Chapter 139 ~ ANOTHER New Kraftwerk Fan-Fic!!

And this time, it's got nothing to do with the Clandestine Rebellion. The idea for it came to me yesterday at work, and I jotted down the main highlights of it.

The result: [Computer<3]

So it's loosely based off the situation I'm going through right now, except... what if Ralf of Kraftwerk read this blog? The idea for that and what happened resulted in the making of this new fan-fic. I can't wait to write both Metropolis AND [Computer<3]...

You know, these two might make these next long four weeks some of the best ever...

Chapter 133: OMFG! HE'S SO HANDSOME!!! *squee!!*

...I'm sorry but, when it all comes down to it, Ralf Hütter from Kraftwerk can put my common sense six feet under. To me he's so the ish.

Photographic evidence: from Coachella Festival '08, California, a month and a half ago...



*nods* Yup, lookin' good for only 61 years old [or is that 62? not sure].

You know, it's been a while since I did a "I <3 Ralf Hütter from Kraftwerk and I cannot lie!!"-type post. I think I better start rummaging through pictures...

Hmm... *cue innocent halo*

P.S. Special thanks to my friend Louise [codename Transistor] for the pic!

~ me.

Chapter 93: For Pouncer--More Kraftwerk!!

For one, the William Orbit 12" remix of "Radioactivity." Great tunage.



You know, I'm thinking I'm gonna use this in my "Trans-Europa" story. It's got what it takes to fit in the next on-board battle versus the enemy. You know, I think I'll use it. Yeah, it'll work alright. :-P

Which, speaking of, I'm working on the first of THREE new Chapters for the story, and they all focus mainly on Karl and Anneke because, if y'all have been reading the story up to now, I've been sort of neglecting them. They desperately need their own Chapter time. And tonight I'm in the mood to get the stories out of me like nobody's business.

For two, thanks to my friend Louise in England for this. Yes, you might want to listen to the entire song just to see why this deserves a spot in the "OMFG!! He did NOT just sing that!?" catagory:



I'm giggling hysterically trying not to make so much noise in the Underground listening to this song. But you know, considering this was in '91, and a soundcheck...

...but still, for Ralf to sing THAT!?

*ROFLMFAO!!*



...yes, I know. I'm a dork. Even when Ralf sings the most surprising things.

Until the next round--and hoping to have recovered from laughing by then...!

Chapter 89: Я ТВОЙ СЛУГА, Я ТВОЙ РАБОТНИК. [Yep, guess what tomorrow is...]

For one, y'all probably wondering, What the hell does all that Russian talk mean, Sun!?

Well...

Я ТВОЙ СЛУГА, Я ТВОЙ РАБОТНИК

means, "I'm your slave, I'm your worker" in Russian. If you're familiar with the Kraftwerk song "Die Roboter," there's a part of the song where the lyrics sung are

Ja tvoi sluga, Ja tvoi Rabotnik

...basically, that's the Russian part of the song.

It all ties in with what tomorrow is. It's Halloween. And I'm going to be the Mensch-Maschine for the occassion. It's gonna be one fun festivity to take lots of pictures for. Trust me.

In other interesting oogle-happy whim, Antenna sent me word on the Morning Roll Call--"all present & accounted for frau kommandant" as he puts it. Evidence:


You know, I'm having a very funny feeling about all this, between Antenna and I and, mind you, he's all the way in New freggin' York!!



...perhaps it is a small good thing to get my hopes up...

In case I'm too busy to post tomorrow, Happy Halloween to all from the Underground!!

Chapter 86: Kraftwerk Korner--What I <3 about Roboter!!

...alright, I've been lazy.

I've spent hardly any time this week oogling anything other than a picture of Ralf and a picture of Antenna. News flash: I'm an absolute dork. Big time. And I have no shame in that. But still. I should be oogling other pictures of the Roboter that is Ralf instead of Antenna [even though he is just adorable!!].

