And I do have a sense of humour by the way. Don't you remember my joke about Einstein's dick? 

ah, i see.  it appears that our definitions of the terms "humour" and "joke" differ.

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! (Isaiah 14:12)

[Lucifer]

i'll see you Isiah, and raise you milton:

?? Lucifer from Heaven
(So call him, brighter once amidst the host
Of Angels than that star the stars among) ??

John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book VII.

or even:

? 'Dark?n?d so, yet shon
Above them all th? Arch Angel: but his face
Deep scars of Thunder had intrencht, and care
Sat on his faded cheek, but under Browes
Of dauntless courage, and considerate Pride ?
?cruel his eye, but cast
Signs of remorse and passion to behold
The fellows of his crime?' (Book I).

He moved gracefully towards Jerome, like a panther, but almost impossibly fast.  Jerome closed his eyes.  He felt hands on his shoulders, and then a mouth lowered to his ear.  ?Milton got it wrong.  Do I look faded??  His breath was hot on Jerome?s shoulder, tasted of spices and slow nights.  Jerome opened his eyes, as the angel pulled away from him.  No, he didn?t look faded.  Not at all.  Lucifer looked into his eyes, and on, through, into his soul."
(The Morality of Angels)

[Beowulf]

I'll raise you Max Romeo:

"Lucifer son of the morning, I?m gonna chase you out of earth!
 I?m gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase Satan out of earth.
 I?m gonna send him to outta space, to find another race."



Jah be praised.

And I apologise for steering this thread off-topic.?

so THAT'S where that Prodigy sample came from!

*blows whistle and rubs vaporub on his gas mask*

[Beowulf]

Duncvis, maybe you can help me with this one.

Have you heard the Prodigy track, Breathe?

There's a gothic-sounding guitar riff in the middle of it.
It sounds like it's either Joy Division or The Cure.

[Lucifer]

which bit in particular?  gimme the time (such a scientist!), cos i can think of several different bits you might mean.

luuuurve that song...

1 min 30. The bit where the breakbeats stop for a few seconds.

I downloaded the track yesterday. I was surprised at how little I enjoyed it.?

But then, I've almost completely lost interest in that sort of decadent crap lately.?

Aren't you a bit old to be listening to The Prodigy?? ?

[duncvis]

Sounds more like a New Order riff to me.

[Lucifer]

Aren't you a bit old to be listening to The Prodigy?   

probably.

aren't you a bit young to be trying to keep up with the grown-ups, then?

:P

and, just for that, you can work it out fer yerself, yer git.

(i'll have a listen later, but if dunc doesn't know, i'm unlikely to, to be honest).
