starman (david bowie)

who knew our llama starman had a song?

Goodbye love
Didn’t know what time it was the lights were low oh how
I leaned back on my radio oh oh
Some cat was layin’ down some rock ‘n’ roll ‘lotta soul, he said
Then the loud sound did seem to fade a ade
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase ha hase
That weren’t no D.J. that was hazy cosmic jive

There’s a starman waiting in the sky
He’d like to come and meet us
But he thinks he’d blow our minds
There’s a starman waiting in the sky
He’s told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it’s all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

I had to phone someone so I picked on you ho ho
Hey, that’s far out so you heard him too! o o
Switch on the TV we may pick him up on channel two
Look out your window I can see his light a ight
If we can sparkle he may land tonight a ight
Don’t tell your poppa or he’ll get us locked up in fright

There’s a starman waiting in the sky
He’d like to come and meet us
But he thinks he’d blow our minds
There’s a starman waiting in the sky
He’s told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it’s all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

Starman waiting in the sky
He’d like to come and meet us
But he thinks he’d blow our minds
There’s a starman waiting in the sky
He’s told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it’s all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

while i agree that human life and animal life should be treated as equal (we’re all animals after all), i think the ad is exploiting the victim and his family to further peta’s agenda. plus, i can’t see it being well received in the  community where mclean’s family is from.

this is easily my new favourite video.

3g iphone is mine!

well, i didn’t have to wait in line overnight like some folks (i can see a rogers store and a fido store from my window, people were there from 8pm last night onwards). i called fido first thing, waited on hold 30 minutes, then ordered my new phone from the comfort of my bed. i kept my cityfido plan (unlimited local calls) too.

should have it weds or thurs. woo!

job applications

graphic designers/programmers: next time you apply for a job, it’d help if you spelled my company name correctly. it’s not “thirtytwo”, as far as i know they make snowboarding stuff (and who knows, they might be hiring).

it’s also not “TwoThirty Studios” or “Twothirty Designs”. there’s no word after twothirty, and also, twothirty has no capital letters.

oh and one more thing, if there’s no job postings, that’s because we’re not hiring. and come on, take the time to figure out the company name. that’s almost as bad as sending out resumes with 20 other design firms CC’ed on the email (and yes, that happens more often than you’d think).

starman


last year we adopted a llama named starman, who was abused for most of his life but now lives at the stillpointe llama sanctuary. this weekend we were lucky enough to visit him, and the rest of the herd.
