Poem: The Tenth Planet, or an incredible facsimile by Jack Brummet

We recently wrote about what we hoped might be a new shot at a tenth planet (disregarding for now the fact that scientists last year "demoted" Pluto).  A couple years ago, we published a poem by Jack on what was then the current candidate for the Tenth Planet:


The Tenth Planet, or an incredible facsimile
by Jack Brummet


Is it a planet or not?
It depends on
What it's orbiting around.

A planet must orbit a star.
Round objects floating freely
Through space don't count.

If an object orbits a much larger object
That is not a star
Then it's not a planet either.

Scientists are slated to announce
Very soon whether or not that rock
Floating out there is the tenth planet

Or not.
If it isn't
Then what?

Our two favorite letters from George W. Bush

By Pablo Fanque (National Affairs Ed.) and Jack Brummet (Arts and Social Mores ed.)


As you may or may not remember, we (Jack and Pablo) have corresponded periodically with the Presidents (we've only had two since All This Is That started five years ago). Our letters to them ranged from out and out trolls to respectful invitations. One letter we received--that we cannot find!--came from a staffer and basically said "are you crazy? We're not giving this to The President."

But in response to some of our more, shall we say apparently positive and supportive letters?, we did hear back from The Boss himself.

SP No. 48: On fire!

A list of famous Jacks - even includes an All This Is That editor

This is kind of interesting. I can only assume I made the 1039 Jack-FM list because they stumbled on my name in various work capacities on the Internet, and the fact that my name is attached to this blog, and the like 3,700 articles that have been posted here. Anyhow, that's some nice company mostly...

Scene from the goldmine

Jack interviews Senator Jerry Melin, ca 1980

From 1973-1984, I recorded hundreds of hours of material in San Francisco, Seattle, and New York City. The Archives--a collection of cassette tapes, drawings, poetry, and ephemera--containing these recordings has largely disappeared, being lost, borrowed, and rendered unusable by the ravages of time. This recording was salvaged from a crumbling generic cassette tape by a Seattle audio engineer, Ian Rodia. The sound levels vary widely, there is a large amount of ambient noise, including buses and semis passing by. To make matters worse, every few seconds there is a bump sound in the recording caused by a defect in the recorder's mechanism. Jerry Melin died a decade ago, and this is one of the few audio recordings that survived him.

Jack Brummet interviews Senator Jerry Melin, 1980, New York City

Of the literally hundreds of hours of recordings in The Archives, only one cassette tape has survived. That cassette, fortunately, contained numerous recordings of the late, greatly and dearly loved Jerry Melin. This is one of them. Thanks to Ian Rodia, who digitized the crumbling generic cassette tape. As you can hear, the cassette recorder itself generated a "bump" every few seconds, and the tape is filled with the ambient sounds of buses, semis, glasses tinkling, coughs, and mumbling. Nonetheless, it is good to hear Jerry's voice.

YouTube Slideo: Jack Brummet and Jerry Melin discuss Self Love. And Shakespeare.

Every time over the last four and a half years, when I post audio files, the hosting service goes out of business, and the links are dead.

I am going to upload audio files via YouTube this time---making "slideos" of the audio files.

Here is the first. Jack Brummet and Jerry Melin discuss Self Love. And Shakespeare.

This Page Intentionally Left Blank

I've written the poems I had waiting. I don't have the energy to paint. My long backpocket piece on Kent's Bus Depot was already used. Pablo hasn't sent in anything political, and my latest Alien Lore article isn't finished yet. I have nothing to say politically or sociologically. Therefore, let's leave this page more or less blank. . .

I don't even have the will to dig up an old piece and present it under the "Reheated" label.

In a few hours, I am flying back to San Francisco after just returning at midnight Wednesday. I'll attempt to make this right on my return. Blank pages=not good.

We beat The Beach Boys?

By Pablo Fanque,
All This Is That National Affairs Editor

and

Jack Brummet
All This Is That Poetry, Pranks, Paranormal, Pop, Painting, and Persiflage Editor

As you probably don't know, All This Is That is named after a Beach Boys song with the same name. The song itself is about eastern philosophy and meditation. Why did we name this blog All This Is That? Because we liked The Beach Boys, and we liked the way it sounded. And because All This IS That. It really is.

These days on most search engines (especially Google), All This Is That is the first result. We beat the Beach Boys! Jack's wife Keelin looked at us with a jaundiced eye when we told her that. Kind of a "OK. Who cares?" look. And she's probably right. It's narcissistic? Maybe. But it really just feels like a tiny bit of vindication. . .something we don't get a lot of. Just an acknowledgement that maybe four and a half years flogging this blog hasn't gone completely unnoticed...

Craven, 'though we may be, it's kind of cool. A video of the song appears below. . .
