Indian grocery on West Side?!!!
Category: grocery
I heard that there is now a bonafide Indian grocery somewhere on west side near Connecticut st. and one of the other Thai stores. And that it has been open for a couple months now.

What?! Really?!!!

Where is it? Has anyone seen it? (e:metalpeter), you live close, do you know its exact location? I now want to trawl all over the place in the snow to find it. But some of those streets can be a tad sketchy sometimes. Someone I met at the Indian grocery at Jackson Heights, and who recognized me from Pricerite told me about it... but I didn't quite catch its name, or its location.

When I was scoping out the Thai stores a couple years back, I walked down all those numbered streets. Some streets are dodgier than others. I got this very dodgy feeling that I was being watched through some of the shuttered houses.

I Wish I knew where it was..... Now I did go to something at Horse Feathers that (e:PMT) was at that was going to become a bunch of places I wonder if it is in that building? To be Honest I don't go on Connecticut very often cause I'm not sure how Sketchy 14th is.......

Françoise Hardy: French Joan Baez
Category: music
Heh. I listen to this and all I can think of is.. hey, when did Joan Baez start singing in French. :)



And this has to be the most unsettling song to sing to a kid.


A medieval version of that where they cut out the disturbing bits. LOL


Another version of All the pretty little horses. Instead of singing about the dying baby being attacked by the elements at the end of the meadow, now it's about birds and butterflies fluttering about its eyes.

Stokowski. Period.
Category: music
The ultimate transcriptions stop at Stokowski.

Seriously, I think I enjoy his transcriptions waay more than the originals. Under his unique influence, somehow the frenetic ornamentations of the baroque era are magically lifted and transformed into the stately pace of the classical era. This is Vivaldi's oh-so-baroque classic, sounding as if it was written during Beethoven's times. It is played in the video by the magnificent BBC Philharmonic under Matthias Bamert.

No see you would be serving it up into a dinner but since it isn't an animal (yes humans really are) so it wouldn't matter to the non animal eaters at the dinner table later that night...... HA

"Technically this is Human so the meal will still be Vegetarian "

You mean my chopping fantasy is limited to vegetarians? Don't be such a killjoy!

For some reason I can picture you in a movie chopping up bodies ala American Psycho and this is the background Music....... Maybe you catch phrase could be "Technically this is Human so the meal will still be Vegetarian "? Evil Laugh
