I think about a world to come where the books were found by the golden ones, written in pain, written in awe by a puzzled man who questioned, "What are we here for?" All the strangers came today and it looks as though they're here to stay.

Happy Morris Day


Today is Morris Day. Why? Two reasons: 1. Morris Day was born on this day 53 years ago, and 2. Morris Day Day is just plain redundant. My friend Stephan once said, "There's more to [Morris Day and] the Time than oh-wee oh-wee oh." This is the day where we explore the works of Morris Day, "Jungle Love" and beyond. It is a day for us to celebrate Morris Day. So, pop on Purple Rain and remember those killer Morris Day lines ("Your lips would make a lollipop too happy.") and be joyous today.

A wise man once said, "And should we win the day, the Thirteenth of December will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Morris Day!" (Did I get that quote right?)
