Happy Thursday, Underground Citizens! :-) But before we get to a new idea for the Starian Union Radio Top 20, a moment of silence is in order, for two reasons:
~ for my coworker Sarah, whose daughter's cousin was killed recently.
~ for the victims in New York, Pennsylvania and the Pentagon, of this day seven years ago--this day to not be forgotten.
Alright, that done, new idea for the Starian Union Radio Top 20--how about the Starian Union Radio Random 20? Since I've darn near lost track of it all, and seeing it's been the same old baloney-and-queso, I think WSUR needs something just a tad bit different. Sooo... time to crank up the 'Pod at random and have some fun here. What say y'all? We up for this or what?
The first ever Starian Union Radio Random 20! ~
1] "Every Day Is Halloween" - Ministry
2] "Rise" - PiL
3] "I'm Gonna Be [500 Miles]" - The Proclaimers *Song of the Week*
4] "Boots of Chinese Plastic" - The Pretenders *NEW!!*
5] "Vanishing Point" - New Order
6] "How" - Lisa Loeb
7] "Luno" - Bloc Party
8] "Another Morning Stoner" - Trail of Dead
9] "Say" - John Mayer
10] "The Metro" - Berlin
11] "Mayor of Simpleton" - XTC
12] "People Who Died" - Jim Carroll Band
13] "Morning Glory" - Oasis
14] "Love Is Noise" - The Verve *NEW!!*
15] "Singing In My Sleep" - Semisonic
16] "Bulls On Parade" - Rage Against The Machine
17] "Neon Lights/Neonlicht" - Kraftwerk
18] "American Girl" - Tom Petty
19] "In Your Eyes" - Peter Gabriel
20] "No Love Lost" - Warsaw
Also, before I forget, the song of the week, as I noted, is "I'm Gonna Be [500 Miles]" by The Proclaimers, which is David Tennant's favorite band. [Tennant's the one who's the 10th Doctor on Doctor Who in case anyone here forgot.]
"I'm Gonna Be [500 Miles]" - The Proclaimers
Meanwhile, The Pretenders are RETURNING!! *YESS!!* This song aired yesterday morning as I was getting ready to go to work. I've only heard it, er, twice? I fcuking love it already. Their new album will be out next month.
"Boots of Chinese Plastic" - The Pretenders
AND, Forth by The Verve is my album of the week. This is my favorite track from the album, a rather almost-punky side to 'em. Richard Ashcroft+Co. are just outright brilliant on this track. The entire album in my opinion is ace.
"Noise Epic" - The Verve
So there you have it--I declare Thursday as our Official Music Day here in the Underground! Here's to the great random [ORGANISED!!] noise that is music!!
Until the next round...

