UMS v3.1 - Which Is to Be the Master

[ReconGunner]

Stage 1
Cycle 4 of 4

Stage 1 complete.

Interesting item a couple of days ago. I spontaneously remembered a song from my younger days, one that I never bothered to put on any of my current playlists. The song is "Future's So Bright (I Gotta Wear Shades)", the sole hit from the band Timbuk 3. I looked the song up and watched the original video. From the video, the song appears to be a mockery of the ideas in the lyrics. The lyrics themselves, however, uphold the idea of an optimistic and unlimited future. Specific lines that originally came to me when I recalled the song:

"Things are going great, and they're only getting better..."
"I'm heavenly blessed and worldly wise..."

And of course, the chorus and title:
"My future's so bright, I gotta wear shades."

All coming unbidden to my conscious mind at the end of Stage 1 of UMS. This bodes well. Very well.

  Interesting indeed.  As a tenacious  tciousoptimist   BY  CHOICE, Two of MY favorites ,from that time period,are "Walking on Sunshine" BY Katrina & the Waves, as well as Steely Dan's "What a Beautiful world this will be"  (I.G.Y.)     For the young'un's that  werent born yet.... here ya go... this is what Im "tawkin' " 'Bout.....  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ueivjr3f8xg         https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmdiaQM43bk

"Walking on Sunshine" *is* on my playlists, and has been for a long time.
