    against antimatter?

    what could this possibly mean?

  • pantrus

    wow . what for ? fuck . i mean – i dont understand too much but still feels scary . feels as usual , that we want more and more instead of making what we have a bit better for everyone -

  • pantrus

    what i mean is : these people spending 2 BILLONS in more and more , should go in jail . because if they have 2 BILLONS for this but they cannot use the 2 BILLONS to save lives they are criminals – that s what i feel

    Give me the 2 BILLONS and put me in charge and you ll see how good i can do . but no . . . we want to experiment and discover further . more important than helping africans dying and people dying all over the world .

    ahhh . man . these life – what id we fucking do with it .

    Amazing office chart, one of the best. Really like some of the songs he’s posted.

    And about that anti-matter.

    here;

    It’s very interesting. And if it works, then it could be potentially, life changing.

    @ Sergey

    Thanks much! It works beautifully……

  • A troll for drfyhrhyet, pantrus, and Burial

    There are LITERALLY people on this Earth who believe they are half man and half angel(part of the fallen angels).
    They believe there is a “alien” race coming back to planet Earth and will destroy “humankind”.
    They are gathering up all the technology and creating a one world government (NWO) to combat these “aliens” before they reach Earth.
    This group of people think they are greater than all of us. We are just “evolutionary” weak humans. They are the super humans.
    They will use this technology to kill the “alien” race and then be able to leave Earth and populate the stars.
    Their leader, Buddha Matreo(Satan) has been lying to them since the beginning of time. We know him as the Father of all lies.
    That’s why they spend BILLIONS on technology and very little on the economy or trying to heal us.
    Its time to repent to Christ and seek Love. Repent for the time is near.
    I LOVE all of you and want you to return to Jesus Christ so WE can populate the universe.
    Love the Lord your God with all you heart, mind, soul, and strength and Love you neighbor as yourself.

  • Hi, and how are you today?

    Not so worried about antimatter. More worried about strangelets and microscopic black holes created by CERN.

  • somedude

    *dances*

  • booomlakalaka

    @Hi, and how are you today?

    The LHC has been running for a goooooood while now, if anything was gonna happen it would have already. The work by CERN gave you the internet, and the LHC could open the door to new physics that could change our world for the better. Dont be such an alarmist and read the facts.

  • Hi, and how are you today?

    Just because something hasn’t happened yet, doesn’t mean it won’t happen.

    In a short time, the internet won’t matter for those in the US. They have the kill-switch in place and net neutrality is officially over (under the guise of a net neutrality act nonetheless). It is just a matter of time before they begin implementing what is already on the books.

    That being said, my first comment was mainly in jest. Strangelets, microscopic black holes, and antimatter don’t keep me up at night. I’m no scaremonger.

  • p

    after all this almost out of the box cascade of news and info and fighting of nothingness . . . i just want to say . . . again . . .

    havent even heard [ yet ] the vinyl on TKOL and i still so in love [ including TB and SC ] with it and with its sounds that i want to go back to TKOL conversations : I T S A F U C K I N G G R E A T A L B U M . I cannot stop listening to it ! and no vinyl [ yet hehe ] so i hope this week i will have more and more overdoses of it when the newspaper [ hopefully ] arrives .

    radiohead you re so great .

  • lifeistao

    Has anyone in U.S. received newspaper album yet? I know I haven’t….

  • What I think

    The selections that Thom picks are absolutely Radiohead.
    He takes the best of his spin and these CRAZY ass tracks and makes them Radiohead.
    Thank you Thom for these insights into your brain.
    I was wrong. Keep making dubstep.
    If you turn all this into Radiohead. Then I love dubstep.

    Billie Holliday…. who could hate?
    Lowe…..gave me goosebumps!!!
    Awesome!

  • lifeistao

    From listening to “Chant To Mother Earth”, not sure if anyone noticed Radiohead doesn’t have much blues tune in their music, mostly are jazzy like tune. Will be nice if they take blues into a spin….. ;-)

  • Fr102

    Billie Holliday is a little out of left field.

  • Fr102

    Here I examine the best live versions of songs corresponding to their place in the catalogue. The Pablo Honey edition was posted a couple of days ago.

    That’s it, Thom’s definitely on drugs. Especially if he’s in LA. Sweet playlist (with the exception of the Dub Step stuff)

    No surprise with the Massive Attack selection

  • lifeistao

    *** Will be nice if they take blues into a spin….. ***

    I don’t know, after thought about a little further, I’m really having a hard time to picture them with bluessy tunes……

  • neto

    I wish he would listen to Manu Chao, Freddy Fender, Doug Sahm, Sir Douglas Quintet, etc… Good stuff.

