No News is No News



Waiting on job offers, looking for interviews. Bored a lot, ho hum dee dum. Here are some things I've been up to:

1. Playing classical guitar.
Right now I'm learning Chopin mazurkas arranged for guitar.
2. Watching all of The Mighty Boosh episodes on Youtube.
3. Watched Good Bye Lenin yesterday. I recommend it. Very original concept and clever writing. Set in Berlin, about a young man who works to convince his heart-attack prone mother that the wall never collapsed after she awakes from an 8 month coma during which the wall did in fact, come down. You are led to believe the motive for this is the doctor's warning of 'no big surprises' for the mom, but it becomes clear that maybe this is something the main character is also a little obsessed with. The score is also quite beautiful. Yann Tiersen composes. Check it out.

I'm sorry guys about my less than frequent updates, kind of baloney because I'm not really 'occupied in the american sense' (employed). look for hair updates and oh joseph, the guitar is not within my possession, thats a picture of frank zappa i ripped from the web. But Chopin's head is real. I digged up his corpse and took a snapshot. I had to Photoshop it though, it was mostly skull and hair. Pretty good no?

JD said...

Oh, I was fooled by the fingers. Frank Zappa has the same kind of fingers that you do, I guess they're guitar player's fingers. Nice work on Chopin's head.
