You Can't Werk
The only track on the compilation not produced by Junior Vasquez or Arthur Baker... and it was crying out for an edit.
Werk - You Can't Stop Me (from Rough House Vol. 1)
Con, then front
You know what I mean? It’s like when you’re waiting for a train and you see some mad bloke come up to you, all of a twitch, with that desperation for eye-contact that clinically sane people don’t radiate. He’s glaring at you, edging his way from the periphery of your vision. And then you recap - the past five minutes are far from clear. You were in some kind of reverie, tuned in to the headspace after the “we” of the office. Were you throwing your arms in absent –minded punctuation marks to the beats lodged in your ear? Were you chanting the tasks waiting to be tackled that evening, as you mentally wiped out one to-do list and replaced it with another? Perhaps that guy was just pulling the face everyone pulls when they’ve met some mad bloke on the platform.
Tales from the fringes of the K-T Boundary
65 million years ago, on a small greenish blue planet, several giant lizards were discussing last night's television.
"I love that Can't Hunt Won't Hunt," said the first one.
"I’m not a fan of reality TV," said the next.
"I know what you mean," agreed his friend.
The last of the great beasts considered this and said: "Shit! What’s that?"
At that moment a meteor of gargantuan proportions screamed overhead.
This was the last conversation any dinosaur ever had. Makes you think, eh?

Did you know?
- it is illegal to refuse the offer of a beer in Australia. As punishment, the president is entitled to his choice of any item from the perp's next barbecue.
- It is considered bad form to smoke outdoors in Holland as it is feared that the regular plumes of smoke may attract warring Native American Indians.
- An egg contains 90% of the recommended daily amount of yellow for an adult male. Three eggs could kill a child.
- Elephants and horses have the ability to communicate to one another in a language impenetrable to both other horses and other elephants. And mankind.
- Before DVDs were invented, people amused themselves by watching the flickering shadows of burning computers cast against the walls of abandoned cinemas by piles of melting betamax VCRs.

Orchestra Harlow - Horsin' Up (from Nu Yorica Roots)
Overheard (two from school, two from songs)
You spend the first five years trying to get with the plan
KEN: you hear they’ve started bringing in form assemblies?
CLIVE: like, an assembly where your form would be up front, orchestrating the readings, role-playing the inherent coolness but latent sinfulness of smoking - where the main element of the role play was that you were allowed to untuck your shirt - and what-knot?
KEN: nah, like grouping the school by forms so you get 7 Manning, 8 Manning, 9 Manning, 10 Manning and 11 Manning all together. It’s to promote some form of intra-form harmony, at least that’s what I’ve been told.
CLIVE: your mole on the inside.
KEN: yeah…mole.
CLIVE: won’t it just breed divisiveness?
KEN: I think that’s the sub-text. Already you’re meant to be able to see the results. Allen’s for the boffins, Wiseman has all the lithe sporting ambassadors.
CLIVE: breeding for the future…
KEN: I don’t think they gone as far to introduce breeding, they still think the rather primitive sex education, fusty atmosphere and stern looks will serve as the most effective prophylactic.
She likes to strew poppies as she wanders in your mind, so you can’t tell she’s been there.

Dating
I tried aging my friend recently. Getting the sample for the carbon dating was a bit intrusive, so I settled for lopping off one of his limbs and counting the rings (damn those fortunate species can measure the passage of time without simultaneously and abruptly halting it). Like wines and cheeses, we pick up flavours from our environment, brewing up a heady concoction for connoisseurs to appreciate. Unlike those products, we have no handy shrink-wrapped label detailing our provenance and maturing conditions, nor guides to our nose and bouquet. Here’s to constant ripening instead…

"There are people who think wrestling is an ignoble sport
Wrestling is not a sport, it is a spectacle, and it is no more ignoble to attend a wrestled performance of Suffering than a performance of the sorrows of Arnolphe or Andromaque."
Roland Barthes, The World of Wrestling (Mythologies, 1957)
