People vs. Animals
After all the partying on the weekend, including a rare visit to the inconveniently packed Badlands in honor of Mr. Alterhausen’s arrival, I napped on Sunday, and took a walk along the piers purely sober on to Trader Joe’s. It was beautiful out, warm with a cool breeze. Let’s hope it’s likewise come Pride this weekend.
I like the new Alanis, "Underneath". It’s cheesy, but cheesy in a good way, like "Ironic" or "Hand in My Pocket". We get that you’re talking about a relationship where the heart was at war with your political convictions, Laney, so you have to show yourself inside an actual, beating, human heart as juxtaposed with your bumperstickering, protesting, beanie-sporting self. And the poster at the end that morphs from a peace sign to a love sign said it all for us if we hadn’t already gotten it.
Good job, A. If I were still 16, I would’ve found it most profound and moving. But good job, still.
