But, as it happens, I am online Doing Something that may or may not be writing a post - and if it is, you've only your pestering self to blame, so there. <BR/><BR/>Glad you liked the snippety-clipets. I fear I may be repeating myself giving you this link but I am really quite fond of the film in question (the cooking is truly exceptional, is it not?) and her singing is more in the range I can reach (she used to be a <EM>real</EM> star, with the song she sings there, as well as the other song in the clip for the gentle <B>Nicola</B> (Nicola, are you reading this? Where's your blog? No pressure), in the early 50s). No high notes for me, please, when we start rehearsing with the Sisters of Dust and The Signs of Future. <BR/><BR/>Okay, back to whatever it is I was doing...be seeing you, number Signs-sis. Mwah and mwah again.<BR/><BR/>(And that word ver does seem quite cheeky-meaningful, as it seems to start with <EM>quasi</EM>-something. No "quasi" here, okay, you insolent weevils?

That was a most beautiful discovery and reminded me of the recordings from a Barbershop group that my dearly beloved Dad used to sing in many years ago. But this was something different again. Being of a nosey disposition, and feeling sure that your other sisters, Nicola and Navas, would not mind, I have also listened and looked in on the other links. Methought to have spotted, as in a dream (as 'twere), a familiar face. I need to take more drugs, is what it is. But anyway, cut to the important stuff: the food - what <I>was</I> he cooking up there with that contraption? Wonderful idea, the tin of peas in the middle there. <BR/><BR/>I go, I go - see how I go! As Ariel would say. I have stayed here rather than get on with, you know, things, but sometimes it is good so. I thank you.<BR/><BR/>But I don't know about <B>qwzyqfuv</B>, and think that after all this time it's really a bit of a liberty.Reading the Signshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06338983880105866139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25897493.post-70906101250394756362008-04-05T13:25:00.000+03:002008-04-05T13:25:00.000+03:00Ha.

We <EM>could</EM> very well be sisters indeed, <B>Navas</B> - that would certainly explain my inexhaustible drive to advise a certain singer in how she should lead her life (she will back up this my claim if you ask her). Congratulations on your impending b.day - mine, however, is not until September. I was referring to my blog girl's birthday. As she is turning only two, I will have to note it somehow (these things matter more to children, yes?) - and it is going to be introspective and demand A Post. Damn damn and thrice damn - there's no escaping it. <BR/><BR/>My spy systems tell me you are in Germany.

Her reply was, "Yes, dust".<BR/><BR/>Anna, you say "another bloody birthday coming up". With all this talk of sisterhood maybe you and I are even twins. I too have one of those days very close indeed. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, inspired by your gentle encouragement, I have put away the dustsheets for the moment and even turned out another little reflection on my life in my bloggy thing.

