Napalm Beth speaks

It came to me today that at last Stoot has created  the perfect meeting place for great minds.
In the game there is an electrical attraction.  We who gather here share a like mind.
Finally through the miracle of science and chemistry and physical attraction we have our own
Idaho....thank you to the powers that BE.

  • Dear Beth,
    Your mind is expanding at the speed of light. Please lay off the purple haze and let some of us stragglers catch up.

    XOXO,
    P.T.

  • I frankly would prefer to find that I could have a pet rock lobster next to my love shack on Planet Claire vice just hanging out in my own private Idaho... ;)  But I digress...

  • The B52s song predates the film by over a decade, perhaps napabeth could clarify which one the reference was to? :)

  • @Violet- You are probably right on the song being the reference she was going for. It definitely seems more fitting!
    I was just following up on the Van Sant angle from Jackie Paper up there.

  • Lol @ JW - I guess we'll find out later...I honestly don't know which they were going for...I'd never heard of the film, by the way.

  • I agree, it's rare to see such an intelligent, friendly, polite population in an online game, especially a free one. In my experience, most FOGs are populated primarily by assholes and people who have trouble with higher-order thinking.

  • I was thinking of the film which I haven't seen but I recall the expression, "my own private Idaho.:
    Their spuds are stupendous...lots of dark, rich, loose alluvial   soil... ideal for potato cultivation...

  • I've never seen the movie either but the only other Idaho reference I can think of (besides sumptious future tater tots) is Duncan Idaho of Dune.
    It's all groovy gravy.
    :o)

  • If you all haven't heard the B52s song you have to look it up - it's brilliant!

  • Love Shack rocks!!

  • :) all the songs do - if you are in a wacky mood!

    EDIT : actually I really think the album Wild Planet, which has Private Idaho, Devil's in My Car, etc, is the best! Their older stuff was wackier :)
