Puff the Magic Dragon: Big Ad
http://puffdragon-helen.blogspot.com/2007/06/big-ad.html
Puff the Magic Dragon. Tuesday, 5 June 2007. My god it’s big: big in the sublime unsubtlety of its message, big music, big scenery, big cast, big budget, big impact – this morning, for the first time ever, I found myself belting out a tune in the shower. It's a big ad. Such a big ad. It's just so freak- - -ing big. About the only thing this big ad. Lacks is big hair. Thank you so much. I needed a laugh this morning. And now I think I need a Carlton draught. 5 June 2007 at 04:35. 10 June 2007 at 12:36.

http://puffdragon-helen.blogspot.com/2007/06/go-all-waythe-raspberries.html
Puff the Magic Dragon. Thursday, 14 June 2007. Go All the Way/The Raspberries. Is there any fruit more sublime than the raspberry? I heard this song in a commercial recently. I can't remember what they were selling. Yes, nothing quite as summery as raspberries. 15 June 2007 at 10:25. Eric Carmen's hair-do looks a lot like mine before I brush it in the morning. 16 June 2007 at 08:00. PS Eye'm knot a godo speller. 16 June 2007 at 08:01. 18 June 2007 at 04:36.

Puff the Magic Dragon: Sultans of String
http://puffdragon-helen.blogspot.com/2007/06/sultans-of-string.html
Puff the Magic Dragon. Tuesday, 19 June 2007. The description of their music. Atomic world-jazz-flamenco combining the sounds of Chris McKhool's lush, lyrical Gypsy-jazz violin with Kevin Laliberte's rhythm-fueled flamenco-inspired guitar playing for a wild improvised musical journey. Bassist Drew Birston energizes the groove with adventurous Latin, jazz and folk rhythms. The Sultans of String. Have some free listening at their website. 20 June 2007 at 10:17.

Puff the Magic Dragon: Photograph/Nickleback
http://puffdragon-helen.blogspot.com/2007/06/photographnickleback.html
Puff the Magic Dragon. Monday, 18 June 2007. The first one is of an elephant that no longer has a face. It looks like someone has used a powersaw to cross-section its skull, then taken a baseball bat to whatever was inside. I suppose there’s no neat and tidy way of removing tusks. Of us all together, and wonder sometimes if I should take it down and put it in a box at the back of my closet. Wow Wow and heartbreaking. 20 June 2007 at 10:20. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Puff the Magic Dragon: February 2007
http://puffdragon-helen.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Puff the Magic Dragon. Wednesday, 28 February 2007. Is this love/Bob Marley. Someone wrote “Bob only sounds good to people who would enjoy a phonebook reading accompanied by a metronome.” I guess I am one of THOSE easily excitable people who gets swoonish when listening to a recital of telephone numbers against the backdrop of a steady beat. Tuesday, 27 February 2007. Us to the anomalous din of Boney M and “Russia’s greatest love machine.”. Monday, 26 February 2007. Rod Stewart and Maggie May. Stairway t...

Moon over Bourbon Street/Sting. Wednesday, 28 March 2007. Blue moons are relatively rare; they only occur, well, once in a. Some ...

Puff the Magic Dragon: May 2007
http://puffdragon-helen.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Puff the Magic Dragon. Thursday, 31 May 2007. I remember Friday nights (mis-? Spent with friends making prank phone calls; has *69 rendered such activities obsolete? And where have all the phone booths gone? And whatever happened to E.L.O. and songs like Telephone Line. Tuesday, 29 May 2007. Stand by Your Man/Tammy Wynette. If he’s screwing someone else? I’d like to point out that I’m a firm believer in non-violence. It’s only my writing persona that is slightly psychotic. Friday, 25 May 2007. Classical ...

Puff the Magic Dragon: April 2007
http://puffdragon-helen.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Puff the Magic Dragon. Monday, 30 April 2007. We want the US to say that using the same tone and intonation that the Bond girls would use with James. But the passion has long gone out of this relationship. Maybe it’s because we’re stuck in a perpetual missionary position (and guess who’s always on top? Friday, 27 April 2007. Rainy Day Woman/Bob Dylan. 8221; he yelled at his friend in the truck. Once I went over to ask Gord to turn his music down, and was met at the door by Gilligan’s. A few weeks ago Gor...

Puff the Magic Dragon: Caught in the Middle/A1
http://puffdragon-helen.blogspot.com/2007/06/caught-in-middlea1.html
Puff the Magic Dragon. Friday, 1 June 2007. Caught in the Middle/A1. I was young, and with my parents at the airport. A man emerged from the arrivals area and ran towards the woman who was meeting him. I got caught in the middle. Of their embrace and they didn’t seem to notice me for what felt like a long time. It was my first experience of feeling claustrophobic in a relationship. You can always make me laugh out loud, you brilliant thing. 1 June 2007 at 05:33. You're so funny, Helen. Kind of a Drag.
