Linkage of love:
I haven't yet seen the film version of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, but thankfully
naill_renfro has, and has parodied it for us.
HARRY [teaching Dumbledore's Army]: (Is a good teacher, or at least better than most Hogwarts teachers – of course, the average Hogwarts teacher seems to be Dead, Sadistically Addicted to Seeing Students Fail, Drunk, Possessed by Lord Voldemort, or some combination thereof, so that may not be surprising)
Hee!

HARRY: Oddly enough, yes. And I feel the strangest urge to take off all of our clothes, then cut their eyes out.
LUNA (edging away): O…kay…
Yes, I'm a big Monkees fan - I've been meaning to tell you that I liked your Monkeemen icon for a while. Davy was my favorite when I was (much) younger ('cause he's English and around my height), but Mike became my favorite in more recent years.
My favorite album by them is Pieces, Aquarius, Capricorn, & Jones, and my favorite of their songs is "The Girl that I Knew Somewhere."
It's hard for me to pick a favorite album, but Pisces etc. is a great one. I would put "Headquarters" up high on the list too.
I love Headquarters. My vinyl copy is autographed by Micky, Peter, and Davy, but I've yet to meet Mike...
I also got to meet Micky after a solo show he did, and the cool thing about that was that I had a color photo of him from his Circus Boy days for him:
MICKY: Cool. I haven't seen this one before.
ME: This copy is yours - keep it.
MICKY: Thanks!
When I met Davy (another book signing), I brought in a 60s teen 'zine with Sally Field on the cover, and Davy immediately lit up and said, "Hey, it's Sally!" - they were friends on the Columbia lot back when she was filming The Flying Nun.
Final story: Peter and his friend James Lee Stanley played at a very small folk club in Harvard Square, and at one point Peter had to shout at some college women chatting loudly in the alley near the club to be quiet. Little did they realize they'd been shouted at by a pop culture legend.
How is The Long Sandy Hair of Neftoon Zamora?
I recall Mike's book as being weird but enchanting. It was probably ten years ago that I read it; I figure I'll reread it one of these years and see what I think now.
Thank you,
Alex
