4 Great items on Amazon.com
CLOSER by Patrick Marber
this is the play. the movie came from the play.
The Concert for Bangladesh- George Harrison and Friends (1971)
has George Harrison, Eric Clapton (though they said he was palying weakly and looked out of it), Bob Dylan, Ringo Starr, Ravi Shankar (George Harrison's good friend, a guru, and Norah Jones' father!) Review by amazon's reviewer: 1971 was a bleak period in rock history; the Beatles had broken up, Hendrix, Joplin, and Morrison were dead, Woodstock was a distant memory. The Concert for Bangladesh shone like a beacon, a revelation of the better angels that reside within us all. And it still does.
CONCERT FOR GEORGE
Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney, Ringo, Monty Python, Ravi Shankar play George Harrison songs (something, here comes the sun, while my guitar gently weeps) after he died and all the reviews say it's totally fantastic and sad. This woman went to watch it in a theatre and she said there was so little publicity she was the only one there but then she could laugh and sing to herself.
Beatles Anthology (by the beatles except john lennon who was dead)
sounds awesome. it has 8 discs and has everything and anything about the beatles with paul, george and ringo spending a summer's day together 'playing, singing and warmly remembering the early days' (as 50 plus year old men) and they recall john and george cries and they release 2 of his songs as beatles songs and someone said everything is interwoven beautifully and this kid gave this totally ecstatic, slightly psychotic review with at least 30 exclamations, talking about how he loves george and how tape 8 is 'so sad!!!!!!!' because it's their breakup and paul and george quarrel and the funniest thing is that he says he watched it a hundred times literally (kids count these things) and he's still not bored with it and he says 'Thank you, and have a very Beatle-filled night.'
They all sound FANTASTIC and that's before I have even explored other stuff like simon and garfunkel and the mamas and the papas. Is anyone interested?! The details that people mention are just great to hear. The day has barely begun but john mayer's cd is ending like a sad cycle.

I watched Harry Potter. It was crazy, marvellous, delicious and
WICKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
('MERCI!')
Is it a new trend in harry potter for everyone to have shaggy hair??
That day I had a dream that this guy that I've never even spoken to, from a53, was hanging around my house with me and my brother. He kept sitting at our computers watching gilmore girls crazily and going to gilmore girls websites, definitely a fan. A rat came out from my mother's tv, and i screamed for help. He was annoyed that I disrupted gilmore girls when lorelai was talking to luke. He stood at the door to my mother's room and went 'can you not be so SAPIENT?!' I have no idea what that word means, or if it is a word at all, but in my dream it meant uptight. And I very rightly went 'i know, but I can't help it!' and it was funny seeing him skulking around school the next day.
Hair guy told me that getting red hair will mean red foam when bathing.
There's a Benrik day that is 'Voice-out-all-your-thoughts day. Take the proverbs "speak your mind" and "say what you think" to the limit'
I just want to wake up tomorrow and take a rollercoaster repeatedly.
P.S. just been informed by dictionary.com that sapient means having great wisdom and discernment. I just can't comprehend the dream at all.

Welcome to wherever you are
Notice the guys in Harry Potter all have these shaggy sort of sexy male mops. harry, ron, fred, george. what is with them?! shaggy, styled, messy, floppy, curly, sticking out. intriguing.
KENDRA WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!
Donald Trump (during the recap): "In week __, I fired Erin because she flirted with me." The poor 3 stooges. Brian and Chris are like little tubby dwarves sitting next to the wicked high witch Kirsten, who isn't wearing the 'cheesy hats' that her little dwarves were telling her was ugly.
Yesterday the 3 year old baby told me 'ssshsut upb' and i said 'what did you tell me????? what did you tell me??!???!!???' and she considered this a while and smiled and said 'i say keep quaiyet'. her 6 year old brother during dinner was running around with the other 4 (older brother, sister and cousins) and he was victimized as he was the youngest and he suddenly pointed at his older brother and shouted 'you got big penis!' time seemed crazily frozen though without that membrane feeling, and i didn't know whether to laugh to myself (assuming the adults didn't hear it) or to scream. in the end i looked at my uncle to see if he heard and he was looking at them and smirked a little. No!!!!!! i told my auntie and SHE was semi frozen for about half an hour after that.
It doesn't feel like there are a levels tomorrow. To hell with it till i awake.
