I used to think collecting hand towels from every nation was the lamest
hobby, but devoting endless hours to "discovering" such accidents of
correspondence (especially as their degree of imagined "synchronization"
is so extremely subjective and usually wholly a matter of patient
disregard of reality) strikes me as a navel gazing activity par
excellent. I've found that if one is in a receptive (aka "needy") frame
of mind almost any film and any recording will appear to "sync". Try any
Adam Sandler film and any Celine Dion album. Oh - and add a few pulls on
the bong too...

If you play the vinyl version of The White Album in reverse and by hand,
making certain to go backwards in strict 26.78 rpm from side 4 to side
1, it will be a perfect sync with a cheap home movie made by Esther
McDowell in 1956. Especially enthralling is the sequence 37.21-41.56
minutes into the film when what sounds to be a backward cello precisely
evokes and reiterates the vignette of Esther making tollhouse cookies in
a cute gingham apron, as her husband (Rollo) mugs in the back ground.
This would be a three bong hit sync!

Agreed. For me it was Fritz Lang's Metropolis, well before Queen did a
soundtrack to it. As I recall, we were tugging on the bong and listening to
classical music on the radio. And it all seemed to sync very well.
It was around 1981 or so. My friend borrowed it on film along with the
projector, all from the library whilst the music was provided by CBC FM.

Big *classical* works (orchestral) lend themselves to *sound-tracking*
silent films...particularly the impressionists like Debussy and Ravel.
Mahler symphonies can *do the trick * too. Certain *piano* works will
add charm to a Buster Keaton flicker.

Klein Bottle Trivia
* A mounted Klein bottle is the trophy for the BASIC WonderCup Challenge.
* The TV series Futurama has a brand of beer, Klein's Beer, sold in a
Klein bottle.
* The British Science Museum has on display a beautiful collection of
hand-blown glass Klein bottles, exhibiting many variations on the same
topological theme. The bottles date from 1995 and were made for the museum by
Alan Bennett.
* Russell Hoban's 2001 novel Amaryllis Night and Day makes extensive use
of the Klein bottle as a metaphor. The display of bottles at London's Science
Museum, and Alan Bennett himself, also feature in the book.
* In the computer game Nethack, attempting to dip a potion into itself
gives the message, "That is a potion bottle, not a Klein bottle!"
* Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros have a song entitled "Mega Bottle Ride"
which describes a journey "into the fourth dimension" via the "Banchoff-Klein
Mega Bottle Ride".
* In the Janine Melnitz, Ghostbuster episode of the TV show The Real
Ghostbusters, Ray mentions adding another Klein bottle to the Containment
Unit.
* In the book Visitors From Oz, the characters construct a Klein bottle to
travel from Oz to Earth.
* In the Infocom game Trinity, a giant Klein bottle figures prominently,
and is used to help solve one of the puzzles.
* Clifford Stoll, author of The Cuckoo's Egg, manufactures Klein bottles
and sells them via the Internet at Acme Klein Bottle.
* The Magic: The Gathering card Elkin Bottle shows a 3D representation of
a Klein bottle. The card name is an obvious anagram of Klein.
* American computer scientist Ted Kaehler was visiting Germany and walked
into a glass-blower's shop. He asked for "ein Klein Flasche." The glass-blower
handed him a small bottle, as "klein" means "small". Kaehler eventually had to
draw a Klein bottle on paper before the artisan understood what he was asking
for; he was able to make one, although it was not a real Klein bottle.

That makes sense.
I've experienced Dark Side of the Moon and The Wizard of Oz sync'd.
It's a keeper!

True.
They did, however, perform the soundtrack for the 1980 FLASH GORDON
film. Did they also do something for HIGHLANDER?

Have you heard the live version from the "Live Aid" concert?
Queen stole the show with it. A very powerful performance:

Sorry about that.
It's funny that I recall going to a bar and seeing Siouxie Sioux and her
Banshees with Magazine's John McGeoch, or having a long talk about Jazz music
with Jools Holland in 1983 (both at the El Mocambo in Toronto) and recalling
what we talked about, but forget stuff like that.
But you're right. It was Radio Gaga. And though Moroder was a "disco king".
I loved his stuff (and detested Disco).
Every week, at the end of the variety show "Q" on CBC in Canada, the host
reads the credits for the sound engineers and producers.
He does it to "Disco Inferno" by The Trammps. Which is "still catchy"
Bart Simpson
I think it was outstanding. And I have some of it on tape that never made
it to the DVD because a buddy of mine taped the entire Live Aid concert, so I
duplicated it. After 24 years, the quality is horrible!
I have the DVD though!
My first and only Queen show was at the Maple Leaf Gardens in '75 or so, and
the opening act was Thin Lizzy.
What a great set of acts.

I only got into Moroder because I was an underage drinker at a local that
featured disco. At the time, I was pre-Ramones, pre-Elvis Costello and more
into ELP, Floyd. But Disco sucked.
But Georgio Moroder's sound, set up in a discoteque with massive bass speakers
and all that stuff, is why I remember him so well.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Ear splitting horns, bass that got you in the gut.
Holding on to a beer glass that was dancing on the table because of the
thunder!
Sounds like "Disco Inferno" and the other stuff from Saturday Night Fever's
soundtrack that he produced. We only went there because our girlfriends liked
the scene. ;)
It wasn't what I played at home. But I won't forget it.

So whats the verdict on Sean these days fokes?? Good or bad singa??
I feel hes okay, but not quite up their with his mom or dad. The fact
is,. I lissened to him on a few TV shows and Youtube. and just din't
rush out to buy his VD's like I do with John or Yoke. Then again, hes
still yung, and he has time ta develop his talons, mebbe get some
classical trainin from his cotton pickin mom.
So anotha thing...is he strait or gay?? I gotta say,. theirs nuthin
wrong with gay. Like, when the Yoke wouldnt touch me, even tho she
was the fodda fer 30 years of my wankin, I sperimented aroun a bit,
cruised the castro with beat stash and mirra shades...when into the
theata, sat down nexta a nice man....Hoped mebbe wed become friends
but he shortly gottup and moved away...mebbe he wasnt reddy fer a
"serious" commipment yet..guess well never klnow...tho I did go back
to the theta each weekend ferra a few yearss afta that, hopin he
mighta changed his mi nd...
So anotha question bout Sean....is he cute or fugly??? Some say hes
offin quite plump or even "fat" if you will...not that thertes anythin
wrong wiffdat...in fact, all the burgas, fries, pizzas, chilli cheese
dogs and not to mention my four or five 40's a day...and all the
reefage I do I guess also slow
's me down a bit....so what I'm sayin is, Im quite "fat" myself, so
what the firks wrong if Sean is too??? Im presdent o RM freakin B fer
Godsakes!!
Hey fokes....Ole MC just got an idear....Mebbe Seans the man fer
me???
Whaddaya say fokes?? Is this an idear worth purseuin??
Nuff daid

Thank you for pronouncing 'slang' when you write.
It gives a clue to the colloquial, and is much appreciated by me.

I think it's a fun unique hobby to have. I commend you for it. I don't
think it's crazy at all. And I'll bet that compared to what some of
these sick fucks do behind closed doors you look like Sigmund fuckin
Freud.

I didn't say it was "crazy" - I said it was "lame".
