No, I didn't get the reference but I think it's precious in it's own way. After all, bears are unnaturally cute.

And as the sad play continues, some former students, now transformed into bananas to banana-pose for chiqhita and into books posing for a new bookstore and into ugly Michelin-figures, are entering the room… and suddenly the bear takes out his balalaika… and starts a) to play pathetic folksongs or b) to beat up the bananas or c) to beat up the Michelinman or d) to break open the balalaika, takes out the key and leaves through the back door…

Mmm. Every time it grows back from a shave, there has to be speculation about exactly what percentage will grow back.

My advice...free yourself from the tyranny of the hairline. I've never regretted staying shaved for a minute.

I'm sorry. That was a horrid comment. It just seems that your fashion sense is becoming less outré; I suppose I'm just feeling nostalgia for your orange, oversized, New York era watch. But that is not an excuse.

Quite all right, my dear fellow.

I don't recall ever having had an orange watch... a white Swatch, perhaps... And I do still do 'outre', although it's true, the New York years were rather more bold. Manhattan does that to you.

I like the blazer and the turtleneck, however. I want a huge black turtleneck and I haven't found one yet. I'm on the look. The fuzzy-looking beige pants are nice, too.

bonjour nick, tes images de marc wallinger sont super.
Je suis finalement allée à la neue nationalgalerie, mais vers minuit.
J'ai trouvé ça très beau, très sculptural, très stupide, très pathétique aussi
avec les spectateurs qui se mettent à addopter des comportements de visiteurs de zoo.
En tout cas, c'était un curieux moment pour moi, pour
commencer l'année parceque c'est mon anniversaire aujourd'hui.

I've finally received my copy of Summerisle two weeks ago along with the Gongs' CD (neighbors keep shooting the mailmen and those blasted faun couriers are notoriously unreliable). I must agree with your assessment that Summerisle may very well be your--and Anne's--finest hour. I hope you may work together again in the future, as it seems to bear fine fruit.

Apparently, in Sweden a moose-hunter got killed by a brown bear the other day.

I love Mark Wallinger. The video installations in his show at the Whitechapel a couple of years ago were really mesmerising/moving.

Nick, can you give me a link to a Paypal donation page that isn't in German (and is preferably in English)? Or is that a problem on my end?

Also, if you didn't see it, I thought the Onion did a superior job of eulogizing Derrida with one of their headline-only gags:

Jacques Derrida "Dies"

hey::
it has nthg to do with the price of whatever but... have you already seen michel gondry's (& charlie kauffmann's) movie "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind"?
i was slightly reluctant to go to see it because i didn't like so much his 1st movie but this one is really something... despite of some weakier moments in the storyboard (the Kirsten Dunst plot) it's - at least - worth viewing & it reminded me a bit of an alain resnais nostalgic ~sci-fi movie from the 60s, "je t'aime, je t'aime".
Jim Carrey is amazing but it's not the only great thing about the movie.
Go & check it, Nick, it may enlight yr day!
Hopefully...