Yes, my flickr thing is slow...<B>Navas of Dust</B>, hello. Yes, my flickr thing is slowly limping to life again - light has returned which makes photography that little bit easier. Hurrah.<BR/><BR/>Listen, I must tell you what I told Nicola up there - there's no right way of doing this blog thing and I enjoyed what you'd done at yours. (Granted, I haven't been for a while, but you mustn't take that personally, please, because I get funny with space travel from time to time and just don't do it. It may well be that the return of light will make that that little bit easier, too.) Who's to say how often one "should" (or indeed, should <EM>not</EM>) be posting? Nobody. So keep the dust sheets in the closet, Navas, and enjoy the beautiful soft grey matter that builds up on one's words when they've been sitting still for a while. Yes. (And cobwebs are fine things too, specially with the light falling upon them just so.) (Actually - are you reading, <B>Nicola</B>? - come to think of it, "Cobwebs and Dust" would be a fine name for a blog, and it would sound like that Joan Baez song. Just saying.)<BR/><BR/>Okay - a little something with a Finnish twist for you too, Navas. The singer may be tremendously familiar to you but may I point out it's yours truly leaning fatly against the bar table at the very left of the shot. Shhhh...hello Navas, I'm waving to you there. Sort of.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25897493.post-87894807392820195522008-04-05T00:24:00.000+03:002008-04-05T00:24:00.000+03:00Oh Nicola, my brand-spanking new sis, of course yo...Oh <B>Nicola</B>, my brand-spanking new sis, of course you must just get yourself blogging. No reason why not. You see, you don't <EM>have</EM> to do anything according to any set rule whatsoever. It'll be <EM>your house</EM>, you see, your domain, where you can explore whatever it is you want to be looking at (<B>Navas</B>, for instance, wants to be looking at dust, and who can blame her? Fascinating stuff, and 96% made of people, or something) (hello Navas - I'll get to you in a moment). Although I am currently being a bit silent and particularly sorry about being so silent here where you all are (and I really am, okay?), I have learned a lot about the main themes that my blog has come fitted with - I talked about this at length a year ago, when my blog turned one, in a post called "This blog is about trousers" or something - but just to recap, the themes at least of the first year were all sorts of trivialities ("trousers") and shame tolerance, my personal companion for life (shame, that is - the tolerance is what I've worked on, over here, and it's been working). Whether the themes have changed over my second year, I haven't really analysed yet. Damn, another bloody birthday coming up, more introspection and reasons for putting up a new post. Oh dear. <BR/><BR/>God, I'm rambling a bit. What I'm trying to say, Nicola, is that I've gone a long way from squirming over every one of my words and posts cetra, and that I find that to be a positive development. So go girl, build a house of words. You can put <EM>anything</EM> in it. It's good. So, no pressure, but I'll be watching that space. Be seeing you, number Sis... and oh, since I left a wee something for Signs up there, let me see if I can give you something Finnish as well. Hold on.

Here, let me hum you a few bars from the chorus:<BR/><EM>Sä kaunehin oot, kai tiedätkin sen<BR/>jos minne kuljen sua mä aattelen...</EM><BR/>Now unfortunately I've been unable to attach a soundbite of that little ditty (and I've tried, believe me Signs - why else would I have taken so long to reply? I've been up all hours, trying to install plug-ins and other horrific eventualities but it's all to no avail) but I've left you a little something by Finland's answer to the nice Jewish girls you mention. They do, admittedly, sing in German in the clip, but I know this will pose you no problems, and should you most terribly need to hear some Finnish, that can be arranged at future comments/replies.<BR/><BR/>Phew. What else? I think we already had a band going once, did we not? Buggered if I can remember what it was called right now - it had a cleverly-knitted Steinerian name. Damn.

Because let me tell you, Sis, things could do with being sorted around here. Excellent instruction re Nicola's blog btw, we must be visible and <I>shine</I>, like the Andrews sisters, who were really <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Vvo3MaFcxw" REL="nofollow">nice Jewish girls</A> though many people don't know that. I assume you both can sing - yes, of course you can, good, we can begin planning our tour: Reading the Sisters, Sisters of my Past, whatever, we'll make it up as we go along, always the best way.<BR/><BR/>Montag - hello! The lovely Anna says you will like me and I blush and remonstrate as is proper, but I am, it has to be said, quite likeable. Only sometimes I miss the mark a little and I don't like to disappoint. I am a sign-reader, Mr. Montag, you see, one of the very last of my kind, and ours is a strange and lonely destiny. Sometimes we (I don't mean Anna or Nicola, the latter not even having her own blog yet) write damnably mediocre blog posts. But don't let that put you off. And I am not as gifted a hostess as Anna is. But there are moments, flashes of brilliance. I have not spotted them myself, but I am reliably informed that they are there. <BR/><BR/>I think, Anna, it does perhaps behove you to set a good example and put up another post soon - set a good example to the sisterhood. On the other hand, ain't no-one gonna tell a sister what she should do. What? Not even another sis. So ignore me, ok?

