I don’t feel old. I feel the exact same age I was when my mom Punk’d me and told me that the love of my then 10 year old life had agreed to be my valentine.

Yes. Thats a true story. She thought I wouldn’t be stupid enough to fall for it. I showed her.

Ahem.

But my point is I don’t feel old. But I am old. i realized this in a very silly silly way. There is a popular song out right now by a group called Cherish called “Do it, To it”. In the bridge of the song they say something about grabbing the kryptonite. before they go and party.

I was confused by this line.

I was wondering to myself, “Why are they trying to weaken Superman? They’re an R & B group and they want to battle the man of steel. That doesn’t seem to make sense. And Superman isn’t even real. Why are they trying to fight him?”

Then I had a more realistic thought.

When I was a bike messenger we used have these bike locks that were virtually unstoppable. They were called it Kryptonite. It was thick and had a green tinge.

So maybe these girls wanted to lock up their bikes. Maybe they were some cool ass chicks who bike around and they want them to be safe. Oh, or maybe the hip hop community has found a new type of metal thats green and expensive and they wear it as chains like the bike lock and so they call it kryptonite.

Yeah. I was wrong on every count. Kryptonite is weed. I had no clue. None. Zip. Zilch. Nada. So I listen for the video on MTV and the next time i saw it? The word kryptonite was edited. THat means that the corporate brass at major broadcasting stations are more intuned with shit than I am.

I’m going to go now. Make some tea. Possibly take nap. I get so tired so easily now a days.
