dear rmichael shrieve,

You are the first in my thoughts of what or who should be "time capsuled." My phrasing, obvee. I thought of "the song" today, then went to YouTube and watched the whole 9 minute performance.

Still so good, so raw and rhythmic, so percussiony. Just love it. As I was watching I thought how damn fortunate we are to have this archival footage. Y'all are such babies. You were 20. The youngest performer there. 2 years younger than your boss.

So you and this footage, I feel, should have witness borne to it. Everyone should watch it. Everyone should try to feel what it must have been like to be there. Bearing witness to musical history. Dang, y'all were such babies.

And please dear god, tell me you still have that shirt and your granddaughter wears it when she plays the drums.

Enjoy lovies.
dear body part that I recently realized I've been ignoring,

No, not that one you perverts.

Everyday, apres showeur, I lotion up the bod. I use my favorite moisturizer and mix in some delightful essential oils and everything is wonderful.
Then I realized that I, for some reason, neglect these parts while lotioning.

No, not those you perverts.

SHEESH.

The amazing structural integrity that these parts maintain is altogether astounding.
Attaching to my sternum and my scapula, I daresay you provide this gal with some big time uprightedness. Muscles that attach to you include the trapezius, deltoid, subclavius, pectoralis and the ever sexy sternocleidomastoid. That's right, the SCM. Very sexy.

 You shall be ignored no more. Thank-you clavicles.
