Having nothing to say, no words but the words of others, I have to speak

I'm looking in the mirror and I have a dog's head. It's a small dog, rather well-groomed, with a bear-like snub nose and golden-brown hair. I have to go somewhere, see an art exhibition in rural Turkey, catch a train to the mountains... Oh, wait, that was a dream. I've woken up. I don't feel so great in the mornings -- a bit stiff.

your blog has been a great inspiration for me
sorry to see you go, though it does add to the mystery

Dr Ben's Momus bit on Quote Unquote (mp3, 2.4MB, 3mins 13secs)

Those lyrics, in full:

Seven million people died in the Great War
A bout of influenza quadrupled that score
Why pimp to posterity, why should they admire us?
All the heroes of Valhalla weigh less than a virus
(Morality is Vanity)

And when she left me I felt no jealousy
For company I had this fantasy
I imagined her without me in ecstasy
Alone or amongst women only
(Amongst Women Only)

My sperm is not your enemy
Hold it in your hand
You hold -- you know it's true --
The future of Man!
(My Sperm is not Your Enemy)

golly this showed up in the google alert i have set for my name rather quickly.
i haven't been here in a while, but i'm sad that it will be over.
incidentally, i just started a new blog but i don't want to call it a blog and it is SECRET (in all caps).

Well Nick, its been a pleasure. I shall look forward to your return under the essay guise. I'd also like to let you know that my friend Selwyn Harris managed to mention you in his feature piece with Seb Roachford in this months Jazzwise. Keith

Merci, Nick!

Mais tu pourrais continuer le principe du blog, différemment. C'est extrême, un arrêt brutal. Ton blog est nécessaire, il est tout à faut unique en son genre et donne des perspectives à beaucoup de gens. Tu pourrais peut-être trouver une formule différente; pas tous les jours? Avec des participations? Ou bien plusieurs blogs?

Enfin, c'est mon avis...

Merci encore,

Gilles
