Sanity For Today

This dovetails into my post on excitement. You need to be sane. Yesterday, tomorrow, and today.We all work. Well, most of us at least. <rant>There are the folks that are too busy protesting about the 1%. Whatever, dudes. Whining won't move the 1% down or you up to the 1%.</rant>The line comes from a movie: Shock Treatment. You can argue if it's a good or bad movie until you're blue in the face. If you think it sucks, wait a bit and watch it again, you might like it eventually.  :-PLike I was saying, we all work. We work for a number of reasons, one of the biggest is money obviously. But it has to be a fair trade. Trading one's sanity for cash isn't a way to win.We do it for money. For friendship. For the challenge of solving problems. For camaraderie. For creativity. For satisfaction.We don't do it to go mad.Here's some of the lyrics to the last song in the movie, "Anyhow Anyhow:"

Some people do it for compassionSome people do it for the fashionSome people do it to be funnySome people do it for the moneySome people do it for enslavementSome people do it on the pavement...But ChorusWe're going to do it anyhow, anyhow (x6 + an extra line)We just gotta keep going Some people do it for each otherSome people do it for their loverSome people do it for improvementSome people do it for the movementSome people do it for enjoymentSome people do it for employment

This is just what I was describing up top... That Richard O'Brien fellow is brilliant![youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6bRP4YY0MY](Hey there Kimmy! /me waves.)This is from a convention last year. If you know the Rocky Horror crowd you know about acting out the movie. Full disclosure: I did this for quite a while myself.Somehow, in some strange way, I think I really get the movie now.
