KATE BUSH BAH! HUMBUG

How Could You Hurt Me So

Just got a cease and desist doodad over a Kate Bush song (Snowflakes) from an advent calender post I did a few years back, well that's not bloody festive especially in August.

All right, I might be wrong with the intellectual copy write stuff, but it can happen to us all.

I've written a poem to sum up my feelings
 (please feel free to use it in a song).

O DEAR KATE PLEASE BE MY MATE
TOOK DOWN MY POST
ALL HOPE IS LOST OR NOT


Lets have a short film, based on the ideas of another person

Cloudbusting

A cloudbuster (or cloud buster) is a device designed by Austrian psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich, which Reich said could produce rain by manipulating what he called "orgone energy" present in the atmosphere.^[1]

The cloudbuster was intended to be used in a way similar to a lightning rod: focusing it on a location in the sky and grounding it in some material that was presumed to absorb orgone—such as a body of water—would draw the orgone energy out of the atmosphere, causing the formation of clouds and rain. Reich conducted dozens of experiments with the cloudbuster, calling the research "Cosmic orgone engineering". (this information is copywrite  of the only true source of anything)

GIVE ME LOVE, GIVE ME LOVE GIVE ME PEACE ON EARTH

 The G Spot

Oh well here we (when I say "we" I'm assuming someone might look at this rubbish) go again.

Lets start with congratulations to the damn fools who got wed today. done it once never again.

Some knuckle dragging fundamentalist Christian weirdo was on the wireless this morning explaining that marriage is only real with a c*ck in a c*nt (and he should know). Its odd to hear someone pontificating about sexual practices that he only fantasizes about while knocking one out.

Personally Tom I think ones sexual preferences should be between yourself and ones priest.

Moving on...............

The Fishermans Friends had a flurry of interest with Shanties a little while back, and fair play to them, well ruffty tuffty seamen need some distraction on those long trips away from their loved ones.

Love Jules
