No, no, no, buddy -- Aphex Twin Tamphex would be perfect, naturally. It already samples a Tampax commercial -- "Are you one of those girls for whom time stands still once a month?" Though most adverts want to sooth, not terrorize. Tamphex always struck me as a representation of how a young kid who doesn't understand menstruation might imagine it as something scary and dangerous ... Any of RDJ's tracks that seem to be 'about' anything seem to me to have a child's point of view. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
