set sail

It has become clear, after some slow and careful investigation, that there is only one way to have these flickering dreams about bed sheets and sails, and bodies moving within them, and that is to sleep in the bed with you.

Auntie Mame



It doesn't get much better than this.
The color and the drama.
The Mame.

I think I've seen it ten times, always on a rainy day, preferably with a slight cold, always under a blanket.

holy crapola



Joseph Beuys, "Sonne Statt Reagan" (1982)
1982
From UbuWeb:

"Beuys tried his luck as a pop singer as part of his political commitment. His song 'Sonne statt Reagan' attacks Ronald Reagan's arms policy. The song was issued as a record and Beuys appeared before big audiences with it during the peace movement's demonstrations and also with the group Die Desserteure in the ARD television broadcast 'Bananas' on 3.7.1982.

'Regen'', pronounced like 'Reagan', is the German for 'rain.'"
