    It was written in the late 1920's. It's a Pagan Mass, if you like, it's full of passion and joy in life. It's exuberant like Verdi's Requiem is at times, nothing like Bach except in its sense of exhilaration, and, thankfully, nothing like Mahler's 8 which, to my ears is full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. The only decent music in it is the orchestral prelude to the Second Part. No, Janacek is more down to earth and passionate. There's really no-one to compare him to, you know. I suggest - if you have Spotify - to listen to it, or, there are performances on You Tube.
  2. In fact, the more I think about it, the more I understand that where you come from. It is not a very nice place, sweetie. And it's probably best if we put each other on the ignore list. Good bye. By the way, your post makes me want to puke. How can an immoral imbecile like Trump suck in so many people? It's way beyond my comprehension.
  3. What, sweetie, has hating what the USA stands for got to do with hating Westerners?
  4. The article about last year's 'chemical weapons' strike was published in Die Welt. Hersh comes to the same conclusion he came to about the 2013 attack. In other words, it was committed by US armed rebels...

  6. Glad you read it. There's also an article published in a German newspaper about the 2017 attacks: Hersh comes to the same conclusion. The bottom line is I don't trust any information that comes from USA media sources regarding any war the USA is involved in - and they are involved in too many to list, these days mostly by proxy, example, Libya, Syria, Yemen. The bottom line, Jara, is we were lied to about Vietnam, Iraq - both times, do you remember the 'Bayonets in the Humidicribs' hoax?- Libya, the so-called Ukrainian revolution etc etc etc. Obama was no better: he was just as big a liar as the rest of them once he came to power. As I've mentioned above, I came across an interview on Radio National with the Nigerian/American writer Teju Cole - it's available as a podcast - and what he says about Obama is telling.

    Maybe you'll be lucky enough to sing Janacek's Glagolitic Mass one day...

    I'd rather go chopin...

    Mahler Schmahler.

    Ah, so you're a chorister, yes, no? Anyway, give me Bruckner any day. Or Bach, or Janacek. Now there vass a composer...

    I hate Mahler 2: it's lightning hitting a scheissenhaus, the resurrection bit a regurgitation of Catholic mumbo jumbo. Give me number 7 and 9 any day. Or, Das Lied von der Erde.

    No I’m not . You should have seen the sights at Casey yesterday. They could have come from Romsey I suppose. But they were frightening....

    Resurrections only happen in Mahler Symphony number 2. You are such an uncultured hick, Moonshadow.

    Medicinal intervention can help. Do you, by chance, have a sympathetic GP? Please don't shoot any more elephants and saw their horns. It is not kosher any more. Same with hippos. Settle down, Bitter, take a hobby, learn golf, learn Hungarian, learn how to cook your grandmother's favourite recipes. Meditate. Mindfulness. Eat less donuts. Read Dostoevsky. Get cultured. Ignore the Romsey riff raff. What more can I tell you.
  15. By the way, Jara, Assad DID NOT USE CHEMICAL WEAPONS. IT IS A MSM LIE. Read Seymour Hersch about this. He is not a conspiracy theory manic, rather he is a Pulitzer Prize winning USA journalist who has written about the 2013 and 2017 so-called Chemical weapon attacks: the first was published in the London Review of Books, the second in a German newspaper. Not one USA media source would touch it. Please follow this up. We are being lied to, in the same way we were lied to about Vietnam - the so-called Tonkin incident - and lots of others. Just allow me to mention Saddam Hussein and his Weapons of Mass destruction....

    Smoking bananas is so De Rigeur. Anyway, smoking is banned on public transport these days. They have CCTV cameras in every nook and cranny flat.

    I am a lawyer. Can I help? My fees are nowhere like Robert Richter's, the great defender of the Catholic faith. just ask uncle George. The Vatican would be just about totally impecunious when he sends his Pell bill. Then again, Jesus saves, the Vatican is simply loaded due to his divine in financial interventions, a bottomless pit. Sorry I used the word bottom in relation to matters Sub Judice, as it were,
  18. What do you mean by that? All USA Presidents have been first and foremost warmongers, and, ironically, it was during the dwarf-brained d grade Hollywood extra called Nancy, I meant Ronald, that the whole of street level, lower class, blue collar USA residents were shoved down the schit hole . It sounds like you believe that's where they belong. The Strumpet promised them heaps, he had/has absolutely no idea about how to deliver the dispossessed from their misery - how the hell can a multi millionaire psychopath ever deliver aid to the downtrodden - so, like I say, what exactly do you mean?
  19. Also, are you aware that the secretary of the Nobel Peace Prize committee that awarded this bulldust award before Obama even said 'I do' at the inauguration sincerely regrets their decision.
  20. Dear Choke. I abhor everything Trump stands for. However, I have absolutely no regard for Obama either. If you can be bothered, please listen to a podcast on Radio National, Conversations, with a the Nigerian/African writer Teju Cole. What he said about Obama is telling.
  21. Sorry to disagree about Mr Speedo. Before he won office he said there were many things he WOULDN'T DO: example, emaciate the ABC, and while I'm struggling to recall the nighmarish goulash of bulldust that came from his vile gob, I know there were other things he reneged on. I recall Kerrie O'Brien nailing him about 'core promises' and things a politician said off the top of his head. I'm so glad he's gone. Trouble is we now have Turnbulldust. I guess it could have been worder, for example Morrison or Dutton or Brandis or Barnaby.

    Chook, he was a centre half forward mainly...
  23. Is that what the USA is doing in using its considerable arsenal of weapons of mass destruction by starting all those wars and then paying its Terrorist proxies to start others? Just a question..
  24. Yes, I can see Richard De Natalie praying to god to save our planet. On the other hand, I can see a lot of preying on the fears of the Australian public, E.G. Children Overboard, Weapons of Mass Destruction - This isn't about Regime Change , said the Lord Johnie - and subsequent fridge stickers about being alert but not alarmed... Then again, those who read Rudolph's Press fell for all of the preying hook line and sinker.
  25. Hasn't been for the want of takers. By the way, that Communist Broadcaster the ABC - even after Turnbulldust and his gang of cut throat fascist butchers has totally emaciated it - is showing Climate Change on Four Corners tonight. Utterly shameless, these Climate Change Warriors!
