More Mistah T.

I have a good story actually about Mr. T and his motivational video mentioned in the last post. Some may know it, but I recently got an update on it's fate.

So, back in the days me and mine were terrorizing ebay (can anybody say floppy discs?) by creating multiple accounts, overbidding on pencils for $33,333, and a web of lie-based user feedback reviews that culminated in an amateur web-sleuth proclaiming, "I know Falco Johnson is the same as ScrotumShaver!" there was a video.

The aforementioned, Mister T. motivational video. You know the one that introduced the NEW group "New Edition" feat. Bobby Brown? Trever decided to buy it on VHS, which was still a viable format, and we watched and were captivated by the T's ability for poppin' and lockin', or lack thereof.

Here enters the friend, Meghan into the story. Her father is a high school teacher in The Dalles, Oregon. His role in the educational system is to teach kids the "life" class- about sex, drugs and perhaps rock and/or roll. He was given a copy of this video to show the kids, and instantly became a hit, and known as THE video.

Numerous plots of kidnapping said tape have been countered. Bribes of $100 have been declined. Guarded by a pair of former Navy Seals, the video remains under lock and key at all times of the day. Laser beams create an impenetrable grid of red light around the actual lock. Do not touch indeed.

Here is where the story has been updated: The T video has been transferred to Digital Video Disc, or DVD. This is great. Now the poor quality won't degrade further. I am happy, and now I await my copy for the future.

And for semi-related reasons, the van Morgan and I WILL rock on our "America The Beautiful" roadtrip.


BAD. ASS.

The NZ debut of this famed Mr T experience is eagerly awaited.

That van would score some hot chicks. Except they'd probably turn out to be terrorists or kidnappers or secret agents trying to perform a heist on Fort Knox or something. But it would be worth it.
