  1. I don't know if it's a question or not, but it is a palindrome. Learning is fun! is it? you beat me, although "palindrome" is called "Palindrom" in german, I had to look it up... -_- I just looked it up in english. I guess my cover is blown. May I, dear gentlemen, kindly ask you: might it be that your cover is blown? I'm afraid it is.... Now your out! This was not a question! Or if there is anything you want to say in your defence: please tell us in what way this could have been a question! Am I clear enough? (I need to add a question, don't I?) Sorry.... What is.... I'm afraid it is. How's that Alex? Who is Alex?

  5. I'd like to hear them. meow!
  6. ... I'd keep posting. Should I? YES! You are the King, you can do as you choose. Should I have been aware of this? Remember, it's God who decides who shall be king. You must have learned many a secret when you pulled the fair Excalibur from the stone. "Gott ist tot." - or isn't he? Man, is this fun!/? ubu

  12. What is the maximum of posts submitted in ONE minute? Am I getting close with three right above here? (And please be aware they all include edited quotes, too!) ubu? Is "ubu?" a question?
  13. I love this thread. I'm just sad that some people are annoyed by it. ... Am I? I don't think so. I wouldn't think so, wouldn't I? Do rethorical questions count? ubu

    Funny Rat

    Well, themusicresource.com is predictably unpredictable: TAYLOR,CECIL NEFERTITI,BEAUTIFUL ONE H Compact Discs $25.95 Unavailable But at the same time: BROTZMANN,PETER & GUEST DARE DEVIL Compact Discs $18.50 Invoiced OK, I'll try CD COnnection for Nefertiti... Try ANY POSSIBLE SOURCE for "Nefertiti"!!! And: be aware that large (50$ plus) orders from cdconnection can cause serious custom fees - don't ask me why, but the few times I ordered lots of discs from cdconnection, I had to pay pretty much, more, in fact, than a comparable order from another us-source, I think. ubu
  19. Thanks, Jim! Sounds like a sad one. About Roach: I saw him twice, in 2000 and 2001, and on the first occasion (a rather lame duo evening with Abdullah Ibrahim, both of them also playing solo), he seemed a bit restricted, but in good humour, being a charming entertainer, too. But then when I saw him the second time, with his Bejing Trio, he was in full command, I thought, playing masterful, and as free as he ever did. How about the Bowie/Shaw recording? Am I the only one who knows it, or is it generally considered to be an awfully bad recording, only I did not yet take note of this? ubu
  20. Simon, I found the use of the hidden camera problematic, too. However, the Lanzmann film - I tend to look at it more as an attempt to document human memory (Gedächtnis) and ways of its functioning than a documentation of the factual desctruction per se - is totally impressive, extremely difficult, also hard to bear. And it certainly has its merits, as part of a growing archive. By stating that the film does show more about human memory than about "facts" and "history", I don't want to deny that these facts have taken place, obviously - some things are indeed made very clear by the film. I intend to read at least one of Levi's books soon, maybe also Imre Kertesz. Do you know Friedrich Dürrenmatt's text "Das Hirn" (the brain), or Peter Weiss' "Meine Ortschaft" (my place), or his "Die Vermittlung" (about the Frankfurter Auschwitzprozess)? ubu
  21. I was wondering about that one, too. I don't have it. Is it a good one? And how's the Max/Dizzy? AMG gives it one (1!) star... ubu
  22. Has anyone read it? Can anyone recommend it? I saw Claude Lanzmann's film "Shoah" (in two sessions, the second of which took place last night), and I'm very very impressed (if that word is allowed, adequate it is not, I think, but I'm cannot express these things in english as I could do in german). Also, I read two excerpts of Hilberg's book, and found his general thesis, his way of concluding things etc pretty sound, and foremost, extremely thought-provoking. ubu