I have left you waiting fo...<B>Montag, Montag, Montag</B>. I have left you waiting for a response for longer than is polite, really, but you've only yourself to blame - you came bearing many things and I have spent long whiles researching them (and being led completely astray at interesting tangents which crop up so easily on our friend the internet). But yes, let's try to answer to some of your bountiful comment gifts - and the pressing question of sisters. <BR/><BR/>Ah, sisters. Anna and her sisters, the three sisters, the tree sisters. I am, to my eternal regret (I turned round numbers last year and, by my faulty calculus levels, a prime number this year, and am slowly getting used to the fact I haven't and shall never have a big brother) (or several), and shame, too (which was given to me by those who taught me, when I was a girl, which isn't fair really, because it's hardly something I could effect change upon) I am, Montag, a singleton, a one-off, they broke the mold (mould? Dammit, this is my stumbling block, spelling-wise. I'd better hasten to dictionary.com and sort it out once and for all) (alright - sorted. Being as I am, sort of adoptedly <EM>Chiefly British</EM>, I'd better use the form) <B>mould</B> when they made me. However. In my most recent past, I have increasingly become reclusive in the everyday physical world (I like my job and, to some extent, my children too, and see plenty of people through these two instances and find the company of people rather exhausting in my spare time) but concurrently to my hermitting on the outside I have found very very satisfying relationships here on the <EM>inside</EM> (I avoid using the "Real World"/Internet dichotomy. What's not <EM>real</EM> about (my words, ergo, me) being in this box?). Consequently I was going to proudly announce a sisterhood based on (amongst many other things) Princeling Hamlet and the Company of Wolves, namely between myself and the fair <B>Reading the Signs</B>, whom you, Montag, ought to visit forthwith if you haven't already done so - I think you'll find you like her a lot. I certainly do (I am sorry but I cannot risk linking to her here, because I am plagued by a horrible bug that causes my embedded links in comment boxes to make the whole comment become the link and oh dear, it's too horrid and embarrassing. But you'll find her easily enough, here on this thread amongst many, many, many other threads). But lo, look- it's all been made so much more to the literary degree by the appearance of the fair <B>Nicola</B> suggesting a sisterdom with me. That is a fabulously lovely thing (hello Nicola - I'll get back to you soon if not directly after writing to Montag, I've a lovely korma to attend to and I'm being verbose to the extreme here, which may mean you'll have to excuse me for an hour or two) and so I can say yes, Montag, there are Anna and her sisters, although we aren't all here in the land of the ice and snow and long winters and <EM>takatalvi</EM> (and I've been to yours and seen your poem and I am going to have to write a post to link to it, Montag, and you'll just have to excuse me).<BR/><BR/>Okay. So that's the sisters issue done, I think. As for photoshop tennis, I was utterly unaware of it till now but it looks like a fun thing if you know how to play. I don't have photoshop and the free alternative, gimp, is a fine thing if you're born in the nineties but I cannot make the damn programme even open a photo, let alone start tampering with it. My older son makes lovely pictures out of nothing with it, though. But yes. A photoshop tennis approach to languages (and many other things, including sisters cetra) sounds like a fine thing and one that I will find easy enough to adopt.<BR/><BR/>And then there's the Villon and the neige of yesteryear. What a totally lovely thing that was, and I am happy to have come across it (and how comes I've never heard of it before? How poor is my level of literary knowledge, for goodness' sakes?). I have fairly fallen in love with the refrain. And as for your revised Big Bang theory - I was married to an astrophysicist, once, but your version holds poetic appeal aplenty, even for one floundering in a universe without God. <BR/><BR/>I'd better finish off and post this before it gets to be longer than anything that can be read or something. Totally lovely, as always, Montag.

