    Potato Dancer

    Something amusing for 6:06am. I took this earlier (technically yesterday afternoon - and no I haven't gone to bed yet) - my roommate had some potatoes she had forgotten about. The image then caused me to massacre classic songs with lyrics such as, "Hold me closer potato dancer..." and "I'm your potato dancer, a dancer for money..."

    I wish I had gotten a little more DOF, but sadly the potatoes have gone on to that great trashcan in the sky.

    Damnnit.

    I spent all day trying to think of a clever song to make into a "potato" hit too.

    Oh, well...

    -dejected-

    I will say that this kind of reminds me of the movie Alien when the little monster jumps out of the guy's chest - blach! - yours is much cuter though

    I like your lighting! It almost looks transparent!

    Thanks guys!

    That's what I love about this place - I can post an image like this and nobody thinks I'm crazy. Well maybe you think I'm crazy, but you're nice to me anyway.

    Rick - be grateful you didn't come up with anything. I've had the stupid potato songs stuck in my head since yesterday.

    Ha!

    you failed to mention what his main form of self expression is....ballet,jazz,interpretive, Irish folk dancing?

    Here's a poem in the absence of Rick's song...

    There once was chick named Mig...
    Posting odd pictures---her gig.
    She posted a tuber
    I thought--- what a goober...

    I wish I had thought of it first....



    that's the best I could do....enjoy...;)

    I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time.
    I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important.
    I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live."

    Re: Potato Dancer

    OK, didja all know that Devo has a song called "I'm a Potato"?


    I now know this, thanks to the miracle of Google.

    Kelly,

    I was also going to google "potato songs" but decided that I should stop the madness.

    Just know you are not alone.
