Betty Boop is now a Broadway musical!

Jasmine Amy Rogers stars as Betty Boop, who leaves her vintage toon universe for the modern real world. Okay, so it might be the "Barbie" movie, plot-wise. Who cares. It'll have music David Foster, with lyrics by Susan Birkenhead, both multi-award winners in their fields. Based on a book by award-winning author Bob Martin. It hits the stage next April.

Posted on Quora, not by Meghan's Mole - but Sarah. Hollywierd is no longer playing their game. His new kid is in the same age bracket as their "alleged" first.

What do you ALL think? Anyone notice there are NEVER any car seats in the cars she drives?! In California, it is mandatory!!

@queenofmemes80 brilliantly captured the very tragic cautionary tale that is Meghan Markle

Are you tired of ordinary disasters that don't come with a personal PR twist?

Are you looking for someone to ELEVATE your tragedy into the spotlight of self promotion?

Meghan Markle is here to invade your personal space and turn your heartbreak into (her) headlines

It's not just disaster relief, it's disaster chic

The reason that Sailor Pluto is the Senshi of Time and "daughter of chronos" relates to how the Time Gates came to exist.

The planet Pluto was originally one of the planet-sized moons orbiting around Saturn, and due to Saturn's magical affinity with death and decay (and by extension entropy as time passes) they used Pluto as a site for forging powerful weapons and experimental artifacts. The Silence Glaive was originally forged on Pluto while it orbited around Saturn.

The Time Gates were created as an accident when the mage-scientists were attempting to create something else, and everyone was iffy about having something that dangerous in the middle of the Solar System but didn't have a way to safely destroy it, either. The Queen before Queen Serenity used the Ginzuisho to put Pluto in orbit at the far edge of the Solar System so that the Time Gates destabilizing wouldn't have horrible casualties, and set Sailor Pluto to guard the gates against time travel abuse with a few guards in Charon Castle. Pluto was never formally inhabited any more than Antartica or the international Space station is today, though.

Pluto's remnant connection to Saturn and their shared affinity for death, decay, entropy and senescence (old age) are why their magic and myths seem to overlap. Pluto's Dead Scream spell is technically watered-down Silence magic, for instance.

Reason in Motion

Let's be honest, Kiss have only rarely tried to hide their musical influences, no matter in what dimension they have made themselves felt in their own work. On Crazy Nights (1987) they even seem to have reached their personal high point on several occasions, making no secret of it at all, similar to a beloved cat that you regularly find in your living room aquarium.

I hope it should slowly dawn on the last of us that today we are taking another look at, drum roll… Reason to Live.

If Paul is to be believed, Desmond Child is responsible for the lion's share of Reason to Live, and therefore presumably also for the increased hunting frequency in foreign territories. So if that's where his heart has led him, fine by me, if you know what I mean. But you never really know with these two anyway, so why don't we do Paul the favor and just play through the whole thing with Desmond for a change.

And it would certainly be a good idea to briefly recall two of the probably biggest hits of the 80s, which Desmond must have simply soaked up while composing today's somewhat chilly tearjerker. Anyone who therefore would like to find out more about Foreigner's I Want to Know What Love Is (1984) and Heart's Alone (1987) and the extent to which Reason to Live and Desmond Child are up to their necks in this matter would be well advised to click on the last two links.

For today's interests, however, all we need to do is take a look at the chorus hook and its melody, which somehow manages to remind me every time anew of 80s movies in a not exactly subtle way.

Names like Ally Sheedy, Emilio Estevez or Rob Lowe inevitably come to mind, which brings us to the chorus hook of St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion) (1985), the title hit song from the coming of age yuppie drama of the same name, which is probably familiar to pretty much everyone who was old enough to consume or at least be aware of popular culture in that decade. Needless to say, said song could be found in at least high to top chart positions worldwide at that time, and that I love to imagine Desmond Child at the piano in the midst of this setting.

And even if St. Elmo's Fire's Hook comes across a whole lot more enthusiastic and upbeat than the rather melodramatic to depressed Reason to Live, which barely emerges from its Prozac cloud, this hardly changes the fact that both short but all the more catchy melodies are pretty much one and the same.

Moreover I don't understand the lyrical conclusion at all, this But it can't Be Your Looove-thing. Gee Desmond (or a bit Paul for my sake), love is of course the reason why we and all life lives at all!

No wonder this was not the big hit it was constructed to be.

While I had a reason to highlight these links, it's not my love:

Reason to Live (1987)

St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion) (1985)

I've listened to this like 14 times today, so I may as well plague you all with it too.

Fortunately it's Chaka Khan, so it's basically the greatest thing ever made by humans.

(Yes, this is the one Kanye sampled for "Through the Wire".)

You either die young, or live long enough to realize that David Foster ballads being Top Ten pop hits made us better as a people.
