eyes of Chicken. Happiness mixed with lots of nerviousness and excitement and most of all, emotion. A rather sweet emotion. Seems like heaven above has decided to give her the chance of a lifetime. And, as I told her , this is her chance of a lifetime. I feel very excited too about it. A little nervious also, I must say, but honestly happy. For her, for us and for me. If she finally gets what she's asked for, she'll ride in the same rocket as me, at last. And if she is my co-pilot, finally we will get to those starts I've been dreaming of for so many years. If all these happens, I will finally be in total harmony with my life -that is, when I get my own job, of course. It's not that I wasn't already, but if one piece of the puzzle is missing, that hole is the first thing that jumps and ruins all the image. When all the pieces are in place, the picture is finally complete. Funny how the happiness of someone you...
