This is my favorite of the Kate Bush videos, by far. The degree of kookiness displayed here is somewhat reminiscent of Gary Wilson. Laurie Anderson comes to mind as well, but the humorous elements in her videos tend to be more subtle / less apparent.
HIGHLIGHTS:
- Three figures (sometimes four) repeatedly rollerskating in slow-motion toward the camera
- The crude CG figures that pop up to the left and right of her head in sync with that muffled laser sound

The Halloween party was an amazing success! A lot of people showed up, I got to shmooze with some people I hadn't prior shmooze sessions with, and the costumes were BRILLIANT! Doug Windham even "came as meat." These pictures should clear that one up, and describe the evening better than I could in words.

Yay! I'm so excited about Amy's Halloween Costume party tonight! Sooze is up from Gainesville to visit. She's going as an awesome Alice Cooper, I will be Gary Wilson, Amy is going to be a Sonny's BBQ Waitress (Real Pit) and Barrett is a "Christmas Enthusiast." Sweet.
We've got lots of shopping, cleaning, decorating and miscellaneous preparing to do… so I'd better get off this damn machine and get 2 it. There shall be plenty of pictures posted after the fact.
Call me for party details if you'd like to attend.
Werd.

The Gary Wilson glasses are complete. All I could find were glasses that closely resembled the shape of Mr. Wilson's sunglasses, but they weren't white. So I had to pop out the lenses and paint them white. Today I work on the rest of the costume.

Let me see here, what's new…
Well, after a couple conversations on AIM with Gary Wilson, I had to remove his name from my buddy list because I couldn't regulate the frequency that I messaged him with. Hehe… it's tough to say no to a chance to chat it up with Mr. Wilson.

In related news, I'm going to be Gary Wilson for Halloween! I'm forever in debt to Amy for the idea, and I hope I've paid back the favor with my suggestion to her that she be "Lucille, The Sonny's Waitress." So far, we've made some headway in getting our costumes together, but with time running out, we've really got to get our butts into gear.

In related news, I'm wondering today, like I do many days, how someone without any sort of pre-existing probably-sexual fascination with butts, could go to med school, and of all the different branches of medicine to choose from, chooses to be a proctologist. I'm convinced that all proctologists are closeted butt-lovers! I mean, why else wouldn't they study gastroenterology.. or cardiology, or something?
I know if I loved butts just enough, I'd certainly want to get paid big bucks for poking around inside of them every day.

In related news, I've been awake now for 28 hours and am in the midst of delerium… but with too much to get done to just go to sleep. So, I'll be going now.
