I am Metroplex!


Possessed of startling versatility and staggering strength, you are the one everyone depends on as a last resort. In battle, you are a mighty instrument of destructive force, unwavering and ever-valiant when you attack. And for when you are not in battle, you are a helpful and observant protector as Autobot City. But despite your enormous amount of power, you are also extremely modest. You often berate yourself for not being able to contribute more to the Autobot cause.

remember Dear Mr. Henshaw by Beverly Cleary? I do. I remember the boy's relationship with his dad. His dad drives a big rig, delivering vegetables. I remember broccoli, and that his dad wrote a little song about how you always see only one lonely shoe on the side of the highway. And there is a butterfly garden.

Jean Cocteau's "Beauty And The Beast"

Tura Satana of Russ Meyer's " Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!"

NIN - Queen's "Get Down Make Love"

FW Murnau -- Muranu was know for creating two of the greatest gothic films and
some of the most pervasive and influential images that defined the early gothic scene.
That is from his films "The Cabinet of Dr. Calgari" and "Nosferatu". The cover of
Bauhaus's "Bela Lugosi Is Dead" is taken from that film. Bands like The Cure show
large chunks of "The Cabinet Of Dr. Calgari" before their shows on not one but two
concert tours. The films are some of the greatest silent films ever. If you have never
seen them, rent them tonight.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20):


I dare you to pump up your receptivity, Gemini. I invite you to stoke your hunger for the perceptions and signals you normally filter out; to tune in to the subtexts and overtones of every situation you find yourself in. It may sound simple, but it'll require high levels of courage and willpower. Here are a few hints that might help: Make curiosity your guiding virtue. Intensify your desire to listen - I mean really listen. Be eager to find out what motivates everyone you encounter. Become wildly surprisable.
