Jennifer Miro has died of cancer, alone in a room in Bellevue Hospital. Lifelong admirer here, wishing now I would have sent her a bunch of gushing fan letters in thanks for the great pleasure she gave me over the years.

Grant Morrison wrote:This particular song is just so cool, for me it's this is the essence of cool, this song, and it's a really sexy, slow, kind of iconic song. And what it made me feel, it was very much of a time where I was doing The Invisibles comic, which was about a group of sexy terrorists, you know occult terrorists. And this would have been the theme song of The Invisibles. You know I think it says everything about that outlaw glamour, the life lived on the fringes of the law, and on an international scale, and I really love it for that. It's the sexiest song about terrorism that you will ever hear.

Sing |

LYRICS.
Sing it out
Boy, you got to see what tomorrow brings
Sing it out
Girl, you've got to be what tomorrow needs
For every time that they want to count you out
Use your voice every single time you open up your mouth

< chorus >
Sing it for the boys
Sing it for the girls
Every time that you lose it sing it for the world
Sing it from the heart
Sing it till you're nuts
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts
Sing it for the deaf
Sing it for the blind
Sing about everyone that you left behind
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world

Sing it out, boy they're gonna sell what tomorrow means
Sing it out, girl before they gonna kill what tomorrow brings
You've got to make a choice
If the music drowns you out
And raise your voice
Every single time they try and shut your mouth

< chorus >

Cleaned up, corporation progress
Dying in the process
Children that can talk about it,
living on the railways
People moving sideways
Sell it till your last days
Buy yourself a motivation
Generation Nothing,
Nothing but a dead scene
Product of white dream
I am not the singer that you wanted
But a dancer
I refuse to answer
Talk about the passer
Ruling for the ones who want to get away

Keep running!

< chorus >

We've got to see what tomorrow brings
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world
Girl you got to be what tomorrow needs
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world

I

I'll need to finish watching that once I'm done with the panic attack it induced. It's doin' me head in, it is.

Though I now comprehend a little more of One Size Fits All.

Andy de vine
Had a thong rind
It was sublime
But the wrong kind

Oh Andy, I'm sorry your head looks like a potato. I really am.

I must catch up with some of these posts soon. I am sure they are all super!

I was listening to this a moment ago, and it spoke to me, like most things do;

I like to take things one step at a time
One foot in front of the other
I like to think things will all work out fine
And follow along behind those
One act play-things can give you a thrill
Guess it depends on the actor
Dreams can come true, but some things never will
As a matter of fact, those things are driving me crazy
Those things are keeping me sane

I like to take things and make a design
Keep a low profile. Oh and
I like to take things and put them to rhyme
Like those things that are confusing
And the things that seem so clear
And the things that seem so far away
And yet they seem so near
There are some things I have lost
And a few things I have found
Well it's so hard to keep track of things
There's so many around
There's so many around

And there's things we have to look for
And a few we never find
And we all have things in common
You got your thing, I've got mine
And some things they just happen
And some things you can plan
And some of those things you just can't help
But some of them you can
Oh, some of them you can

As a matter of fact, those things
Are driving me crazy
Those things are keeping me sane

Some things turn out all wrong
And some things turn out all right
Some things don't turn out at all
But then again they might
There are things that come too soon
And some things that come too late
It's the best thing to come too early
So you have some time to wait
Oh, have some time to wait

Well it's hard to talk with words
There's some things you just can't say
And it's best to leave some things alone
In case they go away
You can share some things with friends
There's some things we've all been thru'
Well it's things like this and things like that
And how are things with you?
Oh, how do you do?

You can hang things on your wall
You can leave your things around
You can mark some things 2001, and put them in the ground
And maybe later on, they will dig them up some day
And ooh and ahh, and 'how 'bout that?'
Who knows the things they'll say.

ps I just wonder when exactly it will be clobberin' time. I'm getting ready. How about you? I do like a good chuckle, you know. If you didn't laugh about it, you would have to cry;

"When the stars threw down their spears, and watered heaven with their tears etc."

I vaguely remember the phrase "froggy made me" don't know from where, but this must be the source. I suspect it was Kim Deitch's comix in zero zero and elsewhere, and sure enough, that's it! Amazed I remembered Deitch's comix just from the froggy gremlin in that sketch.

OUTCAULT and BUSTER BROWN and KIM DEITCH

So that's Andy Devine (who replaced Smilin' Ed as host of the show)...

As he got older, Andy became more active in politics and social causes, joining the Board of Directors of the Boy Scouts of Orange County and joining the committee to elect Ronald Reagan governor of California.

Andy was born on October 7, 1905. His mother and his one-legged father Tom settled in Kingman, Arizona, where the family ran a local hotel.
Townsfolk remembered a lot of good un's about Andy. Like the time he volunteered to dispose of a cat. Just why this old cat needed to be "disposed of," nobody remembers, but fifty cents was offered to the person who could do it neatly and quickly. So Andy attached a stick of dynamite to the animal. The frightened cat didn't stay put after the fuse was lit and galloped under a neighbor's woodshed. There, the cat, and the woodshed, went sky high.
