What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?
We all know "Hey Ya!" and "The Way You Move," but there's SO much good music here. Even the weirder lesser stuff like "Dracula's Wedding" is lots of fun.

Sometimes I boot up Google Street View and go to my late grandfather's house. Years ago, the cameras caught him working on his yard, facing away. Nearest thing to a ghost you can get, I imagine. It makes me wonder what echos we'll all leave behind. What I'll leave behind.

Probably the Deathscythe, because that's the one Duo piloted and I had the biggest crush of Duo. Also scythes are badass weapons for a giant robot.

If you liked THE LONG WALK and are looking for other movies about dystopian America forcing young people to cross a large stretch of land in a lethal test, I highly recommend the 1971 film PUNISHMENT PARK.
