This picture makes me realize that Joel is not cool.

It's the Time Ball Wizard! Look at the tippy top of the pylon. That's our friendly li'l time ball.

TIME BALL!

When you use defunct speakers and belinda carlsisle as your wall decor, you are automatically not cool.

Why did we take this picture, Joel?

Oooh baby do you know that Joel's nah
He'll make heaven out of a time bah...

Is that how the song goes? I think not.

The reason for this picture was to verify and validate our firmly held belief that the time ball contained an essence that was otherworldly and, yes, magical. It is obvious even to the casual observer that we spent more than a few mere moments staging this photo. The cutout shapes taped to the pylon and the genuine appearance of the wand seem to weep plaintively at the suggestion that there is no magic here. The "Coke is it" t-shirt did not belong to me, so there was some amount of wardrobing going on here too. But for the lack of a grey beard, Gandalf might think he was viewing his own likeness reflected in this image.

If any doubts remain as to my being nah-coo' I think these comments dispel them authoritatively.

Mandi, you have a knack for picking up on some highly coincidental phenomena (like the Herreys video and them turning out to be mormon). You will find this highly unlikely, but THOSE WERE IN FACT THE ORIGINAL LYRICS TO THAT SONG! I know this because I wrote that song for her agedness, Madame Carlisle, but she refused to use my lyrics. She changed them to that mumbo jumbo about heaven being worth something and I only got $34 for the tune. How do you do that?

It must be my supreme realization skills.

Gotta say PYLON, can't just say TRAFFIC CONE! (They were cones!) I just REALIZED it was a cone after you mentioned you cut out the shapes and taped them on. I thought it really was a wizard hat! Your nah coo status has become even less discernible to me now.

Does the Coke shirt add to the mystical powers? uh uh