Chapter 178 ~ *meh. part two.*
Okay, considering I've been God-awful busy these past handful of days... well, I'm irritable at the moment. With the exception of Roboter and a good small handful of coworkers, I'm starting a minor warpath of a rant.
First of all, the weather's just a mess. Thank you, Hurricane Ike. 'Nuff said on that subject.
Other than, from Yahoo! News - Hurricane Ike over Gulf of Mexico, aims at Texas.
Second, to everyone that made my day at work pisstabulous--and if you're reading this and you KNOW that in some way you got on my last nerve in my 5-to-1 workday!--F off. The last thing I need is for your lack of thinking skills, your lack of manners, and your attitude thinking that the entire world revolves around YOU, to get me at my brink. Bad enough I'm pushed to the brink to get 105 cars during Breakfast Rush and ONE-HUNDRED-AND-GODD*MN-TWENTY CARS through the Lunch Rush. And I'm tired. And I'm in a bitchy mood. And if you were among the few and MANY that got me this way, I really, really dislike you. That's all I'm saying on this matter.
*sigh* And, sadly, third--a moment of silence needed, for two of my friends:
--for my friend Paul in the loss of his father. Paul is the director of the Middle School Youth Ministry at St.B's. He's also a fan of the 4th Doctor, as well as a good friend of mine.
--for Hester, a former coworker of mine who, upon learning she had cancer, moved back home to Ireland a couple of years ago. Last night our maintenance man Ross, who would often call her to check up on her and update the few of us who worked with her, got a call from her son with the news that she had died.
--for a friend of mine on Opacity.us, codename Taubin, who had to put his other beloved dog, Lulu, to sleep on Monday night. Earlier last month he had to put his first dog Bozo to sleep. Both pets had lived long lives. And I once again grieve for Taubin.
The Count of the Mourners' Tears now stands at thirteen, two of them belonging to one of my friends, and one of the deaths a former coworker of mine.
I think the rant of the day I posted on Opacity.us pretty much sums it up for today:
Death, where the hell did you come from, and when the hell are you going to stop throwing your damn two cents' worth into my quarter-life crisis?
The past 5 months, 11 of my friends have lost either a pet or a loved one. One of them had to say goodbye to BOTH of his beloved pets. And this morning I hear of death #13 in what I call my Chain of Mourners' Tears--and this time, you finally decide to end the misery of a fellow coworker who, when she learned she had cancer, moved back to her native Ireland. To die. And this was a couple of years ago when she left. Now, this morning, I hear you struck again.
What more are you going to do, before 4 October, when I see the last 6 months of being 24 filled with... with... YOU!?
I'm afraid of you. And I know I shouldn't hate you, for the faith of a Believer. But I do. Because the pain's too much to bear, the heart grieves because it loves. And all I can do is shed tears in peace, knowing there isn't much else I can do for the ones who grieve.
So thank you, once again, for--even though there is no suffering and I rejoice in that--you otherwise added to an already pissy day I've been having. I hope you're happy now.
*sigh* And I still need a good cry, and a good nap, before I can get to class tonight.
Oh and, I had a quote of the day, from my coworker Michelle but... sadly I've forgotten it, I've been much too glum today.
*meh. life is a mess. and i'm in the middle of it.*

Chapter 177 ~ ...oh for the love of... NOT AGAIN.
Just like last year. Getting over a minor heartache--Roboter and I have talked only 4 times these past two weeks. And work is a mess. AND...
one of my friends is engaged. That I once had a crush on. It's StarKnight Skater, whom I've known for 5 years now.
You know, I really don't seem to do well the last month before my Birthday, it seems. What happened a year ago... *hunts through the archive*
--OH YEAH! Pouncer gave me word of Agathangelos' engagement which, unfortunately, I didn't get to attend the wedding of. Something that, unfortunately, I still get upset at Siren over, but as long as neither of us mention the wedding my temper's at bay.
Tuesday 25 September 2008 ~ Chapter 67 ~ Sort of a Depressing Turn of Events.
Okay, I need to stop moping but, there's been a lot going on these past two weeks that, I'd been so worn out I didn't even remember to do the Top 20 so, before I forget altogether let's take care of that.

Alright, that done, things need to be addressed, *stat*--
~ Rage Against the Machine, you are definitely some serious heroes in the music world. --those wondering why I say this, this recent YouTube from 2 September sums it up quite nobly:
"Bulls on Parade" and "Killing in the Name of" - Rage Against the Machine
For the background on this, read more at the blog on Above the Fold.
~ Siren, thank you again for the half-gallon of mint-chocolate chip ice cream. Sadly I haven't snacked on that since you visited Tuesday afternoon. I haven't finished the half-gallon though... got a helluva long way to go.
~ Kit darlin', whoop your ex in the behind on my behalf, because he kinda screwed up our hang-out time Thursday. Or not. In any case, see you Monday afternoon after I'm done at three. Hopefully. We defo need to hang out.
~ DJ, your comic version of Trans-Europa is nothing short of brilliant!! --for those who aren't familiar too well with her she's a fellow Barney's Angel and, she's 15 and LOVES Kraftwerk. And she draws wonderfully. I have evidence.
This is her cover for her comic version of Trans-Europa *it's a clicky-thumbnail because, really, yes, it's kinda big to fit on this blog, but it's still awesomeness*

