O.K……I fell asleep on the couch waiting for Ernie to come home. Dee Dee/Bob was asleep on top of me. The boys woke me up and told me to go to bed. I obediently got up, put the stew in the refrigerator, wrote a note for Ernie and went upstairs. The boys then decided that it was far too early to go to bed so I went to the computer. Leo was busy doing an inspection of some sort with markers stuck in the waistband of his underwear. Owen sat with me and looked at youtube. When I played this he turned and looked up at me and said, “Is he a superhero?”. I said, “uh, yes, he is actually.”
that Owen is really, really sharp about people. Amazing.
I may not be remembering this right at all, but didn’t one of those super-hip early 80s zines declare Klaus Nomi the “face of the 80s” just before he died of an AIDS related illness? I always thought that was very very meaningful. But then I may not be remembering it quite right.
I don’t know but it sounds plausible. I went through a BIG Klaus Nomi phase back in the 80’s but I haven’t really explored informatin about him online. There’s all sorts of stuff out there now.
I think Owen pegged him correctly….