  • lifeistao

    @ neto,

    No offense, but seriously? :D

  • lifeistao

    @ Fake Plastic Tunes, May 10, 2011 at 3:50 pm

    Interesting article, I guess no closure is the closure……, personally I prefer not to burn my brain out to put the puzzles together while basing on some obscure speculations, like their lyrics, could go so many directions, all depends on how we want to read into….., but still a good exercise for our brain cells. :D

  • lifeistao

    They should listen to “Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros”, not kidding!

  • neto

    No not kidding, do you even know who Manu Chao, Freddy Fender and Doug Sahm are. I mean Manu Chao, nuff said, Freddy Fender, the Chicano Elvis, he was pretty big, and Doug Sahm and the Sir Douglas Quintet, Bob Dylan is a big fan and in fact, Augie Meyers still plays keyboard, Vox, accordian since Time out of Mind and they all win grammies! Boom! do dont hate if you dont know what you are talking about!

  • lifeistao

    No, no hate here, you def. know your stuff better.

    But since you’ve mentioned Freddy Fender and Doug Sahm numerous times in the past, basing on their musical style and approach, I’m just curious why Rh needs to listen to them, in terms of exploring new musical territory, that’s all.

    :-)

  • neto

    Just because it is cool stuff.

  • neto

    I mean he listens to Billie Holiday and she is even older.

  • I want to Analyze

    A self-fulfilling prophecy
    Of endless possibility
    In rolling reams across a screen
    In algebra, in algebra

    The fences that you cannot climb
    The sentences that do not rhyme
    In all that you can ever change
    The one you’re looking for

    It gets you down
    It gets you down
    There’s no spark
    No light in the dark

    It gets you down
    It gets you down
    You traveled far
    What have you found?

    That there’s no time
    There’s no time
    To analyse
    To think things through
    To make sense

    Like candles in the city
    They never looked so pretty
    By power cuts and blackouts
    Sleeping like babies

    It gets you down
    It gets you down
    You’re just playing a part
    You’re just playing a part

    You’re playing a part
    Playing a part
    And there’s no time
    There’s no time
    To analyse
    Analyse, analyse
    Analyse……..Now my piano comes and drifts me to sleep…

    A rat done bit my sister Nell.
    (with Whitey on the moon)
    Her face and arms began to swell.
    (and Whitey’s on the moon)
    I can’t pay no doctor bill.
    (but Whitey’s on the moon)
    Ten years from now I’ll be payin’ still.
    (while Whitey’s on the moon)
    The man jus’ upped my rent las’ night.
    (’cause Whitey’s on the moon)
    No hot water, no toilets, no lights.
    (but Whitey’s on the moon)
    I wonder why he’s uppi’ me?
    (’cause Whitey’s on the moon?)
    I wuz already payin’ ‘im fifty a week.
    (with Whitey on the moon)
    Taxes takin’ my whole damn check,
    Junkies makin’ me a nervous wreck,
    The price of food is goin’ up,
    An’ as if all that shit wuzn’t enough:
    A rat done bit my sister Nell.
    (with Whitey on the moon)
    Her face an’ arm began to swell.
    (but Whitey’s on the moon)
    Was all that money I made las’ year
    (for Whitey on the moon?)
    How come there ain’t no money here?
    (Hmm! Whitey’s on the moon)
    Y’know I jus’ ’bout had my fill
    (of Whitey on the moon)
    I think I’ll sen’ these doctor bills,
    Airmail special
    (to Whitey on the moon)

    “Whitey on the moon – Gil Scott-Heron”

    Haha…. good one!

  • neto

    Yea there is something to be said about being cryptic in songs with regards to politics, but there is also something really refreshing about expressing yourself in plain words, i.e. “Fight The Power”, “The Revolution will not be Televised”, etc, etc,etc. I miss that kind of music, no one really does it anymore, except Manu Chao.

  • lifeistao

    That’s so true, I also like songs just in plain words, it just makes us feel good….,

    Michael Franti & Spearhead older stuff like “Stay Human”, “Everyone Deserves Music” kind of remind me of Gil Scott-Heron.

    Mexican Americans don’t like to just get into gang fights,
    they like flowers and music and white girls named Debbie too.

