Teaching People to Fly.

By fragmad • Apr 24th, 2009 • Category: Fiction

Hot: On top of a twelve mile tower of rock which grew from the plane of heaven to far above the clouds sat a man in a white plastic garden chair. He was an old man, and his hair had gone gray years ago. He was sitting watching the sun rise when the first visitor [...]



Everything Sucks? Climb.

By fragmad • Feb 28th, 2009 • Category: Fnord

Hot: There are many reasons why rock climbing is a great activity. It’s a good stress relief activity and the virtues of climbing speak for themselves. There is of course the chemical high that comes from temporally beating nature and avoiding death or horrible injury for just a moment. There are the great views seen [...]



That Divine Spark

By fragmad • Jan 25th, 2009 • Category: Fiction

Hot: Earlier today I spent some time shifting through old notebooks of mine. I was looking at notebooks from just after high-school. A period which I have through accident lost a large part of my memory of. While I have reclaimed many of the memories which others can provide accounts for there are still gaps [...]



Midsummer Night

By fragmad • Jan 23rd, 2009 • Category: Fiction

Hot: I was dozing on the side of the hill watching the sunset with a bottle of Jameson whiskey when I first saw her. She was a new arrival to the land of the dead and was heading into the woods. That was where everyone went once the night had started. I drained my glass [...]



Two Dreams – Don’t Leave the Radio On.

By fragmad • Jan 21st, 2009 • Category: Dream Log

Hot: I feel like describing the two dreams I had this morning. Stoic Will: Seriously writing a blog post about your dreams. How lame. Other Will: Shut mate. There’s a serious health and safety warning here. Stoic Will: Well I suppose he could have been in the dreamlands. Other Will: Stop with the Lovecraft shite. [...]



We Want Obama (for our own nations).

By fragmad • Jan 20th, 2009 • Category: Politics

Hot: That was a good speech wasn’t it? I was sitting in The Gateway pub just next door to my old university with a bunch of friends still there. I had a good pint in my hand and the past eight years seemed to have a band-aid applied by lady liberty. I was impressed by [...]



A Very Common Musical Distraction

By fragmad • Nov 17th, 2008 • Category: Audio

Hot: I’ll have you know that this was that the reason I first went on YouTube was to find the music video for this song. Sad isn’t it? Most people went there to find video of cats being insufferably cute. Well I’m a heartless cock who wants to watch Britpop era music videos before I’m [...]



A Subterranean Homesick Musical Distraction

By fragmad • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Audio

Hot: More 1960s love! It’s not a coincience that the baby boomers invented all the good music. They had the right politcal situation, the right drugs, none of the AIDS and the right economic situation. The world isn’t in the right place to throw off the shackles of the baby boomers. I doubt we’ll be [...]



A Drug Haze Filled Musical Distraction

By fragmad • Nov 15th, 2008 • Category: Audio

Hot: I have nothing to say. These videos should explain everything perfectly well. Incidently I’ve just past the half way mark of my novel. That’s the only explanation you’re going to get.



Alert! Yet Another Musical Distraction.

By fragmad • Nov 14th, 2008 • Category: Audio

Hot: I can’t remember when I first heard this song. I’m not from a family that listened to Neil Young when I was a kid. So if I was to put an age on it’d be around 17 or 18. When I was out there discovering music to listen to of my own. This would [...]
