Curious that these singers appear to be another TRIO, and yet, at tea-time
there isn’t a “Trio” in sight. Meanwhile Kellogg’s Corn Flakes are clockable
on the kitchen counter.

Football Songs do not always have to be so directly ABOUT “the beautiful game“.
“Nessun Dorma” from Giacomo Puccini’s opera “Turandot” became a [HUGE HIT]
((“)Number 2(“) (and that’s about right)) as a result of the BBC choosing and
using it as the theme for its coverage of the Italia ‘90 World Cup Tournament. The
eponymous heroine of the <3 Act Opera>has <3 Riddles> solved by Càlaf, a
<suitor>(who apparently doesn’t <suit her>), this hero then has to <”marry“
Russian Roulette to Rumpelstiltskin>dragging a dutiful game through an awful
all-nighter before he can dismiss Miss’s misses and make her his lawful “Mrs.”.

“All’alba vincerò ! Vincerò ! Vincerò !” meaning : “At dawn I will win ! I will win !
I will win !“, closes Càlaf’s crepuscular chorusing. Here it is – celebrated, in Concert,
(and in tune (if not in Consett or in Tunisia)) by the collective called the”3 Tenors“
- a thrilling, trilling trio (not a “Trio“) “composed” and comprised of 2 singing
Spainiards and 1 intoning Italian – the <GLEESOME THREESOME> of :
José Carreras, Plácido Domingo and Luciano Pavarotti.

The Three Tenors Perform “Nessun Dorma” in Rome, 1990 :

Luciano’s particular connection with soccer was that, in youth, he had had ambitions
to become a professional goalkeeper. (He perspired and) it transpired that a different
sort of “perfect pitch” was to out-weigh his formative fixation with the football field.

The vigilant chanting, for a desired victory, of the 3-times-implored “I will win !” struck

""Little "(Hans)" Jimmy Greaves

Here’s someone with “glasses” who may soon make a right
spectacle of himself. The screen credit states that he is :

““Little “(Hans)” Jimmy Greaves“.

“Little Hans” (and what he DOES with his Little Hands) is the infant
(micturating-minor) subject of a Case Study undertaken by the
psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. The Wikipedia article about opera
composer Herbert Graf suggests that he and “Little Hans” were one
and the same. Small circles. OPERA. Everything is connected.

“Little Jimmy Greaves” was a fleet-foot England International Striker
who, at 5ft 8“, wasn’t that <small> and who certainly wasn’t <short>
of goal-gaining grandeur – scoring, (by dashing in [DASHING DRAWERS],
(to eliminate [NO-SCORE DRAWS])), more than 2 scores of scores
for his country’s cause <settling the “score”> that he <didn’t score
more than Bobby Moore> who ((probably) aided and abetted)
netted 2 (totted in the back of the knotted net)
not 2 score plus 2 2s
(minus “tutus“).

The triumphant trophy-taking team of 1966 was minus this major player
on the day that they defeated Germany 4-2 but perhaps Jimmy “Grieves” no
“Moor(e)” now that he has (World Cup) Finally (June 10 2009) been awarded
a medal in recognition of his rôle in securing the England squad’s sole
stratospheric success.

Here is the man who presented the accolade :

He has his own page (if not his own “page“) here at this blog :

~ (He(e) B(e)) GBPM Gordon Brown “Performs” ~

“Little Hans” was fascinated by the “widdlers” he witnessed on zoo animals.
In 1962 “Little Jimmy Greaves”’s shirt was witnessed being “widdled on“
by a loose (loo ?) animal spoiling and soiling a possibly perfect pitch.

Enough about wee(,)people.

This <crass on the grass> creature was a Chilean Dog not a Chilli Dog.
For him, setting up a ***<Hot Dog’s Hot Dogs> Stand *** might make
for a <perfect $ales pitch> ; and if he were a she, with no balls and no
footballs, she‘d be a < perfect $ales bitch>.

I don’t know if “Little Jimmy Osmond” has perfect pitch. I do know
that he does not appear here and there’s also [NO SIGN] of “Little Eva“,
“Little Richard” or………………………………………………… Littlehampton.

[THIS] is a sign at  Littlehampton Railway Station :

("Welcome to Littlehampton") Railway Station

“Little Eva” might (emote and) loco-mote to it, although, it’s a “Sign o’ the Times“
(that Prince is the new “Little Richard” (Hmm. I wonder if that <A1 K9> was called
“Prince”) and), that these days (with no “New Power Generation“) she’d have to
<[STEAM IN] with the spectres>(if not the Spectors (or the Ticket Inspectors))
on a <ghost train>.

…and where <goest rain> ?