Sooo... with that in mind...


Hellooooooooooooo handsome!!


Did I tell you this picture just puts me at a standstill? [Oh, to be the Minimoog Synthesizer at the receiving end of that stare...]


In Vienna we sit at a late night cafe.
Straight connection--T.E.E.

Absofreckin'lutely.


I. Love. This. Damn. Picture.

Really, makes me wanna take Ralf out and just hug him to bits. He's so damn cute.


And I. Love. This. Damn. Animation.

Probably the only cool thing since 'Boing Boom Tschak' to jump out from the "Electric Cafe" album. What?


You know, I was thinking something just now, but it's probably best that I don't say it!!

:-X [my lips are sealed--big time!!]


Ooooh, it's tea time... and they saved a seat for me!? Aww...

*especially with ralf's eyes just pleading 'oh please, do join us for tea...' enough to unnerve me stupendously!!*


You know, if this picture were to ever end up in color, or I were to really be at the receiving end of Ralf's half-smile-charming stare, I'd be unable to think clearly for possibly the next 10-15 minutes or so. I kid you not.

I swear, the man is just be-yooooooo-ti-ful.

...yeah, yeah, I know. I'm a dork. But anyway.


...no seriously, he could've fooled me big time with that. I think it's the Roboter but... you never know...


Especially the one all the way to the left... that first one... yeah, him...

...yeah, Ralf. Him. *giggle*

And of course, what Kraftwerk Korner "I <3 Ralf" post would be complete without THIS wonderful gem...

Seriously, I could lose a staring contest to this guy. I'd probably look away within, oh, maybe 5 seconds? Or blink. In any case, he'd beat me right there. And I'm tellin' y'all why--it's all about the freckin' eyes!!

My, what beautiful eyes he has...

the better to make the bright sky envy with!!

You know, I think I've found a StarKnight codename for Ralf. And he shall happily be called Roboter because, well, yeah. He's just a wonderful semi-human being and whatnot.

...yes, I must've heard their music waaaaaay too many times, but I can't help it!!

I mean... let's be real... [Werkaholics, sing along!]

We ♥ Kraftwerk and we cannot lie--
them other robots can't deny,
that when Ralf and his gang storm up onstage
playing music on machines, we get SPRUNG!!

[...yes, my play on 'Baby Got Back'!!]

You know, if I dare ever was at the receiving end of a stare from Roboter I don't think I'd get out of it that easily. Or maybe I'd just drown in it. I don't know. I mean... well, damn. I just love his eyes. They're just so... so...

they're just so schön. Beautiful. Really, they are.

I wonder just how many brave souls have fallen under the wonder of the bright blue eyes... I just wonder...

P.S. - 7:06 P.M. - I can't believe it took me three freckin' hours just to do that post!? Good God I'm a dork!!

Chapter 84b: More mischief for the masses!!

For starters, it's 6:34 P.M., "Hey Sandy" is on and I'm feeling a little goofy...


...yep, the adorable moi. Hee.

About 20 minutes ago I took this pic of m'self. Figured everyone could use a much better updated me. Yeah, I cut it that short. Or at least it was much shorter earlier this month when I cut it again. On 1 October. Before my birthday.

Man, me as Ralf for Halloween... this is sooo gonna rawk. Really.

And anyway, what self-respecting Roboter wouldn't want to brag about her cute self to the world a little bit?

But... anywho. Back to music and whatnot.

7:12 P.M. - Back here with the latest, as the single edit of "Trans-Europa Express '91" is on.

...well... not a lot going on, actually...

Yeah, I know, I'm a dork.

Anyway, I'm back to being elusive. Yes, I know, it's a bit lame but, anything is better than talking to someone who just wants to talk about nothing and basically be pointless.

On those kinds of people... FUNK DAT!!

Anywho, back to task on hand. Somewhat.

