Comb your smooth and stroke your hair

This video below is from the bizarre movie Wicker Man (1973).  A man investigates the cult murder sacrifice of a girl on a pagan island in Scotland.  (Nick Cage did the laughable remake.) Britt Ekland tries to seduce the investigator through the walls of the inn.  He’s a virgin.  He’s tortured as she calls out to him and bangs on the walls. Youtube doesn’t allow the complete video because of Britt Ekland’s titties and ass, so maybe you’ll rent the movie if you want to see those, and you do.  This movie is brilliant.  It transports you very effectively to another planet where the laws of gravity are different – here’s a place where you’ll be completely ungrounded.  Britt Ekland’s song is bizarre because it comes out of nowhere.  It’s haunting, lovely and disorienting.  I swear I’m going to sing this karaoke one day.  I think of her as a witch in this scene.

The second video from the movie is a very short lullaby. The women in this scene are so strangely disconnected that they stroke and groom their victim, who is about to be killed, as if he would be soothed by it.  With the lullaby playing, the scene reaches your gut.  The ‘comforting’ of the women and the song make you think of being a child in your mother’s loving arms, yet you’re being prepared for a fiery death.  You wonder for a second if perhaps this is a good thing, to die by fire, then you shit your pants.

Haitians, Hexes, and Haagen Daas

Published April 24, 2012 by Sandee

Yesterday I wanted to put hexes on people but then thought better of it.  It was fun to talk about anyway.  I was with my friend in the diner talking about a woman with a big fat head that I do not like.  My friend is of Haitian origin.  Haiti is where voodoo comes from.  You could put a mean hex on somebody with voodoo.  “Hey, we could do some voodoo on people we hate,” I told her.  She said we should take a higher ground.  I agreed.  Later, I ate a pint of Haagen Daas lemon ice cream instead (too lazy to use the umlaut).  I was in a bad mood.

I just figured out I can post videos in here.  As my post the other day says, I’m a Luddite so I am slow moving when it comes to computers and technology and all that gunk.  If I had known this I would’ve posted more videos.  I listened to my favorite music yesterday and I thought I might post it and I did but I deleted it because I thought it might be too severe.  It helped me to get over my bad mood but I’m not normal so I had to consider that.
