Because the World is Round, it Turns Me On
Dang..I wish I knew exactly which words are allowed to be capitalized and which are not. For instance, "me" seems to be a pretty borderline term, as well as "on"..if anyone could specify there...
Okay, I'm going to do a much more typical blog post here because I rarely, if ever, have.
- I went to a movie tonight downtown at the OKC museum of art and could not find a parking place for the life of me. This was strange as there is vast parking on the blocks surrounding the OKCMOA and I normally find one on my first circle. After the movie (Northfork) I looked up on the web to try and find what the heck was going on, as, the theater was more packed out than usual, but not nearly that much. The cause of all my strife tonight was a lecherous duo indeed!
Together at last folks, Carrot Top and Yo Yo Ma. Okay, they were seperate, Carrot Top was at the Myriad and Yo Yo Ma was at the Civic Center..but by their powers combined they were Captain Suck-it tonight. Still, one can dream what an actual combined tour of those two great artists of our times might be like...
I must say that it was extremely awkward to watch the south-side (word that is nicer than hicks) marching towards their destiny of bad comedy while meshing with those in formal wear going to get their Ma on.
As far as I know, no one reported a Swamp Creature sighting at the Carrot Top show.
- Also, on the way down I listened to The Beatles' Abbey Road album. Does anyone else think that the boys were just showing off with the big medleys at the end? I mean, seriously, those 8-9 songs could have easily been expanded into number 1 hits rather than the small glimpses we were given. Were they just laying it down and saying, "Look, we're easily the best band of all time and could have had many more number one hits from this stuff, but..any more would push One into a 2 disc album..and that would just shoot the whole play on words straight to heck, so we're just gonna give you 30 to 90 second clips of genius all in a row and mesh them together in the end. Sound cheeky? good.
Seriously, what the heck?
- And finally, a friend recently pointed out to me how whatever Run, Lola, Run did had essentially been done by the end of Clue: The Movie before it. The undeniable truth of this statement simply makes the pretentious movie snob in me want to cry.
Also, be sure to read Adam's article. It is one of the more incredible things I've read this year. It's the feel good hit of the nuclear winter.