~ Louise dear, I never thought you'd get the tail end of the storms we Floridians/American folk get as far as Tropical Storms, Hurricanes, and the like. My thoughts are definitely with you. As well as to all in the path of these darn storms. I hate 'em, don't you know? [Hurricane Andrew started it all for me, Summer of '92, folks.] And I do want to thank you again for putting together this for me, which is my song of the day for today:
"Neon Lights/Neonlicht" - Kraftwerk
~ Saint Barnabas folks, the Choir says, as of tomorrow, weeee're baaaack!!
~ The Verve, THANK YOU BIG TIME FOR REUNITING!! I didn't think you guys sound THIS awesome now, I'm definitely getting your new album ASAP, because this song's been playing on the indie station here. I didn't recognize you guys... OMG. I'm defo happy you've guys got new stuff out; hell, I didn't even realise you guys had your new album "Forth" out on 26 August--gosh I'm behind...
"Love Is Noise" - The Verve *yes, the verve!*
~ And finally, Roboter--yes, I saved you for last, 'cause everything I've had to say to you, I've e-mailed. I'm not gonna repost all that on here. Kinda lacked the patience for it.
...alrighty folks, I think I've just about said everything that should've been said this week. And tonight, for the first time in two weeks, I think I'm going to bed with a helluva clearer conscience. And God himself knows why.
*sigh* Now, anchoring down for the consequences of the letter--I'm hoping against hope that... well... the situation won't be as bad as I've been wigging out on.
*fingers crossed!!*
And until the next round, which won't be until Tuesday most likely...

Chapter 176 ~ *meh.*
...okay, I'm gonna be honest here. Tomorrow I start counting down to my birthday--one month from tomorrow I'll be a quarter-century old. And I'll admit, I am *NOT* excited for this. A lot has happened--especially within the last 5 months. Ten friends have lost loved ones, my heart got broken twice [almost thrice!], work's turned into hell, and not to mention the damn leakage from the ceiling.
To add to work's hell, today fit the definition proper. Who's the next jerk to put the blame on me for the faults of someone else? No, don't answer that question, please...
I haven't really had a chance to get a good cry out as of yet, as I'm still busy, trying to get a handful more done, and a new Wednesday evening class starting tonight. AND I still have to get ready for work tomorrow morning as well.
*sigh* All this talk about getting old has made me very, very depressed.
Hell, I might not even have time for a good cry tonight. I just realized that.
The most irritating of things happen to me at the least necessary of times. Life really fucking sucks at the moment. And that's about as honest an opinion of today as it's going to get.

