What more could you want out of a Friday night?
Posted on | March 6, 2009 |
So I’m sitting here with my broken collarbone and no plans for a Friday night, browsing this god forsaken internet thingy majig and what do I find? Â NPR.org has got a streaming site playing a stunning two and a half hour Tom Waits concert from 2008. Â Forget youtube, forget porn, forget anything else you were thinking about doing online and get yourself to the best damn thing on the web, click here for Tom’s site that has a direct link to the streaming site on his front page.
It doesn’t get any better. Â The man’s a true American Genius. Â Not many of those around these days. Â Enjoy him while he’s still here. Â And while you are. Â Because that big old clock in the sky is always ticking. Â And there ain’t nothing you can do about it. Tick tock. Â Tick. Â Tock. Â
You can fight it if you want, but it doesn’t care. Â Time is totally and utterly indifferent. Â And there’s nothing more offensive than that. Â Remember, hate isn’t the opposite of love, Indifference is. Â And that’s how Time feels about you. Â No love, no hate, no nothing. Â It just doesn’t care. Â But it’s going to kill you, just the same. Â It’s going to kill all of us. Â
Enjoy your weekend. Â
Tick. Â
Tock.
