We're Buffet-ed to ... 1974. That was easy.  VHM "Come Monday", JB before his shtick became, well, shtick.

and we head to the Tropic of Sir Galahad, whereverthefuck *that* is.

BOS1 Phillippe Petit -- if you haven't seen Man on Wire, the great docu about his stunt, rent it.

BOS2 Todd, who's Godd. And whose dream goes on forever.

lamest. segue. EVAH: Todd's "Dream" --> "Dreamer" by Snoozertramp.

Just last week I saw Man On Wire, about Philippe Petit's high wire act across the Twin Towers.  It's really well made, suspenseful, beautiful.

I don't know if I could watch it.  I get heart palpitations just looking at the photos!

It's funny you should say that -- I'm quite scared of heights and when I saw the trailer for Man on Wire I thought, "no way I'm seeing this", but then it got all these rave reviews and I went and I loved it.

BOS from me - what an amazing production, from the oboe to the phasers - with HM to Todd.
