Dead Or Alive : You Spin Me Right Round...

I dunno ziltch about this band (Dead Or Alive) but darn...this song by them is one of my favourite one hit wonders from the late 80s...the video though, left me rolling on the floor nearly dying from laughter...listening to the music and watching the vid at the same time is a truly schizophrenic experience.

Ooe Yokufuten ~ A Star Is Born.

Hahaha...one of the (lucky) participants of the current Ooe Yokufuten's World Tour 09~10, shot this hilarious vid.

Kerberos Panzer Cop Saga - Farewell To Arms.

"Cry 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war"

...my "obsession" with Mamoru Oshii's Kerberos Panzer Cop Saga comes to an end with the completion (well, maybe not, that is if Takara comesup with a proper SSG or Type X armor and there are still Markus Von Stauffenberg (DID Cruise?), a Public Security Division agent (DID T. Becker?), a red riding hood and perhaps even a fast food grifter) of the major armored type personnel in the Kerberos alternative universe. I wanna take pics which were in the style of movie covers like "The Wild Bunch", "PTU", and "Reservoir Dogs" but looks like I gonna have to practise more. And Platz, where the heck is the Panzerjager Wolfpeltz Typ 34?

Adieu, Kerberos, it has been fun.

9

Watched 9 last night, an animated film by Shane Acker, produced by Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov. It tells the tale of 9, and eight other, a foot tall, rag doll like creatures and how they might hold the key to eventually saves humanity from extinction. The dolls are created by a scientist whom has previously created a machine for the purpose of helping humans and gives it "life" by attaching a headgear device of some sort but the one-eyed cyclopean machine lack "humanity and soul" and proceeds to destroy humans instead (the story takes place in an alternative late 30s to early 40s European city, under a fascist rule of a chancellor). After some unspecific time, all humans are erased from existance due to the onslaught of armies of machines created by the cyclop. The rag dolls individually contain a part of the dead scientist "soul", thus one can be brave, another creative, stubborn and so forth. In the end, the remaining dolls manage to defeat the cyclop, which uses a talisman like device to absorb fallen dolls "soul", and there is a strong suggestion that the freed "souls" would "seed" the place for humanity to begin anew once more. I kinda enjoy the movie, particularly the settings, and designs which evokes strong "steampunk" trend. Most noticeable is the eerie, snake like machine which stiches up captured dolls and "swallow" them, only to regurgitate them when presenting them to the cyclop.

Chloe & Dylan ~ Lamb & Chicken Chops.

Esther made a lovely meal for dinner yesterday for all of us, a lamb and chicken chop with nice gravy and veggies...always look forward another tasty treat from her.

Esther & Chloe...Piggyback Riding.

Chloe and Dylan love to ask both of us to give them a piggy ride...a task which seems more difficult as both precious grow up.
