Walt Whitman?

The album is good:

Get French.

Thank  Glen for this gem.

I think everyone should learn this and begin busting it loose in public spaces. The potential locations and applications for it are amazing: parties, events, museums, wallstreet, wallmarts, the list goes on…..

Think of it like this:  With enough people learning this dance we could start random outbreaks of dancing in the streets.  Allow me to present a 7 part proposal as to why this is awesome:

1. It’s fun to dance

2. You don’t have to worry about looking like a fool because everybody is doing the same silly dance.

3. Imagine the random people watching who wouldn’t yet be in on it, their minds? – - blown.

4.It could easily turn into a party.

5. It genuinely creates that moment in musicals where everybody suddenly seems to know the words and steps and harmonies to a city wide dance.

6. It is the antithesis of politics.

7. Synthesized synchronicity. (I’d imagine for most adults this is much easier to catch on to than true synchronicity.)

This could be anything to everyone. This could be a street performance to midwestern city tourists. This could be performance art to the aesthetically selective.This could be attention K-Mart shoppers entertainment. This could be afternoon cardio to a bored housewife. This could be the good shake everyone needs now and then to just get happy.

I’ll tell you what this definitely is : It’s a group of people coming together as heroes for five minutes then disappearing just as quickly as it all started.

Efterklang is on tour soon. They have a new album. You should see them. This is video from their live shows.

This seems kinda related to a current event… except that I still like Dock Ellis.

If theres gonna be drugs in baseball at least post their blood stream recipes up with their averages. I propose some forward thinking here, a new system if I may:

Spin a big wheel at the beginning of the game with a long list of illicit hallucinogens, narcotics, stimulants, barbituates, you name it, its on that wheel. Each team gets two spins and takes whatever their spins land on.

Imagine: the Cardinals on Cocaine and Booze vs. the Yankees on a cocktail of Meth and adrenochrome. Now this would take the MLB to a whole new level. We could call it the XMLB.

I can relate.
