I never meant to cause you any trouble...

Jesus, it happened AGAIN!  2nd week in a row, someone passed out at spin class.  Same teacher too.  I'm going to refer to her only as The Black Widow now.  This time, the victim tried to stand up off her bike, but the teacher saw it happening and stopped her.  Crazy.

Writing early today due to scheduling, so not much of a reflection on the day.  I will say this, however.  Did you know that Wendy & Lisa, formerly of The Revolution, score the soundtrack for Heroes the TV show?

The lesson here is there is a world of shit out there for you to be doing.  It may be out of the limelight, it may not be something that is known to others or exactly what you envisioned when you set out to make your mark in this world.  However, there seems to always be ways for you to accomplish your goals and fulfill your passions if you look hard enough and are talented.

Be so good that they can't say no.  That is not mine, that is Nietzsche.

MotD: Purple Rain
Prince lives in his own world, certainly a violet tinted one, and we're just occassionally allowed to glimpse it.  The closest I ever came to seeing this movie was when it first came out on VHS and Beta, I include Beta because it was at my friends house, Bobby and Brian Powell, and their dad owned a Beta only video store.  It was on during one of their birthday parties, I was real young, but I remember all the older kids being just geeked about watching Purple Rain.  I'm glad that I didn't see this at that time.  Why?  Because it's fucking awesome and it would have resulted in me wearing frilly shirts, purple heels and wanting to drive a big purple batcycle.  Seriously, I think they repainted one of the old Batman Batgirl Motorcycles for his ride in this movie.  Horrible acting, but magnetic musical performances and Morris Day is a P.I.M.P.




You be the judge.

  1. Well we know Prince likes Batman--who can forget the fab soundtrack for 1989's Batman and the Batdance!
