SOME FOOL ON A HIGH HORSE
And song and dance soon fill the air. I am ready to listen to some music. Early jazz fills the speakers. The Duke and the Count are taking over the room. It’s such a subtle moment. The bind band sound draws me back to an era before I was born. I can have no memory of it so I can not wax nostalgic. Perhaps, I’ll go Jungian and start chatting up ancestral
archetypes and the sort. I can only yearn for these simpler times. Well everything is related to everything else.

I was thinking about this
I was thinking about this while watching a documentary on Studio 54. It closed in 1980. I was 14 so I obviously never went there. Then I was thinking about That 70s show. I graduated in 1984. I clearly missed high school in the 70s and Studio 54 and yet I sometimes have a sense of nostalgia. Oh, how we like to lie to ourselves about life.
