Old Fart MP3 Competition (6). I'm sorry. I got talked into this by Majo. Here's John Cale live with Fucking your Neighbour's Wife [4.5MB, MP3]. Cale cartoon by Chris Spedding. Enjoy. And it's all Majo's fault anyway. More on Spedding and Cale here [RealPlayer]. 4:53:16 PM     |

Kossack Patrol. Well, the MP3 competition with IT&W and Schockwellenreiter continues. Here's Ivan Rebroff with Poljuschko Polje [2.5MB, MP3]. Via No Frontin'. More tomorrow. 1:45:19 PM     |

One for Sunday. Learning languages can be difficult. Thank God there are phrasebooks. One of those is even online: The Zompist Phrasebook, teaching the most essential phrases in 8 different languages. Under 'At the Hotel': The bellboy won't score me any coke. Le groom refuse de me procurer un petit peu de came. El mozo se niega a venderme cocaína. Der Page will mir kein Koks bringen. Under 'Sightseeing': Where can I find the dissidents? Où se trouvent les dissidents ? ¿Dónde puedo encontrar a los disidentes? Wo sind hier die Dissidenten? 'At the Restaurant': One order of fermé le mercredi, please. Donnez-moi du fermé le mercredi, s'il vous plaît. Sírvame cerrado los miércoles, por favor. Einmal Mittwochs geschlossen, bitte. Of course, there's more. Many thanks to Zoe in Brussels. 8:17:08 AM     |
