29 April 1977

Percy "Thrills" Thrillington releases his eponymous debut album on this date. The LP consists of big band reworking of Paul and Linda McCartney's Ram.

Little is known about Mr Thrillington*, aside from various newspaper clippings and the following sleeve notes, written by Clint Harrington^:

Percy ‘Thrills’ Thrillington was born in Coventry Cathedral in England in 1939. As a young man he wandered the globe. His travels took him to Baton Rouge, Louisiana in the US where he studied music for five years. He later moved to LA where he gained expertise in conducting and arranging as well as the marketing end of the music business. Eventually his path led to London where his lifelong ambition to form an orchestra was finally realized… he takes all the songs from Paul and Linda McCartney’s Ram album and, with the help of some of London’s best orchestra and ‘big band’ musicians, forges the pop music themes into new orchestral versions. He is assisted by Richard Newson [sic] who arranged and conducted. When McCartney heard what ‘Thrills’ was doing he even gave the project his seal of approval.

*Actually Paul McCartney

Remembering Charlie Chaplin who passed on Christmas Day 1977.

Charlie Chaplin led a long full and very eventful life - dying at the age of 88 Christmas Day 1977. It had many chapters and yes unfortunately scandals. He always stayed true to who he was - he did not go along to get along - this sometimes made life very difficult for him especially. when you consider the times he lived in.

Very favorite Charlie Chaplin quote:

“My Prodigious Sin, Was and still Is being a Non-Conformist”

“I Am What I Am: An Individual, Unique and Different"

(the complete quote is: “Like everyone else I am what I am: an individual, unique and different, with a lineal history of ancestral promptings and urgings; a history of dreams, desires, and of special experiences, all of which I am the sum total.”

[ 23 < cold ]

it wasn’t meant to end up like this. we weren’t meant to.

you promised me different.

though i always knew i would be the fractured in the end. i always knew but still let you take me.

and you took me over.

over and over.

and i let you. i needed you. and i need. still do.

but not like this. not when you look at me with grief in your beautiful eyes. it’s all my fault, i know.

i always wanted to break your heart.

and give you mine.

and you took it. and i washed in your warmth, kept my head above the water. and you held me tight because you always knew i can’t swim.

you used to take me dancing. you were my home. you still are. i crawl to you every time when it hurts too much, and you still open your arms for me. but your fire that always warmed me is now cold, pale and blue.

it doesn’t feel like home any more.

it’s cold, darling. you are here, but you are not with me. you promised me different.

i don’t know where i’m going without you. my guiding light. i’m drowning without your hands to hold me. i’m an arid desert. a november rain. an open window in february. i feel myself so awfully broken. scared. lost. sick.

yes, darling, i’m sick. lovesick. chronically. i caress the anguish aching in my chest, all my yearning. i want you back to heal my jaded heart.

i can’t sleep without your soothing voice comforting me. every time i close my eyes you go away again.

last night i called you in tears. you said you would come. and you did. you sat on the edge of my bed. i pleaded with you to take my hand. you didn’t. but you stayed. i cried. you didn’t say a word. i fell asleep.

in the morning i woke up alone. you were gone.

once you’ve told me you feel like you’re losing me. but i already lost you, my dear.

what are we now?

i can’t feel us any more.

Do y'all want to hear how I deduced Carlos' age using science? Yes, yes you do

You start off with one of the best pieces of info Finknor has ever given us, Charles being 41 in his debut (October 2018)

Being his double, Carlos is naturally the same age. Making him born in 1977 and turning 46 in the new year. But I can prove this, dear reader

18 years for regular school + 4 year bachelor's degree + 6 year doctorate of science from UofWII = 28 when he's done with school

He becomes a professor and teaches for the 7 years needed to earn a sabbatical, putting him at 35 in 2012. 41 - 6 = 35. Science.

#graduates high school in 1995 #bachelor's in 1999 #doctorate in 2005 #gets married at 39 #has Esteban at 40 #also i have decided their birthdays based off the canon zodiacs and some symbolism in birthstones and numbers #Esteban's is basically canonical jan 31st 2018 #Cecil's is feb 12th with no discernable year #and Carlos is April 25th 1977 #which is the day I'm seeing them in Detroit!!! #birthstone meaning real quick #amethyst!!! purple!!! #diamond: white like lab coat. beautiful. indestructible #also i think Esteban is a surrogate child and the timing makes it so Carlos asked to be a father for his birthday but shhh *skedaddles* #wtnv #carlos the scientist
