saying goodbye
going away
why is goodbye such a hard thing to say?
taking your hand, wondering why
it's time for saying goodbye

saying goodbye
why is it sad?
makes us remember the good times we had
much more to say, foolish to try
it's time for saying goodbye

don't want to leave, 
but we both know
sometimes it's better to go

somehow I know
we'll meet again
not sure quite where, and I don't know just when
you're in my heart, so until then

Saying Goodbye

Saying Goodbye - For my Ethan

Akira (1988) is an undisputed anime classic, that much is true.  But it also pretty much ruined all other anime for us by setting the bar so ridiculously high.  Akira is a pure adrenaline rush, an epic visual feast about armageddon and rebirth that set the bar way too high.  And nothing since (not even Miyazaki) has come close in terms of pure scale, tone and world-building.  It is the perfect blend of sound and image that defies any simple description, and once you see it you cannot unsee it.  Plus, it makes us yell Kaneda! at the top of our lungs every single time. Watch it, then listen to us talk about watching it.  Rinse.  Repeat.

An emotive instrumental featuring audio of the 1990 Muppets memorial for their creator Jim Henson. This is a testament of his work today, as Kermit still lives on. "Take what you have and fly with it"!

My take on The Rainbow Connection Written by Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher. Produced by Jim Henson.

Dedicated to the best friend I've ever had, Cooper.

Do the Muppets even carry the same cultural heft now as in their 70s heyday?  Who cares?  Because there is no movie as pure and joyful and fun as The Muppet Movie, so say us.  Jim Henson and Co. took what was best about their TV show and turned it into a road-comedy with heart, an erstwhile origin story of how the Muppets became THE MUPPETS.  With lots of classic, catchy bangers by Paul Williams thrown in among the (now dated?) cameos by stars you may not even remember if you are younger than 50.  This thing is peak Gen-X, kids. It is also a movie guaranteed to lift your mood - a 90-minute shot of dopamine, serotonin and positivity mainlined into your brainpan by cute and cuddly puppets, all wrapped in a giant, fuzzy warm hug.
