I took Schola Cantorum Basiliensis's "Instrumentalmusik des Mittelalters" off to listen to this--and now it'll be stuck in my head all day. Isn't Robin Hood associated with the Green Man, which leads us once again to the Wicker Man? In this case, Robin is a martyr fit for the next Mel Gibson snuff film. Thanks, Momus!

From Christian scholar questions Gibson's depiction of Jesus:

'As a Christian, Crossan feels he has a duty to show why some people wanted to worship Jesus but others wanted to execute him. Which brings him to the present day: If Jesus were to return tomorrow, "he would be eliminated with extreme prejudice as soon as possible. The only question would be how.

"Assassination would be likely. We would eradicate him because he would threaten the deepest norms of civilization, which I summarize as: `I want to keep mine and take yours.'"

Sounds like Neil Tennant singing over Susato.

Quite audacious!

fun song! no paypal! i can send a monet order? jellybeans?

shades of the ultraconformist! brechtian happy sarcasm i'll up it to six

The new songs are wonderful. I've tried paying, but they tell me that I must first enroll in Paypal's expanded use program. Paypal is sending me a letter with a special four digit number, which I'll then whisper into the computer's ear, and all will be well. Until then, please accept this absentee ballot in favor of your new work.

S.H.

Thanks for the songs!

And by the way, great work.

quite sublime!!

Something i've found recently. It made me curious, and I ask for your thoughts on it. I was reminded from the mention of p2p services on your last journal entry and various comments.

As for the site, it's very casual, sometimes to the point of niavete (sp?), but many pieces appear to be verily from the heart. Opinions? Right, anyways, thank you for letting me borrow a moment.

Mental retardation is the subaverage intellectual functioning that originates during the developmental period. When someone loses his/her intellectual functions which used to be sufficient, he/she is demented, not mentally retarded.

I should probably take this opportunity to admit, shamefacedly, that there is no such thing in medicine as a 'kidney dialysis colostomy bag'.

You can look up the pics me and anne took of you today at my new journal. It's laid out a bit weird, I don't get the hang of html yet.

Where is Dooh Niboor? Why does it spell Robin Hood backwards? And as to the guy talking about the distinction between dementia and "retardation", it's called poetic license, cupcake.

hello, don't know how else to ask you this question.

for the portland, oregon music festival of cutting edge music we're holding two large events, one in the city and one in the woods, and on the web list the conversation came up about what folk music is. i asserted that it would be best to read a 428 page speech by you on the subject of what it is, and i posted to your imomus.com thought of your day...

if you have any interest in adding more to the dialogue, we'd love to hear it, and get your thoughts, or even if you could point us towards which of your essays specifically discuss them (though i believe it must be all of them) ---

all inquiry may be posted to amyvecchione a t yahooo

oh it's a bit lazy on my part to ask this here mr but-do you know how to put images one below the other, as opposed to the weird layout i have on my journal?i ask you here because...uh...it concerns your public image of course.

Just was introduced to your music by insomnia. I must say I love what I've heard so far. Robin Hood, Lady of Shallot were my intro songs... I love the dark sense of humor in them...
