The Dork Group presents Age quod agis
Greetings Kiddies
Age quod agis - Do what you are doing. Or often translated - Do well whatever you do. I yoinked it from the movie Tombstone. One of my favorites.
I hope you all had a beautiful Halloween. My Halloween was awesome. I got to be home and enjoy time with my family. I have had some serious time off as of lately - and I have enjoyed every minute of it. I have been on the road for quite a few years and I believe it has taken its toll. Travelling around the world has been a wonderful experience - don't get me wrong, but sometimes the price you pay for it is a little high. It's the little things of home that are the best, and I am not aiming to trade those in anytime soon.
Not much to report as of now, since I have unplugged and enjoyed some quality time with my family. But I will share with you some of the things that I am working on and some some things I find interesting. Check my Facebook if you want to see a little of my family life.
So let's just get right into it:
Copy-written - So Don't Copy Me
Here are some of my latest ideas for The Dork Group storefront. I haven't done much with the dot com as of lately, but I have been working on the content and what I would like to use. I am still looking for that nice relationship between e-commerce and a good print distribution that won't gouge my wallet, or use substandard materials. So, if you have any suggestions please let me know. Anyway, I will be focusing my attention back to getting The Dork Group off the ground shortly.
“He (Don Juan) said that a warrior had no compassion for anyone. For him, to have compassion meant that you wished the other person to be like you, to be in your shoes, and you lent a hand for that purpose. The hardest thing in the world is for a warrior to let others be. Only a sorcerer who sees and is formless can afford to help anyone — to his understanding every effort to help on our part was an arbitrary act guided by our self interest alone.”

* I accidentally stumbled upon John Murry while browsing for music and was instantly hooked. I read his bio and became a fan. As a former Californian - I can see the picture he is describing. Great song.
Tove Lo - Habits (Stay High)
http://youtu.be/oh2LWWORoiM
I eat my dinner in my bathtub
Then I go to sex clubs
Watching freaky people gettin' it on
It doesn't make me nervous
If anything I'm restless
Yeah, I've been around and I've seen it all
I get home, I got the munchies
Binge on all my Twinkies
Throw up in the tub
Then I go to sleep
And I drank up all my money
Dazed and kinda lonely
You're gone and I gotta stay
High all the time
To keep you off my mind
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
High all the time
To keep you off my mind
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Spend my days locked in a haze
Trying to forget you babe
I fall back down
Gotta stay high all my life
To forget I'm missing you
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Pick up daddies at the playground
How I spend my daytime
Loosen up the frown,
Make them feel alive
I'll make it fast and greasy
I'm numb and way too easy
You're gone and I gotta stay
High all the time
To keep you off my mind
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
High all the time
To keep you off my mind
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Spend my days locked in a haze
Trying to forget you babe
I fall back down
Gotta stay high all my life
To forget I'm missing you
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Staying in my play pretend
Where the fun ain't got no end
Ooh
Can't go home alone again
Need someone to numb the pain
Ooh
Staying in my play pretend
Where the fun ain't got no end
Ooh
Can't go home alone again
Need someone to numb the pain
You're gone and I gotta stay
High all the time
To keep you off my mind
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
High all the time
To keep you off my mind
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Spend my days locked in a haze
Trying to forget you babe
I fall back down
Gotta stay high all my life
To forget I'm missing you
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
* My daughter and I have enjoyed this over played song. It's kinda cheese, but fun to sing out of key.

Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra - Kiss The Sky
http://youtu.be/3pHQuCezmLE
I hold my head up just enough to see the sky
And when we go we won't go slow we'll put up such a fight
When they fade into the dust and into ash
But all children know this pain will surely pass
Strong and wise and you are love
And When the tide it come you will float above and
And you will be one day exactly what you are
Just keep your head up high kiss your fist and touch the sky
Too late to keep the world from dying this time
Too late to spread the love you have
One day when we are ready for crying
One day I know that we'll be there
Too Late
The sound we hear it is our hearts they are the time
They're marching clear and swift the beat forever in our mind
It gives us hope it gives us strength you know to carry on
Keep fighting till the end and past the end you will be strong
Too late to keep the world from dying this time
Too late to spread the love you shared
And one day, ooh, we'll all be there
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yes we will
alt-J - Breezeblocks
http://youtu.be/rVeMiVU77wo
She may contain the urge to run away
But hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
Cetirizine your fever's gripped me again
Never kisses all you ever send are full stops, la, la, la
Do you know where the wild things go?
They go along to take your honey, la, la, la
Break down, now weep,
Build up breakfast, now let's eat
My love, my love, love, love, la, la, la
Muscle to muscle and toe to toe
The fear has gripped me but here I go
My heart sinks as I jump up
Your hand grips hand as my eyes shut
Do you know where the wild things go?
They go along to take your honey, la, la, la
Break down, now sleep
Build up breakfast, now let's eat
My love my love, love, love
She bruises, coughs, she splutters pistol shots
Hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
She's morphine, queen of my vaccine
My love, my love, love, love, la, la, la
Muscle to muscle and toe to toe
The fear has gripped me but here I go
My heart sinks as I jump up
Your hand grips hand as my eyes shut
She may contain the urge to run away
But hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
Germolene, disinfect the scene
My love, my love, love, love
But please don't go, I love you so, my lovely
Please don't go, please don't go
I love you so, I love you so
Please don't go, please don't go
I love you so, I love you so
Please break my heart, hey
Please don't go, please don't go
I love you so, I love you so
Please don't go, please don't go
I love you so, I love you so
Please break my heart
Please don't go, I'll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you so, I love you so
Please don't go I'll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you so, I love you so, I love you so
I'll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you so
I'll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you so
I'll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you so
Please don't go, I'll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you so, I love you so
Please don't go, I'll eat you whole
I love you so, I love you so, I love you so
alt-J - Fitzpleasure (art video in association with COSA)
http://youtu.be/5Iu8_lV275o
Tra, la, la, in your snatch fits pleasure
Broom-shaped pleasure
Deep greedy and Googling every corner
Dead in the middle
Of the C-O- double -M-O-N
Little did I know then
That the Mandela Boys soon become Mandela Men
Tall woman, pull the pylons down
And wrap them around the necks
Of all the feckless men that queue to be the next
Steepled
Fingers, ring la la la la la la la leaders
Queue jumpers
Rock fist paper scissors, la la la la la la la lingered fluffers
Be Quiet
They choir: - In your hoof lies the heartland
Where we tent for our treasure, pleasure, leisure
It's all in your eyes
In your snatch fits pleasure, broom-shaped pleasure
Deep greedy and Googling every corner
Tra, la, la, Tra, la, Tra-a, la, la la la la la la la
Ohhh, blended by the lights
* alt-J is just incredibly awesome - I am very glad to have found them.
