Jodorowsky’s Dune. How could the story of a film that never got made be so inspiring? I liked everything about this, and I really dig Jodorowsky’s idea of artists as warriors.

Here are the Big Boys, from Austin, Texas. I got to see them once, about a year before this, and .. look at the teenage boys running around on the stage here – my experience, exactly ( bless you, grown men, for tolerating us ). I keep in touch with a few of my comrades from that time, and we tend to agree : the Big Boys were the coolest, funnest band of the era.
We’re not in it to lose : fuck you!

“In transit. If two sweeter words exist in the English language, I have yet to hear them. Suspended between coming and going, neither here nor there. my mind slows, and, amid the duty-free shops and PA announcements, I achieve something approaching calm. I’ve often fantasized about living in Airport World. Not one airport, mind you, like the Tom Hanks character in that movie, but a series of airports. I would just keep flying around the world, in a state of suspended aviation. Always coming, never arriving.” – Eric Weiner, The Geography Of Bliss
I hate flying, and I hate airplanes ( I mean, who doesn’t ), but I love airports.

* “They said, ‘The world is our home.’ Believe me, if they had said that to me in a bar in Brooklyn three months ago, that statement would have been met with a hearty eye-roll. But while I was traveling, I said, without any cynicism: ‘That is fucking amazing.'” How to ditch your job and flee the country
* Saxophones don’t belong in rock n’ roll.
* “Although village discos weren’t part of any pagan ritual, they made me think of ancient times when villagers celebrated their pagan holidays in the forest.”
* Blowjobs? Illegal. Necrophilia? Legal! Louisiana.
* A very in-depth look at 1979’s Sony TPS-L2, the first Walkman ever made. Also, if you have young children, you will probably find this amusing/familiar.
* Manufacturing a Michael Jackson CD.
* How Matisse and Picasso turned old age into art.
* When “peak beard” frequency is reached, the pendulum swings back toward lesser-bristled chins – a trend we may be witnessing now, scientists say.
* Sailing around the world and getting by without cash.
* On the trail of the phantom women who changed American music and then vanished without a trace (this piece is quite long, and pretty great, so give yourself time to read it)
* A list of people who disappeared mysteriously.
