If you follow me on twitter…
if you don’t, WHY THE FECK NOT?!
…you may have noticed me and one @Beausaphine of the awesome wasteofheels.com waxing all sorts of philosophical about those damn Newsies.
Newsies is a great Disney movie that once starred Batman, AKA Christian Bale, who is probably really pissed now that he’d didn’t decide to be in the musical version. Newsies basically dance and sing and deliver papers in one giant package of awesome. Also, they’re in knickers the entire time. It’s pretty much team awesome.
Newsies, Knickers, and a whole lotta splits.
One Halloween, I actually dressed up as a Newsie, which basically meant I was a [sexy/skanky] Newsie, since that’s how Halloween works.
CoSi: What are you supposed to be?
L.A.: I’m a Newsie!
CoSi: Aren’t you supposed to be in knickers then?
L.A.: Yeah, but I’m a girl, so I’m a [sexy/skanky] Newsie.
Now is the time to seize the day, etc.
It was kind of disappointing then, that I wasn’t rocking the knickers. I was letting down all the Newsies. I proceeded to hope that knickers would make some kind of comeback, besides on a stage in NYC.
Then, this went down.
Kid in office: Hi, I’m [Kid in office] here for an appointment.
Long silence.
L.A.: …did you bike here?
Kid in office: …how’d you know?
L.A.: my dad does the same thing when he bikes.
Way to go, Dad.
Knickers. They’re baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack.
Carry the banner! (Yes, I not only know the movie but I have the friggin’ soundtrack in my car…right now; along with a multitude of other musicals).
as it should be. MUSICALS FOR ALL. PAPES FOR ALL. NEWSIES FOR ALL.
