(Riff Raff) It’s astounding
Time is fleeting
Madness takes it’s toll…

(Magenta) Ahh…

(Riff Raff) But listen closely…

(Magenta) Not for very much longer…

(Riff Raff) I’ve got to keep control.
I remember doing the Time Warp.
Drinking those moments when
The blackness would hit me.

(Riff Raff & Magenta) And the void would be calling.

(Guests) Let’s do the Time Warp again.
Let’s do the Time Warp again.


Day 26 of 365 – Flip or flop?

In electronics, a flipflop or latch is a circuit that has two stable states and can be used to store state information. Aflipflop is a bistable multivibrator. The circuit can be made to change state by signals applied to one or more control inputs and will have one or two outputs.

 


Day 24 of 365 – Rockin’ The Palace Theatre

PENTAX *ist DS (55mm, f/9.5, 1/350 sec, ISO1600)

So whatcha doin’ tonight?
Have you heard that the world’s gone crazy?
Young Americans listen when I say there’s people puttin’ us down
I know they’re sayin’ that we’ve gone lazy
To tell you the truth we’ve all seen better days
Don’t need no fast buck lame duck profits for fun
Quick trick plans, take the money and run
We need long term, slow burn, getting it done
And some straight talking, hard working son of a gun.
Whatcha doin’ tonight, I got faith in our generation
Let’s stick together and futurize our attitudes
I ain’t lookin’ to fight, but I know with determination
We can challenge the schemers who cheat all the rules

Come on take pride, be wise, spottin’ the fools
No more big shots, crackpots bending the rules
A fair shot here for me and for you
Knowing that we can’t lose

And we’ll be rockin’ in Paradise
Rockin’ the Paradise tonight
Rockin’ in Paradise
Rockin’ the Paradise tonight
Tonight, tonight…

Day 15 of 365 – Son of Zorn

This is in the window of the local Fox affiliate on Market St.  I like the comic book lettering look of it.

Zorn, the defender of Zephyria, conqueror of the tribes of Agon, decapitator of the dark herdsmen of Grith, is an overlord of pain from an island in the Pacific Ocean where everyone is animated, but he finds his greatest battle may be the adjustment to the banality of middle class America. Zorn returns to the suburbs of Orange County, Calif., on a mission to reconnect with his estranged ex-wife, Edie, and their son, Alan, but suffers a setback when he finds Edie engaged to another man. He decides to stick around anyway, hoping to forge a relationship with Alan, getting an apartment and a job in sales and trying to funnel his warrior energy into dealing with everyday foes — like the DMV
