"We're all going to die, all of us, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn't. We are terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing." ~ Charles Bukowski

"I write books to relieve myself of pain. That’s the prime motivator to write. Period." ~ Bret Easton Ellis

"The most distinguishing feature of the man was his Mohawk hairstyle, which was raised with the help of a "hair gel" of plant oil and pine resin, imported from south-western France or Spain. This may attest to trade between Ireland and southern Europe in the fourth and third centuries BC, before Roman influence was brought to bear on the Celts of Iberia and Galicia (Spain). This could also suggest that he was wealthy, as few others would have been able to buy imported cosmetics."

Easing into Monday.

Watching Terrence Malick's The Thin Red Line.

"By the final cut, all footage of the performances by Billy Bob Thornton, Martin Sheen, Gary Oldman, Bill Pullman, Lukas Haas, Jason Patric, Viggo Mortensen and Mickey Rourke had been removed."

"The Thin Red Line has become an English figure of speech for any thinly spread military unit holding firm against attack. The phrase has also taken on the metaphorical meaning of the barrier which the relatively limited armed forces of a country present to potential attackers.

Philippe Halsman & Salvador Dalí , In Voluptas Mors, 1951

Watching 800 Bullets. I was disappointed with Perdita Durango but I've heard good things about Álex de la Iglesia so I thought I would give his films another go. So far so good.

"Oh fuck: The Internet is still here."

Wait for it.

The Flaming Lips + Lightning Bolt, I'm Working at NASA on Acid

Watching Álex de la Iglesia's Perdita Durango. Like Lynch's Wild At Heart it's based on the writing of Barry Gifford, however unlike Wild At Heart it's decidedly B-grade. In his first English speaking role Javier Bardem's accent is annoyingly terrible.

Arctic Monkeys, Brianstorm

Can't sleep. Watching André de Toth's Crime Wave.

Currently watching Lynch's Wild At Heart. It's based on a book by Barry Gifford who, unfortunately, seems to have fallen out of favour.

"This is a snakeskin jacket! And for me it's a symbol of my individuality, and my belief in personal freedom."

"Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom." ~ Marcel Proust
