In which we 'slam evil' and wonder why spandex is a thing.

As today is usually reserved for thinking about the civil rights movement, I'd like to point out that racism is very very stupid, and that it is the responsibility of us all to ensure that today's children become responsible and caring adults. So everyone just stop being dumb bits of poo (Shit)and practice tolerance and understanding like a human being should. It is ridiculous that this is still a problem in this world. I'm not going to quote Dr. King, as I think it is horribly cliche. There is enough of that going on on facebook today. It just shouldn't be a thing is all I'm saying. It gives me a headache and makes me want to punch walls and cut brake lines*. Kids look up to you and emulate your behavior. If you are stupid, chances are your kids will be too. Be the change, enter the dragon, diversify your investments and slam evil. It should be pointed out that i made a reference to the early 90's movie version of the comic strip: The Phantom starring some dude who was in that thing and Kristy Swanson, whom I believe needs to be in everything still. See, I had a thing about her ever since Buffy The Vampire Slayer during my formative years**.

And while I'm talking about racism and awful movies that studios backed foolishly: Spandex. It is a way to make powerful enemies or lifelong friends. I get it. But that movie looked super lame. Except for the skull ring. that was choice.

It seems I started writing again at the perfect time where it seems like all my friends are dead. Tomorrow marks the 2 year anniversary of Kate Urquhart passing away after a short but awful battle with Cancer. I assure you that it is not me, just unfortunate circumstance. Tonight at the show we will listen to her last comedy set (dubbed 'The Cancer 5') She was undergoing Chemo and was in a lot of pain, so the fact that she made it down the stairs to club Underground was a testament to how badass she was. And how much it meant to her to try and make people laugh with her. She was funny, kind, didn't take any shit from anyone and saw the world as a messed up but wonderful place to be. I miss her everyday and her memory lives on in the show that she considered her favorite. Seriously. The Phantom was a bad movie. What were they thinking?

I want you to know that no matter the reason, no matter your body type, spandex used in public is not allowed. Stay Awesome, Andy * never cut brake lines. I saw it once in a movie and I use it as an empty threat. I should start saying I'm going to tea bag you since I am more prone to do that since you wouldn't die and it would brighten everyone's day. ** I even have a soft spot for 'The Chase' That one had Charlie Sheen and they had sex in a car on a freeway headed to Mexico. That was the way I wanted to lose my virginity. Sex in a car with Kristy Swanson. It ended up being in an apartment in Indianapolis. But if I close my eyes, it is an apartment in Indianapolis with Charlie Sheen telling me I'm doing ok.
