Okay, the amount of responses I got from people actually interested in buying said frisbee sort of justified the suspicion I had that no one on IDM actually READS the posts they're replying to (or understands my somewhat cryptic/self-gratifying banter). I also assumed that some of you had seen the Skam frisbee (it does not glow in the dark nor contain the Wham-O logo anywhere within it's design aesthetic). The lock grooves do not contain music, unless the trackmaster/ortofon damaging din amplified at a certain 2nd anniversary show for a certain Boston-based collective is deemed 'catchy'. BOC? Godzilla? Blue Oyster Cult? Anyone? I'm horribly, horribly old. And lonely. -Våt. BTW- I've got my money on Portman, sorry Kid. Ricci is fine and all & is turning out to be a rather saucy 99% hussy playing hollywood fixture (did anyone else see the short film version of 'Red Riding Hood' on IFC where she strips? I kid you not. Really naughty. Wolf is played by some post-Baryshnikov Russian ballet type, who feeds her the skin of her recently-stiff grandma), but Portman's going places. 'The Professional'? Anyone? Amazing stuff, a bit ethically challenging perhaps but so, so engrossing. Even if she never made another movie (which I kind of hoped after seeing 'Mars') she'd be a whole page in my sticker collection. Ricci's got one scratch n' sniff at best. ____________________ Reckankreuzungsklankewerkzeuge PO BOX 382864. Cambridge, MA 02238 http://www.tiac.net/users/sheket/index.html