Nappy Roots - Good Day
http://youtu.be/M3fkZeWsyvo
Let's begin Now
You know today I just woke up and I said
You know instead of waitin' on a good day
Waitin' around through up's and down's waitin'
On something to happen I just say
We're gonna have
We're gonna have
We're gonna have a good day
And all my homies gonna ride today
And all these mommies look fly today
And all we wanna do is get by today
Heyyy,
We're gonna have a good day
And ain't nobody gotta cry today
Cause ain't nobody gonna die today
Save that drama for another day
Heyyy we're gonna have a good day
Hairline fresh, new cologne on
Feelin' so good changed the color to my phone
Orange kool-aid go good with patron
A naw hell naw boy still my ring tones
Free car wash had to clean up the dodge
Get back when I can just playin' my part
Church folk had a fish fry
Mustard, hot sauce, light bread, and french fries
Love for the big guy
Hit the park, boys showin' off their hops
Nappy Roots on the radio and you know it bops
Last night I hit the pick tree bought some Air Force ones
4 tall tees man I love the Begees
We're gonna have
We're gonna have
We're gonna have a good day
And all my homies gonna ride today
And all these mommies look fly today
And all we wanna do is get by today
Heyyy,
We're gonna have a good day
And ain't nobody gotta cry today
Cause ain't nobody gonna die today
Save that drama for another day
Heyyy we're gonna have a good day
We're gonna have a good day
And I fin to worry bout what noboy say
I'm still above ground that's the reason I pray
Got my car cleaned up now I'm ready to play
Make call to the sticks say I'm headin' dat way
Heard my cousin cookin out I gotta get me a plate
Got new outfit ain't even out in the states
So if they ain't speakin' to soon but this is a hell of a day
And these dickies got me sitin' in a hell of a place
Got my stunna shades on and grin on my face
My grill looks mean but I swear I'm straight
And the hood showin' love so I'm a okay
We're gonna have
We're gonna have
We're gonna have a good day
And all my homies gonna ride today
And all these mommies look fly today
And all we wanna do is get by today
Heyyy,
We're gonna have a good day
And ain't nobody gotta cry today
Cause ain't nobody gonna die today
Save that drama for another day
Heyyy we're gonna have a good day
We might as well do what the children sayin'
Take a day off hit park and just hang
Barbque roll a few and put up your dukes
If it's beef put down the peace up and put down your dukes
It's time to change our ways
So we can save the day
For the children sake and make a better place to play
And if it's all good break out your click and grip your wood
And if you ridin' dirty just light your swift and blow yor sss...
But dot real big exactly like a player should
Enjoy your 24's do your thang and rep your hood
The world is all yours
But still we all bound forever
In a day the choice you make is relly all fine
We're gonna have
We're gonna have
We're gonna have a good day
And all my homies gonna ride today
And all these mommies look fly today
And all we wanna do is get by today
Heyyy,
We're gonna have a good day
And ain't nobody gotta cry today
Cause ain't nobody gonna die today
Save that drama for another day
Heyyy we're gonna have a good day

All she's got is the way he looks
Many miles on the other side
He had overheard her choice
And he delved off her cliffside
Sacrifice he just wants to help
Holds the world like a baby
Takes his mask off and lulls his head
Then she sees him in the screen
They both see the traps
No fool, Oh oh
They won't go back
No fool, Oh oh
They've got a mind track
No fool, Oh oh
It's all a mystery
Let it come and let it be
Oh oh
They both see the traps
No fool, Oh oh
They won't go back
No fool, Oh oh
They've got a mind track
No fool, Oh oh
It's all a mystery
Let it come and let it be
Let it come and let it be
They both see the traps
No fool, Oh oh
They won't go back
No fool, Oh oh
They've got a mind track

Asaf Avidan - Reckoning Song (One Day)
http://youtu.be/A16VcQdTL80
No more tears, my heart is dry
I don't laugh and I don't cry
I don't think about you all the time
But when I do ?I wonder why
You have to go out of my door
And leave just like you did before
I know I said that I was sure
But rich men can't imagine poor.
One day baby, we'll be old
Oh baby, we'll be old
And think of all the stories that we could have told
Little me and little you
Kept doing all the things they do
They never really think it through
Like I can never think you're true
Here I go again ? the blame
The guilt, the pain, the hurt, the shame
The founding fathers of our plane
That's stuck in heavy clouds of rain.
One day baby, we'll be old
Oh baby, we'll be old
And think of all the stories that we could have told.
