I have noticed everything is getting thinner these days: CD discs and covers, saran wrap, lawn chairs, plastic yard flamingos, newspapers, book pages, eggnog, want ad listings, postage stamps, even the aluminum foil on breakfast pop tarts ('toaster pastries' as Publix now labels the generic store brand) ......nothing is as thick as it use to be. Everything is getting thinner.
In this day of shrinkage and smaller-is-better mind sets, it is comforting to me, that I have been able to maintain my physical space ( and more ) . I have successfully bucked the trend.....I take up more three dimensional space than I ever have in my life. I think it is all part of the law of nature or something I heard about "nature hates a vacuum" (0r maybe it was nature hates the sound of a vacuum cleaner?........I am reaching back to the 60's and some of those facts I snagged along the way are a little fuzzy) Now, if memory serves me correctly, the law goes like this: "If there is less space taken up by something one then something two will ease in and occupy that space which something one gave up......I am pretty sure that is the way it was stated. Anyway, I am doing my part as something two.

I too have a large "universe" if you will. So much so that many smaller items, paperclips, "toaster pastries", toenail clippings, small children, weak minded individuals, and the like are sucked into my vortex and orbit around me.
This I feel is my one true power.
For some unknown reason, as I read this comment, I hear the music from the classic "office space": Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta by Geto Boys playing in my head...and my mind is documenitng the making of an MTV video with valencia moving around the chapel hill's mall and little pop-up signs telling who the people are, the date of filming, and what happened to martha quinn.
...and, for your enjoyment, that's why victor has loaded that song below in the #1 position - with a bullet
Vic what you're thinking of is "Pop up Video" by far the best show ever on Television.
We"wraped" the video you speak of a few days ago, early in the morning after many grueling hours in the hair and make-up trailer. It is currently in editing and will make it's world debut in April 2008.
Pimps Up, Hos down!! Big up to Brooklyn!