Does it “Go West, young man,” or does it go to the West Riding with [THIS]
tempestuously tonsured “(“)young(“) man” who may or may not be the “Long
Haired Lover from Liverpool” sung of (“With or Without (You“, ewes, U2 or)
perfect pitch) by a less-”long haired” and substantially younger “young
man“, whilst contemplating, by qualification of his pseudo-Scousery,
the relative claims of Anfield and Goodison Park to be the more
(not Bobby Moore or Yorkshire Moor) perfect pitch ?

Might “Little Eva” champion “(Little) Eva“ton ?
My ! My ! That’d be “mint” ;…………. “sweet” !

Sweeter than these sweethearts’ stormy stumblings :

Long Haired(/Haretoned) Lover from Liverpool :

The doomed duo “blew it”, blown <other-world>ly by the (football
AND cloud-clobbering fan-exceeding) wuther of the weather…

…And so from a weather-beaten Young Man to…

Carl Gustav (Wind ?) Jung

…a Basel-weathered Jung Man, via a turbulent turbine or a free
“gust of wind” for his “Gustav (Wind ?)“. “Carl“, it may be noted,
means : “Man“.

"Tell me about your Father (") Christmas

“Tell me about your Father (“) Christmas”

“Tell me about your father(/mother/childhood,)” might well be the the
first demand of a psychoanalyst probing their (patient (?)) patient.

“Father Christmas” is a reference to appearance.
[THIS] is not his sole appearance.

Sigmund Freud was a “BROWN Eyed Handsome Man“
I checked this with the Freud Society.

“People did not believe in my facts and thought my theories unsavoury,”
- SIGMUND FREUD (THE REAL) on SCRATCHY VINYL by the (“)muff(“)led

Sigmund Freud - Big Bad Muvva Luvva

“Big Bad Muvva Luvva” = “Big Bad MOTHER-”Lover“”.

Is it an inky inclination, insisting incest, that Sigmund Freud
(almost (all moist ?) in his <birthday suit>), keeps close to
his heart yet needs to get off his chest ?

Would it be (dumbly) <hum DRUM> but not “keeping (“mum(“)”
to ask if “Totem and Taboo” should be “Totem and Tattoo” ?

end at the end of [THIS] “This is The End“.

~ MAKING “ENDS” MEAT ~

The “The End” at the end of [THIS] “This is The End” is the
“the end” at **BOTH** ends of “The End” – The Doors‘ opening
album-closing, career-commencing, epic, Attic, musical monologue.

“End”s might meet, over meat, at a meal that’s replete, to over-eat with
a fine “Feast of Friends” ; tuck, hosted and toasted by the <main “Man(>)
Down“ing this Beggars Banquet-rivalling repast : one (over the eight,
over-voicing, over-reaching, over-too-soon) James Douglas Morrison
whose arrestingly Oedipal onstage outpourings and percussively
punctuated poetic posturings saw his and his (sometimes banned but
never bland) band propelled to prosperous prominence until the sway
of the swigger singer’s (unJagger) swagger awed (and disordered)
audiences, alarming anxious authorities who sought to shorten his
beautiful (“)(a) (little) game” by calling a (more than cooling)
[PENALTY !]
playing the less reefer-y referee’s <(well) red card> against the
(no more “stoned” than “The Stones“) rocked rocker’s <well-read card>.

[SNAP !] it said and [SNAP !] he did.

There’s another “Man Down”, left, let down, on the left. Wincing, he is
David Beckham – England’s most-snapped Captain, a snappy-dresser
off the field he has been dismissed from for the deviant display of both
snapped tempers and snapped tendons.

In 2002, following a metatarsal-mashing clash with Aldo Duscher, the
bone-bruised Beckham had mere weeks in which to, at least, match match
(“Ooo ! That’s a [SNAP !]” and Ooo ! That’s a quote from “Bod” which was
voiced and scored by Derek Griffiths who sings in the Trio advert
previously posted so that’s : [SNAP !] again ! Two [SNAP !]s !! [SNAP !])
fitness in order to fly out to and partake in that year’s World Cup Competition.

No doubt his tormented toe would have caused his foot to balloon.
“Oedipus” means “swollen foot”. That’s <SIMPLE>, not <COMPLEX>.

They think it's all over

Perhaps it is “<SIMPLE> Soap” that John Terry is detecting on his digit.
“NOT PERFUMED. NOT COLOURED. JUST KIND.”, the delicate
detergent could be good for his <COMPLEX>ion – but, clearly, it can’t
defend the Defender, and his troubled team-mates, from getting into
a lather as the <Centre Back> et al are <sent er back> for “an early bath“.