Arctic Monkeys - Bigger Boys And Stolen Sweethearts
http://youtu.be/_BATj0SFx_8
There's always somebody taller with more of a wit
And he's equipped to enthrall her and her friends think he’s fit
And you just can't measure up though, you don't have a prayer
Wishing that you'd made the most of her when she was there
They've got engaged there's no intention of a wedding
He's pinched ya bird and he'd probably kick your head in
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
Oh, you’re better off without her anyway
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
Yeah, but I know you were though
Now you don't know what she's up to you can only assume
If she's not in the front of the shops then they've gone to his room
Bet she's gone 'round in her school stuff, bet that’s what he likes
I know you thought she were different and you thought she were nice
But she's not nice, she's pretty fucking far from nice
She’s looking at you funny rarely looking at you twice
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
Oh, you’re better off without her anyway
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
Yeah, but it's so clear you were though
Have you heard what she has been doing? Never did it for me
He picks her up at the school gate at twenty past three
She’s been with all of the boys but, never went very far
And she wagged English and science just to go in his car
They've got engaged there's no intention of a wedding
He's pinched me bird and he'd probably kick my head in
Oh now the girls have grown
Yeah but I'm sure that they still carry on in similar ways
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
Oh, I'm better off without her anyway
I said I wasn't sad to see her go
Yeah, but I'm only pretending, you know
Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know
I was only pretending, you know
I was only pretending, you know

Uh, Uh, Uh, 1, 2, 1, 2
Uh, Uh, 1, 2, 1, 2, uh, uh
All my dogs
It's bigger than hip hop, hip hop, hip hop, hip
It's bigger than hip hop, hip hop, hip hop, hip hop
Uh, one thing 'bout music, when it hit you feel no pain
white folks says it controls your brain
I know better than that, that's game and we ready for that
Two soldiers head of the pack, matter of fact who got the gat?
And where my army at?
Rather attack and not react
Back the beats, it don't reflect on how many records get sold
On sex, drugs, and rock and roll, whether your project's put on hold
In the real world, these just people with ideas
They just like me and you when the smoke and camera disappear
Again the real world (world), it's bigger than all these fake ass records
When poor folks got the millions and my woman's disrespected
If you check 1,2, my word of advice to you is just relax
Just do what you got to do, if that don't work then kick the facts
If you a fighter, rider, ?bout'er?, flame ignitor, crowd exciter
Or you wanna just get high, then just say it
But then if you a liar-liar, pants on fire, wolf-cry agent with a wire
I'm gonna know it when I play it
Uh, who shot Biggie Smalls?
If we don't get them, they gonna get us all
I'm down for runnin' up on them crackers in they city hall
We ride for y'all, all my dogs stay real
Nigga don't think these record deals gonna feed your seeds
And pay your bills because they not
MC's get a little bit of love and think they hot
Talkin' bout how much money they got, all y'all records sound the same
I sick of that fake thug, R & B, rap scenario all day on the radio
Same scenes in the video, monotonous material, y'all don't here me though
These record labels slang our tapes like dope
You can be next in line, and signed, and still be writing rhymes and broke
You would rather have a Lexus, some justice, a dream or some substance?
A Beamer, a necklace or freedom?
Still a nigga like me don't playa' hate, I just stay awake
This real hip hop, and it don't stop until we get the po-po off the block
They call it....
Uh, DP's got that crazy shit we keep it crunk up
John Blaze'd and shit what
Fake, fake, fake records

Sonic Youth - Sunday
with Macaulay Culkin * thankfully not dead :-)
http://youtu.be/2CXD8PK6Djc
Sunday comes alone again
A perfect day for a quiet friend
And you, you will set it free
I see new morning around your face
Everybody says its another phase
And now, now its come to me
See the magic in your eyes
I see it come as no surprise
And you, you turn your eyes away
Yeah you, you turn it all away
I guess its true its never too late
Still I don't know what to do today
Oh why can't I set you free?
Will you do the same for me?
Sunday comes and Sunday goes
Sunday always seems to move so slow
To me and here she comes again
A perfect ending to a perfect day
A perfect ending what can I say?
To you lonely Sunday friend
With you Sunday never ends
See you soon. Thank you for stopping by
