Men in the military, you better be careful. On base, showering together, sleeping together, drinking together, getting horny together, furtively glancing at each other’s cocks. You better watch out. There’s a lot of jerking among these High-T wild animals 😵💫
I’m personally going to weigh the testicles of every warrior in the USA military to ensure our men and women have what it takes to fire missiles from hundreds of miles away - Pete Hegit, Department of Freudian Suspensions.
Celibate Rifles - Sideroxylon. This #vinyl been in the family for 43 years, our Prime Minister used to go to their gigs.
The Interrogations by Richard Overy? This is a must read, and provides not just transcripts but important info that the film glossed over (hard to achieve in 120 minutes).
The film Nuremberg was just US bullshit. US refuses to sign treaty on war crimes and now Unremarkable Rubio wants to abolish International Criminal Court. US and Russia look like twins.
In a bookstore today - The Amazing Adventures of Cavalier and Clay was filed in Non-Fiction. Far out, I so hope it was a true story 😅
The hidden secrets we indulge in when the family is out at a sporting event… #FrankZappa #MusicSky
There are 'go-to' discs/LPs I use to test speakers. Gene Clark - No Other is one. Guardian called it "One of the greatest albums ever made. Initially celebrated for its obscurity, now celebrated for its magnificence.. a magnum opus: epic, sprawling, poetic, choral, rococo." #MusicSky #GeneClark
Got the stereo sounding just about right. Tannoy Bradley SL65, a bit or repositioning made huge difference. #Stereo
Got the entire family cooking together with some prime Jerry Garcia {1991}. Had to listen to Bsd Bunny first, which was excellent too. #MusicSky
Almost 20 years ago, made a tape of my pick from Jefferson Airplane offshoots. #MusicSky #JeffersonAirplane #GraceSlick
Gerry Mulligan- Paris Concert. Making a work day that much more enjoyable. #JazzSky
Marilyn and Her Books by Gail Crowther. Fascinating study of fame, literature, misogyny, collecting, reading and owning books. Every page offers a delightful insights. #BookSky #MarilynMonroe
#FIFA President Gianni Infantino and US President Donald Trump discuss America’s next #WorldCup2026 fixture.
One of the best Jerry Garcia Band iterations IMO. The piano playing of Keith Godchaux is out of this world, showcasing his sublime touch rarely heard in Grateful Dead. #MusicSky #JerryGarcia #GratefulDead
The entire household has been informed of 4 am start. Tempted to make them polish their boots, make their beds and be in uniform.
Modern Jazz Quartet released this minor masterpiece on Apple Records in 1968. #JazzSky
Donnie Dark screened on SBS last night. Tried to explain this brilliant film to a young woman at work. Reckon she reported me to HR. #MovieSky #DonnieDarko
Starting the chilli, potato and black bean stir fry (thanks Kylie Kwong) with a terrific Jerry Garcia Band 1975, featuring Nicky Hopkins. #MusicSky #JerryGarcia
Antifa vandals have slit a hole in Lake Burley Griffin in Canberra, Australia’s capital city, and now water is gushing everywhere. #Auspol #ReflectingLake #Canberra #WheresDonnie
The Beast is back from the doctors. #Luxman #amplifier #stereo #playloud
NatCon is apt name. This is what Barnaby Joyce looks like today - and this is the image they’re using to promote him. It’s .. Trump like 😂 #Auspol #OneNation #alcohol
Won't be long before Trump exposes who's responsible for Reflecting Pool vandalism. #Punk. #Trump #ReflectingPool
Found a CD comp made for a friend’s party many years ago - not a bad bunch of songs. #MusicSky