This <crass on the grass> creature was a Chilean Dog not a Chilli Dog.
For him, setting up a ***<Hot Dog’s Hot Dogs> Stand *** might make
for a <perfect $ales pitch> ; and if he were a she, with no balls and no
footballs, she‘d be a < perfect $ales bitch>.

I don’t know if “Little Jimmy Osmond” has perfect pitch. I do know
that he does not appear here and there’s also [NO SIGN] of  “Little Eva“,
“Little Richard” or………………………………………………… Littlehampton.

[THIS] is a sign at Littlehampton Railway Station :

“Little Eva” might (emote and) loco-mote to it, although, it’s a “Sign o’ the Times“
(that Prince is the new “Little Richard” (Hmm. I wonder if that <A1 K9> was called
“Prince”) and), that these days (with no “New Power Generation“) she’d have to
<[STEAM IN] with the spectres>(if not the Spectors (or the Ticket Inspectors))
on a <ghost train>.

…and where <goest rain> ?

Does it “Go West, young man,” or does it go to the West Riding with [THIS]
tempestuously tonsured “(“)young(“) man” who may or may not be the “Long
Haired Lover from Liverpool” sung of (“With or Without (You“, ewes, U2 or)
perfect pitch) by a less-”long haired” and substantially younger “young
man“, whilst contemplating, by qualification of his pseudo-Scousery,
the relative claims of Anfield and Goodison Park to be the more
(not Bobby Moore or Yorkshire Moor) perfect pitch ?

Might “Little Eva” champion “(Little) Eva“ton ?
My ! My ! That’d be “mint” ;…………. “sweet” !

Sweeter than these sweethearts’ stormy stumblings :

Long Haired(/Haretoned) Lover from Liverpool :

The doomed duo “blew it”, blown <other-world>ly by the (football
AND cloud-clobbering fan-exceeding) wuther of the weather…

…And so from a weather-beaten Young Man to…

…a Basel-weathered Jung Man, via a turbulent turbine or a free
“gust of wind” for his “Gustav (Wind ?)“. “Carl“, it may be noted,
means : “Man“.

“Tell me about your father(/mother/childhood,)” might well be the the

“Father Christmas” is a reference to appearance.
[THIS] is not his sole appearance.

Sigmund Freud was a “BROWN Eyed Handsome Man“
I checked this with the Freud Society.

“People did not believe in my facts and thought my theories unsavoury,”
- SIGMUND FREUD (THE REAL) on SCRATCHY VINYL by the (“)muff(“)led

“Big Bad Muvva Luvva” = “Big Bad MOTHER-”Lover“”.

Is it an inky inclination, insisting incest, that Sigmund Freud
(almost (all moist ?) in his <birthday suit>), keeps close to
his heart yet needs to get off his chest ?

Would it be (dumbly) <hum DRUM> but not “keeping (“mum(“)”
to ask if “Totem and Taboo” should be “Totem and Tattoo“  ?

Microsoft Photo Draw 2000 V2 will be ten on the last day of the year and I still rate it a 10/10. Un-10-tatively, I’m going to blam on about it again – having lifted the following from a post (where it made a naughty and rather inappropriate imposition) at my OTHER blog – the NeatRetreat one that is supposed to be FREE of my whining about having my sweets (or suites) stolen.

I am <ridiculously in love> with Microsoft PhotoDraw 2000
Version 2. This excellent package, the evolution of Microsoft Image
Composer (known to users of Microsoft FrontPage), was ahead of
its time, on release, at the turn of the millenium. I imagine it failed to
win the following it more than deserved (and CONTINUES TO
DESERVE (!!!!)) because it was marketed, as an “Office” application to
businesses that were unlikely to have had enough RAM (contemporary
reviews suggested 64MB as a requirement) and general graphical GRUNT
installed in their low-end PCs to be able to run it – thus they had no choice
but to disMisS it and MisS out.

The iPod should never have <slit the throat> of the Sony Walkman
and Microsoft should NOT HAVE MURDERED THEIR BRIGHTEST BABY.

If you also enjoy Microsoft PhotoDraw 2000 V2, think you might have
done, given the chance, and would like to see it re-vamped and resurrected,
it’s easy to send the software giant an e.mail telling them so. They were unable
to assure me that the program would run in Vista, Windows 7 or any future
operating system – so I have no confidence that my favourite software will
run on a new machine – therefore I have NO MOTIVATION TO BUY and will
ONLY do so when my current computer breaks beyond all repair.

For me, a computer WITHOUT Microsoft PhotoDraw is NOT a computer.

