Awesomely Awful 80s Karate Rap


Prepare your mind for awesomeness.
The internet has offered many humorous gems over the years that have enriched my life and made me grateful to have wifi.

But this video...this TOTALLY 80s VIDEO...takes the cake and adds twelve layers, chocolate filling, and neon florets with sparkler centers.

From Samurai Studios, Inc., the group that brought you nothing you've ever seen before, this four-and-a-half-minute anthem brings us everything we loved about the 80s: big hair, electric hot pants with blouses and high heels, synthesized background instruments, rockers in headbands, cheesy green-screen action, aerobic routines masquerading as choreography.

And did I mention the song is about karate?

And performed by a Caucasian married couple?

And features a rapping parakeet?

And begins with the spoken words, "Relax and breathe"?

Oh, yes. It totally does.

I should also thank David Seeger and Holly Whitstock Seeger for conceiving and birthing this eighth wonder of the world. And I must thank my brother David for constantly filling my coffers with ill-conceived, hilariously executed music videos.

You may thank me in the comments.




You're welcome.

Dear Rejected Manuscript...

Image
Image courtesy of mack2happy / FreeDigitalPhotos.net Hey. I haven’t been avoiding you. Really. It’s been a busy time for me. What, with the start of spring, my new blog, and all that. Oh, sorry. Let me introduce you.  Book, this is Blog, the place I created in your honor. Blog, this is Book, the manuscript I've been telling you about. I'm thinking you two can help each other. Anyway, you seem well. Pages properly numbered, double-spaced as always. I noticed a few typos in my recent read-through, but those aren’t important right now. You know, Book, over the years we both have changed: shifted focus, gained and lost weight, added and deleted characters from our lives, even changed our names. And by now, you should know how much I admire and believe in you. I know greatness lies within you, longing to be unleashed. With that in mind, we need to discuss the editor’s recommendations. Namely, what I plan to do with them.

Book Review: "Me and Mom Fall for Spencer" by Diane Munier

Image
When recently asked what she thinks of the [ Twilight fanfiction] world, author Diane Munier said, “What [ Twilight author] SM achieved in my opinion was the ability to make women feel first love….That woman took us into the ache.” I hope Ms. Munier will pardon me for appropriating her words, but that statement perfectly encapsulates the magic of her own writing: this woman takes us into ourselves, moving us with a deeply satisfying story in the process. Through the eyes of her beautifully flawed characters, Munier takes us to the bottom of our souls, revealing everything we are and everything we wish we weren’t. We confront our pasts, unearthing treasures we never knew were there, and baby-step our way toward a future we didn’t know we could have. Munier has been doing it for years under the apt pseudonym “Counselor” in the Twilight fanfiction world, and she does it this time for the masses with her first fanfic-turned-novel, Me and Mom Fall for Spencer.
