SDog's musings and meanderings ...

New Order - Blue Monday



How does it feel
To treat me like you do
When you've laid laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are

I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how do I feel

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They will turn away no more

And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today

I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortunes
I'd be a heavenly person today

And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how should I feel

Now I stand here waiting

I thought I told you to leave me
While I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold

New Order - Sub-Culture



I like walking in the park
When it gets late at night
I move `round in the dark
And leave when it gets light
I sit around by day
Tied up in chains so tight
These crazy words of mine
So wrong they could be
What do I get out of this?
I always try, I always miss
One of these days you'll go back to your home
You won't even notice that you are alone
One of these days when you sit by yourself
You'll realise you can't shaft without someone else
In the end you will submit
It's got to hurt a little bit

I like talking in my sleep
When people work so hard
They need what they can't keep
A choice that leaves them scarred
A room without a view
Unveils the truth so soon
And when the sun goes down
You've lost what you had
What do I get out of this?
I always try, I always miss
One of these days you'll go back to your home
You won't even notice that you are alone
One of these days when you sit by yourself
You'll realise you can't shaft without someone else
In the end you will submit
It's got to hurt a little bit

New Order - True Faith



I feel so extraordinary
Something's got a hold on me
I get this feeling I'm in motion
A sudden sense of liberty
I don't care 'cause I'm not there
And I don't care if I'm here tomorrow
Again and again I've taken too much
Of the things that cost you too much
I used to think that the day would never come
I'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear
I used to think that the day would never come
That my life would depend on the morning sun...

When I was a very small boy,
Very small boys talked to me
Now that we've grown up together
They're afraid of what they see
That's the price that we all pay
Our valued destiny comes to nothing
I can't tell you where we're going
I guess there was just no way of knowing
I used to think that the day would never come
I'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear
I used to think that the day would never come
That my life would depend on the morning sun...

I feel so extraordinary
Something's got a hold on me
I get this feeling I'm in motion
A sudden sense of liberty
The chances are we've gone too far
You took my time and you took my money
Now I fear you've left me standing
In a world that's so demanding
I used to think that the day would never come
I'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear
I used to think that the day would never come
That my life would depend on the morning sun...

Depeche Mode - Lie to Me



Come on and lay with me
Come on and lie to me
Tell me you love me
Say I'm the only one

Experiences have a lasting impression
But words once spoken
Don't mean a lot now
Belief is the way
The way of the innocent
And when I say innocent
I should say naive
So lie to me
But do it with sincerity
Make me listen
Just for a minute
Make me think
There's some truth in it

Promises made for convenience
Aren't necessarily
What we need
Truth is a word
That's lost its meaning
The truth has become
Merely half-truth
So lie to me
Like they do it in the factory
Make me think
That at the end of the day
Some great reward
Will be coming my way

Depeche Mode - Never Let Me Down Again



I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never let's me down again
He knows where he's taking me
Taking me where I want to be
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend

We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground

I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never let's me down again
Promises me I'm as safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing to trousers
I hope he never let's me down again

Never let me down

See the stars, they're shining bright
Everything's alright tonight

Depeche Mode - Policy of Truth



You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn't you?
Now you're not satisfied
With what you're being put through

It's just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth

Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilized
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you'd only lied

It's too late to change events
It's time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth

Never again
Is what you swore
The time before

Never again
Is what you swore
The time before

Now you're standing there tongue tied
You better learn your lesson well
Hide what you have to hide
And tell what you have to tell

You'll see your problems multiplied
If you continually decide
To faithfully pursue
The policy of truth

Never again
Is what you swore
The time before

Pet Shop Boys - I'm not Scared



Your life's a mystery, mine is an open book
If I could read your mind, I think I'd take a look
I'm not scared
Baby, I don't care

What have you got to hide? What do you need to prove?
You're always telling lies, and that's the only truth
I don't care
Baby, I'm not scared

Tonight the streets are full of actors
I don't know why
Oh, take these dogs away from me
Before they, they bite

What have you got to say of shadows in the past?
I thought that, if you paid, you'd keep them off our backs
Where do we have to be, so I can laugh and you'll be free?
I'd go anywhere
Baby, I don't care
I'm not scared

Tonight the streets are full of actors
I don't know why
Oh, debarasse-moi de ces chiens
Avant qu'ils mordent
Avant qu'ils mordent
Tonight I fought and made my mind up
I know it's right
I know these dogs still snap around me
But I can, I can fight