If Microsoft created a contemporary, guaranteed-compatible,  graphics
solution that only had to be AS GOOD AS PhotoDraw, I’d be able to make
further purchases from them. I’d WANT the new OS and I’d WANT the arts
package.

WHY are they letting Adobe and the Apple Mac steal a march on them ?

As it makes no (surface) SENSE, did it make them some (back-handed) CENTS ?
Did they mothball <<a winning product>> because it was VERY GOOD and
VERY QUICK and VERY EASY to use and therefore presents (nearly) NO
learning curve and so requires <NO TRAINING> leaving no space for people
trying to  make a living from $elling cour$e$ – which generally seem
to revolve  around showing students <<WHERE the buttons are>> in
DELIBERATELY unwieldy user interfaces constructed by behemoths to
baffle the blinkered and preclude the POOR from PSD participation ?

Isn’t the <PICTURE> “the BIGGER PICTURE” ?

Heh. “Our way or the Highway”.

No way !

…..No wait !

A reading of Robert Southey’s pre-Goldilocks “The Story of the Three Bears”.

The Story of the Three Bears  
Written By Robert Southey
Read by AuralAurora

ONCE upon a time there were three Bears, who lived together in a house
of their own in a wood. One of them was a Little, Small, Wee Bear; and one
was a Middle-sized Bear, and the other was a Great, Huge Bear. They had
each a pot for their porridge, a little pot for the Little, Small, Wee Bear;
and a middle-sized pot for the Middle Bear; and a great pot for the Great,
Huge Bear. And they had each a chair to sit in: a little chair for the Little,
Small, Wee Bear; and a middle-sized chair for the Middle Bear; and a great
chair for the Great, Huge Bear. And they had each a bed to sleep in: a little
bed for the Little, Small, Wee Bear; and a middle-sized bed for the Middle
Bear; and a great bed for the Great, Huge Bear.

One day, after they had made the porridge for their breakfast and poured
it into their porridge pots, they walked out into the wood while the porridge
was cooling, that they might not burn their mouths by beginning too soon
to eat it. And while they were walking a little old woman came to the house.
She could not have been a good, honest, old woman; for, first, she looked in
at the window, and then she peeped in at the keyhole, and, seeing nobody in
the house, she lifted the latch. The door was not fastened, because the bears
were good bears, who did nobody any harm, and never suspected that
anybody would harm them. So the little old woman opened the door and
went in; and well pleased she was when she saw the porridge on the table.
If she had been a good little old woman she would have waited till the bears
came home, and then, perhaps, they would have asked her to breakfast, for
they were good bears – a little rough or so, as the manner of bears is, but for
all that very good-natured and hospitable. But she was an impudent, bad old
woman, and set about helping herself.

So first she tasted the porridge of the Great Huge Bear, and that was too hot
for her; and she said a bad word about that. And then she tasted the porridge
of the Middle Bear, and that was too cold for her; and she said a bad word
about that, too. And then she went to the porridge of the Little, Small, Wee
Bear, and tasted that, and that was neither too hot nor too cold, but just right;
and she liked it so well that she ate it all up; but the naughty old woman said a
bad word about the little porridge pot, because it did not hold enough for her.

Then the little old woman sat down in the chair of the Great, Huge Bear, and
that was too hard for her. And then she sat down in the chair of the Middle
Bear, and that was too soft for her. And then she sat down in the chair of the
Little Small, Wee Bear, and that was neither too hard nor too soft, but just
right. So she seated herself in it, and there she sat till the bottom of the chair
came out, and down came she, plump upon the ground. And the naughty
old woman said wicked words about that, too.

Then the little old woman went upstairs into the bedchamber in which the
three Bears slept. And first she lay down upon the bed of the Great, Huge
Bear, but that was too high at the head for her. And next she lay down upon
the bed of the Middle Bear, and that was too high at the foot for her. And
then she lay down upon the bed of the Little, Small, Wee Bear, and that was
neither too high at the head nor at the foot, but just right. So she covered
herself up comfortably, and lay there till she fell asleep. By this time the
three Bears thought their porridge would be cool enough, so they came
home to breakfast. Now the little old woman had left the spoon of the Great,
Huge Bear standing in his porridge.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN AT MY PORRIDGE!”

said the Great, Huge Bear, in his great gruff voice. And when the Middle Bear
looked at his, he saw that the spoon was standing in it, too. They were wooden
spoons; if they had been silver ones the naughty old woman would have put
them in her pocket.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN AT MY PORRIDGE!”

said the middle Bear, in his middle voice.

Then the Little, Small, Wee Bear looked at his, and there was the spoon
in the porridge pot, but the porridge was all gone.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN AT MY PORRIDGE, AND HAS EATEN IT ALL UP!”

said the Little, Small, Wee Bear, in his little, small, wee voice.

