Interesting that high energy exists in different realms: light, auditory vibration, quick-cut film editing, voice, percussionism, thought, archetypal form, music … which is yet another illustration of you the still and silent awareness not disturbing the noise with pride and prejudice, Jnani.

Cave man, and cave woman. Bits of colored stone that sparkle when they catch the light, drawing the eye to all that surrounds them. These stones can serve as money because they are desired. They possess universally recognized, intrinsic, and thus objective value ... objective because they are the object of desire and without human to see, they do not objectively exist for they are not objects of human duality. Their scarcity sets the exchange rate, their quality the denomination. The principle of money is the basis of society. Accept it and abandon these moans about the lack of money being evil. :) This is the way things are, which is why beaver pelts have intrinsic value beyond whimsical fashion.

You don’t hear a hot accordion every day, do you?

Queens of The Stone Age - No One Knows

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s88r_q7oufE


We get some rules to follow
That and this
These and those
No one knows
We get these pills to swallow
How they stick
In your throat
Tastes like gold
Oh, what you do to me
No one knows
And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I
And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I
Ah
I journey through the desert
Of the mind
With no hope
I found low
I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboats in the sun
And come undone
Pleasantly caving in
I come undone
And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I
And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool I
Ah
Heaven smiles above me
What a gift her below
But no one knows
A gift that you give to me
No one knows

"the neon sign flashed out its warning, the sayings of the prophets are written on the tenement halls and subway walls".

Anyone have a favourite TV series theme? They don't seem to bother much with opening credits any more.

Some standout favourites from the very distant past:

Accordion orchestras are ridiculous. This says it's the 'Rocky theme'. I thought they were trying to play Vivaldi's four seasons, or perhaps the wedding thingy that they play when it's all over? :? Accordions just don't sound right en masse. They should be played solo outside a French cafe (preferably in the 1940s with Edith Piaf singing).

This one is rather sad it's so nostalgic, then the orchestra opens the heart, and at the end there’s the hope for another episode. All in thirty seconds. Amazing.
