Anybody in the audience ever get hit by a car?

Nineteen Eighty-Nine was the best year in music history. And that's it. Bent over the floor of the Little Theatre (now the Hahne Black Box) at school, making the life-size cutout figures for the stage production of Breaking Point, listening to Disintegration, Spike, Oranges & Lemons and Three Feet High & Rising.

And Paul's Boutique hadn't even come out yet.

I considered running without breakfast, which is foolish. This is what I am talking about. It is very hard to lose with without depriving yourself, and I do not wish to do that. That wasn't the goal. Eat better, exercise better, live better. That is all.

Been waiting for this one, and it did not disappoint. Would be better under sunny skies, but I'll take what I can get.

The album is mostly in tact, despite all the copyright business. They cut a sample from Eddie Murphy's first stand up album from "The Magic Number" and "Cool Breeze On the Rocks" was impossible with two dozen samples so they just dumped it. I cut tracks without steady beats from my playlist anyway (see above).
