THE SECRET OF MY ENDURANCE

I still get letters in the mail, mostly from cracked-up
men in tiny rooms with factory jobs or no jobs who are
living with whores or no women at all, no hope, just
booze and madness.
Most of their letters are on lined paper
written with an unsharpened pencil
or in ink
in tiny handwriting that slants to the
left
and the paper is often torn
usually halfway up the middle
and they say they like my stuff,
I've written from where it's at, and
they recognize that. truly, I've given them a second
chance, some recognition of where they're at.

it's true, I was there, worse off than most
of them.
but I wonder if they realize where their letters
arrive?
well, they are dropped into a box
behind a six-foot hedge with a long driveway leading
to a two car garage, rose garden, fruit trees,
animals, a beautiful woman, mortgage about half
paid after a year, a new car,
fireplace and a green rug two-inches thick
with a young boy to write my stuff now,
I keep him in a ten-foot cage with a
typewriter, feed him whiskey and raw whores,
belt him pretty good three or four times
a week.
I'm 59 years old now and the critics say
my stuff is getting better than ever. 1

Mad powerful and sad song: Vladimir Vysotsky (white nights)

Vysotsky is like a russian Leonard Cohen. I remember watching the movie when I was young and the part that Barishnikov dances alone in the empty theather, to this song on a tape record, was burned in my ears. Could only find the song years later, thanks to the interwebs.

Here is one of the translations from the russian that can be found:

By the cliff, along the precipice, right over deadly ground,
With the whip, I strike my steeds; strike them hard to urge them forward.
I am getting short on air, gulp the haze, drink the wind, yet
With a fatal rapture, sensing: I am done for, I am done for!

Slow down a bit my horses, slow down, please!
Don't you listen to my stinging thong!
But the horses -- just my luck! -- are so hard to please!
Neither lived I so long, nor will I finish this song...
I will let horses drink, I'll complete this refrain,
Just a little bit more I will stay on the brink...

I will vanish from the Earth, swept by a storm like fluffy feather;
At a gallop, in the morning by the snow they'll drag me over
Can't you please prolong my journey to the end of my tether?
Can't you ease your dash, my horses, carry on a little slower?

Slow down a bit my horses, slow down, please!
Don't take orders from my whip and thong!
But the horses -- just my luck! -- are so hard to please!
Neither lived I so long, nor will I finish this song...
I will let horses drink, I'll complete this refrain,
Just a little bit more I will stay on the brink...

Just on time - one can't be late arriving at God's quarters!
Why do the angels over there sound like some nasty mortals?
Or, perhaps, it's just a sleigh-bell that's gone mad and burst out sobbing,
Or it's me shouting at my steeds to slow down my sled from dashing.

Slow down a bit my horses, slow down, please!
I am begging you, don't rush along!
But the horses -- just my luck! -- are so hard to please!
Since I haven't lived long, let me finish this song...
I will let horses drink, I'll complete this refrain,
Just a little bit more I will stay on the brink...

Following Kronos´lead, some brazilian music from Skank. The clip was very controversial when launched in Brazil and was edited down to a SFW version. This, on the other hand, is not such version.

Straight From Boing Boing Gadgets:

Charlie Sorrel has a great little post over at Gadget Lab about the ReadyBot, which he describes as "the true realization of that 1950s dream, the robot housemaid, and has everything that was predicted in that forward-looking and yet quaintly conservative age. Everything, that is, except the gingham apron and pointy, sweater-girl brassiere."

In truth, the ReadyBot seems like a slow, lazy and inefficient housekeeper: the sort who every single day takes twenty minutes to wash a single plate, all the while charging you by the hour, until you ultimately snap and paste her one, then let her go in an pecuniary disgorgement of hush money.

Still, a step in the right direction for misogyny through futurism, don't you think? A prototype of the cooking, cleaning, baby-making machine the 1950s promised us. But maybe prioritize the baby-making algorithm already, roboticists.

We wonder who is the asshole that put the two together.
Regardless, if you have your speakers on, you´ll understand why the cat quits.
