LRT
Were you bullied at school, find no sense of authority
did you look a bit funny
were you too stupid to join the police, too fat to join the forces
Ladies! Do you look like a stereotypical Dyke
Got a couple of anchor tattoos and a low parting boys?
If you've got no way with people whats so ever
Hate cyclists, motorist and users of public transport
And would really rather be driving a big shiney tank somewhere
We've the job for you

Telescopes/e.a.r gig
went to a gig last week, here's me typing bout it
so i walked in late, part way through the E.A.R set (it were meant to be a Fuxa Set but some mirthsome episode happened at the airport that ended with Fuxa dude being sent to the london bombers prison, then being deported):
When i got there the man Boom were stood in from off some stuff; 2 box's with wires sticking out, an electrical thing and a children's electrical thing
It were hard to tell at points if maybe, he lost his rolly , his wires broke or the children's electrical thing stopped working (he audibly pulled the wire out at one point) or if he were actually playing stuff.
he seemed to be playing a tone and fucking with it. a pretty fine tone it were too. Which got loader but quieter to the end. Sounded ace, bit like the orb with out drums or the first 10mins of a MELA gig.
the Telescopes, what can i say, there were four or five guitars on stages being played but only 3 people. They amped up a projector to use as the rhythm on a tune,. the main dude had a guitar lying on a table , with crocodile clip's attached to some strings that he would flick on occasion, connected too a couple of boxes he would at times play it with a bow and a electronic fan, he would sing.
A lass sat at the back with a guitar and sorta played normally whilst singing.
The other dude had a thermaline (that electrical thing that reacts to your hands being close to it, you know the pixies used it in veloria), had a bass on a stand being played by a hand held fan on a mike stand. At one point he feed the bass amp into its-self and played the feedback#
Wierds gig ive seen, one of the better ones to listen to

work
You see working in my profession you normally get 2 types of response when people always ask that question “what do you do” (I work with homeless/vulnerable young people in Edinburgh, Supported Accommodation and Tenancy support).
The more interesting response is from people that have been in the forces; the people I work with would be well suited to joining up. First I should say that my politics sort of go against that (although I would never say that to someone I worked with unless they asked me “what do you think”), being shouted at from 4.30 in the morning then paying someone to shine your shoes might not suit some of my clients. However I can see there point; A lot of the young people I work with are leaving, or at least have been in care, an institution, and what you tend to find is that once someone has been care, in an institution and then have to leave (kids in Scotland should be able to stay in Care up until they turn 19, in reality they are still kicked out when they turn 16), they move to another institution, these institutions could be; the h4ealth service or the police; more times than not they then to be the armed forces or prison.
The other and more common response is “that must be so rewarding”.
How should I respond?
I’ve often thought that something like
“..Its ok, it can be hard, I might make a difference… but I don’t like to talk about it…” might work with the ladies
However, what I normally do is. Cringe. And say
“Yes it is rewarding, on the 25th of every month, they reward me straight to me bank account and I get me own desk….”
“And sometimes, someone you work with says “thanks”, and that’s quite cool

Leith
The things you see
I was going home about 9ish, on the bus and we stopped at the foot o the walk. There were a women stood on a sidestreet looking in through a window into a seemingly empty bank pleasuring an umbrella.
I looked away, thought about it, then looked back.
She were then pleasuring, in a similar way, a bottle of wine in a scotmid bag, through the same window into the same empty bank. The bus then drove off.
Obviously I got off at the next stop and went back to see
She had gone

Katrina
What happened there was really bad, really horrible. It was no more and no less horrible than the number of natural disasters that happen each year.
What happened afterwards were distressing, for the country which seeks to invade and dictate democracy; to turn black people into looters and whites into people trying to scavenge food; that people that try to rescue others are branded racist; that armed gangs are shooting down aircraft; for the fact that when I heard it had happened to this country I again felt little but Sinicism: For this I get worried, it distresses me.
I hope all other people from all other nations can empathise with the US, let us help with this as we would any other disaster.
And maybe there can be some good out of this. Maybe the country that builds cities 6 feet under sea level will start taking more interest in the poisons it spews out, will stop using agreements as chips to further exploit other less privileged nations. Maybe, just maybe they could hire skilled and highly trained workers from Iraq and Afghanistan to come and help rebuild the US.
