I Got The Kodak, I Need A Katey
Behold the Brownie Target Six-20 in all its Art Deco glory. I have this as a prop to be used in the music video for "Katey And Her Kodak." It will be playing the part of the Kodak.
But who will be Katey? A severe girl who is shunned by others due to her quirks of habit. Her quirks include licking developing fluid from her fingers. Hot
and disgusting! I'm thinking Lydia Deetz.
There are a couple of crowd scenes, to be shot in a park on a nice day (are there any left?). Apart from that it's Katey walking around and working in a dark room. And then there's Katey's love interest (probably me). I think we run around in one of ridiculous romantic comedy montages (haven't sorted this part out yet).
So let me take this moment to get all excited about this project so that I can drop it like all others.
There we go.

X---- Will Be My Hit SingleI've never written a song with a title that begins with the letter X. Perhaps that is all that stands between me and rock 'n roll immortality.

I should point out that nearly half of the T songs are filed under T because they begin with "The."

Do Not Switch On The Large Hadron Collider: A Plea From The FutureMy name is Anthony Gibbons. I am writing this message in June of 2026. There is no such thing as time travel, but I am entrusting this letter to Western Union, who will hold my letter until such time that it can be transferred into the past. I hope the technology becomes available (if so, I am certain this message will be received in time).
First off, let me dispel some fears. The Universe survived. No black hole was opened, and there was not a total protonic reversal. In fact, many great scientific breakthroughs came as a result. We now have recordable quantum holographic discs, which allow you to keep updated multiple copies of data, plus make new copies simply by breaking off a piece of the disc. They are perfect for copying music. Oh, and we have those lightsabers from Star Wars, but they don't do any damage. Cool lighting for night clubs, though.
Medical science has also benefited. They say the average lifespan is now increased by 30 years, but there's not enough data to verify that. We do, however, have a lot of old people. Which is great, because I'm in my mid-sixties now and I like to think that I'll have plenty of friends for another few decades.
But let me get to my point: all of these discoveries were side effects. Everything we have now is due to the research that went into building the collider, but not from switching it on. Geneva scientists: everything is in your notes. Please review them and make cool stuff.
Turning the collider on only accomplished one thing: the color red was damaged. Everything else in the universe seems to be fine, but there's a part of the visible light spectrum that was just blasted out of existence. Nobody really noticed at first. They just thought their clothes had faded, or the TV was messed up. But I noticed. I've been telling people for years that red was... redder. But I can't, because nobody seemed to notice. They are so used to strawberries being... red-like... that they have no conception of true redness.
"Look at green," I say to them. "You see how green green is? It's so green. Now think about red being as red as green is green." They just nod condescendingly.
So please, I beg of you: do NOT switch on the Large Hadron Collider. The universe will be deprived of a basic color. I know you may think I'm crazy, or even that if this is true you won't mind that much. But you can't grasp it until it happens, but by then it's too late. Please, do your science, but don't flip the switch.
Thank you,
Anthony Gibbons
P.S. Oh, I think that really dark navy blue is gone too, but I could never really see it anyway.
