"If I could get another chance, I'd put it in a Zip-lock bag, and keep it in my pocket! Keep it in my pocket! Tell me when I start to blow it. Would you show me what I need to do before you hate me! I could never live with that so… TELL me before you're better off without me. Before you're better off without me." - "Zip-Lock" by Lit Good Afternoon, my lovelies, I have a new muse. My darlin' muse has inspired me to produce a more concentrated "Love". Kind of like concentrated orange juice. J How was your weekend, my lovelies? Without further ado, let's begin… AFTERNOON QUOTES: "What I need is a woman who is something, anything; either very beautiful or very kind or in the last resort very wicked; very witty or very stupid, but something." - Alfred De Musset "HOUSE OF LOVE" MOVIE-OF-THE-DAY/ "Goodwill Hunting": "This girl is like perfect right now. I don't want to ruin that." "Maybe you're perfect right now. Maybe you don't want to ruin that. Well, I think that's a super philosophy, Will, that way you can go through your entire life without ever really having to know anybody." - "Goodwill Hunting" (1997) "There's my number. So maybe we can go out for coffee some time." "Well, yeah, or maybe we can just get together and eat a bunch of caramels." "What do you mean?" "I mean when you think about it, it's as arbitrary as drinking coffee." - "Goodwill Hunting" (1997) DAWNY'S 2-CENTS- Your own "House of Love" editor had the pleasure of seeing this film again this weekend. It still makes me laugh and it still makes me cry. After over a decade, that ain't bad. J Next… Come on, you know what it's time for… MUSIC CORNER/more songs for your Autumn soundtrack: 1. "Angel in a Centerfold" by The J. Geils Band 2. "My Sundown" by Jimmy Eat World 3. "My Own Worst Enemy" by LIT (I'm feeling their album "A Place in the Sun", my lovelies) 4. "The Pleasure Song" by Marianne Faithfull (It's not enough she was Mick Jagger's, and every other great rockers' muse, she is a pretty cool rockin' chick herself.) 5. "Fallout" by Flourescein 6. "Mona Lisa Overdrive" by Head Candy 7. "Rebel Rebel" by David Bowie 8. "Ya Mama" by Fatboy Slim 9. "Mad World" by Tears for Fears (Does anyone know how to find the slower version from the fantastic flick "Donnie Darko"?) 10. "Only in Dreams" by Weezer 11. "Trip on Love" by Abra Moore 12. "La La Love You" by the Pixies 13. "Don't Stand so close to me" by The Police 14. "Knock Me Down" by Red Hot Chili Peppers 15. "The Only Living Boy in New York" by Simon & Garfunkel (GREAT driving song, my lovelies.) RANDOM MUSINGS: Tomorrow: Another Movie-of-the-day (And my review of "Zack and Miri Make a Porno" is coming—no pun intended), more "Music Corner", and whatever else makes your toes curl. As they say in "Annie Hall", my lovelies, this is the most fun I've ever had without laughing. UNTIL NEXT TIME…