Chapter 175/3 ~ Okay... so I'm bored... MUSIC TIME!!
I know, the last thing I should be on my day off is bored but, Kit's not awake and Roboter's at work and Siren's in Miami. Sooo... what better thing to do at the moment than post some music. Yes, it's an 80's go-round. Again.
*sigh* All for the sake of anti-boredom, happy Labor Day.
Track uno, 'cause... hello, it's Monday...
"Blue Monday '88" - New Order
One of my all-time favorite Police songs, grew up listening to this...
"Synchronicity II" - The Police
I know, some of you are gonna go, WTF, Sunshine...
*but i love the song so let's ask me if i care...*
"Mickey" - Toni Basil
Okay, the lyrics aren't that easy to make out but, I still love the song anyway, and it's a staple on my near-150-song "Go Sunshine Go!" playlist on my iPod...
"Love Plus One" - Haircut 100
Okay, this track's actually from '79 but, it's my favorite song of all time and, it's also on my "Go Sunshine Go!" playlist...
"Transmission" - Joy Division
And, how the Helen of Troy could you NOT love this song!? Really...
"What I Like About You" - The Romantics
I know, I know--Sunshine, why the hell are you posting THIS song on here? Uhm... maybe because I like the song...
"People Who Died" - The Jim Carroll Band
Just heard this song a couple of days ago actually. I almost forgot about this classic...
"A Girl Like You" - The Smithereens
One of those all-time favorites. Why not...
"Goody Two Shoes" - Adam Ant
Another New Order favorite. Honestly much better than the original Technique album version...
"Round & Round" [7" version] - New Order
How about another Smithereens track? Actually, that's my fave Smithereens track...
"Only A Memory" - The Smithereens
Last night my fave radio show, Sunday Night Vinyl, played this classic gem. And for the fun of it, hey! it's the Clash! It's going on this post...
"Police On My Back" - The Clash
Some recent-school Erasure. What!? I don't mind some Erasure every now and then. Now get over it, m'kay?...
"Chorus" - Erasure
Sing-along time, folks. You know this one...
"Don't You [Forget About Me]" - Simple Minds
From the Livid Festival in Australia, a Joy Division cover...
"Love Will Tear Us Apart" - The Cure
And because I have, like, 4 or 5 different covers [including the one above] of the classic, the original...
"Love Will Tear Us Apart" - Joy Division
This track's for Roboter, as Friday night I was listening to this song and, as he usually does the grocery shopping on Friday nights hearing this song reminded me of him. I told him so last night and, to my surprise he had never heard the song. Roboter, this track's for you...
"Lost In The Supermarket" - The Clash
Okay okay, one more Clash track; last one for this post, I promise [omg. i never thought i'd end up posting lots of clash today. htf did that happen?]...
"The Magnificent Seven" [12" version] - The Clash
Sing-along time, once more--come on, I CAN'T HEAR YOU...
"Video Killed The Radio Star" - Buggles
And finally, because this is in my opinion one of the best "love songs" ever written [and it describes me proper, despite the fact that while it's true, never been near a university, i'm damn intelligent thank.you.very.much!]...
"The Mayor of Simpleton" - XTC
...well damn! I think I outdid myself today for this Underground Soundtrack but hey! it was worth the... erm... hour and 20 minutes to put this together! *lol* Mission accomplish. And I even found my favorite love song of all time, which was, no surprise, "Mayor of Simpleton!"
Yay me, punks. ^_^
Okay, I think I'm done blogging for the day; enjoy the tunage, Citizens...

Chapter 175/2 ~ September's First Song of the Week
Happy Monday, Happy September, to my Underground Citizens.
Song of the Week for this week, the First Week of September:
Oasis - "Falling Down" [Chemical Brothers Remix]
Yeah, in my worry of the storms I damn near forgot to do this. Sorry 'bout that, gang; my bad.
Oh and, the [And by the way...] section of the blog is now a section for the fanlistings I'm a part of. So far there's Doctor Who and the ORIGINAL Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [remember THEM??]. I'll try to find some Sailor Moon fanlistings to join, and just MAYBE Masked Rider although, sadly, I'm probably the only person that remembers the American version of that very show. I kinda miss that show. Dex was kinda cute. *shrug*

Chapter 175 ~ Keep New Orleans In Mind...
...and thank God Hurricane Gustav weakened to a Catagory 2 before making landfall this morning. But still, plenty to worry about. This weekend the city and possibly the entire state of Louisiana went under manadatory evacuation. For those who stayed behind and are riding out the storm now, God be with them.
From Yahoo! News ~ Hurricane Gustav pounds Louisiana coast
In other news, Happy Labor Day to our fellow American Underground Citizens. :-) No, I don't intend to go to a barbecue or, like last Monday, waste my time going to a pool party. [Yes, really, last week's pool party was a complete waste of time.] I'll be spending my day off with Kit and her boyfriend later on.
Oh and... someone special in my little world, in my life, has a birthday very, VERY soon...
More later... probably.

[What goes down in the Underground...]
Mondays start the new workweek. Wednesdays tend to differ, depending on if I need to work or not--usually I'm off, and usually visiting "Uncle" Joseph. Thursdays is the Daughters of the King meeting night. Fridays and Saturdays are normally hectic--never the same drama twice. Sundays = Church day. I update the blog accordingly, with a rant or two, the occasional music post, and sometimes the most random nonsuch.
So stay tuned, because things are fixing to get interesting... and, save your forks--the best is yet to come...
