Its fun to read this again.  I can sing the first one, "Teen Angel".  LOL
  for answering a question that wasn't even asked on my blog post.

The dark is something I'm quite familiar with...deeply understood.

Soooo, that would make you ...

Actually, I wish I had conceived of a more creative way to end this blog (as I did with the other one) ... but the fact is, I didn't know I was leaving when I posted this.

Mademoiselle, I know that I am a little late in commenting to this blog or early depending on your point of view (early if I am trying to make the first entry for the anniversary blowout). Every time I open your Member Profile page, I see the defunct blog with a reference to "Teen Angel" at the top of the heap. "Teen Angel" is a Classic of my youth. It was released in the 50s when I was in grade school. It wailed out of scratchy AM stations for a decade or more. My God! How maudlin! I love it! Sang it over and over. And you wonder why I am so dark, moody and dramatic and why I can't come up with a "light" blog. Are you getting any clues here?  Moon_Spirit

I should have given this blog a better "send off" though ...
Like I gave the other one.  Perhaps I'll rectify that slight someday.

No, I hadn't heard that before, Burly ...
Nor did I realize people were still commenting here, actually.

Did you know that Mark Dinning is related to, and I'm not sure what generation, to the girl singers who called themselves the Dinning sisters and sang pop tunes back a half-century or so ago.

Good song
I have always liked Tom Petty.

Also, I will remind everyone that...
I actually have a current blog, as well, which people may wish to check out.  Cause, it's like all "super good".

People occasionally coming to this one...

I can sorta understand. 

I mean, it was a very informative blog (which is why I've left it up).

I read your comment below. These blogs are still here for us to click. Lol.

Christ, this is the first time you've seen THIS post!

At any rate, I loved that video.  Five best videos ever:

5. "Buddy Holly" (Weezer)

4. "Ironic" (Alanis Morrisette)

3. "Don't Come Around Here No More" (Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers)

2. "In Bloom" by Nirvana

1.  (three way tie) ... "1979", "Tonight, Tonight" and "Today" (all by the greatest band in the history of the world, Smashing Pumpkins)

wonderful poem ans how could anyone not like Tom Petty and the Heartbreaker
The video, thought a little morbit, like the heart breakers, it broke my heart. ~Silly

Okay! This is getting really annoying...
Has anyone happened to notice that these blogs haven't been updated in a really, really long time?  Now, you see, that means they've ended ... and I've moved on.  And, so should you.

posted by Mademoiselle on February 3, 2006 at 12:00 AM | link to this | reply

Never liked 'Teen Angel'. Too sappy. But I love the Petty tune.

Petty's song seems like a druggy dirge to me....

We remembered but how can we keep on clicking and commenting when the blogger isn't around?

Welcome back!

God! A person doesn't update for a few years...
and suddenly everyone stops clicking on her blogs?! How fickle you people are!

In all seriousness, becoming situated in my new location proved (far) more time-consuming than previously imagined ... at least by me.

Of course, the death of "The Death Blog" was inevitable anyway, seeing as I have been banned from the central library's "public archives" department (for supposedly making "a scene"). Thus, I no longer have access to the national death registry.

Soooo, for the time being, I will exist only in "comment-form". Not unlike the little mute girl in Ingmar Bergman's "Fanny and Alexander" ... or, even, the dancing chicken in Werner Herzog's "Stroszek".

However, I do hope to create a new blog (most likely some sort of "movie thing") JASAHP.

I think she hinted that she was going off somewhere.

Okay, I am getting nervous here.
Madame posts a bunch of things about strange deaths, then suicides then "Last Dance with Mary Jane," and then does not post for 8 days?  Anyone know if she is vacationing/okay?

What are you doing? You dare neglect your sacred duty to update?

Madama PO, you see that special news report on Japanese suicide triads

meeting online and killing themselves together, strangers one and all? Now, someone is pulling them in via chat rooms and killing them, which makes them all (any survivors) very sad, as they want to do a group thing, no survivors and not have someone be an executioner. Someone is taking advantage of them, using their despair to their own ends. Tragic, no? Mondo Cane, mondo loco.

"You have to be very careful when chatting about these things with potential suicide mates online as it could be the executioner", one fellow said. "It is why I've decided to kill myself alone, once again."

They could form short term Geroge Sanders Clubs and then dissolve them as they die of boredom, together. Suicide grows madly over there. Shows that all of us need meaningful work and good friends (who want to live).

A little "poetic" death...or goodbye...or something!

In summer's mellow midnight,
 A cloudless moon shone through 
Our open parlour window
And rosetrees wet with dew.
 
I sat in silent musing,
 The soft wind waved my hair:
 It told me Heaven was glorious.
and sleeping earth was fair.
 
I needed not its breathing 
to bring such thoughts to me,
 But still it whispered lowly,
 " How dark the woods will be!
 The thick leaves in my murmur
 Are rustling like a dream,
 And all their myriad voices
 Instinct with spirit seem."
 
I said,"GO,gentle singer,
 Thy wooing voice is kind,
 but do not think its music
 has power to reach my mind.
"Play with the scented flower,
 The young tree's supple bough,
 and leave my human feelings
 in their own course to flow."
 The wanderer would not leave me;
 Its kiss grew warmer still-
 " O come," it sighed so sweetly,
 "I'll win thee 'gainst thy will.
 
" Have we not been from childhood  friends?
 Have I not loved thee long?
 As long as thou hast loved the night
 whose silence wakes my song.
 
" And when thy heart is laid at rest
 Beneath the church-yard stone
 I shall have time enough to mourn
 and thou to be alone."

~Emily Bronte~

I love the video (and the song)...
plus, it's my way of saying "goodbye".

Never heard of "Teen Angel", but figured some of the older folk here might appreciate the "trip down memory lane".

LOVE the video to the Mary Jane ditty...