If I was you, if I was you
I wouldn't treat me the way you do
If I was you, if I was you
I wouldn't treat me the way you do - you
If I was you, if I was you
I wouldn't treat me the way you do
If I was you, if I was you
I wouldn't treat me the way you do - you

I'm not scared
Baby, I don't care
I'd go anywhere
Baby, I'm not scared
J'ai pas peur
J'ai pas peur
I'm not scared

Massive Attack - Safe From Harm

Gunmen and maniacs
All will feature on the freakshow

To see me lookin` back at you

To see me lookin back at you

But if you hurt what`s mine
I`ll sure as hell retaliate
You can free the world you can free my mind
Just as long as my baby`s safe from harm tonight

Citizen Cope - Son's Gonna Rise



Rollin' down the highway
Like a rocket
Headed to town now
You can't stop it
Got wheel in my hand
As I stand
On the floor
Of the board
Of this car
On the road
Got this woman in the back seat
Yeah she's my wifey
In the middle of the delivery
Man she saves me
To this day I don't know why
She picked me up
When i was down on the road
With the wind when it blowed

Well a son's gonna rise in a mile
In a mile
In a mile
You'll be feeling fine
In a mile you will see
After me
You'll be out of the dark, yeah
You'll get your shot

Citizen Cope - Pablo Picasso



The woman that I love
Is forty feet tall
She's a movie star
She's all in the papers
And everywhere i go
People hand me quarters
And they pat me on the back
They treat me like im famous
I'll never leave her side
'Cause today can be dangerous
And when the night arrives
The light hit her features
And the cars drive by
Just so they could see her
And she never bats an eye
When someone takes her picture

Mr.Officer if you've come to take her
Then that means one of us
Gonna end up in a stretcher
Gonna end up in the papers, going end up in the papers, yeah

If i had a pistol
I'd brandish it and wave it
She's the only one alive that knows that I'm not crazy
She's gonna testify on my behalf
Down at the Navy
So I can get some peace
And provide for my babies
I got a stick and a bottle
I'll pretend I got a razor
Helicopters and cameras all shottin' for the station
They say that a wild man defending his lady
But for some odd reason they keep calling you a painting

BEST MOVIE EVER!!!

LOL!!!

I'm in lust! Kept waiting for his gray shorts to slip off...but, then there'd likely be more shortcomings, and further diappointment anyways....

Still, maybe he can weave some of that guy's scalp hair into mine, just a little on the top, please.

Thank you very much.

Lemme know if this one goes too far....

(Heck, if it hasn't been taken down from UTube?????)

Bonus points for those that can spot the continuity problems....(in honor of 'Oscar" night).

Like I need an excuse to break this one out, but...

Well, less than a week and we here in the USA switch back over to Daylight Saving Time (sometimes called "Summer Time" in other parts of the English-speaking World).

The DelMarVa region (Delaware/Maryland/Virginia) received, I believe, a close-to-record amount of snow this winter --- at least, after several years of very mild winters, it seemed like a shock, for a while.

Of course, those in more Northern climes might just laugh at us weaklings, but still. It's a pain, sometimes.

For some comic relief on this topic, someone showed me this:

Diary of a Snow Shoveler

As funny as the video is btw, there are a lot of elements there which spurred the advent of the house music genre. Keeping in mind that this was made in 19821 it's actually not that bad.

Oh my ... ww, when did you shoot this video?

reply to post by schrodingers dog


LOL!!!! (wiping away tears of laughter...)

I am sooooo embarassed for poor Tom, there!

Bet he gets teased mercilessly every time he goes to work!!

Oh, my...funny, funny stuff.


Now, the geek in me can't resist. One scene there brought back memories of MY days flying the MD-80. I really hated that airplane, to tell the truth. But, for the left seat, pay was mid-range (just below our wide-body pay scale) so that helped. Still, too cramped up front...it is just a glorified DC-9, after all. Stretched, with better avionics and bigger engines.

But the scene? It's the 'wing ice check' requirement. Yup! Those brilliant engineers designed an airplane that, in some atmospheric and environmental conditions, would form a thin layer of ice on TOP of the wings, when it was refueled. You've probably seen this being done, watching from the terminal, and wondered about it? Several fixes were attempted, including an electric 'blanket'...not kidding! Not a woolen blanket, of course...

The thing became so problematic, it was just easier to mandate a wing-ice check before EVERY flight, when fuel had been added. Just to be safe. Had to be a physical check, not just visual.

Silly, huh?

Just wanted to add this little diddy. If you like Robots, Ray Guns and Spaceships, check this out:

Great site for off-the-wall goodies. Felt it was SDog worthy. Lots of eye candy.
