DIRTYBENNY WRITES

Brian Johnson is 78 years old. Angus Young is 71 years old. Where do they get their energy from? I glean there is something supernatural going on here. 

I remember going to see David Bowie at the Spectrum in Philadelphia on the Serious Moonlight Tour.  I was so impressed that I went back on another night to see another performance.  I was disappointed to see the exact same scripted songs, dialog, lighting, etc. Anything that appeared to be off the cuff was indeed scripted.   The below Roger Daltrey clips illustrate this with identical banter, stories, song set up on Squeeze Box.  So even after the Who does their final show, Daltrey is back rolling out the Who songs a year later...at AGE 82!!!

I don't think the natalist made any inroads.

Cigarette smoking is one of the many things that have changed radically during my lifetime. From the comments More likely cell phones killed Rock than cigarettes.

 

SEVEN years after the release of this film, it has come on my radar repeatedly. This is from someone who refuses to watch any movie for any reason. Many elements of this film embody my model of our predicament.  The first video listed below is perhaps my favorite in highlighting pertinent elements of the film. There is an alien parasite in the film who looks human but studies humans in order to imitate them.  It does this poorly.   I have done many posts about "THEY just can''t fake being human". https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2026/09/lady-gaga-welcomes-first-baby-with.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2026/02/they-just-cant-fake-being-humanthe.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2025/06/the-least-of-what-it-does-is-produce.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2024/04/they-cant-fake-being-humancontinued.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2025/12/the-kirk-entitythe-grieving-continues.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2023/...

 

If you attempt to remove yourself from the aquarium, you can see the water, though you may die. From such an early age, we are immersed in this place.  We don't think twice about our eyes being open and taking in light.  That limited spectrum of light sculpts the virtual reality that we navigate through each day.  Endless cycles of light and dark, sun and moon.   We are given convoluted deceptive explanations for what we observe in the so-called sky.  False stories about where we are, what is our history, what is the purpose of this place ...all are the water in the aquarium.  We don't consciously often think about breathing...a necessity of existing in this place.  We don't think about our body weight and atmospheric pressure, perfectly titrated to allow us to wander around Disneyworld.  This place wants us to explore it and find the castle in the aquarium.  Whether it is Salzburg Austria with its stories of Mozart, the Taj Mahal, the C...
