John Lash - Feminine Mojo - Part Two




Unlikely as it may seem John Lash was championing the misrepresented role of the feminine in the spiritual for decades  before he became famous through his Not In His Image book. I knew this anyway from an anecdote when he first met Joanna Harcourt Smith, but I was going through his Metahistory information and his journey against the patriarchal spiritual Mafia has been right from the beginning.

John Lash - Feminine Mojo Show - Part One



Unfortunately the excellent Telestai.org site has been shut down for fear of reprisals from a security state that has no problems with suggestions that Israel assassinate the President but jumps into its riot gear when choosing easier victims that are keen to rid the planet of Archontic forces.

The original Feminine Mojo shows with Jamie Walters are over here.

I Hated You, I Loved You Too.


Written at the age of 18 years old and performed here at the age of 19. It's a remarkable song if only for the way Kate Bush squeezes the lyrics and syntax to achieve something different for "so cold, let me in your window" with emphasis on the second syllable of the last word not the first syllable as would be expected. 

As soon as I understood what she did just now here, I realised it was as pure as art gets in a singer, song writing (not forgetting interperative dance) and then I thought of the parallels (lines) with Debbie Harry's lyrical contortions and Mezzo Soprano vocal transitions in Heart of Glass that made the song worth posting too. They both sing of the love/hate dynamic often found between lovers, which I have to say I'm not a fan of in real life, but recognise as productive and useful in many relationships I've observed.


Whatever you think of these two songs I've yet to hear someone sing them so that they are indistinguishable from the original. If you do let me know.

Dangerous Data

Jason Oke of Leo Burnett Toronto pretty much demolishes the idea that people tell the objective truth during quantitative questionnaires in a post today. It blows up the myth of veracity by demonstrating one of the most flaccid of urban legends. Any study which suggests that men are more promiscuous than women flops miserably by failing to acknowledge two really important factors. Firstly it takes two to tango and secondly many men exaggerate their sexual activity. Or maybe the figures have been 'inflated' by other elements? There's a time and a place for quantitative questionnaires and so in the interests of trying to make them workable I always say quick and dirty is a good rule of thumb.

I make no excuses for making a post with the most puns on this occasion.
