Morning video

Calling Doctor Rotwang! Calling Doctor Rotwang! The 80's is finally coming back! I was gonna post Fall Out Boy's rockin' track "This Ain't a Scene, It's An Arms Race" but I simply had to share this one. Behold the greatness that is the New Young Pony Club's "Ice Cream".

    I was pretty sure the 80s were back when Gwen Stefani did her first solo album and there were times when I did a double-take, not sure if it was Human League or Cyndi Lauper, etc. :)

    Alas, she didn't keep up the 80s love on her 2nd album, but she's still cute so I forgive.

    I used to play Mage: The Ascension.

    Mages each had an Avatar inside them -- their Awakened soul, an ideal being that gave them their ability to change reality, to work magic. Further, they had kind of an idealized Reality -- the way they imagined it would be if Reality were perfect for them.

    I just saw a chunk of my ideal reality in that video, and my Avatar was in it, wearing a blue dress and black tights, playing a synth.

    Thank you, Jeff, for such a beautiful, relentlessly-80s vision.
