"It's just the way you talk, like it ain't nothing -- and every single day is just a fling..." They voted for the entertainer. AGAIN. (see also: Ronald Reagan) It's just the way that they are.

	\| \|\| ~~Long Dark Night~~ (~~Fabulous Knobs~~)		\| 15 \|\| Prophecies \|\| Philip Glass \|\| [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAdmYO_VKOU YouTube] \|\| Translation of Hopi lyrics: "If we dig precious things from the land, we will invite disaster. Near the Day of Purification, there will be cobwebs spun back and forth in the sky. A container of ashes might one day be thrown from the sky, which could burn the land and boil the oceans." (see {{l/wp\|Koyaanisqatsi\|Wikipedia}}) All is koyaanisqatsi. <small>I chose this unofficial upload instead of the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zjyqg97lj3w official one] because it was the only one I could find with the longer/full version from the movie, which is much superior to the one on the LP.</small>
