Last Commands of Xyralothep via M.E.S.

by The Fall

Locus...
Beware characters connected with car adverts
Real, assumed or imaginary
The vocal testament of M.E.S.
Coming from the little town of Speck Marsden
1. Cash - the eternal fork out
To keep everything normal is well beyond the capacity
All monies will try and escape thee
Beware of thy lazy right hand
This is the focal of M.E.S. locus and Xyralothep
Avoid respectable television and respectable newspapers
They have neither the talent of art
Nor the instinctive snout of the media
2. Deploreth thy real god
He mutters incomprehensibly
Still on job one
With alloys
The calibrator
In a cave not yet invented or constructed
This is your vessel -- M.E.S.
From he to you
This one M.E.S. procured
Mountain's waters blocked by dormant tree
See later on this LP
6. Avoid fat aggressive men and handsome aggressive men
In conflict they disappear overnight with bad backs
7. Cod-science/cod-psychology is to be avoided
But do not make your enig-noise public
As it will bring the wrath of the drude quarters

Found in an Abandoned House

One of my favorite pastimes (as Tristan knows all too well) is collecting interesting junk that people leave on the immense garbage heaps that appear nightly on the sidewalks of NYC. I scored this nautical jem of a painting in the basement of an abandoned house in Jamaica, Queens.

Friday Library Jams


This is what I do every Friday afternoon during my lunch hour. I started up with these guys (there are usually more of us than in the video) a few weeks after I started working at the library in 2007. Since then I've slowly been learning to play upright bass. I do ok at it now, but my form is terrible, I'm sure.

Habitat for Humanity - NYC

Here's an NYT article about the organization for which Annie & I currently work, and where Stefan worked last year: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/17/realestate/17afford.html?scp=29&sq=&st=nyt

1 Corinthians 12:5-11

There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord. There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all. But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all. For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit; to another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the same Spirit; and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; to another different kinds of languages; and to another the interpretation of languages. But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