This week my two best friends from the Choir are hemming my gray pair of pants for Halloween, since they're gosh-awful long. And since good ol' Wal*Mart didn't have anything smaller than a freckin' Size 4, of course the pants fit well on the butt. Unfortunately, they also need a desperate hem-job. So, dear Steffi's gonna double-hem the pants for me, thank God! Plus, she knows what she's doing, unlike myself, who prefers hemming by stapling.

Yeah, it's a bit lame-o on my part, but I can't hem to save my life.

A bit pathetic, but that's the truth, and that's life for y'all.

I think that, this week I'll stop in at Hot Topic and see if they have plain black ties. That way, I've got a plain black tie and I could probably put ten red paint dots on it [to represent the 10 light diodes on the Mensch-Maschinen ties] after it's tied so I don't have to untie and retie for Halloween and whatnot. At the moment all I've got is a boys' clip-on tie, as I can't really tie a tie real well, and plus a boys' tie isn't too big but, hell-ooo!!

7:33 P.M. - "Funk Dat" is on, and Antenna and I are in a chat-happy state of mind!! Yay!!

*LMFAO* Sorry but, "Funk Dat" is just one of the most amusing songs I've ever heard. Makes me laugh every single time.

7:50 P.M. - At the moment Antenna and I are going through the usual file exchange, the side-switching of music for our Kraft-happy enjoyment. Annnnddd, he sent me the pic of him as a Mensch-Maschine too!! *giggle-happy*

7:57 P.M. - "Pretty in Pink" is on, and I'm still giggle-happy over Antenna as a Mensch-Maschine. No, really. He's quite adorable!! What!?

8:25 P.M. - Listening to the soundcheck for "Flying Through the Clouds" by, surprisingly, Kraftwerk. Antenna caught a good soundcheck right there. I absolutely LOVE this song already. Just something so... I don't know... block-rocking about the song. Simple, nothing elaborate, just one helluva cool track. It's amazing to think that the Roboter could think up something so freckin' awesome...

No, really, you have NO idea how cool it really, really is. It's just... damn. You just don't know. You'd have to hear it yourself, basically. I'll get around to posting it one of these days, I promise. It'll have to be featured in the next Kraftwerk Korner, that's for sure.

...yes, I finished hearing that song [8:33 P.M. now, "Hey Sandy" about to end], and it DEFINITELY deserves to be on the next Kraftwerk Korner. End of.

Trust me, your ears will be thrilled to hear it.

8:46 P.M. - I just went through listening to about 3 different mixes of my all-time favorite Killing Joke track: "Adorations." Ace stuff right there.

So anywho, life is kinda quiet here in the Underground. Not a lot going on, not a lot of people either. It must be a Thursday night.

*glancing around the Underground...*

...yep, it must be a Thursday night.

9:00 P.M. - You know, I've kinda come to admire Antenna. He and I might not talk much, but we love Kraftwerk. Oh, to have met him in the days he played with his Minimoog that he had. Oh, to have heard him play "Autobahn" on his Minimoog and Farfisa Organ.

Man, that would've been AWESOMENESS!!

But, seriously... I mean, we're just friends. And we both love Kraftwerk. What are the odds that there could actually be something developing from there?

Worst bit is, he's all the way in New York.

Ah well, at least he's doing alright, I suppose. And, he's a good person to talk to. And, I swear, his Ralf and Florian impersonations are just hysterical.

9:15 P.M. - ...meh, gettin' exhausted but, it's worth the lack of sleep, really. I mean, anything to strike up some charming conversation with him.

...yeah, you can tell there isn't much going on.

9:46 P.M. - ...yeah, still here. Kinda bored.

10:26 P.M. - Yep, still here, still awake, still chattin' up a storm with Antenna.

Hee.

11:55 P.M. - ...uh... yeah... still up...



...yep, I made an animated me. Yay. I'm hawt.

*giggle* You know, I gotta be at work in 5 hours!?
