Gentlemen, and ladies, take a knee to this fine American documentary...
Am I an easily amused retard? Yes, of course.
Despite all that, is this film still unbelievably, tear-bringingly funny? HALE YES WOOHOOOOOO!

Happy belated Birthday Freezie Mc Frozen
(august 15th)
All of your austin contingent had an elaborate scheme brewing, the hilarity of which would have sent shockwaves through the frozen barren zone wherein you shiveristically live.
But then we all got lazy, and “decided” to send you the same thing you sent all of us.

THE MOST IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT IN ALL OF HUMAN HISTORY
Importance: High: Friends, family, well wishers; This announcement is to inform you that tonight, Wednesday August 10..
This announcement is to inform you that tonight, Wednesday August 10, I will begin a new, second show on kaos959.com. This show, tentatively called The Spiral Staircase*, will be live every Wednesday from 11pm – 1am, CST. Because this new show is late into the evening, spanning the midnight hour, I will take the opportunity to play dark music: industrial, noise, goth, obscure, experimental, punk, dark and heartbreaking music and sounds from all places and histories of recorded music. Also, these shows will likely be comprised of longer compositions, and far less talk from me.
How will this show differ from my other show, Vaccines for Children, which is every Friday from 3 – 5pm CST? There will of course be some crossover, but the Wed. night show will typically have less “accessible” music, whatever that means!
A note/reminder on how this works: If you live in Austin, you might be able to access the show live on your standard radio, at 95.9 FM. If the reception is bad, or if you are anywhere else in the world, you can go to kaos959.com and click LISTEN NOW during that time, and the stream will be live. Later, the shows will be archived alphabetically by show title, and you may download and stream, burn to cd, or whatever you wish. I may or may not keep a playlist on myspace.com. I have maintained a playlist for Vaccines at www.groups.myspace.com/vaccines, but no-one seems to care!
{*The name, The Spiral Staircase, comes from the film (1946) that my mom once told me scared her witless as a young girl. I have never seen it. It is detailed here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0038975/ } {Another choice for show name is Ghost Diaper. I guess whatever comes out my mouth @ 11pm will be the name of the show!}
Thank you all. Enjoy the dark.

Dixon Coulbourn
For those who may not have heard, Dixon Coulbourn, creator and maintainer of Idle Time, passed away.
The obit is here: Dixon Edge Coulbourn Born in Austin, Texas on May 17, 1962 Departed on Jul. 31, 2005 and resided in Austin, TX. Dixon was named after his grandfather, Dixon Long Coulbourn, and his father, Dixon Wall Coulbourn. Dixon Edge Coulbourn is survived by his father and his mother, Billy Gail Connell Coulbourn, his two younger brothers, Travis Eugene Coulbourn, Daniel Wall Coulbury, a nephew, Calvin Wall Coulbury, a soon-to-be niece, and Jennifer Jones. He is also survived by his cats, Tristesse and Little Red.
Dixon was born and raised in Austin, Texas, where his family still lives, and graduated from Austin High School in 1980. After studying art and English at Austin College in Sherman, Texas for two years and transferring to North Texas University, Dixon earned a B.A. in English, graduating in 1984. He worked at the Bureau of Economic Geology of the University of Texas for 18 years, rising to Senior Network Analyst, having learned about computers through courses at UT and self-study. He was an expert at operating and programming computers. His expertise with computers will be greatly missed by his family, friends, and the Bureau.
Dixon loved Yoga, swimming and being outdoors. He spent many an afternoon at Barton Springs Pool, one of his favorite places in Austin. He was an avid reader and was knowledgeable about music, birds, gardening, art, and literature. He was always expanding his awareness. He was a gifted photographer and artist. He created electronic music and wrote poetry. His web sites about Austin’s early punk scene and the Pop Group are enjoyed internationally. He at one time enjoyed kayaking, and rescued a fellow kayaker from drowning. While in O’Henry Junior High School he had a “trash can band.” He published “Idle Time,” a local music zine, from 1980 to 1986, which chronicled the Austin punk clubs and bands of the day. His photographs remain a valuable document of that era. From an early age, Dixon created short films and video, from his brothers in the Sixties to experimental and music videos for Quaquaversal, Flyover, and Lupe, his bands of the last ten years, and a solicited work for a Golden Arm Trio Project.
Dixon had a most vibrant curiosity for learning, and had a most contagious zest for life. He engaged his friends and family with charm and humor. Children and grownups alike were drawn to his playful nature and vitality. Dixon touched many lives and was deeply loved by all who knew him. He will be sorely missed by his family and many friends.
Dixon had very sharp eyes, and through his living will a blind person will see again. A burn victim will also benefit.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Dixon’s honor to The City of Austin Plant-A-Tree program, Save Our Springs Alliance, or Lighthouse International.
The family will receive friends from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday, August 3, 2005 at Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home.
Outdoor funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, August 4, 2005 at Capital Parks Cemetery in Pflugerville.