Upon this the three Bears, seeing that some one had entered their house
and eaten up the Little, Small, Wee Bear’s breakfast, began to look about
them. Now the little old woman had not put the hard cushion straight
when she rose from the chair of the Great, Huge Bear.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY CHAIR!”

said the Great, Huge Bear, in his great, rough, gruff voice.

And the little old woman had squatted down the soft cushion of the
Middle Bear.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY CHAIR!”

said the Middle Bear, in his middle voice.

And you know what the little old woman had done to the third chair.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY CHAIR, AND HAS SAT
THE BOTTOM OUT OF IT!”

said the Little, Small, Wee Bear, in his little, small, wee voice.

Then the three bears thought it necessary that they should make
further search; so they went upstairs into their bedchamber. Now
the little old woman had pulled the pillow of the Great, Huge Bear
out of its place.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN LYING IN MY BED!”

said the Great, Huge Bear, in his great, rough, gruff voice.

And the little old woman had pulled the bolster of the Middle Bear
out of its place.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN LYING IN MY BED!”

said the Middle Bear, in his middle voice.

And when the Little, Small, Wee Bear came to look at his bed, there
was the bolster in its place, and upon the pillow was the little old
woman’s ugly, dirty head-which was not in its place, for she had
no business there.

“SOMEBODY HAS BEEN LYING IN MY BED-AND HERE SHE IS!”

said the Little, Small, Wee Bear, in his little, small, wee voice.

The little old woman had heard in her sleep the great, rough,
gruff voice of the Great, Huge Bear, but she was so fast asleep
that it was no more to her than the moaning of wind or the
rumbling of thunder. And she had heard the middle voice of
the Middle Bear, but it was only as if she had heard some one
speaking in a dream. But when she heard the little, small, wee
voice of the Little, Small, Wee Bear, it was so sharp and so shrill
that it awakened her at once. Up she started, and when she saw
the three bears on one side of the bed she tumbled herself out
at the other and ran to the window. Now the window was open,
because the Bears, like good, tidy bears as they were, always
opened their bedchamber window when they got up in the
morning. Out the little old woman jumped, and whether she
 broke her neck in the fall or ran into the wood and was lost
there, or found her way out of the wood and was taken up by
the constable and sent to the House of Correction for a vagrant
as she was, I cannot tell. But the three Bears never saw anything
more of her.

My first rough lip-synching animation created with Reallusion’s latest iteration of “Crazy Talk Pro“. This version (number 6) includes an additional hair mesh that lets you include odd appendages (such as skull-top ears and horns) within your original Project which is a great help when trying to create an impression of three dimensions.

This cat still has some dead-eye-ness, the left one is breaking so I need to try to improve the Model as well as fix the two-tone green screen – the background was SUPPOSED to be a single shade. I probably WON’T attach this head to a body – but will try some close-up angles instead. I need to compose them so that I don’t waste the DEPTH.

iClone 4 is set for a September release and, amongst the anticipatory excitement inspired by the promise that it will be easier to handle, output prettier visuals and yet place significantly LESS strain on system resources (!), runs a rumour about a Hair Style Creation Tool. “Rumour”, I think, is the wrong word as I am sure this applet exists, I just don’t know whether it will be bundled as part of the main package or sold separately as an add-on, much as CloneCloth is.

I am certainly MUCH in need of something that can repair this sort of NO GO D.A. and will be “like toad alley wiggin’ out” (whether “Wiggins” is out or not) if I can put an end to these rear-view breakages :

I don’t doubt that I am going to have to completely re-rig this character’s head (and dump the 60 Crazy Talk 5 speech files I made for him) in order to take advantage of the new in-program facial animation. I hope this is fully manually keyframable and wonder if it will actually be well in advance of what’s currently available for 2D images in Crazy Talk 6.

Having sorted out his toupee, I will still need to address this kind of accidental Raggedy Annie-ery

Impoverished, perhaps….. threadbare, I think NOT ; and this was a clothing modification with the latest Template.

Nursie says today I am to have an early bath
She’s drawn it up and filled it full before a blazing hearth
I do not care for being clean
I do not wish to wash
There is no need to primp and preen
Nor in the water splosh

But Nursie says she can’t concur
With what I reasonably aver
She’s lunging at me with big jugs
And scrubbing HARD behind my lugs

Her claim’s they’re full of cabbages – which REALLY ticks me off
I never go near vegetables, they’re NOT my sort of scoff
She shrieks that I‘m a “dashed cross-patch”
Who should “Sit still !” and be “Less shrill !”
and never – NEVER – scratch !
