Well.

I had only heard of Klaus Nomi last week on a site run by fern'ers for fern'ers so I dismissed it as poppycock. folderol, gimcrackery, balderdash fiddle-faddle.

I did look and wondered how I missed it, but then wondered why they thought it was relevant. And then I wondered why does that German presenter keep mentioning America? And is he any less ridiculously dressed as Klaus?

Advertisement :-(, long interview, interesting song, good story The other video with no ad just shows the album cover.

Klaus cannot even sit down. And there he is, sitting on the arm of a chair, or perhaps on the guy's knee, speaking in interview as if nothing is strange.

I used to have a blue and white striped shirt with an Eaton collar like the interview is wearing, and I too wore a thin tie with it, except my tie was black. When I put the fake black-rim eyeglass with feathery black eyebrows and false oversize nose that goes over my real nose, and go about, boy, do I ever get the oddest stares. Because it could be real. A guy odd like that really would wear an odd shirt like that. Women would STARE and take WAAAAAY too long to realize they've been put on and crumple themselves laughing while I stand there faking meek bemusement like an innocent silently questioning WTF you staring at?

He couldn't sit on the couch. Funny

Something from the 80's I missed. who is that?

There's many colors in the homo rainbow.

Sadly for Klaus, he caught the aids too early.

So the pilot of the doomed airlines atop the French Alps was not at the cockpit when the plane crashed.

That could mean lots of things... including an innocent thing like the constant need to go.

Cue in one of those incontinence commercial.

Now I'm reading that eclipse picture is a fake.

Too good to check. My bad if it is.

Chip Ahoy said...

OMG, Lem, I just realized by watching the Klaus video you used to replace the Space Station video, where Mike Meyers got his idea for "now is the time on Sprrock't ven ve dance."

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

The copilot locked out the pilot. The copilot purposely crashed the plane?

Joe Biden, America's Putin said...

Everything is fake now. It takes a Potemkin village.

Many years ago I met Klaus Nomi while browsing at a clothing store in NYC.

He was in full regalia.

He flirted with one of my friends.

He came on pretty strong.

He frightened me.

Rush used to play his version of "You Don't Own Me" quite often.

There is a good documentary on Nomi-not sure if it is on Netflix.

He was one of the first to die-1983

Klaus Nomi did some music with Bowie too if I remember.
