Hi,

I got into a band called the Ataris recently and being a long time VA/KS fan, I was over the moon to discover today the following lines in one of their songs (Up, Up, Down, Down.....)

"today was a good day.
I didn't even have to use my a.k.
at least I didn't get my heart broken anyway
wasting time in east new jersey.
guess I could tell you 'bout
the snow covered rooftops,
sunsets, shooting stars and picturesque backdrops.
or how I went and hung out at quick-stop
and pretended that I was in Clerks."

Don't you just love it when you find connections like that between the apparently unconnected things you really like
