Fahrt durchs tief verschneite Mühlviertel



Wenn du von einem Labyrinth hörst, Fremdling, das Salomon aus seinem Geiste gebildet und mit im Bogen aneinander gesetzten Steinen erbaut hat: Dessen Gefüge, Figur und Vielfalt zeichne mit Strichen von dunkler Tinte maßstabgetreu nach, betrachte dabei die unzähligen Windungen, nämlich die kreisrunden Bahnen, die von innen nach außen führen und sich von dort wieder bogenförmig nach innen winden, und erkenne darin den kreisförmigen Lauf des Lebens...
Fahrt durchs tief verschneite Mühlviertel



Schwester Renate bleibt immer noch standhaft. Keine Schoki in der Fastenzeit.
by Michael Penn
I count the cases piled up high
For the 1:15.
For platform and for passerby
It's the same routine.
I'm ranting while I’m raving,
There's nothing here worth saving.
Tell me now, what more do you need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've lost the will for fighting
Over everything.
Well there's a few things I gotta say
And make no mistake, I'm mad…
'Cause every good thing I've had
Abandoned me.
All I want to do is hide.
It's graduation day
And everything I learned inside
Didn't seem to pay.
I've had my fill of palm trees
And lighting up Grauman's Chinese.
Tell me now, what more do you need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've lost the will for fighting
Over everything
And there's a few things I gotta say.
Make no mistake, I'm mad.
'Cause every good thing I had
Abandoned me.
A sad and lonesome me.
I'm the walking wounded
And I'd say it to your face
But I can't find my place.
So tell me now, what more do you need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've lost the will for fighting
Over everything
And there's a few things I gotta say.
Make no mistake, I'm mad
'Cause every good thing I had
Abandoned me.
A sad and lonesome me.
A sad and lonesome me.
A sad and lonesome me.
This song contains an extended metaphor that compares a dejected man frustrated by fighting with his partner to a wounded soldier. "Walter Reed" is an allusion to the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, which is part of a health care system operated by the U.S. Army. A broken heart rarely requires hospitalization, so Michael's request to be taken to Walter Reed is hyperbolic. Given its purpose as a place to heal when the fighting stops, Walter Reed functions as a natural subject for Penn, whose characters frequently beg for respite from love that feels like war.
Though in demand as a composer of movie scores, Michael Penn is still often overshadowed by his brother Sean and his wife, singer-songwriter Aimee Mann.
Heute verdient sie ihren Lebensunterhalt damit, zu schreiben was sie über andere denkt. Und das wird vervielfältigt und gedruckt. Nur selber unter der Türe durchschieben muss sie es nicht mehr. Das macht der Briefträger. Stil und Orthographie haben sich auch weiterentwickelt. Ich bin stolz, ganz am Anfang dieser Entwicklung gestanden zu haben. Quasi erste Leserin.
Die Rache des Journalisten ist das Archiv.
Die Rache der Familie ist das Fotoalbum.

Superheros
by Stephen Lynch
If I could be a Superhero,
I would be Awesome Man.
I'd fly around the world fighting crime
According to my Awesome Plan.
And if I saw criminals trying to lie
Hurting other people and making them cry
I'd haul them off to jail in my Awesome Van.
Because I would be Awesome Man.
(Now some criminals want you to be a criminal, and they offer you things like drugs and alcohol, but we know what to do kids, we just say no.)
If I could be a Superhero,
I would be Drug-Free Boy.
Telling the world of the evils of drugs,
and the lives that they destroy.
well I'd take all the junkies getting so high
With their needles and bongs and sticks made of thai
as I'd burn them alive and I would squeal with joy.
'Cause I would be Drug-Free Boy.
If I could be a Superhero,
I'd be Immigration Dude
I'd send all the foreigners back to their homes
For eating up all of our food
And taking our welfare and best jobs to boot
Like landscaping, dishwashing, picking our fruit
I'd pass lots of laws to get rid of their brood
Becasue I would be Immigration Dude.
(Kids, you can make up your very own superhero. If you could, who would you be?)
If you could be a Superhero,
Would you be Justice Guy?
Making sure people get what they deserve,
Especially women who lie
Like if a wife left her huband with three kids and no job
To run off to f...ing Hawaii with some doctor named Bob
You could skin them and drain them of blood til they die
Especially Bob
Then you would be Justice Guy
Or you could be subtle, I didn't mean to be vague
Give her Mad Cow disease, let him die of the plague
As long as they suffer for their terrible lie
Especially Bob
Then you would be Justice Guy.
Then you would be a Superhero, like me.
Schule ist sehr lustig. Für die Eltern.

Natürlich konnte Kimmel diese Schmach nicht auf sich sitzen lassen. Seine Antwort auf Silvermans Lied ist ein Musikvideo allererster Güte. An dieser Stelle wollen wir nicht zu viel verraten, nur so viel: Damons langjähriger Busenkumpel Ben Affleck spielt keine unwesentliche Rolle dabei.
Wofür unsere armen südafrikanischen Freunde ein Boot und einen ganzen See brauchen, genügt uns ein Hügerl und etwas Schnee. Der Spass ist der gleiche. Marginal mehr Bekleidung.
