Talladega Nights is silly, but it metarecognizes itself as such. The film will take an absurd moment, neither the most nor the least absurd, and address the implausibility in such a way that the realism is kept constant. It also has the effect, like in “Cars”, of belonging to a red state subgenre

Taco Party: it’s like a Lasagna Party, but with tacos instead of lasagna. If you're reading this and in town, stop by (6617 Wash Ave. Apt 2N) sometime tonight.

“Say the word forevermore...”

I am perfectly entitled to a silly teenage crush.
No matter what.

“...So let it be what it'll be...”

Not too late.

They say a new millennium arrives.
We’re still awaiting only ninety-nine.
We’re the children of a decade and we know the future’s coming on fast.
We’re the children of the future and we know it cannot be held back.
We’re the children of an era whose innocence has already passed.
Hold out my wrist / twist back my blade / can’t take away / and *snap*.
There’re fifty things that you can do and I know every one,
So choose your own adventure and the color of your blood.
It’s crystal clear: I’m falling back in love.

The secrets of our universe expand beyond margin.
We don’t need babysitters but we’re home alone again.
Symbol to count / we go to ten / it’s not that late an hour.
We don’t remember where we were, somewhere beneath a tower.
The wall’s been down for oh so long; how can we be apart?
The map just keeps on changing the colors of the chart.
It’s crystal clear: I’m bleeding out the color of your heart.

We’re drawing to a full house and- cowabunga!- four of a kind.
We know some guy’ll fix everything with lots of stuff in little time.
They say that cloning’s science-fiction’s game.
They say that things will never be the same.
We’ve closed our eyes and opened up and entered in nirvana.
The mountainside / to see the sign / we all live prima donna.
They say the past is ever running long.
They say Perot is ever running strong.
It’s crystal clear: we can all get along.

The mouse tail’s growing bigger: a whole new world to flick.
We once practiced the keyboard, but now things simply *click*.
They say a new window’s opening soon.
They say a clear horizon’s shining through.
I stare into your eyes and enter the dimension third.
City rebuilt / within red wall / a chase around the world.
They say that things once left cannot come back.
They say we’ll never need what’s never lacked.
I’m living life right here right now.
It’s crystal clear: and how.

I need just one more chance to find the past I lost amid the mist.
They say nostalgia brings forth pain; instead it brings me only bliss.
Where were you when my youth was sown?
Where were you not that long ago?
I long to taste you on my lips.
I long to relive that first kiss.
It’s crystal clear just what I miss.
It’s crystal clear just what to do
To have another chance with you.
So tell me once and evermore
Why nothing else has gone before.
It’s crystal clear.

Not yet time.

“Been spending most our lives...”
I am going to live in NYC.

But probably for only a year. As invigorating as the overwhelming assortment of compacted variety of activity of a sprawling city requiring nothing but one’s feet is, it has 2 faults: it is expensive and rude. Which is not a criticism of New Yorkers, but rather an objective statement of New York.

Spotting the Wordplay: as much about the city as the puzzle.
“...What can I say? / [] / The way things is going I don't know...”

It’s has Sandra Bullock and The Guy Who Played the President in Independence Day.
That’s really who he is.
It is.
When he dies, his tombstone will say, “Here lies The Guy Who Played the President in Independence Day.”.

“When set loose I fly away...”
In NYC until Monday.

“…Never so cursed as when I go astray...”
Let me know if we might be able to get together.

“...What am I?”
---> Wrong. Guess again.

To be a good liar one has to be able to do 2 things:
Convince someone that what is false is actually true.
Convince someone that what is true is actually false.

When in doubt, lie.

If that doesn’t work, blame it on someone else. Or flee the country. Or blame it on someone fleeing the country.

“To share forever the unrest...”

Lying is contagious. Lie to sometone and they must either lie to you or to the world.
The cure, however, is worse than the disease.

“...I don't want to fight / I'm tired...”

Non-Euclidean Juggling
More and more come back around.

"Want to buy a duck?"
"A what?"
"A duck."
"A duck?"
"A duck."
"Does it quack?"
"Of course it quacks- it's a duck!"

Everybody Comes to Schnucks.

“Once per life you can play fire, which beats everything.”
What? How does fire beat rock? And scissors?
“Lava. And shut up.”

Hail, rain, sparks, wind, tree, lightning, missive, midnight:
Earth, water, fire, air, wood, storm, rhyme, time.
Some days all the elementals get to play.

“Then there’s water, which beats only fire, but you can play it as many times as you want.”
What? That makes no sense. Shouldn’t water rust scissors? And destroy paper? And erode rock? It’s backwards...
“I’m going to kick you if you don’t shut up.”
Can I use my once per life fire against your kick?
<kick>

Simmertom Separon.
Cat, drawn to find a mate,
Versed well in reversal.
(Why? Don’t you know?)

While desir’d explaining
Gets skipped, what’s remaining
Cartomantically
For her? Uno?

Not in the cards.

"Will you take your place with me?"

Les Miserables at 8pm tonight at the Fox Theatre. Anyone interested, cell or e-mail me ASAP and I can probably still get you a $10 off ticket, if not a ride too.

"The time is now, the day is here..."

In the Cards. 11-2.

“And really, what has Thailand ever done for us, anyhow?”

Anna and the Loop Eatery Circumnavigation.
