tryna go fast

 

asking the right questions

 What would it look like if I really tried to be great at coaching?

so I'll remove the cause by not the symptom

I've been thinking a lot about Tim Curry and today I looked up how old he was when he did the film version of Rocky Horror Picture show and he was like 29. 

I was watching 'Sweet Transvestite' and his presence is incredible. For my money, if aliens or dinosaurs or robots came to me and asked, 'what's the point of film?', I would say, "the point of film was to render Tim Curry's performance of Sweet Transvestite in Rocky Horror Picture Show.' We did it. We won.

That's the big problem. We don't say, 'We did it. We won.' enough. Brennan Lee Mulligan has the Oreo CEO video that says it better than I can but so many things have already succeeded to the highest degree that they can. And yet we keep going. We went to the Moon. We filmed Tim Curry. We wrote Shakespeare. We recorded What a Fool Believes. We invented the grapefruit. We won. 

You can't strive when you've already won. You have to do something else?

What's that, you ask?

Oh I don't know how about dwell?

That's right. You had no idea it's another dwell propaganda post. Dwelling will save us. 

this is one of my favorite written pieces of all time

 BALK RULES! IMPORTANT!

1. You can't just be up there and just doin' a balk like that.

1a. A balk is when you

1b. Okay well listen. A balk is when you balk the

1c. Let me start over

1c-a. The pitcher is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, batter, that prohibits the batter from doing, you know, just trying to hit the ball. You can't do that.

1c-b. Once the pitcher is in the stretch, he can't be over here and say to the runner, like, "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna tag you out! You better watch your butt!" and then just be like he didn't even do that.

1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to pitch and then don't pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense?

1c-b(2). You gotta be, throwing motion of the ball, and then, until you just throw it.

1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the ball up here, like this, but then there's the balk you gotta think about.

1c-b(2)-b. Fairuza Balk hasn't been in any movies in forever. I hope she wasn't typecast as that racist lady in American History X.

1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, she was in The Waterboy too! That would be even worse.

1c-b(2)-b(ii). "get in mah bellah" -- Adam Water, "The Waterboy." Haha, classic...

1c-b(3). Okay seriously though. A balk is when the pitcher makes a movement that, as determined by, when you do a move involving the baseball and field of

2. Do not do a balk please.
