Oh the chill

Across the way, cross miles the chill wind sets in , bring a calm dampening the sounds.

How it goes

Another day

Still evening

Quiet night soft insects sing cool breeze sails by

Here

A dew

Drop leaf. Dew
Pooled drip
Tear
Water

May day

Evolution revolution Revelation hesitation resonation cross the nation

Cabin Fever found to be Estrogen Overload

The discovery came after a bout of moodiness, irritability , and feeling a bit crazy. It was cabin fever for sure. Then when buying a smoke alarm @walgreens I mistakenly purchased the First alert Estrogen detector. The thing went off all alarm when I plugged it in at home. I read the instructions and found out in winter time with no windows open, hormones can build to dangerous levels. New feelings of compassion and empathy also can be exhibited. Long thought of as cabin fever, it's wild hormones in the air.

US calls for non fly Zone

After the killing of hundreds of innocent people, a no fly zone will be established. No longer will we bomb and drone in Afganistan and Pakistan.

Feeling of peace elusive

It's hard to find that feeling of peace and well being before the world floods us with what's to be done.

Always carry a bandana

Strive for beautiful words

No lark nor bell can please the ear
As words well smoothed and artful
Tis wispy night of moonlight clouds
Drift softly through the sky

A voice in whisper calls the name
Like flower silk on cheek
The ear awakened from repose
Beckons for some more

And till the clouds and moon go by
And words are put away
The lark and bell hold short their song
Before we hear the name

Achoo

Sneeze and fit
Oh shake my bones
To clear the way for air

It starts the weary
My nasal cleary
Yet leaves me free to breath

Why capital option for log ins?

I will never understand why some sites start a log in with a capital letter? I always have to back delete and reverse capitalization. Why oh why?

Tomas Dolby kicks it

Februrary 8, 2011 David, I'm writing with a couple of pieces of very interesting news. Firstly, I've decided to release the 'Oceanea' EP commercially--i.e. to make it available for sale from March 28th to non-FES members as a CD and via iTunes. This is because the music from the EP has been getting some radio play in the US and UK. Despite only being available to a limited audience, there seems to be a growing interest in my new music in the media and the public at large. And your response to 'Oceanea' has been so overwhelmingly positive. I've rarely seen so many superlative fan reviews of a release. I evidently struck a nerve with this one! It's all good news and I'd be foolish not to take full advantage of it. But now here's something truly exciting and extraordinary. There's been a change of strategy with regard to the proposed 3rd EP from the upcoming album. I have said from the beginning that I wanted to let fans hear my work-in-progress on the new album 'A Map Of The Floating City' by releasing three EPs prior to the album coming out. Well, for 'Urbanoia' I have decided to go one better.... For the last six months, I've been developing an online multiuser event entitled 'The Floating City.' Call it a game, if you will, but it's nothing like a typical computer game--it's more like a FES magical mystery tour. It will take place for twelve weeks leading up to the full release of the album this summer. A segment takes place in the continent of Urbanoia, and that's where the party will be at when I'm ready to debut the songs from that segment. So you won't need to buy a download of the 'Urbanoia' EP; but to hear it, you'll need to play the game and find your way to the party. And that will be an intriguing journey unlike anything you've experienced. Imagine a curious, post-apocalyptic parallel world. In the wake of a terrible planetary catastrophe, a few stunned survivors cling to what's left of the Earth's major landmasses. Technology has imploded, and all that's left are strewn relics of a former age. Trying to escape the boiling temperatures, tribes of humans take to the oceans in the ghostly hulls of abandoned ships. With no fuel available to power them, the vessels are only able to move across the sea by 'rafting up'. Inevitably, gridlock forms, and the Floating City is born. A bizarre trading culture emerges. And the residents begin to piece together the dark history of what led up to the disaster that hit their civilization. As a player in the game, you'll be using familiar media like web pages, social networks, linking up with your friends from Twitter and Facebook, to meet and collaborate with others to solve the enigma of The Floating City. This is not only for gamers--nor is it only for Dolby fans. It's an easy and fun way to explore and enjoy my music and lyrics from the early 1980s all the way up to the present day. I'm extremely excited about this project, and it's very much an extension of the atmosphere and sentiments of the songs on the new album. There are excellent graphics, done by Paul Sizer who art directed the two EPs (that's his charred map fragment at the top of this message.) It also combines into a single framework the lyrics and music from my entire back catalog, going all the way back to 'The Golden Age Of Wireless.' It's a natural extension of the eccentricity of The Flat Earth Society, where over the years the frequent digression into Dolby-related fanfiction has been inspiring and bewildering! There's been a lot of talk about the album's 'hidden theme', going back to the 'Amerikana' EP release last year. I can reveal that both EPs to date, along with the 'Toad Lickers' iPhone app, have contained embedded clues that relate to the whole Floating City enigma. Up to now, no-one seems to have been able to solve the riddles. (I wonder why?) This game will bring all those clues together in a fascinating way. And yes, you will still be able to hear the 'Urbanoia' songs...if you and your friends are able to discover them within the game. And if it's not to your taste, don't worry because all the music will appear on the album when it comes out later in the year. It is not a competitive game, per se, because it's not about individual prowess or high scores. No single player can 'win' outright. However, nine tribes will collaborate and match their skills to try to solve the mystery of the Floating City, using their knowledge and understanding of the music and lyrics. There will be rewards for all participants, including free music, merch prizes, and a sneak peek at the songs you haven't heard yet. And for the most industrious tribe, there will be a fabulous top prize: an invitation to attend an exclusive private concert at which my band and I will perform the album in full. There's a press release coming out shortly that announces the 'Oceanea' EP and mentions the game in passing. But I wanted to make sure FES members heard it from me first! All the best, Thomas PS If you have any comments or feedback, I suggest you post them on my Facebook page here. back to top

End of Winter Day

Still white white white snow snow snow, yet a little bit above freezing and sunlight beck a future day of spring. Anticipation grows as visions of spring chores and fresh air entices the senses.

Google Chrome OS Laptop

Thank you Google!!!!!!

Received my Google Laptop today, fun there was no notice or e-mail, just showed up by UPS . Beautiful machine, love the soft rubber surface. Will have to think about using supplied stickers.

First thing, Charged battery to full, as instructed, which I would normally by-pass, but want this baby to last.

Started up and laptop automatically updated system software. Then it was sign-into my Google account and ready to roll.

I must say one of the ideas I love is that I can not mess up this computer and also that it will never get loaded up or slow from use. These points are very very important to me and big for others.

Everything is slick-just looking over my basic Google mail, reader etc and adding a couple Free Apps from Chrome app store.

Siked by Google

So excited received free Chrome OS laptop today will be checking it out after battery charges.

Coldest is behind

At last the coldest temps are behind us and the slow move to spring begins. Just kinda tired and worn out. Winter wears a soul thin. Just need to wait as the sun moves slowly higher in the sky.
Just hanging listening to old time radio. Wondering what on gods green earth made our dryer knonk out. It's always something.
