"This is not a time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time. This is what Joe Strummer trained you for.
GOODNESS IS VIRAL."
Henry Rollins, 2016

Just returned home from a gloriously expensive, 6-day, 5-night staycation at my local cardiac hospital to a brand new F*king reality:

"You are my sun, my moon, my starlit sky, without you, dwell in darkness." - Val Kilmer as Madmartigan in Ron Howard's WILLOW (1988)-[shown with ex-wife Joanne Whaley as Sorsha]

"Self-realization. I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said, "... I drank what?""
- Val Kilmer as Christ Knight in Marth Coolidge's 1985 classic REAL GENIUS

"Say goodbye to me. Go grab that spirited actress and make her your own. Take that beauty from it, don't look back. Live every second. Live right on to the end. Live Wyatt. Live for me." - Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday in TOMBSTONE (1995)

"For me the sun rises and sets with her, man."
Val Kilmer as Chris Shiherlis in Michael Mann's HEAT (1995)

"Death makes angels of us all and give us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws..." - Jim Morrison
Rest Easy, Val.
Thank you for the magical journeys you led us through.
You will be missed. 💔

I'm not the only one who's gotten this and thought of that moment in GARP, right?

Oh no...

Got mine updated last July 4th when I took the side of my pinky off with a mandolin.
Seriously y'all Washington folx (and e'ryone else), ya gotta git yer Dip-Tet!

Or put another way...

Memes the Lil'One sends me...

"The feeling is definitely there. It's a new morning in America: fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders... It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits. We must look to the strength of our nation, our ideals, a vision."

Happy Birthday Queen
