Inspiration, Move Me Brightly…
December 21st, 2005
I doubt anyone would have gotten the Grateful Dead reference in the title of this post, any more than they will remember anything about “Saturday Night Fever.” Okay, I don’t remember the movie myself, but the one image that I could never forget is the perfectly deliciously cheezy image of John Travolta and all his mighty disco-ness! In my opinion, there wasn’t a better inspiraion for the cheezy Dance Contest Host in, “Yaki and Yumi”…..boy you will be happy to see what Yaki so graciously gives Mr. Judgey-poo at the end of the show! Well..you’ll just have to watch to find out!
Oh..and $2.63 from Yaki himself if you can name the Dead song.

Aliki, keep in mind that the white clothes ecause there isnt any outline around them, could be difficult to see at times depending on the background.

Thank you Stephen for your concern…the good thing, is that the same person who colored him, also colored the BG, so he definately took that into consideration. The Judge is always in the area near the dance floor..you can look at the earlier BG post to see how this will work.

I remember that movie!! I loved that movie! The disco styles inspired my (rural Iowa)prom dress purchase my junior year.
I think I remember most of my prom…

As the Bee Gee’s sing; “You should be dancin’…yeah!”
Wow, this brings me back to the discos of NJ and NY in 1978 and 79!
But I didn’t have a white suit. Mine was black and I did have the shoes too!
I still love the movie and Bee Gee’s still cruise with me. (and not in a 78 Trans Am)
Aliki; this is so cool!
Can’t wait to see it!
Have a great holiday!

Interesting that you would choose this, the opening line of Terrapin- (after lady with a fan,) as “‘The Princeton Encyclopedia of Poetry and Poetics’ states: “At least as early as Homer, inspiration holds a central place in Greek poetics, both as invocation to the gods, or, more often, the Muses for the gift of memorable speech, and also as claim that when the god does take possession, the poet enters a state of transcendant ecstasy or frenzy, a ‘poetic madness’ or furor poeticus. Throughout most of archaic Greek thought, the creation of art is associated with ritual, religion, and substance-induced ecstasis.”"
