Well, I’m a huge fan of amazing minds of today like Neil Tyson.

I think he has definitely made something as difficult and “unfun” as physics, astrophysics and theories, into a really attainable and enjoyable experience.

It’s a big deal to me that we can have astrophysicists who are celebrities. Who have a great fan base and get a wider audience. A YOUNG audience as well.

I think they’re inspired to learn. To know that learning is fun.
This is the way that kids…hell.. ALL people should be educated. In a great learning environment. Presented with ideas and open to ask questions.

Sometimes I trick people on Twitter into talking about string theory.
Sometimes I’ve just asked them straight out to discuss it. That it has gotten a good response, a positive response, is really fantastic.
I think kids and again… ADULTS, need to know that all the information is out there. If the want to learn it on their own.
I don’t know enough about particle physics, but I’m trying.
When I know enough, I’d love to teach others…
That’s just good fucking business for everyone.

Yes, I’m a lunatic, past the stages of getting help.
Yet, I say here that I have self help books, only, the pages have been taken out.
“On stages” saying that I do this publicly.
The illusion of “yes, yes… I’m taking steps to help myself."
Also, "in stages” “On stages.” Meh… you get it.

I call it “electric chair music” because I think of it as the kind of music that you want as the last thing you hear.

Incidentally, also the name of the next album.
“Electric Chair Music”

We laughed entirely too much at Khrysis' ad lib on this.
He’s hilarious and we got a chance to really play around on this album. Skits and all.

By the way, This song is actually from the unreleased “Phoenix” album, coming later this year (2012)

“Scrumtrulescent” was a word made up by Will Ferrell while playing James Lipton in a SNL bit.
Hilarious.

Playing around with the excuse that some people use when they cheat of “it just happened!"
Which, of course, is ridiculous.
No, man. I think we’re all responsible for our actions.

So a sarcastic “I didn’t mean to be this good, it just happened” is pretty funny…to me…

Whatever

In the fetal position would be a really unfortunate time for a dude to pee on himself. Really, really unfortunate.

Sometimes just going into record stores and seeing my vinyl or cd on the rack, really made it all worth it.
Doing in-stores… all of that.

Most notably in this song, I was remembering the countless times I hung out at Fat Beats NYC.
Much love to the love they showed me over the years.
Fat Beats, we miss you.
