YES. Reading old metal threads on ILX and Metal Archives is basically all I'm into right now.

absolutely worshiping yet utterly despising the Maldives
could you elaborate on this?
― clouds, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 21:49 (ten years ago) link
i want to go there so badly but its 30-35 hrs travel time each way and a roundtrip ticket is approx $5000pp ie $20K for us just to get there. Cant imagine what a sweet hut on the water would add to that.

Two of my friends who live in England went to the Maldives for their honeymoon. I think it's shorter than that travel time wise from there but not by much. I'm pretty sure it took them a full day to finally get to their island. They did have one of those sweet huts on the water and the pictures are AMAZING. They were there for two weeks and said that by the end it started to get a little boring because there's literally nothing to do except lie around, take walks and go in the water but I guess you don't really want to fly that long to get somewhere and then leave a week later. Anyway, yeah, I want to go too.

there must be a cheaper way to get from the usa to the maldives, quick google says from £560 return from london

Yeah, I knew it was cheaper to fly from England cause those two are not loaded by any means. I think travel in general is cheaper from the UK. We don't really have anything like you guys do in terms of budget airlines and stuff. There are cheaper ones but not cheap cheap like you get over there.

wishing I had more opportunity to practise woodturning after a workshop last weekpicking up plants to grow. Doing an organic gardening courseheavy psychy stoner-ish rockgetting better at Autocad, hopefully though I get days like today when I forget everything. Maybe I'm just hyperglycaemic
Private Schulz which I just fiished watching last night. Great turn of the 80s BBC war comedy about a hapless ne'erdowell & a set of scams that always benefit other people more tahn himself.
Other old BBC series, just been watching a lot recently starting with I, Claudius, through The Borgias, the oriiginal House of Cards wityh Ian Richardson, Elizabeth R, Edge of Darkness, Boys From The Blackstuff, Our Friends In The North, started Pennies From Heaven but not really gotte into it so far, may try a bit further though. Got some Brideshead Revisited burnt next but having trouble converting it, not working with what I have been using for the last couple of months.
long islamic shirts now that the weather's getting warmer.
Action philosophers comic book summaries of the great philosophers.
looking forward to the new Ugly Things and Flashback! later this month.

It has "Moon-Boots" by ORS which is prob my #1 all time disco jam
― siouxsan sarandon (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 10 May 2013 22:52 (ten years ago) link
Also fyi the *quintessential* Levan album is Gwen Guthrie's "Padlock" which is a remix album he did. It's probably the best disco album of all time, really.

Also, once you start digging deeper there's a fantastic series of compilations called Disco Discharge; they're all 2xCD and there's maybe like 20 all together? They all have themes, too (Disco Ladies, Euro Disco, Gay Disco, Disco Exotica, etc.)
