Apologies if this has been posted before, but I was watching the animation of Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns just now and saw this:

Pretty similar, no?

Wow. There was that shooting during the movie showing... maybe it's a reference to that?

Hah. Hadn't thought of that. The image is so similar it can't be a coinkydink.

For what it's worth, the newsreader is mentioning the murder of some nuns.

Well, I had wondered about Yellow Moon having that as an issue in the background. But it's all speculation. Interesting.

My son and I had the flu concurrently like 3 weeks ago, and we watched that show because we needed 4 hours of TV we could both reasonably sit through without murdering each other. I really, really had about .75 seconds of "I NEED TO GRAB THAT IMAGE AND SHOW IT ON RM."

Like all such thoughts, it ended with a fireworkian display of vomiting and diarrhea.

During the movie showing to not that movie?

I absolutely agree. I think it's a bombastic, energetic song and one of many I keep returning to on the album.

The chorus in this song has grown on me. I used to think it was the worst part of the song, being kinda cheesy. But lately I've felt a sense of urgency and ...something else... that I'm really enjoying. This song as a whole has been one of the strongest on LB since the beginning and continues to have legs.
