San fran, part III

I'm trying to upload the pictures from this week-end, with no success. Google, as much as I love you: you're fucking pissing me off right now. I'm going to bed. For the third time today.

Wearing my rolex(Hot Chip cover)

Ana & Ghazal deserve all the credit for this one. Ghaz described it as "The most positive surprise since Anna Ternheim's version of Shoreline." You have to download it, it's amazing. Basically, it's an instrumental cover of Wiley's "Wearing my Rolex". Go for it, guys.

Hot Hip(Live at the BBC Lounge) - Wearing my Rolex

We're going to San Francisco in a bit, there will definitely be more picture-taking going on up there. Until then, I guess.

Buying movies in the 20th century. Today.

I've almost completed my new movie-purchase from amazon. I'm still at that point where I enjoy wasting money on buying movies, it just feels better. Such a fucking 20th century character trade, I know. The first season of Flight of the Conchords is definitely on the list, along with Fargo, Who framed roger rabbit, Y tu mama tambien, Carandiro, Howls moving castle, Lords of dogtown, Almost famous, the complete series of The office(bbc), Paranoid park and Forrest Gump. And I'm definitely pre-ordering Persepolis. Jakob's coming tomorrow, we're going to San Francisco for the week-end. For people awaiting pictures, feel free to write CVS an email. And please, don't forget to use the F-word.

p.s Someone asked me the other day what kind of dogs I used to have. Now, these aren't MY dogs, just pictures of the same type of dogs:

Kraftwerk after all

I'm really starting to enjoy Kraftwerk more and more. The music is a parody, but definitely a good one. Also, I'm starting to get more and more annoyed with Guy-Manuel & Thomas and I'll never get pissed off at someone for copying daft punk again, since that's basically what Daft Punk are doing already. I mean, Kraftwerk released "Man Machine" in like 1980 and in 2004, Daft decided to be highly original with their concept of "Human Robot". What they needed for that little creativity-flash was basically a thesaurus. Not to mention Kraftwerk's song "We are the robots", which was released when Thomas & Guy Manuel were still young enough to accidentally play Da Funk on one of their toy instruments. 

We're still in Santa Barbara with Max, although he left to go watch a softball game with Sheila, so it's just me and Linus. I think the plan is to meet up with Jakob on Wednesday, then conduct a road trip to San Diego etc from the 15th to the 20th. Then we might visit Holly in L.A before splitting up, I'll go to San Francisco again, Jakob & Linus are going to New York. I'm not sure, I just know that I have to translate a stupid fucking feature for a Disney movie and that sucks. 

NOW, to a more urgent issue. What mythical creatures would I prefer to ride? I'm currently reading the Narnia books, and Aslan is definitely one of them. Also, definitely Shere Khan from The jungle book. Number one would obviously be the dog-ish creature from Neverending story, you know the one that looks like a mix between a dog, Mick Jagger and a retard. 

CVS fucked up the development of my last pictures, you'll have to wait until next week to see them. I hate CVS, I'm definitely naming my kid Wahlgreen's. Last night, me and Linus listened to a couple of Swedish classics. Everyone who is not from Sweden: I wouldn't click the video below, I'm just saying.



p.s I'm naming my dog Cornelius. For sure.

Definitely maybe cool cats.

I got up at 6.30 to work but I got bored and decided to use one of my disposables to shoot Max's cats. It's a dedication to all the cool people over here/something else that would be equally emotional. Enjoy my animal obsession, guys.


p.s We had a game yesterday where we used the concept of Mount Rushmore to create new top-4 lists in other categories. We did Mount ConquerorMore, the top 4 conquerors of all time. Dylan's list was definitely the best one:

1. Napoleon Bonaparte
2. Alexander the great
3. Julius Caesar
4. White people
