“Christian evangelists who travel to Iraq to save the savages are merely taking a cue from their masters in Washington.”
– Malcom Lagauche

Saw this on Guav’s Live Journal today…

The Guardian is reporting on the American Family Association and their recent lift of their Disney Ban. The Mississippi-based American Family Association (AFA) instigated the boycott in 1996 after accusing Disney of “promoting homosexuality” and associating itself with “trash films”. The organization demanded that Disney form an advisory panel of evangelical Christians and ban “Gay Day” revellers from visiting its theme parks in California and Florida. It also objected to the company’s association with Miramax, the studio which had a hand in films such as Pulp Fiction and Fahrenheit 9/11.
Conservative Christians are also heartened by Disney’s decision to adapt The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the first book in CS Lewis’s classic series of Narnia stories.

Although set in a magical land populated by talking beasts and witches, Lewis’s tales are traditionally read as thinly-veiled Christian allegories.

Side Note: Looking around the AFA’s website, I came accross this pressing concern “According to Advertising Age magazine, the four major networks are closer to airing ads for condoms than ever before. In February, the networks were “leaning” toward prime-time commercials for condoms.” and their response- “Aren’t you tired of the networks abusing the use of public airwaves to air offensive and inappropriate material? It is inconceivable to think that the networks can get away with broadcasting these kinds of ads when they know our children will be watching.”
but these same people let there children read “… because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open.”- Hosea 13:16

So for some reason I fucking love abstract electronic music like drone. There is nothing like working on a layout for a couple of hours while getting lost in some bizarre soundscape. So when I found FUKKGOD I was stoked. It’s a free online label… I knew when I saw something with the description “Dark, ice cold isolationist drones” is was going to love it…
JT check this shit out!

We just got this in…

Just finished THE TROUBLE layout. I used PANTONE 1787 C for the coverage of the CD and the “Nobody Laughs Anymore” title script thing is Metallic Pantone 877 C. The Atlanta peeps on here will recognize this cover as the same cover as the Crisis Under Control 7″, I wouldn’t of used this for that reason but it was the bands choice not mine…

Amidst some serious foot odor and armed with popcorn and a slurpee…
I saw it.

I need the weekend to think about it before I really comment.

I just scored the unedited version of Kill Bill: Vol. 1. Of note, the ‘House of Blue Leaves’ fight scene between The Bride and the Crazy 88 is shown in color and with more gore shots. The anime sequence is also slightly more gory and we get to see Uma lop of Sofie’s remaining arm at the end.
