I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper

This is possibly the best video I've ever seen in my life.

I hesitate to say more lest I spoil it, so I'll only say that it's a sci-fi themed pop song by Sarah "Ex-Mrs. Lloyd-Webber" Brightman and it really shows why the 1970s were such a great decade.

Okay guys, confession time...I've always wondered about that...you know... "galactic thrill."
I mean, how do you know if you've had one?

I believe to have a "galactic thrill", you must first experience a "close encounter of the third kind". Kinds one and two apparently will not do.

Fair warning though, you might wind up with a serious vector deviation.

I believe that in order to have a "galactic thrill" without a serious "vector deviation" you will need to perform the following operation:
Manual adjust your biosensor to emit a low frequency phase inversion to a insulated plasma tube. Provided of course that you can achive a 10% increase in energy output without overloading the biosensor's circuits. I would suggest using sentient nanobots to fine tune for maximum thrill.

I think you're ignoring the larger and more intriguing question here. What kind of intergalactic mission requires the use of dumbells? Leftover props from Olivia Newton John's "Let's Get Physical"? Or perhaps that good ole' "galactic thrill" just requires superior upper body strength.

I do believe this video would be a fabulous group Halloween costume opportunity....

Oh wait, Leah already said that... well, I agree with Leah. Seriously, my costume idea sucks... let's do this!

Kelly said...

Hmmm, anyone know a place in town that carries silver body stockings?

Lia said...

DIY silver body stocking costumes and dumbbells, baby! You guys should just make them yourselves, then you can post them on that sick website Leah posted years ago that featured full-body bird suits.

Looking at the video again, those may be flashlights and not dumbells. Also, the fourth girl in the line (the one with a side ponytail) is clearly holding a pair of green maracas. So I guess we know that mariachi music survives into the interstellar age.

That website was not sick, it was AWESOME!