    Mexican Americans are named Chata and Chella and chemma
    and have a son in law named jeff.

    Mexican Americans don’t like to get up early in the morning
    but they have to so they do it real slow.

    Mexican Americans love education so they go to night school
    and take spanish and get a B.

    Mexican Americans love their Nana’s and their Nono’s and their
    Nina’s and their Nino’s…….. Nano Nano Nina Nono!

    Mexican Americans don’t like to go to the movies where the
    dude has to wear contact lenses to make his blue eyes brown
    cause don’t it make my brown eyes blue…..

    I don’t eat red meat but I’m not a vegetarian
    I like ice cream/ but not much dairy
    ’cause it gets in my nose
    it makes me gotta blows
    snot like a farmer and it gets on my clothes
    it’s rather unsightly/ can even be frightening
    but cold medication/ should not be taken nightly
    because everything dat I put in/ it comes out again
    and if I eat lean/ it helps me stay thin
    check out my hair, I keep it dreaded
    about my corn? I like it breaded
    hot from the oven? MMMM! you said it!
    straight to the stomach my fuel is unleaded
    But not fossil fuels/ I like olive oil
    I like my eggs scrambled/ I never eat ‘em boiled
    The way to my heart/ is with a garlic clove
    it smells hella sexy/ when it’s on the kitchen stove

    (chorus)
    Red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice,
    make everything nice
    red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice
    I could eat a plate twice. So nice. So nice. So nice.

    Most people on the planet/ eat beans and rice
    some can’t afford beef or they think cows are nice
    If you talk table manners don’t believe all they
    told ya I eat with my fingers like an African soldier
    I don’t know which fork is for meat or for salad
    I haven’t got a clue when they say “whet your palate”
    eat a lot a prunes it’ll keep you loose
    skin’ll turn orange if you drink carrot juice
    I think beef jerky tastes like a boot
    when I’m on the street I chew a licorice root
    and if I have a soar throat /then I eat ginger
    and I will break bread /with those who are strangers
    so come into my cave / tonight I will show you
    food is for life / and life I will show you.
    If you’re havin’ problems/ I invite you here
    step into my kitchen /we will cook away your fears

    (chorus)

    Amazing grace how sweet the sound that
    saved a wretch like me
    Dammit let’s eat!
    Mi casa es su casa. Mi cocina es su cocina.
    you know what I meana!

    (bridge)
    get some boilin’ water! Yeah!
    get a pound aof beans! Yeah!
    get some spice and make it nice! Yeah!
    you know what I mean!

    But if a friend has gas /then he’s passin’
    it gives me a headache end I gotta take aspirin
    it makes me dizzy/ I fix him fizzies
    to calm his stomach/ when it’s feelin kinda
    busy some like it white/but I like it brown
    I like spicy chicken/ and I can throw it down
    chilis come red /and chilis come green
    when it’s on the table/ I lick my plate clean
    Then I drink a toast to the host and hostess
    But first we give thanks/ to God the Mostest
    ’cause if I am a guest/ I always wash my plate
    sip a sip a soda while I sing Amazing Grace
    rings on my fingers /left round the tub
    bass fulla bubbles/ bumpin like a wash tub
    think about my troubles/ goin down the drain
    dryin’ up the puddles in the back of my brain
    But…

    (chorus)

    (bridge)

    :D

  • lifeistao

    Yeah, sing the song, Bro’

    If the sun refuse to shine,
    I don’t mind, I don’t mind,
    If the mountains fell in the sea,
    let it be, it ain’t me.
    Alright, ‘cos I got my own world to look through,
    And I ain’t gonna copy you.

    Now if 6 turned out to be 9,
    I don’t mind, I don’t mind,
    Alright, if all the hippies cut off all their hair,
    I don’t care, I don’t care.
    Dig, ‘cos I got my own world to live through
    And I ain’t gonna copy you.

    White collared conservative flashing down the street,

    Pointing their plastic finger at me.
    They’re hoping soon my kind will drop and die,
    But I’m gonna wave my freak flag high, high.
    Wave on, wave on
    Fall mountains, just don’t fall on me
    Go ahead on Mr. Business man, you can’t dress like me.
    Sing on Brother, play on drummer.

    I was just seeking this information for a while. After six hours of continuous Googleing, at last I got it in your web site. I wonder what is the lack of Google strategy that don’t rank this kind of informative web sites in top of the list. Generally the top sites are full of garbage.
