Stunned about that. You'd think he'd be the type to go on forever. Never seemed to age.

Someone once gave me Supertramp's Breakfast in America album. It made a very fine (one time) frisbee.

An album I associate strongly with a surfing trip on Yorks way back then. That and Gary Wright's Dream Weaver for some reason. Wow, just played a bit of the latter off of YouTube and it was frighteningly evocative. Like getting in a time-machine.

One of my earliest conquests when learning electric guitar was Ziggy Stardust. A rock and roll staple.

RIP David Bowie

That was used in one of the Shrek movies, probably one of the last times we took the kids to the pictures. When we got home I pulled out Hunky Dory and played the original. Simultaneously probably one of the last times I impressed my kids.

A couple of movies I've seen in the last year or so that have David Bowie songs in their soundtrack;

Walter Mitty (2013), Space Oddity performed by David Bowie and Kristen Wiig



The Martian (2015), Starman, the David Bowie original

It was funny, a couple of nights ago i was laughing at David Bowie and the codpiece he wore in Labyrinth.

I was genuinely saddened and shocked when i heard the news yesterday.

As a little kid I didn't think anything of it, having seen it a few times since it makes the scenes with a 16-year old Jennifer Connolly all the more... interesting.

Why are baleen whales called baleen whales, they eat shitloads of krill so why are they not called Krillawhales.

I'll get my coat.

**** me, I think this might be bigger than Bowie or Esendon, Rupert Murdoch has announced his engagement to Jerry Hall!!

 

[I Dont Care]

I hate that there is an Essendon icon banner thing on our board page. That shit stinks

See Jerry Hall at 2 minutes exactly, where she is told that in years to come she will marry an elderly billionaire.

And now the marriage vow is very sacred ......

Wait what happened to the broad who unleashed her fists of fury on that dude who crashed the phone hacking hearing?

She was a keeper.

He gave her the flick and lots of cash and assets about 2 or 3 years ago. Their daughter is protected and gets a slice of the empire down the track. I think the age difference caught up with them, plus she did her job and got News Corp into China for him in a big way.

By that logic should we be feeding murderers to killer whales?