I h...Great to hear from you.<BR/>Sorry about the French. I have a "Photoshop Tennis" approach to language. ( see "flickr.com" and search "photoshop tennis" if the concept is a bit vague.)<BR/><BR/>"antan" is old French for "long time ago": where are the snows of old? ( or "of yesteryear" as it is famously translated.)<BR/>It was a poem by some tyrannically bright and brainy French guy.<BR/><BR/>As for one's heart or soul being a big snowflake, I guess I like standing in an open area in the woods during a snowstorm and looking at the infinity of snow.<BR/>I gives me sort of a feeling like: this is how God created the universe; He overwhelmed the Void with an infinite snowstorm of the divine.....<BR/>either that or He threw a snowball at it, hence the "big bang".<BR/><BR/>It continues snowing here also. I do not mind a bit. I love winter and the treasures of winter which cast no shadow under the grey, snowy sky.<BR/>Too many shadows in summer.There are enough people and things hanging around, aimlessly gawking, without an unnecessary multiplication of shadows, too!<BR/><BR/>This week's poem is for you....and your sisters. It's Friday already and I have only a hint of something about trees dee-dum-dee-dum-tra-la. Hope it ends up better than that.<BR/>I should have it up by Sunday, March 30.<BR/><BR/>As I remarked elsewhere, I do not know whether you have sisters or not, but in the "photoshop tennis" of my mind, they have already been edited in.Montaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00017648070522030951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25897493.post-22039981072353353262008-03-25T20:29:00.000+02:002008-03-25T20:29:00.000+02:00Montag, mon cher, quelle surprise delicieuse. Alas...Montag, mon cher, quelle surprise delicieuse. Alas, you may note a certain deficiency in my French - it would be a sign of your keen eye for languages, to be sure, because my French is totally non-existent, I hate to admit. I went to Babelfish, of all places, to find out what it was you had wanted to tell me, and this is what I was told: <BR/><EM>"or are snows of antan? (gold... my heart is a large flake)"</EM><BR/>from which I instantly deduced that you (as I had rather suspected) are a <EM>poet</EM>, Montag, a real poet. <EM>My heart is a large flake.</EM> You have no idea how well that seems to describe me, my heart, and my life. I am totally blown away.<BR/><BR/>But yes - the various words for snow go to show the relevance the stuff has had for my ancestry. If it is central for one's everyday life - survival, even - to know and be able to describe exactly what the snow conditions are like, there shall be words for them. Although why the buildup of snow on the branches of trees would be crucial to anyone's survival is a bit beyond me, so I may have been guilty of a tiny bit of exaggeration there, Montag. This is something that happens to me from time to time and I apologise. We are currently experiencing a bit of a <EM>takatalvi</EM>, literally "rear winter" - meaning it has gone snowier (and colder) now than at any point during winter proper (and it is officially spring here too), but I'm not complaining. It's better winter comes now than not at all (or in June). I felt all forlorn thinking that all we had left of our diamonds-and-ice winters was the defunct lingo describing them.<BR/><BR/>Absolutely wonderful to see you again, Montag. Hope all is well and that your Easter was restful, peaceful, good, and maybe a mite playful too.Anna MRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13801478271766064478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25897493.post-50720279380555051692008-03-25T19:51:00.000+02:002008-03-25T19:51:00.000+02:00Cara Lettura dei segni, mia bella, ciao.

I am honoured and pleased and v.happy indeed. How are you, where are you? Back Down Under in the land of funny upside-down folk who wear corks in their hats and say "mate" a lot? Or still trundling away in India? (I'm afraid Winnebago doesn't say a great deal. It doesn't <EM>sound</EM> Indian, true, but then it could be the name of your camper van or something. I am a dork. I will truly try and come and see you in the House of Pants because surely all will be revealed there (unfortunate pun should be ignored totally). I have been sort of in hibernation here, Pants, only visiting exactly three blogs for the longest time - possibly all of 2008 - but I have a feeling that the season is turning. Totally lovely, anyway, to see you. Hope you are fine and happy, and please give my best regards to your esteemed companion, the genetically modified owl cat.)Anna MRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13801478271766064478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25897493.post-35173807416487062892008-03-20T19:41:00.000+02:002008-03-20T19:41:00.000+02:00Ha.
