So here I am in the Garden State Mall hanging in the Apple Store marveling over this MacBook. I so wish I wasn't so broke. I so miss working on my Imac. I've been subjugagted to working in a PC envorinment for close to a year working through arcane root directories, antiquated software, and system crashes that never end. I've been in left in charge of Julianna in exchange for being left to roam around the store ogling over items that I can't afford.
I'm kinda like the kid whose left in the toy store and refuses to break away from the latest action figure after stariing at it for the past hour.
Gotta tend to the baby, She started crying.
Laterz.

Bowie on SNL
I always wanted to view David Bowie's performance on SNL when he did TVC15. I always loved Station to Station. That album has so many great tracks on it. By luck I happened to stumble across this performance.
Two interesting things to note.
1. Klaus Nomi appears in this performance as one of Bowie's back up singers. Short synopsis: Klaus Nomi was a performance artists in Germany known for his operatic singing style and amazing falsetto. Some people may not take his singing seriously due to the choice of songs he's covered ("Ding, Dong, The Witch is Dead" from "The Wizard of Oz" for starters).
2. The other singer appearing in red was unknown to me till now. Taking a closer look, I was suprised to see that it was Joey Arias, a NYC-based performance artist who is for a better lack of term "been there done that" kinda of a person. I've seen him several times at Wigstock doing Billie Holiday. Pretty amazing stuff.
Enjoy.

Not even the beginning of summer and its freakin hot as heck. I never could understand why people stay in their homes in this heatwave. I guess most people have central air and don't have to worry if their lawns wilt or if their pets pass out while they're chained up barking at each car that passes by their property pleading perhaps in their own canine language to put them out of their misery.
I have a ceiling fan but hell if I know if I know how to use that thing. All it does is make a bunch of noise in this stifling heat.
I would go to the mall to stay cool but hey, guess what? Nothing is opened in Bergen County. So pretty much you're stuck in your house. Damn, I miss checking out the hotties in their short mid riff skirts and with all their piercings walking down the avenue in Queens dressed like their clubbing when they're actually doing their grocery shopping.
Another day in paradise.
