court composer


so, i've been watching my widescreen 'amadeus' all day and all evening with the french subtitles on. and now that i come to the 'midnight keys,' i see that its wayyyy time for me to start a new picture file. so, i'm going to get that going, but in the meantime, i'm going to let f. murray abraham-as-salieri hold my place. man, he rocks! (but i don't remember there being a 'rock me salieri' song topping those early 80's charts.) still, here is salieri, holding his cat mask in place, as he holds MY place here on the planet. i should have some more new groovy stuff posted soon. until then... i love you all.

a is for...


hello lovers. i must admit, after two weeks of cynically bagging on the olympic games, i found myself sucked in. i've been watching most of the swimming and gymnastics in the evening. that is one of the reasons i haven't posted much lately. another reason is i've been sort of stuck for ideas... so, as a jump-starter, i've decided to go down the alphabet, creating my own semi-psychedelic list. you know, like in children's books... 'a is for apple,' and all that. but tonight on planetcool, i'm able to give you a groovy one-two punch... a is for 'amadeus,' the marvelous milos foreman oscar winner for best picture of 1984. its one of those movies i've loved since the first time i saw it. i proudly admit i know it by heart... well, most of it. and 'a' is also for f. murray abraham who took home the much-deserved award for best actor in a leading role.
