Emerging from Wreckage

A strange day. Very focused on things from the analog world.

We have a new internet connection, which required me to empty a junk room.

As we waited for the digital world to return, I spent the afternoon, sifting through the books, photos, old toys, DVDs from 40s-00s, which would now only exist in the Cloud.

In less weird existential news, Cardiacs are finally putting out their lost LP, LSD, seventeen years after the death of their leader Tim Smith. Has the haunting lyric:

“I said I’m sorry, I’m sorry that I’m not here. I had to be somewhere else or something else.”

You are responsible for creating your own Happiness

Wayne Coyne (lead singer of psychedelic rock band The Flaming Lips) on the subject of Creating Your Own Happiness.  It took me a long time to LIVE this one fully and I really wish I had done it sooner. Because it really is Awesome and Full of Win 🙂

P.s I have a wife that puts up with me as well 🙂

I found this completely by accient btw, while looking up cover versions of King Crimson’s 21st Schizoid Man (of which the Flaming Lips do a really trippy version – which I’ll post in a follow up post).

Of course I can’t get away with this post without including this graceful upbeat song by them 🙂
