"Everywhere you look, and everywhere you look" - Jesse Frederick & John Stamos
Sometimes, in rare instances, it just doesn't fell right to blink. In these seemingly brief moments we see writing, characters, acting, music, set design, lighting, backstory, direction, and fashion become indistinguishable from one another. If we clear our heads just enough, and attempt to analyze one aspect, I think we can once again be happy as a people.
So here is a fashion show I made from the one of the greatest forms of media ever presented to the general public.Some of the highlights from season 1988-89
Sweaters, need not be dull.
This is how to do leather detailing.
Pastels are cool, but don't ignore your solids.
Turtlenecks. In the office on Friday's perhaps.
Don't sell your dreams so soon friends.

The standing ovation; rebirth of the private practice law firm
"I know that I must do whats right -
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti" - David Paich & Jeff Porcaro
Gone are the investment bankers, born are the lawmakers.
So I'm watching Obama addressing congress. He is receiving standing ovations on every 3rd point he makes. A partial standing ovation is made for the first 2 points in every 3 point cycle.
The panning camera sweeps of the room seem to encourage the participation of the audience. I desperately want a standing ovation. maybe you can stand up and applaud after reading this blog post.
I want to become a lawmaker. I want to begin by founding a private law firm. All cases will be settled before they reach court. I have no official legal license to practice. Efficiency is key my friends. Trim the fat. I don't need no god damn judge to tell me right from wrong. I will be the one to make these decisions. KidWisdom and Associates will only take on cases that are morally right. I will help solve real American problems. The flag will be embossed on all my stationary and correspondence leaving my offices. The American flag is not copyrighted. No royalties will be paid. I will wear a judges wig for all client facing meetings. I will have the best and biggest law firm in America. My staff will be more ethnically diverse than any HR department could wish for in a 4 hour brainstorming session. Even if i was wearing a ski-mask and carrying a felt bag with a big dollar sign on it could i not be more professional.
This is America friends

the perpetual motion machine; tour de indie
"Everything You Always Wanted to Know About [Fixies]* (*But Were Afraid to Ask)" - Woody Allen
fixies are the most hektik thing ever invented.
I'm going to build me one. Flat white frame, white tyres, light red handle bars and highlights. My bus pass has become too expensive. i figure if i ride to work one day a week. i can recover the cost of a $1k bike in 200 weeks or 3.85 years. but think of the fun i will have!
I will also grow legs like Bukkake Fashions circa 2004.
here is KidWisdom learning/practicing. Bukkake Fashions is on the unicycle (he makes his first appearance 50sec into this 5min ordeal):
this is the guy who is helping me build it:
yellow wristbands for all.

performance art; the pre-organized group dance
Orchestrated indie group dancing at semi-mainstream nightclubs has been a dream of mine since both Bukkake Fashions and KidWisdom clocked 'white-man-dancing' on expert some months ago. Often whilst sipping on my own recipe cocktail and watching the self-obsessed mess unfold at a favorite purposefully designed dive club/bar, i pray that 4-5 indies will clear a decent section of the dance floor and break into orchestrated, perfectly in sync, dance moves reminiscent of late 80's/early 90's groups such as 'New Kids on the Block' and to a lesser degree 'East-17'.
The exact mind image of what routine I am praying for can be seen in this clip:
New kids on the block - you've got (the right stuff) - 1988
I have reached the point where I am so desperate to see this I feel I will have to take matters into my own hands. So, I am after 4-5 indies. I'm not concerned about gender, however any fems interested need to be aware that they will be playing masculine roles (I don't have a Janet Jackson style dance in mind, so i make no apologies about this). I will also make it known that i did get this idea after watching a Fat Boy Slim hour on a cable music television station. 'Praise You' is a truly magical music video made by one of your indie-idols Spike Jonze, not to be mistaken for Spike Lee.
These guys used a crew of 7, I have plans for 4 and obviously 1 understudy. But trying to get 2 indies working together will be harder than breeding pandas, so getting 4 to work together will need the implementation of some world class management techniques.
We will also need to get a DJ on board. this shouldn't be too hard. everybody seems to know a DJ these days. However, apparently at mainstream clubs/bars you can request songs, this may be the better option.
